Buzzer Alarm Clock

Remember that old  wire loop game, well somebody decided that would be a good idea for an alarm clock. This was made by a company called BigMouth Inc. Just like the old game you have to move the loop around the metal wire but this time if you lose an alarm goes off. You can buy one here:

It says it's unavailable right now but I've also found this at Dollarama if you want one.

USB Heated Cat Bed Keyboard

One problem cat owners have always had to deal with is the cat lying on the keyboard when you're trying to type stuff on the computer. As a cat owner myself I've never had this problem. For some reason my cat never decided to lie on keyboards. Anyway this keyboard connects to your computer through a usb cable (like every keyboard these days) and the more you type on another keyboard the more heated this one gets for your cat. Unfortunately you can't type with this keyboard. It's only for your cat to lie on. It was made by Meox Mix back in 2015. They never sold them in stores. The only way you could get this was to be one of the 100 people that we're selected to be sent this.

Lyfe Planter

It's been two years since my last post. Mostly because it's getting harder to find something that would be considered strange for electronics today. And because I forgot this blog existed. Anyway here is something new finally. This is called the Lyfe Planter. It's a levitating planter. For years many people have said they wanted levitating cars, computers, tvs, beds, etc. but I don't think planters were ever on that list. It was made by a company called Flyte and like most levitating objects it works by magnets.
You can buy one here:

Mycestro Wearable Mouse

It's been a long time since I wrote about strange computer mice on here. You wear this mouse on your index finger and you move the arrow by holding the side of it with your thumb.  According to the manufacturer's website the inventor (Nick Mastandrea) saw somebody struggling to use a normal computer mouse on an airplane and he came up with this idea. You can buy one here:

Wireless Mailbox Alert System

This is the Smarthome SELECT Wireless Mailbox Reminder and Mail Alert System. When somebody opens your mailbox it will alert you by lighting up or an annoying audio thing that will make your neighbours complain about you. And since it works from somebody opening your mailbox chances are you'll be alerted about mail when the wind opens your mailbox or some kid decides to just randomly open it on you to trick you. You can buy one here:

Cordless Electric Snow Blower Shovel

I know Spring just started and nobody wants to talk about winter anymore but I'm gonna talk about this anyway. During this winter I came up with the idea that we need a snow blower that is also a shovel. Unfortunately somebody else has already beat me to it and invented it and once again I didn't get to invent something. Unlike a normal snow blower you don't have to put oil or gas in this and there's no pull cords either. To make it work you just have to charge the battery. There isn't a point to buy this right now but you can buy one here:

or you can go to Home Depot and get one.

Nymi Band

In the past I've shown on here a usb device that requires you to say your password out loud or one that deletes everything if you type it in wrong. I have now found a wristband that lets you log onto your computer with your ECG (electrocardiogram). According to the site they decided to this instead of a fingerprint scanner because (as the tv show Mythbusters once proved) fingerprints can be easily copied with a piece of tape and than people can hack into your computer but your heartbeat can not be copied or replicated in some way. This isn't available yet but you can reserve one here:
