Escort Max 360C Radar And Laser Detector Gives Waze A Run For The Money
I am a big fan of Apple Maps now that they have gotten better and don’t send me on wild goose chases. With that said, I often find myself using the Waze app when going on longer trips or when I may be driving a bit faster than the speed limit. For those of you not […]
Nest X Yale Lock
We use keyless “smart” locks on several doors and love the convenience. None of them are perfect, today, but they are getting better with each new iteration. We also use Nest products in our home, so we are hopeful the latest Yale/Nest mashup is a good one. Fingers crossed. The Next X Yale Lock works […]

Take a 2005 Jeep Wrangler with around 22,000 miles and shoehorn in a Dodge Viper 8.3-liter SRT10 engine and this is what you get.

100-Percent Solar Powered Train
This is the world’s first entirely solar train and it is up and running in Byron Bay, Australia. The Byron Bay Railroad Company started off with a heritage train and added 6.5 kilowatts of solar panels. This solar train can carry 100 seated passengers, a few standing passengers, luggage, bikes, and more. More details, pictures, […]
Floating Tent?
Yep. This is a floating tent called the Shoal Tent made by SmithFly. This is the first tent of it’s kind. It is more of a floating raft with a tent topper on top. Campsite too crowded? No problem, just tie off to shore and float your tent in the lake. The world is your […]
Prestige Decanters – Step Up Your Booze Game
“I don’t always drink whiskey, but when I do…” The line of Prestige Decanters take the job of holding your precious booze quite seriously. They are hand-blown, lead-free, decanters made in the USA. Kentucky to be exact. Prefect for the guy/gal who has everything and just in time for the holidays.
Wood Pellet Outdoor Heater
Propane patio heaters are nice when working properly. I say “working properly” because, as the price is being driven down by cheaper and cheaper units (made in China) the quality seems to be following. The metal is flimsy and igniter/gas flow issues have had my propane heater working about 60% of the time. So much […]
RESA 3D Printed Insoles
While perusing Costco this past weekend I noticed a large insole kiosk. The kiosk was named “resa” and they were busy scanning folks feet and 3d printing insoles. Pretty cool idea. Surprisingly there are almost zero reviews of the RESA custom insoles. I will try and swing back over there later today and try a […]
Water Pressure Trike Goes 0-62MPH In Half A Second
François Gissy had a dream. He built that dream. His trike is powered by 35 gallons of water in a carbon fiber wrapped tank with a pressure of 6,000PSI. Uncork this bad boy and it gets to 62MPH in 0.55 seconds. Top speed on the water pressure trike is 162.2MPH before it runs out of […]
Honda 150SS Racer
The Honda 150SS Racer is a new concept bike, not a Honda Grom with mods. The Honda 150SS Racer was unveiled, as a concept (for now), at the Bangkok Motor Show this year. From the looks of it, the engine is from a Honda CBR150R which is a much sportier beast than the Grom’s motor. […]
