Blow your Food to Kingdom Come with the Spice Gun

Spice Gun Conceptual Model
For any would be kitchen maestros out there, this could be the thing for you. The spice gun is a clever little idea that allows you to blast your food with spices. Simply put:

Spice gun is different from the other casters, it has more fun! When you pull the trigger to compress the air in the air bag the handspike will push the bottom of the seasoning bottle to make the nozzle in the turntable to retract and spray the seasoning.

I do a lot of cooking in my extended seasonal vacations and I can see this thing serving a purpose. Pack it full of seasonings for some barbecue fun. Blast your spices into the cavity of a chicken without getting your hands dirty. Load it up with dried herbs and fire them over a pizza (I like fresh herbs as much as the next man but they are just too damned expensive in winter here in Japan). I want one of these, if it ever makes its way from a concept to store shelves, I am buying one

Cyberdyne Cinema, I Want One of These

Cyberdyne Theater Pic 1

This is without a doubt the coolest home theater setup I have seen in a long, long time. Electronic House featured this Terminator inspired home theater recently. I have got to say, Darren Mortenson, the man behind this particular piece of theater magic, is a genius. It is designed to look like a sci-fi set and includes a bunch of cool little props and pieces of memorabilia. The project was put together on a reasonable budget. Looking through at the products in the component list, there is nothing there that is outlandishly expensive. The DIY aspect makes this project incredibly cool. You see people outsourcing this kind of thing all the time, but Mortenson did it himself and became a licensed CEDIA installer in the process.

The 159-inch screen ought to bring his favorite movies to the screen larger than life and I probably would debate never going to an actual movie theater again if I had this in my basement. Seriously, I would trade just about everything that I own for this guy’s basement. This may be the product of a crazy obsession, but it is a crazy obsession that I like.  A ton of pictures and the full specs of the system after the jump. (more…)

Logitech Brings some iPod Funk

Logitech Pure-Fi Elite

Logitech is doing well with their expansion out of the PC peripherals market. Their new Pure-Fi Elite speaker system is the perfect balance of quality, performance and price. There comes a point with speaker systems where you pay a lot more for very little performance increase. Logitech generally manages to tread just short of that mark and deliver the goods.

With one-inch tweeters and four-inch long throw woofers, this is not going to compete with thousand dollar loudspeaker setups, but it is going to allow you to enjoy your music at a tasteful volume with much higher than average quality. It looks slick and stylish too, and considering the fact that they have gone ahead and thrown in an alarm clock function, I have to say that I am sold.

Price: $300 from Logitech, half that from Amazon

MJ Safety Solutions Bullet Resistant Backpacks Prove Fear Sells

The Bulletproof Backpack

 

Why would you want a bullet resistant backpack that features police level ballistic protection? MJ Safety solutions will tell you that it is because of the 229 people that were killed and 422 people that were injured in school violence. They go on to tell you that in almost 97% of those incidents the “MJ Safety Solutions backpack could have provided the ballistic protection that could have saved lives.”

The trouble that I have with a bulletproof backpack is that it only protects your back. It is only protecting half of your torso, so you have protection if someone shoots at you while you are walking or running away. Otherwise, you are out of luck. The price is $250, and I would expect that worried parents everywhere are coughing up the dollars.

Spiderman and Venom Walkie Talkies

Spiderman And Venom Walkie-Talkies

Forget that “age 3-10″ nonsense – geeks of all ages will find it hard to resist a set of walkie-talkies shaped like Spiderman and Venom.

Each character’s right arm turns into an antenna – all you need to do is lift the arm, click the button, and start talking. And if you think I ( a grown man ) would have any reservations about sitting around talking to a friend via a spiderman’s crotch, think again.

Price: $19.99
