I can’t type on a smartphone keyboard to save my life. My fingers are too big and I end up with periods and spaces all in the text that I didn’t want or need. You can carry a keyboard to make things easier, but that isn’t always convenient.

I spent many an hour building and choosing model kits growing up and they always seemed to be the Revell brand. I didn’t know that the company made anything other than models, but these days it has a full line of RC vehicles as well.

It always surprises me how little thought people put into their beds despite the fact that poor sleep can ruin everything about your life. I’d bet I’m not the only married person who has a significant other who likes a drastically different temperature than I do in the house.

How many iPhone cases have a high-quality speaker and a battery pack built in? None that I can think of. The Peri Duo smartphone case has done it. It doesn’t just give you an upgraded audio experience, but also charges your phone. The case is pretty cool looking with a retro-modern style.

Since America is not nearly fat enough, the Couch Coaster is here to make sure that you are never far from a sugary drink or a beer. It is basically nothing more than a piece of molded silicone with weighted arms that hangs over the sides of an armrest to give you another place to rest your drink. It also sports a cutout in the back to accommodate coffee mug handles.

I’d wager a lot of you out there know what EDC stands for. If you don’t, it stands for “Everyday Carry.” In other words, EDC is the stuff that we all take with us on a daily basis.

Everything is going connected today, from your appliances in the kitchen to the toothbrush you use in the bathroom. Philips sent me over their new Sonicare FlexCare Platinum Connected Toothbrush for me to try out. The version I have includes a UV cleaner to help keep germs at bay.

Surfboards are great and all, but they are cumbersome to transport from beach to beach. Well, the Lampuga AIR is an inflatable surfboard with handlebars and a 15HP electric jet-ski style motor which can propel you up to 30MPH.

I’ve never visited England, but if what I see on movies and TV is true, it rains there all the time. That means the English have to cart around an umbrella much of the time or risk being soaked.

This unique kitchen appliance proves that there is a God and that he wants us to eat bacon. Plenty and plenty of bacon. Let this sink in for a moment: It’s a toaster just for bacon.

No single droid has proved to be as versatile as R2-D2. BB-8 has nothing on him. R2 has hacked into the Death Star Computer, rescued Luke by hiding a lightsaber in his body, carried the Death Star plans, and now R2 does another trick up his droid sleeves.

Darth Vader finds your lack of sliced pizza disturbing. This Lightsaber Pizza Cutter with Sound will help. Because you don’t have enough novelty Star Wars kitchen items. One more won’t hurt. This pizza cutter looks like Darth Vader’s lightsaber, but unlike his weapon, it will cut your pizza without cutting your table in half too.

If you spend a lot of time outside where there are no power outlets, say golfing for instance, odds are you’ve run out of power at a bad time. A new charging system has landed called the Hyjax that is able to connect to any 8V to 24V battery – such as the ones in boats, motorcycles, lawn mowers, or golf carts, and use them to charge your USB devices. The charger is a long cord with alligator clamps on the ends like you see in a set of jumper cables.

If you love barbecue but hate standing over the grill all day, Char-Broil’s new SmartChef gas grill connects to a smartphone app so you can check on your dinner while doing something else. Now you really can be in two places at one time when grilling. The SmartChef TRU-Infrared Gas Grill sports stainless steel burners, a side burner for pots and pans, porcelain-coated grates for easy cleaning, and even glowing LED knobs for nighttime grilling.

So apparently, smart air fresheners are a thing now. Forget those Glade Plug-ins. Forget opening a window. Moodo is designed to customize your home’s scent whenever you want. It’s kind of like a Keurig machine for your nose. Moodo is basically a diffusion machine that will blow air through up to four aromatic capsules at a time, each one full of differently-scented crystals.

If you enjoy a good cup of tea, then you know that brewing is something to take seriously. Well, if you want a perfect cup of tea every time, the Teforia Smart Tea Infuser should do the trick. This system is designed to bring out the flavor of your tea so that it tastes like never before.
