Windproof TurboFlame Lighter



Thanks to the TurboFlame GX7, the days of standing in the middle of a field on a camping trip trying to coax a lighter into producing a flame can be a distant memory. The Windproof TurboFlame is no ordinary lighter, and has recently been re-developed for extra precision and reliability. You may be thinking what makes this lighter so special? Well, the 1300°c pinpoint flame can be locked-on to burn continuously as an aid for craftwork, minor welding, etc and whenever constant heat source is required. It’s multi-directional, which means it will light at any angle - even upside down - and keep burning no matter the weather conditions. The safety cap prevents easy access by children and accidental ignition is attached to the body of the lighter by a chain, and provides completely secure closure for travelling or storage. With many emergency uses and practical applications, the GX7's 1300ºC flame will cut through nylon rope or seat cord, spot-weld plastic or rubber, defrost a frozen lock, and it even solders/quenches metal. It can be used to wax skis, seal micro-cracks, fuse wires, and can be relied on in windy conditions and for many outdoor uses that would defeat ordinary lighters. At home, the TurboFlame GX7 makes a handy kitchen tool that doubles as a powerful miniature blowtorch, ready to handle dozens of household and outdoor tasks.

IPod enthusiasts and attention seekers everywhere can now enhance their musical experience with a MP3 accessory that literally brings the music to light. The iBeat iPod earphones look like a normal pair of earphones until you plug them in to your MP3 player.

The battery pack runs off 2 AAA batteries and comes equipped with a volume-type small wheel which allows you to control how responsive the light show should be. The second control on the battery pack is a small button that gives you three options, always on, illuminate to the beat of the music, or completely off. The power from the batteries should keep you glowing for about 60 hours.The light show the earphones provides does a good job of synchronizing with the music, lighting up on each downbeat and every other note or vocal, and put on quite a show during a song's crescendo. The iBeat Earphones come equipped with three clear rubber cases (for iPod, mini, and shuffle), the iPod fits on to the front and there’s an extra slot at the back especially for holding the battery pack. The clip functions like a holster, protecting the iBeat and the MP3 player, while giving you easy access to the controls.

Nyko Air Flo Mouse



When you first look at it the Nyko Air Flo Mouse looks like an ordinary two-button scroll-wheel optical mouse, but as soon as you place your hand over it, you’ll feel the Air Flo technology and realise this is no ordinary mouse!Anyone who regularly uses a PC will know that after about 10-15 minutes of ‘mouse usage’, your hand will start to become sticky, or even sweat. If you spend hours on your PC it can be plain uncomfortable. The innovative Nyko Air Flo Mouse allows you to spend as much time as you like on your PC without getting hot or sticky (your hand that is).How does the Nyko Mouse work?The Nyko Air Flo Mouse incorporates a unique air intake and output design. Air is sucked in through the circular vents at the front of the mouse. Using an internal fan, cool air is blown through four vents on the sides and top of the mouse onto your palm, thumb, ring and small finger, which ensures you’ll have a dry gaming experience. This is a great idea, and is perfect for people who suffer sweaty palms or get a bit nervous during those intense gaming sessions.The Nyko Air Flo Mouse even has three different settings, off, low, and high. Off obviously explains itself, low provides a gentle stream of cool air, and high is force 12 on the Beaufort scale, well not quite, but I think you know what we mean!Gamers aren’t the only people who can benefit from using the Air Flo Mouse, web designers, graphic designers, office workers and anyone else who spends a lot of time on their PC can now be perspiration free during those stressful situations.

Beer Bottle Opener



Drinking beer whilst operating tools and machinery probably isn't the best idea, but if you're ever doing some DIY and fancy a cold one, rest assured you won't be left thirsty with the Beer Bottle Opener. Forget jokes like ‘lets get hammered’ and, ‘a must have tool for knocking them down’, this bottle opener means business. The stainless steel head can be used to hammer a nail or get hammered, and the long sturdy neck provides added leverage to open your beverage!The Beer Bottle Opener takes multi tasking to a new level, who would have thought they could come up with something so useful (the bottle opener) that serves another purpose (tapping in nails). Shaped like a Claw Hammer, the metal head can be used for striking things (normally nails), but with this version the curved claw is replaced with a bottle opener.The fully functional hammer can be used for bashing in the nails on the garden shed, or some routine maintenance on your fence. Then flip it over and it’s instantly converted into a bottle opener, which is perfect for any beer swigging DIY enthusiast!

Astroblaster


The Astroblaster is a very unique educational toy developed in America by an Astrophysicist. It consists of 4 super bouncey rubber balls and a plastic rod. The rod is secured into the centre of the biggest ball, and is long enough to take three others balls, each slightly smaller in size. The idea is that when all 4 balls are on the rod, the AstroBlaster is dropped, and the impact with the ground spreads through the different size balls causing the smallest ball to “blast off” at high speed into the air achieving heights of over 5 times the drop height!

To operate the AstroBlaster:
• Hold the tip of the Astroblaster rod that extends through the smallest ball.
• Hold away from the body at arms length.
• Release when the Astroblaster is hanging straight down.
• The Astroblaster can reach heights of over 5 times the drop height!The pack contains an extra 2 balls just in case the top ball blasts off and is lost. A simple but very enjoyable educational toy…happy blasting!

Brain Trainer


The human brain is the most complex structure known to man, it’s made up of 100 billion neurons, most of these are already formed at birth. Its computing power is almost infinite, but many of us take it so much for granted that we never realise a fraction of its true potential. As we grow older, even the parts of it we do use function less efficiently than they did in our youth, and this is where the Brain Trainer can help.Imagine keeping in tip top shape with only a 3 minute workout, sounds to good to be true doesn’t it? But we’re not talking about your body, it’s your brain that’ll be in good shape after a workout with the Brain Trainer. The concept of training your brain may seem odd at first, but in fact it’s as natural and as healthy as exercising in the gym, swimming or walking.

Developed in Japan by neuroscientist Dr. Ryuta Kawashima the Brain Trainer is a smart, palm-sized state-of-the-art module that enhances your memory and mind capacity with 4 training modules or metal workouts. The Brain Trainer tests speed, accuracy and memory and gives you feedback on your performance at 5 levels, your progress is stored so it can be monitored over up to a 12 month period. Better still, it’s a stand-alone unit and doesn’t need any software.How does it work?A simple solution for mental alertness, the Brain Trainer has a large, very readable LCD screen and sensibly-sized buttons. There’s no age barrier to using it, it works as well for 40-somethings as for octogenarians. Women and men can both benefit, and If you’re a couple, you can even compete to see who’s sharpest. And while it’s good for retraining an older brain, younger minds can use it too, to develop essential logic, memory and numerical skills.Exercising with the Brain Trainer is like having your very own personal mental gymnasium, it consists of two operational modes, Basic and Advanced Training, specifically designed to enhance your mental agility and memory retention, stimulate the frontal cortex and ensure your brain is consistently performing at peak levels.Basic TrainingLike a workout in a gym, first you warm up before you tackle the serious stuff.

A series of 100 relatively easy addition, subtraction and multiplication problems, the answers to which are never more than 20. For example, the screen might flash 5 x _ = 15, prompting you to key in the answer 3 to complete the problem.The aim is to complete the series of 100 problems as fast as you can, and making as few mistakes as possible.You can run the programme as many times as you want each day (the problems are randomly generated, so you'll rarely get the same sequence twice), and the Brain Trainer monitors your performance and time for each session, with your high score automatically updated and recorded.Advanced TrainingThis consists of a counting test, focus test and memory test, in which you are challenged to add, subtract and multiply as fast as you can, count as fast as you can, to add a random series of numbers sequentially, and to memorise and recall as many numbers as possible from the 30-number sequence displayed on the screen.The more time you spend on your Brain Trainer, the better and faster you'll get at performing the various tasks. And in the test data mode the unit plots your progress towards genius in graphic form, either over 30 days or a full year, so you can really see your improvement.

Glow Brick



Glow Brick has to be one of the coolest coffee table accessories we have seen in a long time. How do you explain a light bulb seemingly levitating inside a clear plastic brick that you don't even switch on?Looking like something out of the Tate Modern just isn't enough, there's a science involved. While you waste away your days watching cartoons and the kids run around biting your ankles, your Glow Brick is grabbing all the solar energy it can. Now, this is where the Brick really impresses. Once the sun goes down all the energy stored inside the light bulb releases itself as soft light, the light bulb then starts to glow inside the brick. You can use Glow Brick to add that extra something to those cosy nights in front of the fire, or just to add a touch of mood lighting to your post clubbing chill-out sessions. However you choose to use it, you're always left wondering exactly how it works.


Technical specifications

• Brick dimensions: 11x7.8x7.8cm
• The Glow Brick needs no batteries, just plenty of sunlight!

Soundbug



This Soundbug from Feonic allows you to turn any hard, flat surface into a speaker!Soundbug uses a revolutionary metal called Terfenel D to generate sound, it does this by vibrating against the surface that you decide to stick it to.Now concentrate, here's the science bit. The metal's shape changes in a magnetic field....wait for it....called (deep breath)magnetostriction, so an electromagnet can drive rapid vibrations. It attaches itself firmly via a sucker push ring and connects to the headphone socket of MP3 players, CD players, portable DVD, Laptop to name but a few! Plus when your music stops, the Soundbug switches itself off automatically, therefore saving your batteries! Press ReviewsLoaded"Nice." [The 10 Best Gadgets Under £100] The Independent"One of the strangest devices we've ever featured." Boys Toys Magazine"If you're looking for an interesting gadget for a gift, [the] Soundbug is sure to make an impression."PC How To Magazine"This is my favourite [travel gadget] at the moment." The Guardian"If you can't travel without music, consider investing in a Soundbug." Business Traveller"Sayonara portable speakers. Say hello to the 8-ounce Soundbug, which cranks out as much as 75 decibels from any flat, smooth surface you attach it to... Turn it 90 degrees clockwise to lock it in place and you have a private concert in your cubicle." Business 2.0"Plug the Soundbug into a music device and attaches its sucker base to any hard surface and Bob's your auntie's brother's lover (as they say in Texas) -you've got an instant take-anywhere speaker." Rated Magazine"...measures in at about the size of a computer mouse [and] is certainly a nice and shiny piece of kit." Boys Toys Magazine"...does what it claims." Which? (June '02)"...ergonomic, sleek, techno..." The Times"The soundbug is a fantastic portable speaker without the speaker, and it really works a top dream treat especially on glass or something thick like a polished table top. It even has a battery saving feature so when there's no sound playing, it turns itself off. OK, it's gimmicky, but it'll get people talking and it offers remarkably good sound quality from something as mundane as a picture frame." bbc.co.uk"Imagine a world in which every surface, even the back of your head, could be transformed into a loudspeaker. The Soundbug achieves just that." Q Magazine"...It even turns the human skull into a loudspeaker if it is pressed on the back of the head." news.bbc.co.uk"The sound quality achieved by Soundbug is impressive, especially when the device is attached to a thick piece of a dense material -- such as a desk." ZDNet"...Very soon, angry parents could be bursting into their childrens' rooms and shouting: 'I told you to turn that table down!'..." The Guardian"...This strange looking gadget from Olympia called the Soundbug is a revelation..." The Mirror"...along comes Soundbug and it's fantastic. Simply stick a lead from your portable CD, MP3 player, laptop or whatever into the Soundbug and then attach it to a shiny solid surface such as a window or glass picture frame, MDF counter or metal. The Soundbug actually turns it into a speaker. Tell me that isn't the best idea you've heard in ages..."

Projector Clock


This projection clock or ceiling clock is an analogue clock equipped with a projector that creates an enlarged image of the clock face on any suitable projection screen, most often the ceiling or a wall.The advantage this projection clock has is that the clock can be placed almost anywhere, even on surfaces difficult to install traditional clocks. Using a halogen bulb, the clock projects a bright clear colour image, as large as 3 feet or more in diameter onto your wall or ceiling. This can be seen up to 15 metres in the dark or daylight, and is ideal, unless you have a room the size of a sports hall!With adjustable magnification you can vary and focus the size of the clock face, the clock is also sound activated, which means if you clap your hands you’ll have the calming and hypnotic site of the clock face projected onto the ceiling or wall in an instant. You then have the option for the projection to switch itself off after about 10-15 seconds, or you can make a noise loud enough to de-activate it. It does take quite a substantial sound to activate, so there’s no need to worry about it flashing on and off if you’re a heavy snorer!

Technical specifications
• The Projector Wall Clock is bright enough to be seen in broad daylight.
• Requires 1 AA battery (not included)
• Approximate dimensions: 15 x 30 x 20cm

Backwards Clock



Imagine starting your day at the end and working backwards to morning! Are you confused? Are your eyes playing tricks? No, this is a genuine clock and it's called the Backwards Clock.The Backwards Clock is the same as any other clock, but everything is backwards. Although it all looks normal enough at first glance, only two of the numbers are where you would expect them to be. The numbers on the face are the wrong way, the hands move the wrong way, even the second hand moves the wrong way! The glass-fronted frame is 28cm in diameter and is easy to read once hung on the wall. This clock makes daily life a little more interesting, gives visitors something to wonder about, and raises the occasional smile, which is not bad for a clock! You may also find that it’ll give you a bit more time in this 24/7 hectic world!

Bladerunner Helicopter


The remote control BladeRunner Helicopter is by far the best indoor flying machine we've seen so far. Charge it from the mains and off you go, it's that easy. The counter-rotating double blades make the Bladerunner easy to fly, as they stop any torque spin you would usually get from a standard single rotor helicopter. There's a trim slider on the side of the Bladerunner to control the amount of torque, so you simply adjust this to get a perfect balance.

The Bladerunner flies backwards, forwards left and right and even hovers, giving you time to figure out your next trick! It is made of a very lightweight material, therefore it is easier to control than other R/C helicopters. The Bladerunner comes assembled and ready to fly, all you have to do is practice your flying techniques, learn how to control it and you'll have a ball!

Laserpod Galaxy


Using the latest in LED and optical technology, Laserpod is the new light for the 21st Century. Laserpod is multi-functional doubling as both a light and a projector sending incredible laser waveforms into the space around you.

The Laserpod Galaxy is a new Laserpod design that was made for Galaxy radio especially for Ibiza. Galaxy offers a warmer, more intimate, colour blend, but with a resonance embedded in dance culture. The Galaxy Laserpod was featured in super-clubs like Pacha, Space and El Divino throughout the summer of 2005, as a signature for top DJ's including Roger Sanchez and Paul Oakenfold.

The feature that differs the Galaxy from the standard Laserpod are the mixture of red, blue and orange LED’s, the standard Laserpod has blue and purple LED’s. The effect this has is superb, it gives an added warm depth and a completely new dimension to the already superb Laserpod.

With the diffuser in place, Laserpod is a meditative ambient lamp, remove the diffuser and the effects can be projected onto a wall, ceiling or across an entire room. The Laserpod works on both battery and mains power, the mains adapter is included.

Use the glass refractor lens to bend the laser beams into swirling nebulas and gaseous clouds from far off planets. Beam yourself into a mind-boggling supernova of nebulas kaleidoscopic light.

Choose between two dazzling displays

• Red laser for scintillating astral projection
• Red laser / blue LED combination for awesome cosmic cloud effects

Using only red is also a good effect, but the blue and red is even better. If you place the refractor lens on top of the main unit, the red lights diffuse even more on the dome surface to provide even more spectacular effects.

Laserpod



Designed by the bloke who foisted the rocket-shaped lava lamp on us, assisted by über-snapper Mario Testino, this tube spits three lasers and a load of ultraviolet LEDs through a Swarovski crystal to conjure a groovy light effect. Using the latest in laser, LED and crystal optics, Laserpod brings science and nature together to create ever-changing organic lightforms of profound beauty.The Laserpod comes with the main unit, a small and a tall diffuser dome, a power adaptor, a Swarvorski crystal set into the base unit and a glass refractor lens. The domes can be place onto the main unit easily and fit tight but not too tight to be able to change them or remove them. With the diffuser in place, the Laserpod is a meditative ambient lamp; remove the diffuser and these effects can be projected onto a wall or across an entire room.Use the glass refractor lens to bend the laser beams into swirling nebulas and gaseous clouds from far off planets.
