Friday: Kaloc TWS for $10 + S&H

Unlike the elitist and pretentious audiophile/audiophool blogs, we cover all kinds of headphones, including single figure ones. Which brings us to the September 1st (2023) Meh daily deal, it’s the new condition Kaloc TWS truly wireless going for $9.99 plus shipping. If you are a paying Meh member, you get free shipping.

Despite the low price, they come with bluetooth 5, USB-C and the charging case can theoretically [I haven’t seen or used them] provide five full refills.

The Meh website points to the PulseTV 2-minute overview of these, YouTube-embedded below.
