These must be the weirdest and strangest cell phone straps I have ever seen. Yet, I can see why people might like them. There are 8 to collect including my favorite the one with the visible insides. Here is also a video ad.
Narcisse Mirrors
Artists and designers including Matali Crasset, 5.5 Designers, Geneviève Gauckler, Ich&Kar, Rolito, Tado, Antoine+Manuel, Pierre Marie, Ana Mir+Emili Padròs designed the Narcisse mirror collection. The purpose of these designs was to free the mirrors from traditional frame. I Have to say the new designs are really interesting. A especially like the Alice in Wonderland mirror.
Acabion GTBO
Although Acabion GTBO is gas powered it is very fuel-efficient. What struck me about it is the power – 750 hp and 700 lbs vehicle this results in more than 2,100 hp per ton. If you want to compare, the famous Bugatti Veyron has about 500 hp per ton, F1 cars have about 1,500 hp per ton. Max speed of Acabion GTBO is 340 mph at half throttle, governor limited. It does 0 to 300 mph in less than 30 sec.
The Acabion GTBO minimizes weight and maximizes power and aerodynamic efficiency.
100 mph at 1.7% throttle and 100 miles per gallon.
150 mph at 4.3% throttle and 62 miles per gallon.
250 mph at 17% throttle and 25 miles per gallon.
There is also an electric version of the Acabion for city use with distances up to 300 miles. You might think that it isn’t safe to drive and you might be right. However nothing is safe at 300 mph.
Dexia Tower
During daytime Dexia tower in Brussels is an ordinary building, but at night it becomes a light show. The building can be used to show tomorrows weather – temperature and wind. It sure bits watching the weather channel. It’s also possible to make you own light show from a touch screen near the building. Here’s how it works the 4,200 of 6,000 windows have lighting installations consisting of 12 light bulbs, each with 3 LEDs – a green, a red and a blue. Also these windows have special blinds when closed allow the LED’s to illuminate the whole window. Dexia tower is also energy efficient, 1 LED uses 1 watt. Lighting a stadium costs seven times more then Dexia Tower
USB heating gloves
I’m sure many people have been in a situation when an office co-worked forgot to close the window for the night and when you get to the office the next day it’s freezing cold. Here’s a gadget to help you freely use a mouse or type and defrost your hands at the same time – USB heating gloves. You can heat them till 53 °C, they work under any USB device. Pretty neat, considering winter is here, and it’s getting cold outside.
Eco Friendly Christmas Tree Decorations
Being eco-friendly is becoming more and more popular and that is good. Now you can decorate your Christmas tree with these recycled CD’s and circuits decorations. The CD decorations and the metal on the circuit ones will reflects the light of you low energy Christmas tree lights. You can even make these yourself all it takes is a bit of imagination. Actually, I think even a whole, round CD will look good on a tree with lights.
Tesla X-Mas Tree
Peter a 1st year uni physics dropout from Australia have constructed this strange and cool Christmas tree. On it’s own it’s just a steel frame, which by the way looks nothing like tree. It all changes when you hook up a Tesla generator to it.
