HB Lamp – huge pencil lamp is perfect for those huge bright ideas

When you go to gift shops there’s always those giant pencils you can buy. They’re ridiculous. When are you ever going to write with that and what happens when the lead runs down? It’s obvious they’ll just end up consuming a ton of space and so I never buy them (even though I secretly want to. Deep down). Now Michael and George have finally created a giant pencil I can actually use with the HB Lamp.

Skull USB Hub – the perfect hub for medical students and nurses?

Skulls are very useful things. Not only do they look good with candles and cats, but you can also learn what goes where in an anatomical sense. They also look awesome hodling up a face and do a pretty good job of protecting our brain-meats. Usually their use is limited to a) protection of brain and b) decoration for Halloween. This Skull USB Hub though helps you move data via USB, not neurons.

ScanMarker Pen Scanner – an end to tedious textbook note taking

School is coming back. For some it’s already started. Times have changed  however, and now you need more than a pencil and notebook to start the year. You still need a notebook but increasingly you have to add a computer to the mix. Which is strange because most text are still in paper form. The ScanMarker Pen Scanner helps you bridge the gap from the physical world to the digital one.

4-in-1 Adapter – a multi-colored plug for every occasion

People who don’t leave their home countries don’t know the struggle of outlets. If you’ve traveled than you understand the issues that surround going from one place to a drastically different place. Go to plug in your curling iron and nope, that’s not the right shape. I’m buying everyone I know the 4-in-1 Adapter. Not just because it’s a cool travel adapter, but because it also makes it very easy to know which plug works where.

The Fridge – keeping you posted on when your food is due to go post date

I don’t generally share paid apps, since you can usually find something to do the same job for free, but this one should actually help you save money by keeping you from throwing out your perishables before their time. Because, let’s face it, it’s really hard to remember that those avocados don’t last forever. The Fridge app keeps you updated on when your fresh foods are about to go bad on you.

Bicycle Handlebar Portable Wind-Powered Generator Lamp – level up your cardio while you power up your phone

Whenever there’s a huge multiple days long power outage in a major city here, there’s always two types of photos that make their way to the internet. One of a house or shop that still has power and invites everyone to charge their phones on a series of extension cords. The second is the picture of the stationary bike generator. With the Bicycle Handlebar Portable Wind-Powered Generator Lamp, you can be your own generator with no need to stay stationary.

Flashtorch – 4100 lumens flashlight can also spark up your campfire

Ever played Alan Wake? If you haven’t, you should because it’s great. Anyway, you use flashlights to destroy your nightmares (that sounds like a children’s story but trust me, it is awesome). Of course in real life the only thing that flashlights can destroy are shadows. Unless you’re using the Flashtorch, then you can set real fires with your flashlight.
