For those days that you might find it simply too exhausting to actually just lick your own cone. This new gadget can free you from the nagging fear of a tragic repetitive stress injury to your tongue by requiring you only to extend it from your lips, whist the cone magically spins your frozen confection in front of you.

This um, unique? gizmo not only lessens your physical exertion during your dairy indulgence, but it can also prevent embarrassing drips and spills. You need only to load the removable dish with your favorite frozen dessert, and set it spinning with the touch of a button. Battery operated, and dishwasher-safe, the Motorized Ice Cream Cone may be just what your looking for… you know, if you’re looking to do absolutely nothing.

The TowlHub – when multifunctional goes overboard

TowlHub
There are items that can do multiple jobs and make our lives easier. The Swiss Army Knife is a prime example, as it has a variety of tools in one place that don’t necessarily correspond with one another, but come in handy. Sometimes a marketing team gets together and makes something that is multifunctional, but in a way that doesn’t make much sense.

One such product is the TowlHub, as it will give you 4 USB ports, a wine stopper, speakers, and a place to put your paper towels in the kitchen. It’s not that these things can’t be together in a single device, more that it doesn’t make sense. You don’t generally want any electronic gadgets around water, and seeing that we use paper towels during cooking, cleaning, and a myriad of other activities that often include H2O in the kitchen, this would not be the safest place for your gear.

If you do like the idea and think you can keep this far enough away from the sink, it would be nice to have an easy-access Bluetooth speaker that would never be moved around. The wine stopper hiding in the top of the towel holder would be nice, but it will look a bit weird once it is in use. If you’d like to have the hub without the speakers it will cost around $50, and with them in place it will be around $80.

The ChocaByte will let you create 3D printed masterpieces out of chocolate

ChocoByte
What leisure activities fill up your spare time? Do you play sports, watch TV, or play games? Whatever your choice, it’s likely something you enjoy thinking about, as it’s a mental escape from work and the humdrum of life. If a hobby makes you happy, why not pursue it? What if your passion lay with making sculptures out of chocolate, and you don’t have the materials to do it?

While you could learn the arduous process associated with tempering and forming chocolate, there are easier ways pf doing things. The ChocoByte will take your crazy chocolate ideas, and make them into a reality. This is a chocolate 3D printer which is capable of producing a 2x2x1” chocolates. You can’t make anything large scale obviously, but this may open the door in a smaller sense into the intriguing world of chocolate.

This is currently only available for pre-order, and will cost about $100. Of course, that doesn’t include the cartridges, which you can purchase 4 of for around $10. By the time this ships you will likely be able to upload your own designs, but as of this moment, it has 100′s of template files for you to choose from. The chocolate cartridge will need to be warmed before being put to use, as you’ll otherwise be trying to mold hard chocolate. This is a interesting idea, but the quality of the chocolate is likely a bit questionable, and you would probably learn more through making your own chocolate creations minus the machine.

The Lock N’ Load Gun Alarm Clock – catch the morning off guard

Gun Alarm Clock
Most days it’s pretty difficult to pry yourself from bed. It’s so warm, soft, and inviting, which is a stark contrast to what everything else about morning is like. Alarms blare at you to open your eyes and move to action, but it’s too easy to hit a button and go back to dreamland.

If you want more of a reason to spring from your bed in the mornings, then the Lock N’ Load Gun Alarm Clock can help with that. This is a digital clock that has a target with a red-lit center point that will spring up as soon as the alarm goes off. It will be your task to find the gun that comes with it, and hit the center to shut it off. While this seems like it would more like give you a heart attack than anything, it will help with your aim and reaction timing.

There are several different game modes which can help you to change things up every now and again. You’ll have options such as Quick Shot, in which you’ll need to pull off five perfect shots within three minutes, Time Mode where your challenge will be to see how quickly you wake up in the mornings, and a regular pop-up and shoot. This will cost around $24 should you be interested in making waking up more of a challenge rather than a passive situation. You could also move the gun and alarm clock the night before to make sure you’re not waking up and aiming at the same place everyday.  However, you’ll need to be prepared for the times where you want to shoot this thing off of the dresser, with a gun that didn’t come with the clock.

Wake Up Vibe – Is that an Alarm Clock in your Pants?

7presentedfloor_high

It’s no secret to anyone that I am not a morning person. I have to set alarms, and back-up alarms, just to make sure I’m up when I need to be. Birds singing and the sun rising bring me no joy whatsoever.  I can only imagine what it would be like to actually look forward to the morning… could this next gadget do the trick?

Check out Wake-up Vibe, It’s a kind of alarm clock / vibrator hybrid that you can set, nestle it in your underpants, and when morning comes, so do… ah, never mind. I’m guessing you get the idea. Simply set the alarm to the appropriate time, and choose between 6 different vibrating patterns. Then, place the device in your panties. (don’t worry, its thin, and ergonomically designed to hug a woman’s curves, and stay in place) and wait to be roused from sleep with a nice buzzzzz.

The folks that make the Wake-up Vibe warn that use of it may be addicting, and if you have no need for an alarm, simply set the device to manual mode, and you can, um… wake yourself up anytime you want to. The entire device is covered in high quality silicone, and is completely sealed in order to keep it clean and hygienic. The Wake-up Vibe has intuitive controls, and a digital display, that allows you to easily set the tone of your Wake-up experience.

Available in pink, black or purple, the Wake-up Vibe comes with a rechargeable battery, and the appropriate plugs for use all over the world. You can find out where to get yours, for only around 79 bucks at wakeupvibe.com, now I have to go, I have a very important meeting in the morning…

The Peephole Reverser – Who’s in There?

31cX61YaArL

There are a few things in this world we don’t even notice anymore. Take, for instance, the peephole. Almost every hotel room door has one. Your front door is likely to have one, and while we may sometimes use them in order to determine who has come a-knocking on our doors, we never really think too much about who could actually be looking right back in at us.

Case in point, let me introduce you to the the Peephole Reverser. That’s right, all the while you were prancing around your last hotel room in your under-roos, anyone with a Peephole Reverser could have been peeking back inside your private space, ogling your nether regions and making ready for you-tube movies of you, let’s say, jumping on the bed. (not that any of this has happened to me personally)

This, um, intrusive Peephole Reverser was originally developed in order to enable police officers to assess potential threats and view real-time activity behind a closed door when that door contained a peephole. However, now, this unique product allows anyone the ability to have a clear view directly into someones home, hotel room, or apartment. Hmmm…

The Reverse Peephole viewer is effective on all major brands of standard door peepholes and is sure to make you the hit of the party, or at least of the holding cell you wind up in. So if you’d actually like to be able to have a ± 15°  viewing angle through doors , and a depth of view of approx 10 feet… get yourself a Peephole Reverser, for around 75 bucks at amazon.com, and if you don’t actually want one… please always remember that someone out there already has one!

3-D Babies – Hold your Baby, Before He’s Born.

Baby-Banner

Oh how I remember being pregnant with my daughter! How every ultrasound picture was cherished, passed around to the grandparents, and ultimately framed and place on the nightstand, as everyone counted the days to her arrival. That was well over 10 years ago… and I remember dreaming about who she might look like, her father? Me? I wonder how far would I have gone in order to catch a glimpse of what was to come?

Well, parents in waiting these days have another option to memorialize their baby-to-be. Check out 3-D Babies,  creating a baby figurine that actually resembles your baby’s facial features and body position.  Using your 3D/4D ultrasound images they create an artistic representation of your baby, using computer graphics and amazing 3D printing technology.

Available in life-size, half size, or mini and shades of light, medium and dark… I’m guessing that whipping out a little life size fetus figurine at your next PTA meeting will put you head and shoulders above anyone with a measly black and white blur on receipt paper huh? and if nothing else,  the next time she’s screaming at you that you’ve ruined her life, it will remind you of when you couldn’t wait for her to get here.

3-D Babies start at around 200 bucks, or just get a gift card, it’s the perfect baby shower gift. Just remember, For best results, schedule your 3D ultrasound during gestation weeks 24-32. Find out more by visiting 3D-babies.com.

The Techslinger is a tablet holster

Techslinger
Our gadgets are important to us. How we look, is also somewhat important to us. It’s only been in the last few years that being ‘nerdy’ has become a trend, as it certainly didn’t have a positive connotation beforehand. If you enjoy wearing your badge of geekery with pride, but still want to look somewhat professional, you have to dress yourself accordingly.

The Techslinger is not a bad idea, but not everyone is going to want to holster their iPad up against themselves and wear a harness to do it. Other than sounding like a cross between a technomage and a gunslinger, this could be a good way of carrying your tablet, phone, and a few other valuables around. However, you might be testing the line between trendy and actually nerdy.

These are made out of high-quality materials, and come in a variety of sizes and colors. You will need to wash it by hand sadly, which for some people is quite the deterrent. Depending on which size you get, this can cost you anywhere from $40-70. Seeing that this would take the place of your messenger bag or purse, it’s a fair price. However, you’ll have to enjoy the notion of strapping into your gear every morning, and getting plenty of weird looks as this almost seems more costume than functional. There are plenty of adjustable straps to get yourself fit in snugly, and everything is kept in place by a button snap strap.

There are those of us that love the winter, and those of us that don’t. I happen to fall into the former category. However, it doesn’t really matter which side of the fence you’re on, freezing your butt off does not add to the fun, and sometimes dressing warmly isn’t enough… sometimes, you just need a steaming hot cup of cocoa, and sometimes, there’s zero chance of you getting your hands on one… until now.

Check out Hot Can, a nifty new way to be sure you can have a hot soup, or beverage, anytime, and anywhere you want one. These self-heating, recyclable and non toxic cans of gut warming goodness can keep hot for up to 45 minutes and don’t require a kitchen, campfire, or electricity.

NES Controller Vaporizer gives new purpose to old gaming accessories

LittUP Ecig Mods
The ingenuity of humankind is so astounding. We can make beautiful things out of what would otherwise be viewed as trash, and even after thousands upon thousands of years, we’re still coming up with brand-new ideas. If you’re a fan of video games, and also enjoy puffing a bit of smoke out of your face, then you might like what two fellows in Indiana came up with.

Their business is called Litt Up Custom Ecigs, and they have taken all sorts of video game controllers that don’t see much use any more, and turned them into vaporizers. While they have posted a huge variety of makes and models on their Facebook page, the only one up for grabs at the moment (actually it’s out of stock, but it’s the only one listed in their online store) is a modified NES Controller. The connection is on the right end of the controller, which is fired by the B button.

The wattage ranges from 7-20, and is adjustable up and down through the D-pad up and down buttons. Where there was once start and select buttons, there is now an OLED display which shows “a battery charge graph, in the middle the ohms of your coil are displayed, with the voltage the device is firing at under the ohms. On the right your targeted wattage is displayed”. The battery is a 1000mAh which charges via micro USB. These will cost you $145, but as they are big on modding, they can and will mod your controller rather than a random one if you’d like. They also had talk of a Gamcube Hookah for those of you that are interested.
