Welcome to ryankillackey.com
Hi, I’m Elijah Grayson — and I’m truly glad you’re here. This little corner of the internet started as a hobby and grew into a space where curiosity meets everyday practicality.
After years working in the audio-visual field, helping schools, offices, and homeowners choose the right setup, I learned one thing that’s never changed: good products make life easier when they actually do what they promise.
Today, I live in a quiet riverside town in Oregon with my family, where weekends often mean hiking, fixing things around the house, and trying out new gadgets that make home life smoother.
What you’ll find here isn’t sponsored hype — it’s real-world experience from someone who’s spent years wiring, installing, testing, and troubleshooting the kind of tech most people use every day.

How This Journey Began
Back in 2025, I decided to turn my experience into something more personal. I was constantly testing speakers, projectors, and smart-home devices for friends, giving them the kind of advice I wished I could find online — honest, simple, and backed by real use. That’s when this blog was born.
Here, I share detailed product reviews, setup insights, and buying advice that come from living with the products, not just unboxing them. I focus on how they perform after weeks or months of use — because that’s when you really know if something’s worth your money.
What You’ll Find Here
ryankillackey.com is a space built for readers who value authenticity. You’ll find product reviews across home entertainment, small-space living, and smart-home solutions — all tested, experienced, and written in plain English. Whether you’re setting up your first streaming setup or upgrading your home sound system, my goal is to make your buying decisions easier, clearer, and a bit more enjoyable.
I want every visitor here to feel welcome, informed, and confident. If you ever have a question, a product suggestion, or just want to share your own experience, reach out — I love hearing from readers.

I’m Elijah Grayson, a lifelong tech enthusiast turned product reviewer living in the peaceful riverside town of Oregon. For over a decade, I worked in the audio-visual industry, setting up smart home systems, projectors, and entertainment equipment for schools and homeowners. My hands-on experience taught me that good products aren’t about the biggest claims but the smallest details that make daily life easier. I hold a degree in Media Technologies and Communications, which helped me bridge my love for technology with practical, everyday problem-solving.
In 2025, I decided to bring that knowledge online through ryankillackey.com — a space where honest reviews meet real-world insights. Every article I write is based on products I’ve actually used and lived with, not just tested for a day. I believe in transparency, simplicity, and helping readers feel confident before they buy. When I’m not writing or testing gadgets, you’ll find me hiking, fixing something around the house, or enjoying quiet evenings with my family.
