Gadgets: Portable espresso machine

on

Published in Science & Technology News

Coffee lovers, meet your new best friend, the OutIn Nano portable espresso machine. It redefines coffee on the go. You can use it for home, work, vacations or camping. Whenever or wherever you want a hot cup, turn it on and brew barista-quality espresso.

The thermos measures 9 inches high by 3 inches round and has a 7,500 mAh USB-C rechargeable battery inside. It holds up to 80 milliliters of water, with the standard of espresso being 50 milliliters. A single battery charge will brew 3-5 cups with cold water and more than 200 cups if you use boiling water.

Water is put in through the bottom, and the top cap functions as a coffee cup and unscrews to expose the area coffee is put in. Each brew needs 6 to 8 grams of fine ground coffee, or you can use Nespresso, L'OR, Jacobs, Lavazza, Kimbo or Cafe Royal capsules. OutIn recommend L'OR capsules. For a stronger cup with up to 16 to 18 grams of ground coffee, you can purchase the OutIn Nano Basket Plus ($39.99).

Once the battery is charged and the Nano is filled with coffee and water, 50 milliliters of water will heat up in a little over three minutes, and then it will brew. Cleaning is done with a sponge and detergent. Outln cautions against using boiling water to wash the fuselage shell; otherwise, it will fade.

The Baseus Nomos Qi2 8-in-1 slim charging station has it all and allows charging up to eight devices simultaneously.

Right out of the box, I noticed an excellent design with the included 5-foot AC power cord before anything was set to charge. It has a space-saving right-angle AC prong, ideal for tight areas. The charger has a flip-up Qi2 15-watt MagSafe charger and a USB-C port for a wired 67-watt fast laptop charging. There are two additional USB-C ports and a single USB-A port, and on top there are three standard AC ports. The Qi2 charger can be angled up to 60 degrees.

While the $59.99 charger can charge multiple devices, power is dispensed depending on what and how many devices are connected. For example, using a single USB-C will provide 45 watts and 12 watts to the USB-A while using them together. The 8-in-1 charger also protects devices from issues such as power surges causing over-voltage, overcurrent and short circuits.

Baseus’s Nomos Qi2 5-in-1 desktop charger can supply up to 140 watts of power. The included 5-foot AC power cord has a right-angle prong, and the Qi2 15-watt MagSafe charger flips up.

 

The $119.98 5-in-1 charger also provides safe charging and includes protection from overheating and short circuit protection. On top is a charging display with a simple charging status and detailed charging status displays.

Nank has launched a new headset for active lifestyles: the Runner Diver 2 Pro open-ear bone conduction Bluetooth V5.4 headphones.

The growing market of open-ear headphones allows you to listen to music while still hearing your surroundings. I tested the headsets during some low-stress neighborhood walks and full days of yard work, and they shined in every aspect.

They have a waterproof rating of IP69 for water resistance of up to 10 meters deep. Each open-ear speaker is attached to a flexible neckband, and while you can’t use Bluetooth underwater, the headset features 32 GB of storage in MP3 player mode. Its dual-mode design will also allow the switching of 35-degree adjustable ear hooks between open-ear modes and noise-canceling modes.

You’ll get about 10 hours of playback before a charge is needed. A 10-minute charge will produce 120 minutes of use. Earplugs are also included.
