Date Breath Checker

June 26th, 2009 by Mark R in Miscellaneous Gadgets, Mobile Phones

date-breath-checker-boxHave you ever been on your way to an important appointment, and stopped to smell your breath? Pretty impossible, isn’t it? I suppose you could use that trick where you breathe into your hand and sniff it, but the best you’re probably going to get out of that is the scent of your own hand.

This is why someone invented the Date Breath Checker, a technological way for you to check your own breath. All you need to do is turn it on, blow into it, and it gives you the readout.

The frowny face means that you shouldn’t have asked for the garlic and onions on the submarine sandwhich that you had for lunch, and the smiley face…well, you get the idea.

Levi-Table

June 26th, 2009 by Mark R in Conceptual Gadgets, Home Gadgets

levi-table-by-donald-dahl-thumb-550x280-19911We at Coolest Gadgets love to report on any technology that allows things to float in air. Yes, from the crazy conceptual Void LP Player to the Levitron Revolution, the future is completely “in the air”, so to speak.

So why not have a whole table that can float in air? Well, we are probably a long way from a table that hovers without any legs, but the Levi-Table is probably the next best thing.

Mini Ball USB Speaker has built-in sound card

June 26th, 2009 by Ally in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

mini-ball-usb-sound-card_3

Now this is a gadget that keeps things nice and simple.  If you for some reason don’t have a sound card, it still allows for you to listen to your music.  It has a built-in sound card along with a tiny speaker.  It’s not going to have fantastic sound, but when you don’t have a sound card, things can get fairly desperate.  This would be a nice and affordable temporary fix for the issue.  That or if you’re not really worried about it, it could be a permanent fix.

LED Color Changing Ice Bucket with Remote Control

June 26th, 2009 by Ally in Home Gadgets

rc-ice-bucket

There are already plenty of forms of garden lighting, but now even your ice bucket can add a little mood lighting.  After all, why shouldn’t an ice bucket add to the atmosphere too?  Alright, so it is a little on the cheesy side of things.  However, it’s really no worse than a majority of the lights you find for sale that are meant to be outdoors in your garden area.  Plus, this does have a lot of customization features, so you can play down the cheesy factor.

The USB Artillery Hub

June 26th, 2009 by Ally in PC Gadgets, USB Gadgets

usb-artillery-hub

If you enjoy war games, then this USB hub would be great to put on your desk at work.  It can work as your hub and quietly remind you of the fun you can have at home if you just survive a few more hours at work.  Of course this is one of those hubs that won’t look nearly as cool the second it has USB devices plugged into its ports.

Meatball Grill Basket makes me want to whip out that credit card

June 26th, 2009 by James in Cooking Gadgets, Kitchen Gadgets
The Meatball Grill Basket brings flame broiled goodnews to spaghetti and meatballs.

The Meatball Grill Basket brings flame broiled goodnews to spaghetti and meatballs.

I’m a culinary disciple of the Food Network, particularly of Alton Brown. And as such, I have an aversion for “uni-taskers,” so-called kitchen gadgets that are only for one thing and spend 99% of their time just taking up space in your kitchen. As AB puts it, the only uni-tasker in your kitchen should be a fire extinguisher, just in case. But I’m Italian, and this Meatball Grill basket may force me to say “Not so fast, AB!”

Virtual HUD, what every private pilot has dreamed of.

VirtualHud gives heads up display to the private pilot

VirtualHud gives heads up display to the private pilot

Like every private private pilot, I have a dream of enjoying a flight with a heads up display so I can spend most of my time looking outside the window, rather than having my head buried in the instruments. And now, the technology for a HUD is now available which utilizes the plane’s propeller as a projection screen, and it’s called VirtualHud.
