Binary Clock


Some bright spark fed up with following convention decided to apply binary principles to time and came up with the Binary Clock. It really is easy to understand and we promise you will be amazed by it. The clock uses LEDs to represent the time. The six columns of LEDs represent the hours minutes and seconds. Believe us when we tell you that any number between 1 and 59 can be represented. The rows when read in binary context start at one then double as you rise e.g. 1 then 2 then 4 then 8. Now we'll really confuse you and tell you that the default setting is in powers of two but you can also set it to true binary and get every minute displayed. Now then!! If you understand that lot, then maybe you should be working for NASA and if you don't understand, have no fear, the Binary Clock comes with simple instructions. You could also try learning Japanese or studying cranial surgery while blindfolded, we hear that's quite easy!Forgetting the fact that it takes a little getting used too there are lots of plus points to this Binary Clock. It also looks superb, is addictive, entertaining and its lots of fun. You can't say that about many clocks can you!

Lav Nav


For every problem in this world there’s someone out there working on a solution. We’re happy to announce that thanks to the Lav Nav one of these problems has been solved. No longer does anyone have to fumble in the dark to find ... the toilet. For those of you who find hunting around for the light switch in the middle of the night a bit of a pain, or that the light is painfully bright on your poor eye balls after waking up from a deep sleep, then this revolutionary Lavatory Navigation night light is just what you’re looking for!Lav Nav attaches firmly to the lid of your toilet using the adhesive tape that is included. It’s smart, energy-efficient and makes the bathroom safe and easy to use at night, keeping everyone happy! When you approach the toilet in the dark it turns itself on, and when you leave it turns itself off. Better still, it cleverly uses red and green LEDs to show the position of the toilet seat, red when the seat is up, and green when the seat is down.LavNav is not your ordinary gadget, but you’ll be quite surprised at how useful it actually is, it makes the toilet safe and easy to see at night, and shines a gentle light where you need it, when you need it!
