Gadget power is a variable; you can't control it the way you can with a spell. Even a high-level gadgeteer with good skills can have a low result on using an item. Stamina may also play a part here (i.e. the more gadgets are used in the fight they less they do because the Gadgeteer is tiring), but I'm not certain about that.
Bard music is much the same.
