2025 Annual Holiday Gadget Gift Guide

It’s that time of year again. Halloween is over, and November is here.  Which means that it’s also time for our annual Holiday Gadget Gift Guide.  Some family and loved ones are easy to shop for, and for others we need a little help.  Hopefully we can provide some assistance with that.  Below are products that could be a great gift, with their description of what they are and a link to the review or the schedule when to come back for the review.

 

Family and friends are an important part of our lives.  If you like to entertain, music is an important part of the party.  And sometimes a small Bluetooth speaker just won’t cut it.  You need something bigger for those outdoor venues and when there are a lot of people involved.  The Fender X Teufel Rockstar Air 2 could be exactly what you need.  Check out its review here:

Life can be stressful. Somehow, music can help with that.  And if your car speakers are either starting to fail, or don’t sound as good as you would like, it could be time for a replacement.  Harman Kardon has a great sounding direct fit factory speaker replacement in their FIT6CF and FIT6F. It could be just the thing to put a smile on the face of a loved one. Check out its review here:

Electronics has found its way into a lot of the products we use.  Even with gun safes, many use biometrics for ease of access.  The Headrest Company, has brought that feature into a gun safe for our vehicles.  Now you have a nice safe that is well hidden, that can be used for a gun or any other valuables.  Check back here for the review scheduled for the week ending 12/14/25.

 

There’s a lot of bass heads out there.  I like a lot of bass myself, especially in my car.  But sometimes you may not have much space for a subwoofer.  If you have a loved one who is always using their trunk, but would love to be able to have more bass, Infinity can help.  The Infinity Reference 1000SSL 10-inch car passive subwoofer with passive radiator could put a big smile on their face.

I like to take my music on the go.  Whether its by the pool, or up in the mountains while camping, JBL has a wireless speaker for you.  One of their biggest of portables is the JBL Boombox 3.  It plays loud, but is also waterproof.  So no matter the location or weather, your tunes can continue.  If you have a loved one who enjoys the same, this could be perfect for them.  Check out the review here:

I love my music.  But not only that, I like it loud!  If you have a loved one who fits that bill, their factory car radio may not be providing the power their speakers need.  In this scenario, a separate amplifier could be what’s needed.  JBL makes a great one with their JBL Club A758 High Performance Class D 8 Channel Car Amplifier.  Check out its review here:

PowerBass is known for their subwoofers, but they also have a great portable boombox.  It’s smaller, yet is till big on sound.  With its passive radiators it even provides good bass.  The waterproof feature makes it easy to take anywhere. Add to it the built-in power bank feature, and it has excellent usability.  You can even link two of them together for true wireless stereo sound.  Check back here for the review scheduled for the week ending 11/30/25.

 

For many decades, we have gotten accustomed to electricity.  It powers just about everything. But there are times when the power does go out.  Many of us may not think about it, but there are a lot of preppers that do.  If you know someone who falls into that group, the Romoss X1000 Portable Power Station and BE1000 Expansion Battery Pack could be perfect for them.  Check out its review here:

Many of us like a lot of bass in our music.  And then, some people can take that love for bass to a whole new level of loud!  All that bass requires a lot of power, and many amps aren’t up to the task.  If you have a loved one who would love more sub power, Sundown Audio has the answer in their SALT-2 sub amp.  Its review is found here:

Music is not always about the bass.  Some of us like all of the sound really loud.  If your loved one likes premium sound quality, but also play it loud enough so everyone around can also enjoy it, Sundown Audio has a solution.  It’s a great sounding factory speaker system replacement that not only sounds great, it does so while playing really loud.  Its their SA-6.5CXv2 and SA-6.5CSv3 factory upgrade speaker system.  Check out its review here:

So many of us do a lot of shopping on Amazon.  Package deliveries are getting much more popular.  Whether you want to see who is at your door, or you want to watch over packages that were delivered, a video doorbell could be just what your loved one could use.  And the Swann SwannBuddy 4K Video Doorbell could be the perfect solution.  Check out its review here:

Torras Coolify Cyber Neck Air Conditioner.  Just as the product name states, it’s a portable air conditioner that you wear around your neck.  It provides heat in the winter, cold air in the summer, or a fan for those slightly warm periods.  If you know someone who loves to travel, this could be perfect for them.  After all, the weather at some of our planned destinations could be less than ideal for us.

Smart Watches are getting more and more popular.  They do so much for us.  Sometimes you’re busy and can’t answer a text or phone call.  But just a glance at your watch could tell you if it’s something that can’t wait.  But some of these smart watches aren’t very dressy.  The Withings ScanWatch Nova Brilliant is a really classy looking dress watch, but manages to also have a digital display on the face.  It even has medical grade sensors.  It could be a perfect gift for that loved one who likes to look sharp.  Check out its review here:
