Instant Flat Tire Sealer And Inflator
I have gone through my fair share of flat tires in the past 10 years since getting my license, and it is always a hassle to take out the replacement tire. Soiling my hands is not an issue, but to sweat in the tropical heat at the side of a dusty road while jacking up the car? That, I absolutely loathe. Still, an electronic jack would be useful, and just in case no motor workshops are open during that day, or I happen to be stranded in some backwater area, the $59.95 Instant Flat Tire Sealer And Inflator would definitely come in handy after some hard driving.
This device is capable of patching and inflating a flat tire in just 10 minutes, and you do not even need to lift the car or remove the tire. After all, it has a built-in compressor that pumps air and the included sealant through the flat tire’s air valve, making sure the tire is patched and inflated at the same time. Using a patented water-based nano-fiber sealant, it is capable of patching holes up to 1/4″ wide and a built-in pressure gauge will let you know whether the tire has been inflated to its optimal air pressure. Just bear in mind that this is not a permanent solution – it is recommended that you replace your patched tires, as they can be driven up to 125 miles.
Electronic Pedaler helps you burn those fats
The recent holidays have certainly seen many of us feasting more than fasting, and no doubt the lack of exercise will see us losing the battle of the bulge – especially around the waist and thighs. It is time to get on with the program and step up all efforts, so here is the $159.99 Electronic Pedaler that might just aid you in your “fight”. Instead of making your way to the gym, waiting for a particular machine to be available, the Electronic Pedaler can be used in the comfort of your home, where it is touted to improve users’ muscle tone and cardio strength, allowing you to work out even when you have the TV turned on and your favorite sitcom is being played.
You can choose from “manual” mode or switch to “automatic” for a whisper-quiet, power-assisted workout, making it ideal for just about anyone with limited mobility. Basically, it will “coax” the legs to cycle smoothly without applying any forceful, jerky movements, starting from a relatively easy 35 rpm . Once you feel that you are ready to step up a level, there is the option to speed up incrementally to a more robust 65 rpm. It takes around 15 minutes each day to improve your muscle strength and range of motion in the legs and arms/shoulders. There is also an easy-to-read LCD control panel that shows the number of calories burned, “distance” covered, time elapsed and rpms.

Star Trek Electronic Door Chime
Calling all Trekkies – it is time you introduced a change to your home, letting all and sundry know just which is your favorite sci-fi series of all time.

This motion-sensitive door chime will target fans of the Star Trek series and then some, where it can be mounted on either side of a door. Whenever someone triggers it, you will be alerted – regardless of whether that is a Klingon, Vulcan, or other forms of life right at your doorstep.

Either way, you will be alerted of a (non-)hostile presence right at the front of your home, so you will be able to know whether to take evasive action or to welcome him/her/it in for a diplomatic discussion. Being an officially licensed Star Trek collectible, the Star Trek Electronic Door Chime is powered by half a dozen AA batteries.
