Water And Light Lawn Show

by Edwin

If you’re one of the luckier ones out there who stay in a place that has a lawn, here is something that might just be right up your alley – the Water And Light Lawn Show. What does this do? We’re pretty sure that the name itself is a dead giveaway, but as an added community service, here is a more detailed explanation on what it does.

This mister is able to cast a color-changing spray, where it will turn your normal, everyday lawn into an effervescent water and light show. Whenever there is water that flows through the mister, it will propel a turbine generator which will in turn power the color changing LEDs while pressurizing the water. As a result of that, your eyes will be able to enjoy a 6.5′ high by 19.3′ wide plume of fine mist which seamlessly transits from red to blue to green to yellow to purple.

The lightweight, diffuse mist won’t cause havoc among your delicate flower petals and seedlings, and even better is it won’t let your labrador get too excited since it won’t pool or create run off like a sprinkler. Seems to be the perfect pre-summer purchase at $49.95 a pop.

Four Attractant Mosquito Trap

by Edwin

Certain mosquitoes do carry some deadly diseases, and it goes without saying that they are a pest which we could all do without. I’m not too sure how it will affect the overall ecological system though, but surely frogs and other carnivores who feast on mosquitoes can find other insects to keep themselves full?

Us as humans can do our part to make sure that these little critters will not be able to feast on our blood for long, especially when we’re outdoors, with the Four Attractant Mosquito Trap. This unique device will emit light, vibrations, heat, and a scent which will be able to attract and kill mosquitoes across the length and breadth of one acre.

Buffet Food Warming Lamp

by Edwin

For socialites who tend to host many parties throughout the year, surely a formal sit down dinner each time isn’t something that everyone looks forward to. There should be opportunities for you to throw a buffet, and when that happens, you would definitely need the Buffet Food Warming Lamp. Let’s face the facts – who here likes cold food anyways? This is the reason for its existence, as the food heat lamp can tilt 30º and adjust itself from 5″ to 15″ high to provide precise, direct heat which keeps buffet-style food at the optimal serving temperature. The lamp shade itself will lock into place at any angle right above a cutting board in order to keep prime rib hot , either that or it can be placed above a chafing dish so that you won’t need to go through the hassle of jellied alcohol candles. A restaurant-grade 250-watt infrared bulb can reach temperatures of 347º F, as it casts heat evenly onto food to eliminate hot or cold spots while keeping foodstuffs above 140º F, which is the same temperature restaurants use to keep food hot without sacrificing its moisture. The Buffet Food Warming Lamp comes in durable stainless steel and will set you back by $149.95.

Zippo Emergency Fire Starter Kit

by Edwin



“I’m a firestarter, twisted firestarter!” Who could ever forget the lyrics to that song by The Prodigy? Well, the closet pyromaniac in you might find this brightly colored Zippo Emergency Fire Starter Kit to be worth a purchase, since we all know that you can’t blow a Zippo out, not to mention it being a whole lot more reliable to light up camp fires instead of using old school firestarters. You need not suffer from cold and damp conditions any more since the Zippo Fire Starter Kit will come with waxed tinder sticks. At £19.95, the Zippo Emergency Fire Starter Kit is the fuss-free method to light fires, being not only quick but reliable to make it an essential outdoor camping tool. All you need would be to pull out a waxed tinder stick, fray the edges and follow it up with the flint-wheel. All tinder sticks are lovingly kept within the waterproof orange case so that everything will remain dry, no matter how torrential the rain outside is.

Emerson’s Indoor and Outdoor Bug Zapper

by Ally

All summer long I’ve had the company of moths and other flying insects inside of my home thanks to the design of my screens.  It’s a rental, so you just sort of deal with it by keeping a fly swatter handy.  I’d joked many times that we needed an indoor/outdoor bug zapper, thinking no one would ever create such a thing.  Well apparently one does exist.

Lawnmower is world’s fastest, zips by at 96MPH

by Edwin



You know that you are in for a torrid time when your lawnmower can go a whole lot faster than your motorbike. After all, Bobby Cleveland’s crazy idea of kitting out his lawnmower has become reality, where it will go about (on even ground, obviously) at a whopping 96MPH, making it the fastest lawnmower in the world, hands down. Talk about trying to get the chores done quickly! Hopefully at that kind of insane speeds, you won’t run into a stone while riding on it, or cut off several toes and mole heads in the process without realizing so. For those who would like to have one of these puppies at home, chances are you will need to have a lawn that is the same size as that of a football field just to get it up to speed.

Three Point Detecting Basketball Shootout

by Edwin

Love shooting some hoops? You won’t go wrong then with the Three Point Detecting Basketball Shootout, where it will be able to make the right calls, knowing whether you’ve shot a three pointer or not. This unique basketball shooting game can do so thanks to a pressure-sensitive mat which is capable of detecting whether competitors have shot from two- or three-point range, while adding to the corresponding total without any room for human error. This will make the game a whole lot cleaner, but it does take away the human element of tension when wrong calls are made, opening the door to disputes and debates many years down the road. You can choose to compete head-to-head or against the clock depending on which area you would like to improve. Features include a sturdy tubular steel frame, an electronic scoreboard, and the all-important countdown clock. You can bring home this unique sporting equipment for $149.95 from Hammacher.
