The first thing I always do is figure out if I can even test the item, if not then I dont apply, next, can I make it interesting for others, I dont like to just regurgitate the spec sheet (Something I see all too often)
even if the item has no real value to me (I can't use it beyond the test) I will still consider it if I can test it in a meaningful way, this is a way to give back and also good practice in producing content so I get to improve over time. not every test can be a fancy oscilloscope or other expensive item, take the low cost items with as much enthusiasm as the expensive.
Oh and also, Do I have time to perform the road test, if not then also dont apply
