Four-Wheel Drive Electric Skateboard… The BajaBoard
We have seen some pretty cool skateboards over the years… some that are 3D printed, some that have only one wheel, some that are totally re-imagined, some that fold-up, etc… This all-wheel-drive off-road board is the mountain bike of skateboards, called the BajaBoard. It is currently looking for backers on KickStarter. Read on for details, […]
Benelli BN302 Makes Learning To Ride A Motorcycle Cool
Lately, Benelli has been known for larger exotic and expensive triples such as the Tornado, the Tre-K Adventurer, and the TnT. Now that Qianjiang owns Benelli (since 2005) they want to keep the Italian brand/styling alive. Their latest bike, the BN302, makes learning to ride sexy… if that were possible. The Benelli BN302 is a […]
Elio Motors Wants To Make An 84MPG Car for $6,800
Well, technically it isn’t a car… by law, it is a motorcycle. This is both good, and bad. The good, at least in California, you get to use the carpool lane without any of those lame DMV stickers. The bad is that some states will require the driver to get a motorcycle license. Before we […]
X-Mini WE Micro Portable NFC Bluetooth Capsule Speaker Review
The, truly, portable Bluetooth speakers, while portable, tend to be a bit lacking on sound quality. And while the X-Mini WE Portable Speaker ($17) is advertised to be the fix to this problem. The tag line for the X-Mini WE Speaker is Sound Beyond Size. I am not sure it is. First off, the X-Mini […]

Kentura Solar Plant Is Cleaned By E4 Robots
Two of my favorite things coming together to make the world a better place. Solar and robotics. The Kentrua Sun Solar Field in Israel’s Negev desert is 20 acres in size and produces 9 million kilowatt hours of electricity per year. As you might imagine, having a large solar array in the desert means that […]
188MPH RC Car
This RC car manages to go over 188mph which I think is the world record for the fastest RC car. Don’t quote me on that. Either way it is quite impressive. I have no idea how they can keep in going in a straight line. I struggle to not hit things when going 20mph in […]
I Want A BomBoard!
They say “money can’t buy happiness” but I’ve never seen someone on a jet ski frowning. And now that jet ski feeling is even more affordable and portable thanks to the BomBoard. The BomBoard is smaller version of typical jet ski and is also modular, meaning you can take it apart and fit it in […]
Commute-Case By Green Energy Motors
I have always been a fan of electric scooters and skateboards. I really like the instant torque and almost silent ride. Looks like I might have to add another electric scooter to the mix, the Commute-Case. The Commute-Case, by Green Energy Motors, is a tiny transformer that goes from briefcase, to trolley, to electric scooter. […]
