This USB R2-D2 humidifier will turn 8oz of water into humidifying steam for around $21. While it seems to be a Japan-only product, NCSX have been nice enough to provide them to customers further afield.
We write about a lot of stuff here at Uberreview, but there are some things that tickle my fancy a little more than others, so if you have a few minutes to indulge me, please check out our top ten posts of February. They are in no particular order, other than being ordered reverse chronologically, albeit slightly imperfectly.
Read on for our top ten posts of February. (more…)
Crabfu has gone out and built himself an R2-D2 steambot, which he is calling R2-S2. The result is a cool looking R/C bot with a steam engine. [Botjunkie]
This is one of those, “Why didn’t anyone make one of these before?” ideas. R2-D2’s shape is perfect as a water bottle, as is evidenced by this product from Tanomi in Japan. R2’s head flips back to reveal a drinking straw for the plastic bottle. I am so tempted to part with the ¥3,300 that this thing costs.
Price: ¥3,300 which is about $37 in today’s money, but given Obama’s strong dollar policy, it should get cheaper. [Tanomi via Technabob, Geek Alerts]
