About the creator
Hi, I'm Pat. I make technology easier to understand.
TechManPat is an independent Australian technology channel built around hands-on testing, curious experiments and plain-English explanations.
The channel
Useful before impressive.
I'm Patryk Lazarz, based in Perth, Western Australia. I started TechManPat because I enjoy pulling technology apart—sometimes literally—to work out what is useful, what is marketing, and what people should know before spending their money.
The channel covers consumer technology, home energy, batteries, NBN and telco, robot mowers and vacuums, smart-home products and the Australian tech stories that deserve a closer look. The Dirt Report turns the messier news into something you can actually follow.
Reviews are based on real use. Opinions are my own, commercial relationships are disclosed, and the goal is always to give viewers enough context to make up their own minds.
The channel is now the front door to a wider TechManPat ecosystem: Labs turns videos into searchable research, Compare helps Australians choose the right product, and Vault keeps the receipts and warranties once they own it.
Collaborations
Work with TechManPat.
TechManPat works with technology brands, Australian distributors, PR teams and independent makers on reviews, sponsored integrations, explainers and longer-term product stories.
The best fit is a product with something worth testing or a story worth explaining. Sending the product name, timing, Australian availability and the outcome you have in mind makes it easier to assess quickly.
