Bomb Coin Box

tommy-bomb-box.jpg
The Bomb Coin Box is a fantastic way of getting rid of all your spendthrift means. Aimed directly at the budgets of the younger and relatively poorer sections of males, this coin box makes depositing money fun but withdrawing it is a, well, pretty dangerous operation. At the end of the day it helps us save up a little more and that’s when no one complains. Every time you plan to get a little out of it, the coin box starts making a fuss in the form of some weird sounds. Ultimately, the little LED at the tip (that resembles a real wick) indicates explosion point. Mind the mess it causes after exploding its contents all over the place.

iPod Speakers Get Waterproofing

June 29, 2007 - 7:25 PM : Related Entries - Appliances | Audio/Video

p1754h.jpgThis is smart. Now that everyone who owns an iPod loves music, it is only obvious that they make great bathroom singers. But then, what hampered their crazy plans of shifting their iPod speakers into the bathroom for a more enjoyable bath was the danger of them getting wet. So we have this solution that can serve us better. These intelligent iPod speakers are totally waterproof. The system comprises of two built-in 3W speakers and is made from tough shatterproof polycarbonate with a boingy rubber bumper. The outer transparent shell is unbreakable.

The protective coating shields your iPod from sand, sun cream, shampoo and seawater.

I know many guys who literally moan while getting off their cars to work in the mornings. It just happens, we love the drive to work and enjoy shifting gears a lot more than receiving painful memos from our bosses and sit rooted in our seats for hours on end. Drinkstuff have provided a small, yet helpful tip. Their Gear Shift Cuff Links can help you keep in ‘touch’ with those magnificent moments you had on your way to office. The real pleasure in driving is the shifting of gears as it emphasizes on the dominance we have over the car. Something man always desires.

icemaker%20copy.jpg
Drinkstuff have made drinks a lot more enjoyable and void of all issues of painful arrangements of ice making. The bulky refrigerator won't accompany you to your favorite picnic spot nor will the over heating freezer that’s bigger than your trunk. Here’s the Contessa Mini Table Top Ice Maker that can not only make ice quicker (with figures reaching 12kg of ice in 24hours). This one’s 15kg in weight, so just incase you own a limousine, this would make it a permanent residence. The tank capacity isn’t too bad either with a 2 liter capacity that can hold up to 70 cubes.

VS RC Battle Tanks: Kill ‘em All

June 29, 2007 - 6:25 PM : Related Entries - Toys

battle%20tanks.jpg
For the ones who aren’t in the army, here’s a safer first hand experience of what happens at war. These remote controlled battle tanks are a cool means of venting all the killing instincts in you out on some defenseless machinery. As quoted and reviewed at red5, the VS Tank is the world’s first interactive micro battle tank that uses infra-red technology. The turrets fire out infrared beams and can be controlled via the remote. Small size and great accuracy is what makes these so desirable. Each set comes with two tanks with their controllers 8 pieces each of slope, corner and extension CD case connectors, and an impressive battlefield (so glad they thought of that). Check the video after the jump for more.

Tankbook: Smokes and Books

cig_books1.jpgFor all the smart ones out there, here’s a great recluse to your rescue. If owning a book was ever a taboo in front of your pals who are nothing but a bunch of jobless fags who keep sniggering at the site of you reading your book. Now you can boldly march up to them holding a cigarette pack in your hand, ignoring all the teachings of the harmful effects of smoking that you ever learnt, open the pack and unleash the ridiculously reduced version of your favorite books. Don’t snarl at me since I didn’t make these, nor do I condemn them. In fact they seem pretty cool reputation boosters for most nerds. Its all up to you whether to love them or hate them.

iRiver Life Unit Drops Jaws Lower Than Ever

June 28, 2007 - 2:40 PM : Related Entries - Audio/Video

iriver-life.jpg
The Life Unit Multimedia Hub by iRiver is a beauty as much as a smarty. It comes fully loaded with hi-fi Speakers and a DVD player to provide you with a great multimedia experience. There’s also a mid-woofer and a display that reveals a 78 key QWERTY keyboard and this ain’t any ordinary display. The Life Unit has a cool detachable display that really wins over most other PMP entertainment systems. And since you also have wireless connectivity and a TV to go with it, I really feel that putting your money into buying something like this shouldn’t go in vain.

Zypad WL 1000: A Wearable Computer

June 28, 2007 - 2:18 PM : Related Entries - Cellphones & Accessories | Other Stuff

zypad_hr1.JPG
Powered with a AMD Au1100 400MHz 32-bit MIPS processor and 64 MB RAM, we have the stunning Zypad WL 1000 all dressed to kill and with all you can ever imagine, it can be worn on your wrist! I’m totally serious. In spite of all that it offers, the Zypad is pretty comfortable to wear and isn’t all that bulky either. Weighing 10.23 ounces and with dust and water resistance, this makes a perfect wear. The makers have even fitted in a 3.5" TFT touchscreen with automatic contrast adjustment via ambient light sensor. Blessed with an integrated L1 band 12-channel GPS receiver and helix antenna, it also has USB connectivity, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi IEEE802.11. The features go on and on and I keep drooling my tongue dry. The entire kit comes with a dual battery charger, vehicle power supply, three pieces of pen assembly and a few bits of protective skin for the delicate display.

Bugman: Future Camels

June 27, 2007 - 6:46 PM : Related Entries - Wheels

bugman.jpg
Treading the desert is a pain in the legs, so humans (also called the masters of creation) have been using camels for the last-don’t-know-how-many decades. Ever wondered how lazy man can get in the future. well, the answer isn’t fully provided by the Bugman (chill, it’s just a car), but you can get a fair idea. This car is specially designed to move along the desert with its suction cup-like tires. The height of the car is taken care of by some Pneumatic pump systems. This is futuristic but also exciting. I wonder if the camels are planning a strike or whether they are heaving a sigh of relief.

Between Chinese Scrolls and Cellphones

scroll_phone2.jpg
As we all know that the Chinese are ever updated with technology, we also know that they love their roots and stick to cultural norms in many ways. In fact, we too don’t mind sharing a few of these excellent traditions. So saying, we must have noticed (or be owning) some well crafted Chinese scrolls that dangle from our walls. But just in case you are loosing patience with a harmless little scroll since you can’t decipher the script, then there’s another, more understandable cellphone. Yes, I said cellphone. The screen of the phone neatly rolls and forms a tidy bundle with the number keys on the outside so that it can be used even when at rest (folded).

pioneer-happy-aqua-lumi-led-bath-light.jpg
For all those romantic bathing experiences you and your loved one have dreamt of, here’s a highlight. The Happy Aqua Lumi are neat little water-resistant, battery operated, illuminating LEDs. All you need are 3 AA batteries to get these little lights all around your bathtub twinkling and glittering to the delight of your eyes. You can toggle between the two available lighting modes namely, the rainbow mode – where the colors of the rainbow adorn your little pool, or the timer mode – which drowns you in around 10 minutes of lights blinking every 10 seconds. These last for up to 96 hours without running out of charge (wonder how many romantic baths in that count).

Striker Professional Table Football

Straight from the soccer crazy soccer fans from Italy comes the Striker Professional Table Football. It will surely need a lot of place to be accommodated in. it seems to be a pretty novel means of getting entertained in an off-screen fashion. It is a good addition to a pub or bar as well. Just make sure that the drunks don’t flush out all their frustrations on these little men too hard. It isn’t a less expensive buy after all. As far as the game is concerned, well I have to say that it is professionally built with an impact resistant glass top, ball-guard, detachable legs and anti-rust chrome-effect steel telescopic poles with indestructible polyurethane plastic handles and players. I love soccer and am too “old” to be striding the field dribbling my way to glory, so how about a game in my living room?

Oh how I loved these. At last we have some perfect means of concealing the oversized bottles of liquor we carry home without anyone realizing what our plans for the weekend are like. These are pretty cool cases shaped like violin cases that can easily accommodate large sized bottles of the coveted liquid without anyone noticing. Just pray that your inquisitive neighbor doesn’t ask you to play a few notes for his entertainment or to settle his curiosity at your sudden indulgence in music. The vases are leather lined with blue velvet on the insides keeping your drink safe from harm.

coast-7575-8.jpgFor all the adventurous kinds, here’s an exciting and relieving find I came across. It’s basically a flashlight that doesn’t bother you with batteries constantly running out of juice, that too when you need it most. The makers claim that it can be charged in your car itself. So that whenever you’ll need it, it will be already for use. Believe me; these flashlights are very helpful indeed. These can however be stored in 12V socket all the time and thus save you the effort of making special accommodations for it.

Geyser Tubes: Scientific Messes

June 26, 2007 - 9:19 AM : Related Entries - Toys

p1797a.jpg

p1797ex3.gifThanks to loads of forwarded messages that keep alerting us of the hazards caused by some co-incidental alliance of Coke and mint tablets, we are all well educated now. It isn’t all that much fun just reading about these whacko experiments but trying them ourselves. So we get ourselves a bottle of coke and some mints and watch the phenomena without the slightest regret for the wasted beverage. So to facilitate this experience (for the hopelessly inquisitive ones) we have this neat geyser tube. It is capable of directing the jet of coke that comes zooming out of the bottle’s mouth to great heights. It fits neatly on the bottle in place of the cap. All you have to do is load the mints into the tube. These are kept away from the fuzzy drink by a block that has to be opened by pulling a pin. Make sure you get as far as possible from the bottle after pulling the pin. It is safer.
