Ten years of buying tech and telling you what I actually think. Nothing sent to me free. No sponsors. Some links earn a commission.

I built something new and you're the first group I'm asking

I never stopped buying and testing stuff, but it's been a long time since my last email. Here's what you missed:

Oura Ring 4 vs. Whoop 5.0: My pick flipped after a year with both

Is Peloton Still Worth It?: After 1,100 rides, the math isn't that bad

Eight Sleep Pillow Cover: The only pillow I've ever stopped flipping

Eight Sleep Blanket: The $1,200 add-on you should probably skip

Still in progress: See what I'm testing right now

Housekeeping: the Power Moves blog now lives at sterp.com/reviews. Same reviews, just a new domain. I still buy everything myself, no sponsors.

Those reviews above live inside Sterp, a thing I built for a problem I've had forever: one page that shows everything I actually use, with a real photo and an honest take on each. It's not a wishlist or a storefront. Just my stuff with my opinions.

Mine's here: sterp.com/cam

If you've ever wondered what's actually in my gym, on my desk, or in my coffee stack, this is the page.

I've been building this for a few months and showing it to almost nobody. You're the first group I'm actually asking to build a page, because you followed my work before I built Sterp and you probably care about this stuff more than most.

You don't need a big collection or any kind of audience. All you need is one thing you own that you have an unusually strong opinion on: sterp.com/signup

The best early pages go on sterp.com/discover, which is where I'll be pointing new visitors.

When you make a page, reply with the link and any honest feedback. I'll read every page.

Thanks,

Cam

I'm Cam. I've been buying tech with my own money and writing about it since 2016. No sponsorships, no free products, no filter. I started with smart home gear and mesh routers, but these days I review anything that catches my attention, mostly fitness trackers and sleep tech. If something's great, I'll say so. If it's overpriced garbage, I'll say that too.
