Portable Desktop Fan



Powerful enough to keep you cool and quiet enough not to disturb you. This is exactly what you get with the Portable Desktop Fan.Keeping cool during the hot summer weather is anything but easy. Failing air conditioner units and noisy fans will be a thing of the past thanks to this grill free fan. The body is made of plastic, making it lightweight, the blades are made of soft pink foam so there’s no need for a grill, and because its foldable its really easy to store. We think you’ll agree it’s perfect in front of the pc at home or work, and equally suited to camping trips or holidays. Because it’s lightweight you can literally take it anywhere, and thanks to the adjustable angle and the two speed settings, you’ll be able to set the airflow to your specific requirements.Since it runs off 4 x 1.5volt ‘C’ batteries or a 6-volt DC adapter (not included) you’ll be able to take it anywhere.

XP3 Message Clock


This programmable XP3 Clock uses Persistence of Vision technology to create images floating in mid air. The messages are displayed by a built in wand that moves forwards and backwards very quick. The tip of the wand is covered in tiny LEDs (light emitting diodes), the wand moves approximately 16 times per second, this is fast enough so you cannot see it but slow enough so the LEDs leave a message as if it’s suspended in mid air.
The XP3 Clock features a programme where you can create your own personal message of up to 200 characters and schedule it for a specific date up to a year in advance, or you can choose to have them daily. Personal messages include 'get out of bed', 'Happy Valentines Day', 'Happy Mother's Day', 'Merry Christmas' and much more. In addition to messages you can also display virtual image flips, scrolls, fades, grows, and crumbles in all different directions, and it can do all this without hardly making a sound.

The message clock can be seen at http://www.crazyaboutgadgets.com/detail.asp?ID=402
