The AV world is moving fast and sometimes it’s hard for companies to keep up; different audio and video formats make the player you bought last year look dated today. And if you’re taking your home cinema seriously you also need a mighty amplifier the size of a microwave oven to power all those speakers.
Or do you…?
Somehow or other, people are drawn to activities that require some level of prediction such as betting (I personally predicted a 2-1 win over the Italians by the French at this summer’s World Cup but was sorely wrong) and weather reports. Nearly everyone relies on the weather reporter as they plan out the next day’s activities such as leaving the clothes out to dry before heading off to work or playing a round of golf. This is where home gadgets like the Oregon Scientific Weather Forecaster comes in handy, capable of giving you what the news report will minus the irritating advertisements.
Most of us often detest the amount of control our parents exert over our lives during our younger days, as their lectures are more often than not littered with “do nots” rather than “go ahead”. We think that they are old-fashioned and do not understand why a young person requires the amount of freedom to hang out with one’s friends until the wee hours of the morning. Thankfully, karma has a way of placing us in our parents’ shoes when we ourselves behold a bundle of joy in our arms, promising to take good care of our kid, forming a list of “do nots” in our minds already. This is where the OnGuard Kids Personal Safety Alert watch comes in handy as you cannot be around your kid all the time.
We might give the Grim Reaper a passing thought throughout our fleeting lives, but often when our time is up, we are not prepared to leave this world. Instead of having listen to constant fire and brimstone messages, why not carry a timepiece that reminds you of your impending doom? The Memento Mori Death Watch was created in 1810 and makes for the perfect timepiece to remind you of how short our lives here on earth are. This is definitely not a watch that you can find at any watch shop, boasting a unique design of a miniature human skull.
We already covered a great amount of alarm clocks with the most special ones being the Grenade and the Flying alarms, these two really make you get out of bed in order to turn the alarm off so you can start the 10 minute siesta before bath/breakfast. Another honorable mention goes to the Rev-Olution alarm that fits the car fanatics style and I’m sure they love it.
But… enough talking about other alarm clocks, so lets start today’s subject – the Verilux Rise & Shine Natural Alarm Clock.
As you can see on the image this is a 2-in-1 gadget that combines a stylish bedside lamp + alarm clock (it can be considered a 3-in-1 gadget since you can listen to radio as well.), this means that you will probably save space on your bedside table, and money too. Read the rest of this entry »
It seems that as more and more people are affluent enough to purchase cellphones, they tend to shun picking up a watch as the cellphone already comes with a built-in clock that tells the time equally well. The only drawback would be the hassle of dragging the handset out of the pocket each time you want to see how many minutes are there left before you head home from work after a stressful day. Hence, the once-faithful watch has been relegated to the position of a fashionable timepiece for most, and a collectors’ item for a selected, privileged few.
We’re sure that faithful readers of Coolest Gadgets have seen their fair share of wacky alarm clocks, but has anyone actually seen something as interesting as this? The aptly named Crazy Blender Alarm Clock is unlike any of its slumber-killing ancestors, rousing you from your dreams of being in the Bahamas, sipping on a Pina Colada while lounging in your dream yacht in the most unruly and uncivilized manner possible. If you thought that an ordinary blender at work was loud enough to generate a sonic boom, be prepared to face something much worse with the Crazy Blender Alarm Clock.
