The USB Notebook Cooling Fan II will keep you from getting third-degree laptop burns

BRANDO USB Cooling Fan
You’ve been sitting on the couch with your laptop for quite a while, and all of a sudden you realize that your skin is being scorched. It’s not because you’ve spilled your coffee or have been burned by a baby dragon, it’s your laptop. Those things can heat up to become a miniature version of hell that is intent on searing the flesh from your legs.

Of course, none of us want to live like this. Even with a laptop stand that has slots to help with air flow, that doesn’t always make the grade. The USB Notebook Cooling Fan II will help you to rid your laptop of the heated air that’s trying desperately to escape through the vents. This is a very simple, inexpensive, and seemingly effective method to stop your hardware from trying to hurt you.

It’s a pretty straightforward idea, as it will suck the heated air out of your laptop, and try and bring it down to a normal temperature. There is an LED display that will show you exactly what the internal temperature is, before and after the cooling process. Powering this obviously comes from the USB port, but it should be noted that this will only work with laptops that have both flat and vertical airing grills. This will only cost you around $25, and isn’t so large that it would be unpleasant to carry around with you from place to place.

usb-bee-pollen-hoodTrust the folks over in Japan to come up with something crazy from time to time, and here we are with the $56 USB Pollen Blocker that is a surefire way of getting you noticed whenever you are around at the office. After all, who the heck wears a mask like this at work? It might sound nuts, but the USB Pollen Blocker is actually justified in its existence, since each year would see the general Japanese populace get attacked by pollen, and this more or less happens during the spring. Thanko hopes that with the introduction of the USB Pollen Blocker, one’s eyes and nose will be protected against the irritating pollen.

Granted, the USB Pollen Blocker would look a whole lot like a beekeeper’s mask as well as a hazmat suit, where it is touted to offer 99.9% protection from the pores in the air, as though you are in your very own clinical isolation chamber. It comes with a USB-powered fan on top so that the entire shebang will not mist up, all the time ensuring that nasty pollen will not enter into your breathing path. It works great at work, as the visor boasts of a large viewing area so that you can still see what goes on in front of the computer.

The Mushroom LED Lamp is a speaker that has a simple idea that might grow on you

Generic Mushroom Lamp USB Speaker
When decorating the space you inhabit, some themes are easier to go for than others. Lighthouse bathrooms are widely popular, much in the same way fruit or vegetable-themed kitchens are all too common. You can find an array of knick-knacks and trinkets that will fill in any empty spots with relative ease. When you want to go for something off-the-wall like a modern mushroom forest, things can be a bit trickier.

While we saw a great bathroom accessory that would fit this aesthetic beautifully, that’s only one room of the house. This Mushroom LED Lamp that has a USB speaker will assist with this motif in your office or bedroom. It is a very sleek, generic-looking mushroom that has a plethora of LED lights hiding underneath its cap. While on its base, you can tilt or angle the lamp in almost any direction you’d like to focus your illumination.

The lamp is controlled by touch on the top of the mushroom, and it has a 3W speaker to blast out your music. There is a micro SD port with direct playback of MP3 music, and it also has Bluetooth capabilities so you can pair it up with your tablet or phone. This is a fairly pricey lamp at $84, but if you have the money to blow on interior decorating and it fits your theme, then go for it.
