Robomower for the modern caveman
Isn’t the modern caveman an oxymoron of sorts? That’s what we thought, but we realized that it also isn’t too far from the truth, either. After all, how many guys you know prefer to stay cooped up in their rooms, playing video games and munching on pizza and drinking beer all day long? Perhaps the married act differently, but for many teens as well as college students (and single yuppies), they have gone through such a phase in their lives before.
Mowing the lawn? That’s a chore that ought to be done by someone else, but if you don’t feel like interacting with more human beings, then there is the Robomower which will come in a variety of models, and all of them do their job well within their scope. All you need to do is press “GO”, and you can get back to your room, enjoying your newly purchased video game. We wonder whether this Robomower will be able to mow down zombies in case of an undead invasion…
Depending on the model, you will need to fork out anywhere from $1,999.99 to $2,799.99 for the Robomower, and it comes with a user controlled theft protection alarm system for added safety for your investment, especially if you don’t have a guard dog to help you out. Just to be on the safe side, the Robomower sports a tilt sensor safety feature that will stop rotating blades the moment the Robomow tilts.
TRAMP-It Jump Shoes
Want to literally put a spring in your step? That’s a snap to do, especially when you have the TRAMP-It Jump Shoes. This unique device will come in three different sizes, which are small, medium and large that will retail for £99.99, £109.99 and £119.99, respectively. They will give you unprecedented levels of speed and agility, letting you have more than just a simple spring in your steps. Made out of extremely strong material and yet is flexible, it will be worn under the sole, letting you jump further and bounce higher than you ever thought possible naturally.
Adults aren’t the only ones who will have fun with this strapped onto a pair of shoes, too bad Easter has passed, otherwise you can always play the role of being an Easter bunny, hopping to and fro to make sure that the rest of the kids in the neighborhood have gotten their chocolate candy.
Tentfinder Light
Since it is summer in some parts of the world, what better way than to spend your summer break than with your close ones in the great outdoors? The annual pilgrimage that many people take often ends up in this activity known as “camping”, and pitching a tent is all part of the fun. Well, going at it solo is one thing, but if you head for a popular campsite, it can get quite tough to remember just where you set up your little home away from home, since there are dozens of other domes all around. A late night trip to the toilet might just leave you with the same sinking feeling once you’re done just like when you “lost” your own car in a car park.
But with the £19.99 Tentfinder Light, this need not happen ever again – it comprises of a light that you can hook inside your tent, while a transponder of sorts with a button will illuminate the light’s three center LEDs with a single push. Pressing it the second time will illuminate just the outer ring of twenty LEDs, while a third push will get the entire lot going.
Since it has a 50 meter working range, it makes perfect sense that you’re nearby your tent before it can work. As it relies on low power-consumption LEDs instead of conventional bulbs, you won’t need to replace them, ever, and the batteries will be able to go the distance as well, giving up to 5 hours of light with all 23 LEDs turned on. That ought to give you ample time to look for the right tent, no?
Hand Pedal Float
You know the old proverb, you can’t have your cake and eat it, too. The same applies to this leisurely looking float that might just lull you into thinking that floating around on a pool with a good book in hand, a pair of shades, some Pina Colada and a generous amount of sunscreen splashed all over is the perfect idea of chilling out. Why not throw in an element of exercise with the Hand Pedal Float?
This raft lounger can be propelled in the direction of your choice using hand-powered propellers, where a couple of four-blade propellers (with one located on each side of the seat) will rotate with a simple turn, helping move the float forward, backward, or turning it in the direction that you want to. With an angled backrest, it will let you relax in a reclined manner, while 25′ sq. of float real estate ought to let you have more than enough space for outstretched limbs.
There are also two integrated cup holders that will keep your favorite drink upright. Made from heavy-gauge vinyl, it is puncture resistant (to a reasonable degree, of course), and isn’t that easy to fade. Are you willing to fork out $79.95 for the Hand Pedal Float?
Water Soaked Knee Hockey Rink
Have a backyard but not quite sure what to do with it? The Water Soaked Knee Hockey Rink will definitely fit the bill, since it offers you one-on-one fun (in a clean way) with your mate, letting the both of you square-off in a sliding, water-soaked game of knee hockey. Knee hockey – you read that right, will involve you using those body parts that have seen many falls during your growing up years in order to slam the puck into the back of your opponent’s net.
There are 30 small nozzles that have been built straight into both sides of the rink, spraying 24″ high fountains of water which will saturate the surface and players so that slipping and jockeying for control will result in ecstatic laughter and plenty of fun. The oversized plastic puck isn’t going to hurt anyone when used properly, where each player will also have the added help of a soft plastic hockey stick in order to hold up a defense.
A garden hose will need to be attached to the rink for continuous water supply. Would you be willing to get all wet this summer with a $49.95 purchase?
Water Wars Water Pistol Game
Playing water pistols has just gotten more fun with the Water Wars Water Pistol Game. For those of you who grew up playing Laser Tag, you know just how fun that is, trying to zap your opponents from afar, with the vest and helmet they wear being legit targets. Since summer is here, how about playing a variation of Laser Tag with the Water Wars Water Pistol Game? Each $37 purchase will come with a couple of color changing vests, so you can tell whether your shots were accurate or not.
The kit comes with a couple of water pistols and of course, two vests, to get you started right out of the box. What’s weird is this – the vests will feature printed targets that will turn red wherever they come in contact with water, so make sure you aim properly and don’t be such a klutz to spill water all over yourself when you’re taking a break!
Just how do the vests work? Well, it isn’t magic, but instead they are printed with special ink which turns red when it gets wet, and when the shirt becomes completely red, that’s game over. Time to stash away a bucket of water as a “grenade” of sorts if you feel that you can’t take the heat. Of course, the vests will become white once again when they are dry.
Ten Person Water Totter
If you happen to be part of a really, really large family, and each time during the holiday season your uncles, aunts, siblings, nephews and nieces will congregate at your home due to this activity being a family tradition, why not offer something different to keep the little ones entertained this time around with the Ten Person Water Totter instead of letting them sit through yet another round of watching your wedding video while you adults sit down and talk elsewhere?
The Ten Person Water Totter needs no explanation really – this waterborne “toy”, so to speak, will be able to rock up to 10 people simultaneously, where five folks are meant to be positioned on either side, with all individuals grasping one of 20 built-in handles while using their respective body weight to rock the structure which stands 10′ above the water’s surface, splashing opponents in the process.
This is one resilient puppy thanks to the commercial-grade, 1,000 denier polyester fabric used which is sandwiched between two layers of 28 oz. PVC. Those who have some sort of military knowledge will be pleased to know that it goes through a similar same construction process for the material as with the inflatable boats used by the U.S. Navy Seals.
All seams are hot-air sealed, and the PVC has been specially treated to block damaging UV rays. The only drawback? It costs a rather hefty $4,000 to keep the little ones in your family happy.
Segway Rally Experience for Two
Have you ever gotten on a Segway before? The feeling is totally something else for first timers, and that is a given. Well, for those who want to experience a Segway and more can always fork out £39.50 for the “Segway Rally Experience for Two” from Firebox. This special offer might just be the perfect gift for your dad and you, or perhaps for you and your partner, letting you go head to head with another person on a custom-built rally course.
You will kick start the day with the basics being shared by a trained instructor. In that course, you will be able to pick up the relevant skills on how to handle obstacles, turn, stop, and most of all, go forward (as fast as the Segway can anyways). Once you have mastered the basics, you will be given the opportunity to let loose on the rally course as you attempt to clock up your best time.
The entire experience is touted to last for up to half an hour, but chances are good you would do well to make an allowance of 90 minutes. Once you’re done, you will be on the receiving end of a certificate and a group photo.
