BLUETTI AC70 Power Station drops to an all-time low price

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-23 02:24:38

I am a big fan of these “relatively portable” power stations. Their place in the market is solidifying right between the ultra-portable and the ultra-high-capacity models. You can easily take them places, but they are pretty powerful. If you’re looking for one of these middle-of-the-ground batteries, there’s currently a really nice sale on the BLUETTI AC70 Portable Power Station. Buy the BLUETTI AC70 Portable Power Station for just $328.99 ($270.01 off) This offer is available from Amazon, but

ADXL345 Die Analysis

The ADXL345 is a MEMS accelerometer made by Analog Devices. It’s a popular device among hobbyists because of its low cost, easy availability and rich feature set. But apparently you should be careful about where you buy them: one of my readers ended up with a bunch of ADXL345s that had significant offsets, measurement axes that didn’t work at all, and an inoperative freefall detection mode. After spending lots of time trying to get them to work, he decided to send them to me instead and hopefull

A rare look inside the durability lab where Apple tortures its products

Apple puts its products through a lot of tests during the development process, intended to ensure they have a long and reliable life even in challenging conditions. The company tests at least 10,000 iPhones prior to launch in an attempt to cover all the bases. It’s not often the iPhone maker lets outsiders into its labs, but Apple invited some of those attending WWDC 2025 to visit one to see for themselves the conditions it expects its gadgets to survive … To be clear, it’s not the first time

Ready-made stem cell therapies for pets could be coming

Earlier this week, San Diego startup Gallant announced $18 million in funding to bring the first FDA-approved ready-to-use stem cell therapy to veterinary medicine. If it passes regulatory muster, it could create a whole new way to treat our fur babies. It’s still an experimental field, even though people have been researching stem cells for humans for decades. Seven-year-old Gallant’s first target is a painful mouth condition in cats called Feline Chronic Gingivostomatitis (FCGS), which Gallan

It lives in a crystalline space between intention and execution, where every word is precisely chosen, every brushstroke deliberate, every note inevitable, but only in your mind.

Sony’s got an Xperia 1 VII problem so bad, it had to temporarily halt sales

TL;DR Sony has halted sales and shipments of the Xperia 1 VII in its native Japan. Affected phones spontaneously reset, and may refuse to turn back on. Right now we have no confirmation that there’s any problem with the Xperia 1 VII outside of Japan. For a major electronics company, there’s probably no brand whose smartphones are more of niche product than Sony’s. While we’ve had Xperia phones going back to the early days of Android, Xperia handsets have never really taken off in the US. But

You now have less than three months to act. The tax credit officially expires on September 30, 2025.

Marvel Comics is no stranger to a bit of brand synergy and consolidation.
