They do cost more than this product though.
Gyroscopic Screwdriver My brother in law in a general contractor and raved about his new gyroscopic screwdriver a couple years ago. I bought one last month and it's easily the best thing I've bought this year. Under $100 and it's truly a must have. I have the dewalt one, not sure if any other brands make em. https://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DCF682N1-Gyroscopic-Inline-Scr...
Audiophile IEMs: there's a lot of stuff under the 200€ mark that can make your ears feel previously undiscovered levels of joy. And if you're listening to music a lot of time, this is a damn good investment. Truthear and Moondrop have a lot of interesting affordable options.
Acoustic panels: if you play music on speakers a lot, getting your room to sound drier can really make you discover new levels of detail. Just don't buy the cheapest polyuretane ones, as they only cause random dips in mid freqs.
Smart watch/band: Nothing too fancy, just anything that can notify me of stuff so I can keep my phone away and avoid picking it up to read a simple text message.
a 3-in-1 wireless charging pad for $30 from amazon to put on my bedside table. now I wake up with my phone at 100% every time!
3M Peltor Premium Plus Earmuffs X3A https://www.3m.co.uk/3M/en_GB/p/d/v101190004/ They're light, stylish and work amazing. The world quiets down and it's (way, way) easier to go into the flow.
I'll add my own: prescription sunglasses. Game changer.
Aster ( https://www.ibik.ru/ ) Surprisingly functional multiseat for windows. Lifetime license 50-100 for 2 seats depending on region. Partner's computer went kaput, and used this + steamlink to turn monitor into another computer. I see people online using this to play two seperate games on different "seats". Was planning to get seperate media centre PC, but this worked so well I ended up using money to upgrade PC co…
It is a shame Windows gates this behind their business edition(s) as it could really cut down on waste, especially now that streaming is becoming practical. I recall trying this with Linux and it worked reasonably well.
A sous vide machine. It's just a fancy stick that circulates water at a precise temperature, but it makes the most delicious and tender chicken and fish that you'll ever make at home. You can start it in the morning and leave it going while you're out. Then dump the contents into a frying pan for a minute or two to sear the outside, and lunch/dinner is ready. You do need a vacuum sealer, but the total investment is l…
> You do need a vacuum sealer, No, you don't, zip-top bags with the excess air pushed out by water pressure and sealing after most of the bag is submerged work quite well.
My workflow these days is to buy a bunch of meat from Costco, then repackage it into portions with seasoning and throw it all in the freezer for later. In that case, removing all the air helps not just with buoyancy, but also with freezer burn.

What’s the biggest improvement in your experience versus a more traditional setup? (Either over-ear with standalone mic or in-ear buds etc). Never tried bone conduction!
