LED Fireworks Grand Finale – all the fun, minus the fire risk

led-fireworksSome countries such as the city state of Singapore in South East Asia has banned the playing of fireworks by the public, although this does not mean that there will be no fireworks show in Singapore, although the ones that you see will be sanctioned by the government. I suppose if folks living in countries like that, the $39.95 LED Fireworks Grand Finale might be the ideal purchase for those who would love to enjoy some fancy fireworks – minus the risk of any fire, of course.

The LED Fireworks Grand Finale happens to be a kit that offers young showmasters all that they require to safely put on dazzling choreographed indoor LED fireworks displays. It results in whirling green phosphorus-like sprays, needle-like orange rays of flame, and globular melanges of red, blue, and orange that is guaranteed to wow the crowd, and there will also be five decorated paper fireworks cones with battery-powered LED nodes which produce various colored light patterns when “fired.” A wireless master control box “live” mode would let each cone to be fired individually, or you can always opt to have all five of it fired simultaneously. Just make sure the half dozen AA batteries that run the LED Fireworks Grand Finale are fully juiced up beforehand.

plugdockHave you heard of Fuse Chicken before? They happen to be the ones behind the insanely popular Une Bobine, and their latest creation would be the togoDock.

Not only that, the togoDock would also boast of an integrated charge cable that allows you to deliver power on-the-go, making it a whole lot more handy than you originally expected. .

As the owner of a togoDock, you will be able to mount it in a couple of methods. The first of the two ways would be to place it straight onto a magnetic surface, while for all of the other surfaces that you want the togoDock to be mounted on, you can always make use of the pair of included self-adhesive disc mounts that will double up as a magnetic surface, allowing it to cling to togoDock’s embedded magnets. The togoDock also comes with a built-in backstop for extra stability and support, a MFI certified Lightning Connector for iPhone 5S/5C/5, a cable cord wrap outfitted with a standard USB for charging, and a car adapter which would come in handy for those who are constantly driving around.

Right now, the togoDock is part of an Indiegogo campaign, where the first 200 backers will be on the receiving end of a 3D-printed PLUGdock that will convert an Apple iPhone charging cord into an outlet-mounted dock. Reserving one on Indiegogo would cost you $30 a pop.

This does away with (or rather, minimizes the occurrence of) any typos since the micro-scissors will be able to distribute pressure evenly across the key surfaces, allowing each quiet keystroke that is made to be 100% correct all the time. Theoretically speaking, of course, although I am quite sure that test and focus groups for the Rapoo E2700 would have agreed to such an assessment before the company is able to make such a claim.

Apart from that, the touchpad that is located on the right side of the keys would be placed where the mouse is supposed to be normally, ensuring you get to enjoy full media control with just one single swipe of a finger. It would be nice if there were to be a left handed version of this keyboard though, otherwise southpaws like me will just have to adapt – as usual.

Expect the Rapoo E2700 multimedia wireless keyboard to come with a tiny and unobtrusive nano USB receiver, allowing you to have it remain plugged into your device’s USB port all the time, as it operates on a 2.4GHz wireless frequency with a 360 degree range as well as a maximum of 10 meters of working range.

Fuel is the world’s smallest phone charger

fuelThe modern day road warrior has one particular device that he or she carries around all the time – the smartphone (or a regular feature phone in some cases). This is one scenario which cannot be avoided at all, and there are moments when you actually forget to juice up your handset, which could prove to be disastrous in certain situations. Well, this would mean one should be better prepared, and what better way to do so than with the £24.99 Fuel, a device that has been dubbed to be the smallest phone charger in the world?

Just how small is Fuel anyway? We are talking about being tiny enough that you do not even need to worry about taking up additional space in your luggage, since you can stuff it into your pants pocket without it bulging out at a mere 3.3cm x 2.3cm x 1.3cm. Of course, at that size, it will not be able to deliver hours of video viewing on your smartphone, but rather, it caters more for delivering enough juice to carry out a conversation to close that multi-million dollar deal. We are looking at maybe half an hour of much needed talk time, tops. The Fuel portable phone charger is made out of die-cast aluminum with miniature jerry-can features to make it resemble as though you are pouring real petrol into the handset’s “gas tank”.

Doctor Who R/C Flying TARDIS is a must have for Dr. Who fans

rc-flying-tardisIf you are an avid fan of the Dr. Who series, you would most probably have your fair share of DVDs (special editions and the rest of the regular airports) as well as merchandise in your home, but there is always room for one more, right? Having a remote controlled TARDIS does sound extremely appealing, but what happens when you spice that up to make it hover around? Totally radical, right? This is what the $59.99 Doctor Who R/C Flying TARDIS delivers, although you will need to deliver the *vworp vworp* sound effects by yourself.

The Doctor Who R/C Flying TARDIS is touted to be the world’s smallest of its kind (which should not come across as surprisin, actually), where it is also an officially licensed Doctor Who merchandise. Capable of performing vertical takeoff and landing, the Doctor Who R/C Flying TARDIS will require up to half an hour in order to charge, where that results in 6 minutes of continuous play time. There are no time controls on the remote though, so do not think that you will be able to travel through time with this – your imagination alone will have to do. Do have a handy supply of AA batteries though, and if you’re going to spend plenty of time with this, we’d suggest you use rechargeables in the long run.

Canon EOS Rebel T5 DSLR is the cheapest DSLR from Canon to date

canon-eos-rebel-t5I remember in the early days when a DSLR proved to be a digital camera that was extremely expensive, and only a handful of people could afford it. Well, I am glad to say that the DSLR family has grown by leaps and bounds since then, and the economy of scale has also dropped the price to a level that is a whole lot more affordable for everyone.

It will incorporate an 18-megapixel CMOS (APS-C) image sensor that is accompanied by a high-performance DIGIC 4 image processor, while boasting of an extensive ISO range of 100-6400 (expandable to 12800) that allows it to accommodate shooting situations which range from bright, natural outdoor lighting to low light conditions.
