Every week, Boss Hunting’s editors spend far too much time scouring the web: in search of the coolest gear, food & drink deals, and destinations worth trekking to across the globe.
In this week’s edition of Good Finds, we’ve got the devastatingly attractive Audio-Technica AT-LPA2 turntable, the Wuyang-Honda E-Vo electric bike, DJI’s new portable power station, and more.

Audio-Technica AT-LPA2 Turntable
There’s a joke providing “crystal-clear sound” somewhere here with this transparent acrylic beauty.
Hailed as the “finest turntable Audio-Technica has ever developed” with the specific intention of revealing analogue audio’s purity, the AT-LPA2 is a fully manual belt-drive turntable that combines contemporary aesthetics with retro expertise, while remaining “incredibly easy to set up and use.”
“We designed the AT-LPA2 to minimise resonance, which can cause noise and distortion in the signal chain, while maximising detailed audio reproduction of your vinyl records with crystal-clear accuracy,” explains Audio-Technica.
“Not only is the acrylic stunning, it is also an ideal material for turntable construction, greatly reducing reverberations that might otherwise affect sound clarity.”
Coming soon to a bachelor pad near you…
Wuyang-Honda E-Vo Electric Bike
Full disclosure: we don’t have all that much to say about this one. We just thought it looked cool.
Wuyang-Honda’s inaugural all-electric bike houses either a dual or triple-motor system. The dual variant is capable of a 68 MPH top speed and max range of 75 miles, while the triple variant tops out at 75 MPH with a 105-mile range. Speed, range, and direction are displayed on the Wi Link touchscreen dashboard.
There’s also an integrated charger compatible with both household outlets and EV charging stations to keep things nice and simple. For the time being, it’s only available exclusively in China.
DJI Power 2000 (Portable Power Station)
For those of you who like to go off-grid (or just slightly off the beaten track), DJI has launched the Power 2000 – a compact, high-capacity solution ideal for home backup during those blackout periods, camping, road trips, and if you’re anything like us, content production.
With a whopping 2,048Wh capacity and support for 3,000W continuous output, it can essentially power 99% of household appliances and recharge devices like phones, laptops, as well as drones multiple times. Handily enough, it also recharges to 80% in just 45 minutes (75 minutes for 100%) wherever works best for you (and all the way up to 22,528Wh with expansion batteries).
Despite everything it packs, the Power 2000 remains compact (32.6L) and portable, though it’s admittedly dense, with ultra-quiet operation (29dB) and a rugged, flame-retardant design. Additionally, it supports grid, solar, car, and hybrid charging, with advanced safety features like 26 temperature sensors, 21 fuses, plus an intelligent battery management system.
There’s even a UPS function, switching to battery power in 0.01 seconds during outages.
The DJI Home app, on the other hand, enables remote control and monitoring, and extensive accessories like fast chargers and expansion batteries enhance flexibility; while the lithium ferro phosphate battery ensures up to 10 years of daily use.
Netflix x NASA+
Netflix has partnered with NASA to livestream jaw-dropping content from outer space. Real-time views from the International Space Station (ISS), spacewalks, ignition-sequence-go rocket launches… You name it. All soon be accessible from your streaming queues.
“Our Space Act of 1958 calls on us to share our story of space exploration with the broadest possible audience,” explains Rebecca Sirmons, General Manager of NASA+.
“Together, we’re committed to a Golden Age of Innovation and Exploration – inspiring new generations – right from the comfort of their couch or in the palm of their hand from their phone.”
It all kicks off in the coming weeks. You’ll find NASA+ live feeds in the Netflix interface alongside your favourite movies and shows. But if you don’t want to wait that long, head to the NASA app and NASA.gov right now to experience NASA+ for free.
Reebok Aztec II
Our good friends at Reebok Australia recently sent us a hot pair of new kicks and we’re all about ’em.
Straight from the vault and reimagined for today, the Aztec II taps into Reebok’s running legacy with every detail: nylon-sueded uppers as a retro throwback to that classic track style, a durable rubber outsole to keep things grounded. and reliable performance all-round.
It’s the delicious essence of Reebok’s 80s archive with the assurance that you’ll get where you need to go.
