Do you love to set up your very own scenarios when you were young while playing with small toys, be they green plastic soldiers or anything else that you can use to let your imagination run wild? If you have answered in the affirmative, then you would definitely fall in love with the £19.99 Voltage Village Glowing House Kit. The name of this unique purchase alone would more or less give the game away – it allows you to rediscover the supreme joy of making things yourself.

Each time dusk falls at your home, why not use the Voltage Village Glowing House Kit to bring some life into the living room? It is charming in nature, and each purchase would arrive with all the necessary bits and pieces required for you to make a couple of glowing paper houses via “Electric Paint”. There is no need for any scissors or glue, just pop out the parts and get folding, and you’re good to go. Not only that, there is no risk of burning yourself by accident since you will not find a need to for a soldering iron, either.

When my eyes first saw the lady in the image above wearing what seems to be an oversized pair of ruby quartz glasses of X-Men fame, the first thing that came across my mind was, since when did Jean Grey end up with Cyclop’s optic blast power? It does make you wonder actually, that Scott’s skin is so tough from the inside, so much so that closing his eyes alone are enough to contain the optic blast energy. I guess this will venture into the realm of biology and science fiction, but for now, what the model is actually wearing would be the EYETOP, touted to be the “first wearable computer”. Hmmm, now where have we heard such a claim before?

The EYETOP has apparently already ended up as a registered trademark over at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Hailing from OLiGHTEK in China, the EYETOP continues to be one of the company’s major research and development products. Not only that, the company has also begun a new business unit just in case it has to handle the international market. Needless to say, many people would be wondering whether the EYETOP is a rip-off of the Google Glass. Winsum Ji, the president of EYETOP, explained, “A wearable computer is one kind of wearable device. The first computers that could be placed on a desk were called desktops, then, later on, when notebook computers were launched, they were called laptops. The EYETOP is a natural continuation of that concept. The device integrates a computer display and computing into a pair of glasses, and consumers can surf the net, play games, do some business once they don a pair.”

Hmmm, theoretically speaking, as the EYETOP comes with a complete computer architecture, it will then be able to handle basic computer functions such as games, movies and email. Some of the EYETOP’s hardware specifications include a 0.5” micro AMOLED micro-display that offers 2,000ppi precision, making it seem as though you were viewing a screen from 20 meters away, and boasts of all-new parallel true 3D features. Sounds good on paper bub, but we would like to see it in the flesh for ourselves.

Credit cards and charge cards – these are the different kinds of status symbols that one can tote around in order to impress his or her date, not to mention the higher up you go, the more levels of privileges would open up to you. As usual, the rich get richer, while the poor – well, they seem to be squeezed right to the very precipice of life itself. With the $24.99 ChargeCard Wallet-Sized USB Cable, it is a totally different charge card by definition, and the name itself more or less gives the game away.

This particular portable accessory is a snap to bring with you wherever you go, and it also works wonders since there are no more tangled messes to deal with when it comes to traditional cables. You will be able to select from 30-pin, MicroUSB, or Lightning (coming soon) connector, and the entire shebang was proudly designed and made in the USA. In fact, the ChargeCard Wallet-Sized USB Cable is so thin (roughly the thickness of just a couple of credit cards), you will be able to stash it in your wallet or passport holder. Want to use it? Just whip it out, and you can get charging or to perform a data transfer in a jiggy. Using a regular USB plug and one proprietary plug for your phone or device, you will always be able to have access to USB power. Seems like a traveling essential to us, don’t you think so?

When it comes to the world of speakers, there are just way too many different models to choose from. The thing is, if you are in for some wireless audio fun, you might want to check out a couple of offerings from iWALK – the new Sound Angle and Sound Angle Mini. Both of these will play nice with all Bluetooth equipped devices, where the speakers are more than capable of delivering heart pumping audio via a stylishly compact design. Needless to say, it will be a large step compared to conventional Bluetooth speaker designs; as the Sound Angle and Sound Angle Mini will take advantage of modish form factors alongside a bunch of joyful shades. The kind of design incorporated would seamlessly include both volume and track control buttons, in addition to a 3.5mm auxiliary input so that users who do not have Bluetooth-enabled devices are still able to use it to play music from such sources, such as older school MP3 players and DVD/CD players among others.

Harris Bernstein, vice president of sales and marketing for iWALK, shared, “We designed the Sound Angle and Sound Angle Mini to be portable and sleek, but to still deliver the same sound quality found in bigger and more expensive speakers.” The Sound Angle Mini could be used to describe the proverb, “Do not judge a book by its cover”, where it delivers amazing power in a compact design. The internal battery delivers up to 4 hours of continuous music playback, while a microSD memory card slot is able to support MP3 format music to deliver direct music playback. Apart from that, it will automatically select shuffle play whenever it uses the microSD memory card.

As for the Sound Angle, this particular speaker delivers superb clarity and robust sound in a surprisingly lightweight and stylish design. Not only that, it comes with a convenient stand which is capable of supporting any tablet or smartphone. There is also an auxiliary input so that you are able to play music from external sources, where among them include MP3 players and DVD/CD players. There is also a built-in microphone which transforms the unit into a speakerphone.

The Sound Angle Mini will arrive in black, white, gray, yellow, red and hot pink shades for $39.99 a pop, while the Sound Angle will cost you $129.99 a pop, as it comes in an array of black, gray, cobalt blue, red and yellow colors.

In a public washroom yesterday, I saw my friend who had a little bit of Jack Nicholson’s character in “As Good As It Gets”, where he turned on the tap to wash his hands, before he used liquid soap from the dispenser to wash the tap head as well. When he looked at me and saw my raised eyebrow, he explained that you never quite know where the previous person’s hand went before using the tap. Seems legit, but seriously, what are the chances of catching something there compared to say, dying when crossing the road or traveling on a bus? If you do not want to take your chances, then the $399.95 Air And Surface Sanitizer might be the perfect addition to your home.

As its name suggests, the Air And Surface Sanitizer is an air purifier which will be able to eliminate mold, viruses, and bacteria in the air as well as on surfaces. It claims to utilize a similar technology that was developed by NASA for purification aboard spaces shuttles, namely ultraviolet light within the device will work alongside a nickel catalyst in order to emit safe catalytic molecules which can destroy up to 99% of mold and bacteria on surfaces. Apart from that, there is also a fan that draws in airborne impurities and the UVC bulb so that it makes short work of airborne allergens, viruses, and odor-causing volatile organic compounds.
