The Best Tech Under
$15 v3.0! #Helpful Post
hey
guys johnathan here and welcome back
to
a fresh episode of the best tech
under-15
now finding gadgets and
accessories
are at the very least good
ones
under 15 bucks is a bit of a
challenge
but after searching and
scouring
the interweb these are some
good
ones so first off is a magnetic
lightning
cable from smart right on if
you're
familiar with how MagSafe works
on
a macbook charger that is bringing
that
functionality to your phone in this
case
I am showcasing the iPhone version
but
there also is a comparable microUSB
version
which I will also link below so
how
it works is there's a small tip that
you
insert in your phone and this is
meant
to stay there now normally yanking
the
cable out of your phone is not
something
you want to do but in this
case
it just pops right off a couple
cool
things with this is that it's not
just
for power and for charging but it
also
supports data transfer as well
there's
a pretty cool LED light towards
the
bottom to let you know the cable is
active
and most importantly it functions
as
advertised it did scare me a bit to
test
this out with a non magnetic cable
but
for science I did and it was nowhere
near
as pretty the only downside is not
going
to work with your existing cables
and
if you lose that piece you're kind
of
out of luck but the fact that is not
crazy
expensive and more than anything
it
works extremely well I would totally
pick
one up now keeping the magnetic
accessory
train rolling next up is the
Clube
cable keeper which is also
extremely
useful these come in packs of
three
and small and large these being
large
which do work with bigger bulkier
cables
like this but for reference here
is
how it will work with a pair of
earbuds
and if you look closely there's
a
little insert where you put the
headphone
jack in and what that's going
to
do is ensure you don't lose the
little
guy because it is really tiny
clearly
the large set is not ideal for
earbuds
if you're looking to use these
for
that specific reason I would
definitely
grab it small but in my case
where
I'm using them for a longer
bulkier
cable or in this case an SSD the
large
set works fantastic I've messed
with
cable ties before and really
haven't
found one that I've liked but I
think
what separates this is how easy it
is
to use because of the magnets
following
that next up is the alkie mini
five
thousand milliamp hour external
battery
yes there are a ton of external
battery
banks out there but this one
stood
up to me for a couple reasons one
it's
extremely compact - the price -
battery
capacity is killer this is ten
bucks
right now
and
usually lipstick style chargers this
size
or anywhere from 15 to three
thousand
milliamp hour
but
this one smashes those and finally
three
they come in some damn cool color
options
six them total and you can see
the
blue here really really pops because
I
know someone out there is going to ask
the
blue USB cable that I'm using with
the
Chargers from anchor and this is the
answer
for those of you out there who
have
dealt with this so drop a like of
you're
tired of Apple lightning cables
explode
and if you look at them the
wrong
way because the idea with this one
here
from anchor is not only is it extra
long
at ten feet but it's super high
quality
using Kevlar fiber which makes
it
much more resistant to everyday wear
and
tear not just like the magnetic
lightning
cable earlier this does also
come
in a microUSB very and that of
course
will also be linked down below
now
when it comes to ear pods I must be
one
of the few people out there where
they
actually fit very well because I
hear
a ton of people say they fall out
and
if that happens to be you last up is
a
$10 fix called ear hooks so with this
you
actually get two pairs small and
large
to accommodate different ear sizes
and
how they work is extremely simple
you
slide these onto your ear pods and
then
from there that kind of hook into
your
ears allowing for a much more
secure
fit now most you may know us and
Evans
for extreme sitting
but
in this case he's putting the ear
hooks
through his patented head cocked
test
as you can see it passed that test
with
flying colors
so
maybe you like how ear pods sound but
not
how they fit this is a pretty solid
and
expensive solution to fix that
without
having to buy entirely new ear
buds
on top of that if you're active or
you
use your ear pod at the gym these
are
almost a must buy but aside from
that

lastly
before I hop out of here I want
