Road warriors will be able to tell you that after spending a fair number of years living out of a suitcase, it can get rather tiring at the end of it all, and there is nothing better than to just sit back, relax and enjoy both your family and friends in the comfort of your own home. However, someone needs to bring home the bacon and if you have been tasked to do so, perhaps it would be prudent to make sure that you do not end up tardy in your dealings at the office. Forget about relying on the hotel’s wake-up call – you might want to settle for the $39.99 Travel Alarm Clock with Dual LED Flashlight instead.

As its name suggests, the Travel Alarm Clock with Dual LED Flashlight will not only be able to help you get out of bed with its incessant ringing, it is also a useful tool to have by the bedside in the middle of the night when you need to light up your surroundings. Say that you are looking for pair of slippers, instead of turning on the bedroom lights and disturbing your other half, you can always use the dual LED flashlight on this device. It features telling you the current time, day, date and temperature, comes with an easy-to-set alarm with snooze function and has a subtle blue backlight and built-in LED flashlight. All of it are powered by a quartet of AAA batteries.

When it comes to watches and interesting timepieces, there are many different models out there in the market for you to pick from. The thing is, which particular model would be the most suitable one for you? It really depends on a whole lot of factors, ranging from your budget to your personality as well as needs. One thing is for sure though, Casio, through the years, have always proved their G-SHOCK range of watches to be worthy of their calling, coming in a rugged form factor that is more than capable of handling their fair share of knocks, drops, and tumbles, and they continue to work. The Japanese company has recently unveiled a new collection of entirely modern watches that will feature an all-over coating of a classic tiger and woodland camouflage prints in order to match the rough-and-ready nature of the watches. Do expect this camo series by G-SHOCK to be introduced to the masses in two waves later this spring.

The first watch of the two that will appear would be the XL GDX6900CM, where it sports a multi-angle tiger camo printed case, band and dial, and will arrive in two colorways: tan and grey. There is an emphasis on superior performance and unrivaled functionality, where the GDX6900CM sports a 10-year battery and auto Super Illuminator LED light for high visibility under low-light conditions. In addition, other functions include a trio of multi-function alarms, 1/100th stopwatch, countdown timer, 12/24-hour time formats and 48-city world time. You will also be able to enjoy G-SHOCK’s legendary 200M water and shock resistant structure with this bad boy, where it has also achieved a shock resistance passing military standard, MIL-STD-810G.

As for the other timepiece, it would be the GD120CM, as it comes in a new formidable case design that has a 7-year battery while wearing a woodland camouflage multi-angle print. It has a large case size of 51.2mm, and yet carries the entire range of functionality as the GDX6900CM, where you can choose from red, tan and grey shades. The camouflage GDX6900CM men’s watches will retail for $150 a pop, while the camouflage GD120CM men’s watches will retail for $130 from next month onward.

Could 2014 be the year of the smartwatch? It very well could be, really, if recent developments are anything to go by. With Google dropping an announcement on their Android Wear platform, here we are with Motorola jumping aboard the smartwatch bandwagon with one of their creations that they have called the Moto 360. The Moto 360 happens to be a timepiece that not only looks good, but it also feels great as it provides you with the kind of information that you need, as and when required.

I suppose you can more or less call the Moto 360 a truly modern timepiece, although it still has a long way to go before it is lumped under the complex timepieces that are created by the likes of Breitling and Rolex. The Moto 360 is designed by Motorola and powered by Android Wear, where it will be able to keep you on time as well as up to date without taking you out of the moment or distracting you. In fact, some might even think of it as sentient to a certain extent, as the Moto 360 is capable of telling you just what you need to know prior to you knowing it yourself via subtle alerts and notifications.

A simple twist of the wrist would allow you to check out just who is the one sending you an email or dropping a phone call, in addition to what time your next meeting at the office is, or to check out a friend’s latest social post. The Moto 360 is also subservient to your voice, where all you need to do is say “Ok Google” and you can fire away questions for it to get stuff done including the likes of scheduling an appointment, sending a text, setting an alarm or taking a note. It remains to be seen just how Motorola will price the Moto 360, but exciting times are ahead of us!

The Oscar Mayer brand intends to introduce something new to the world for the first time ever with a unique iOS device that will enable those who wake up early in the morning to the wonderful smell of bacon, all without having to even lift a frying pan, not to mention avoiding having to clean up the kitchen afterwards from all the oil slicks that have formed along the walls and stove.

There might not be any free lunch in the world, but surely the free smell of bacon first thing in the morning is worth a shot!

Don’t you wish that you had magical powers to exhibit and impress those who decide to pay your home a visit? Sure, you might not be a new tycoon who has just cashed out big time because Google or Facebook decided to buy your company and intellectual property for a few billion dollars, so you lack the financial resources to model your home after a high tech space installation that is really “smart” in a sense, such as voice controlled temperature and the like. Perhaps something more basic and of course, affordable, might be right up your alley – like the €37.79 Clap-On Alarm Clock.

No matter how much you have partied the night before, there is still an office to go to the next morning, not to mention plenty of work to finish up.

The Clap-On Alarm Clock will feature a red LED panel that will reveal itself only when you clap. Sporting 12 as well as 24 hour formats, the cube clock sports a chic wood veneer which would perfectly complement any interior. It might just impress your date, too.
