These Sunflower Smart Lights sense movement and/or vibrations and alert the drone Flying Camera to checkout the potential […]
Henrik Fisker Unveils The EMotion Electric Car
The famed car designer, Henrik Fisker, has had some rough bumps along the way. Not going to talk about those here. I am going to talk about the fact that he isn’t giving up. Fisker’s latest electric vehicle (EV) the EMotion has a “theoretical” 400 mile range and a top speed of 161 mph. These […]
Nissan e-NV200 Electric Van WORKSPACe
I am one of the few guys who actually like minivans. I know plenty of moms (and dads) who are driving a bulky SUV with 4-wheel drive just because they can’t get over the minivan stigma. I get it, they aren’t the coolest or fastest vehicles on the road. But hey, they sure are great […]

Get Three 10-FT MFI-Certified Lightning Cables For $12 With Free Shipping
Boring alert. I am going to talk about MFI-certified lightning cables. When it comes to quality Apple lightning cables most folks are penny wise and pound foolish. We buy crappy cables at the corner store or we use damaged cables for weeks/months on end. Knock it off folks. Lecture time. If your existing lightning cable […]

TRiLIGHT Adjustable Motion Activated LED Light System
I am a huge fan of LED lighting. I make a concerted effort to replace every household light I can with the LED alternative. So when I saw the strange looking TRiLIGHT I had to dig a bit deeper. The TRiLIGHT ($99, currently on Kickstarter) is a motion activated LED garage light. It has three […]
Evoplus Q9 USB Car Charger And Bluetooth Headset Review
Every now and then a product mashup comes along that just makes sense. On paper, the Evoplus Q9 fits that bill. This 2-in-1 gadget plugs into the cars 12V cigarette lighter port and provides two USB charging ports. One port charges at 1-amp and the other at 2.1-amps (5V). That alone is a useful product, but the […]
