First off, this strange looking electric vehicle (EV) is real and has been driving around Poland since 2009. It is all electric and is known as SAM. To me, it reminds of a kids crayon drawing. The front of the car looks like a cartoon monster or bug. After exporting the…
Looks like Garmin just leap frogged GoPro with their latest action cam, the Garmin VIRB Ultra 30 Action Camera ($499). Not only is it good looking, it is chalked full of features. I am sure GoPro will respond with an upgraded camera any day now. In the meantime let’s jump…
I was recently at an outrigger race event and saw this cool/portable cot tent. Not only did it provide its owner a break from the elements but it also provided a place to change and some privacy while trying to get a nap. Another great feature of the Kamp-Rite Tent…

I happen to like my Dropcam Pro cameras (rebranded to the Nest Cam). While not perfect, they are pretty good at capturing and uploading HD video to the Google cloud. One of the largest gripes about the Nest Cam was the fact that it can’t go outdoors. Sure there are…
Twin brothers Adam and Nathan Freise made this awesome Tesla Motors “Not A Dream” short video on their own time and money. The narration comes directly from a Nikola Tesla speech and seems to fit perfectly. It is not a dream It is a simple feat of scientific electrical engineering…
