Reviews.org, a company that tests products and tries out services, is looking to crown the "2021 Digital Detox Challenger."

Participants will receive a $200 Amazon gift card to put together a techless 24-hour survival kit. Think of it this way: a typewriter to replace your laptop, writing stationery to replace emails or text messages and books to replace social media scrolling.

"We’re looking for someone who is definitely into tech but willing to challenge themselves," the company said.

After storing your devices in a safe, the company wants participants to provide feedback on the experience and review their techless 24-hour survival kit.
