mm-scoscheScosche Industries is a name that is well known when it comes to delivering award-winning consumer technology and car audio products and accessories. Well, their latest addition will see the expansion of the MagicMount system of magnetic, mobile device mounts, where it is known as the MagicMount Dash/Vent that will carry the part number MAGDV2. When merged with other kinds of MagicMount products, including the MagicMount Wall Charger or MagicMount Pro Home/Office, this particular range will be able to conveniently offer users with a complete, tangle-free system that can be used to mounting devices neatly regardless of whether you are at home, at the office or on the road.

Known as the “MM Dash and Vent” in short, it is ideal for summer travel, where the 2-in-1 MagicMount Dash/Vent will make use of Scosche’s award-winning MagicMount technology in order to ensure that a mobile device is mounted to a vehicle’s dash or most vent types. The MagicMount Dash/Vent base can be mounted to the dash, or have the MagicMount itself be left in that position or removed and then moved to the vent by sliding the magnetic head off the base and sliding it onto the slats of the vent. The magnetic head can also double up as a kickstand on a hotel nightstand or airline tray.

The MagicMount Dash/Vent base will make use of StickGrip material so that it will remain securely held to the surface, sporting a soft touch, rubber lock-nut that can deliver secure positioning as well as a four-axis adjustable angle so that it can comfortably position a mobile device regardless of the angle. It is not only easy-to-use, but versatile as well, since it makes use of powerful rare-earth Neodymium magnets. These magnets will ensure protection for your mobile devices while maintaining a tight grip. Just like all other MagicMount products, it will ship alongside a large and small MagicPlate metal plate that can mount a smartphone and tablet, among others. The $24.99 MagicMount Dash/Vent is already readily available if you would like to accessorize your car.

eve-degreeElgato has revealed a brand new device that will certainly go down well with those of us who live in a place that has a tropical climate, calling it the Eve Degree temperature and humidity monitor. What makes this particular device so interesting? Well, it is not only a run-of-the-mill temperature and humidity monitor, but it is a model that sports a breathtaking design as well as an impressive feature set. We are talking about throwing in state-of-the-art sensors, revolutionary HomeKit technology, as well as a really large LCD display that arrives in a stunning anodized aluminum body.

Not only that, it will also come with a touch of elegance that will be evident regardless of which particular room you decide to place it in, or even if you think that it would have a better place outdoors. Eve Degree basically empowers you with insights concerning temperature as well as humidity, and all of this information are sent right to your iPhone or iPad. The Eve app itself stashes away and visualizes current and past climate data via eye-opening graphs which will facilitate precise climate monitoring. This is also beneficial to functional spaces such as greenhouses or wine cellars.

Apart from that, courtesy of Bluetooth low energy technology, power will be drawn from a long-lasting, replaceable battery. This means all kinds of direct communication with your iOS device would do away with the need for a bridge or gateway. The Eve Degree will be available from June 6 onward with a recommended retail price of $69.95 apiece. I suppose you can call the Eve Degree to be one of the higher end thermometers in the market, but the fact that it can be seamlessly integrated into the iPhone is a testament to its technological advancement and capability. Any takers?

The Multi-Functional Dog Shower – Life doesn’t have to be ruff

Multi-Functional Dog Shower

When you have a dog, it’s like raising a human who is perpetually 6 years old. They’re smart, but they are constantly trying to test their boundaries with what they can get away with. More importantly to dogs, how much trouble can they get into and still get treats in the same day. They try to eat things they shouldn’t, go to the bathroom in places they know they’re not supposed to, and rub their butts across the carpet, but when they make that cute face at you with the big round eyes full of love, it makes it all worth it (…usually).

If your little fur-child seems to enjoy romping out in the mud or coming home smelling less than pleasant, you probably want to give them a bath. Instead of having to live through those comedic movie scenes of a dog covered in bubbles running all over the house, you could instead get this Multi-Functional Dog Shower. This will attach to your home shower or garden hose, letting you choose how much cleanup after bath time you want to risk.

This comes with an adapter for indoor or outdoor use, it’s ergonomically designed to easily fit your hand, and will feel more like a massage to your dog than a bath. If anything, they’ll think they did something right with all the dedicated attention they’ll get. This is going to cost you $19.99, and will hopefully only need to be used once a month. For your sake.

The Visu-Temp gives you the perfect shower every morning

VisuTemp

When you’re on the go so much that sitting down feels like vacation, every moment you’re not working is a zen experience. Your morning shower after a workout is a time where you get to enjoy nothing but water pressure, warmth, and the sound of rushing water. If this is the time where you let yourself relax fully, then making sure it’s the perfect experience every time would likely be worth the added comfort, whatever the cost may be.

Standard bathroom fixtures aren’t going to provide this experience for you, which is where the Visu-Temp comes in. This has an easy-to-read display and a built-in thermometer that will let you get to your exact temperature every time. Not only will this let you get a precise amount of warm and cool, but it also has a pressure-balancing valve behind the wall that will shut down water flow if there should happen to be a loss of hot or cold water.

To make sure you get what you want every time, there’s an adjustable stop screw to limit the handle turn, so you don’t even have to think to get it right every time. This is not an easy trinket to come by, costing around $407, and you’ll likely need some help with installation as well. It’s ideal for those who are shower connoisseurs or the elderly who are temperature sensitive, so you’ll want to think long and hard before spending your money on this luxury.

The Knog Oi Bicycle Bell politely moves pedestrians from your path

Kong Oi Bicycle Bell

Once you add riding a bike to your daily routine, you start to realize what accessories you would benefit from. If you live out in the country with limited street lighting, then adding visibility will be your priority. If you’re in a bigger city, visibility will be equally important, but navigating your way through hoards of pedestrians will be another aspect to worry about.

If you want to politely get people to move out of your way without blasting an air horn, the Kong Oi Bicycle Bell could move them of their own accord. This is a small circle that you can fit on any type of bicycle bar, and you only need to pull back the tab and release it to get a clear bell sound. It’s not anything like the obnoxious bike bells you’ve heard in the past, and take on more of a wind chime approach, sounding pleasant, light, but crisp.

This comes in large and small, fitting 22.2mm bars or 23.8-31.8mm bars. The size will affect the price, which is in a range of $12.99-$27.99, and it comes in black, brass, copper, and silver. These are made of stainless steel, high tensile springs, aircraft grade aluminum ringers, a reinforced nylon mount, and are sure to make anything who hears them move out of the way.
