360-Degrees of chill for real “fanboys”

Picture_2.png

In the summer, when you and your buddies are chilling by the fan, there seems to always be a fight to who gets to sit in front of the cool air flow. I mean, most fans turn, like, 90 degrees, if that. The 360-degree Fan adds a whole new definition to the word Fanboy.

With 360-degrees of coolness, this fan might not make a all around cooler temperature than any other fan, but it will sure as hell cool a lot more people without a fist fight breaking out if it’s placed strategically. You can pick this up for $240 or you can just buy a lot of normal fans and duct tape them together. It’s your choice. — Andrew Dobrow

Wide-screen Outdoor Theater probably not as good as made to look

outdoor_theater1.png

You know how in fast food ads, the food is always made to look like a perfect specimen of slightly cooked processed beef, but in actuality you’re getting the ugliest meal ever consumed? Something tells us this wide-screen outdoor projector is being advertised along the same lines. In all appearances, it looks like a perfect home theater to have a joyous day with family, outside watching a flick.

What they don’t show you is hat coming over the mountain to the rear of the camera are imposing storm clouds, coming to destroy your state of the art, high definition, white vinyl screen made with mesh-enforced PVC. Sure, it SAYS that its cinema quality, but do they mention that if its not used at a specific time, the lighting is all wrong and the screen is barely watchable? I think not. This catastrophe waiting to happen will cost you $2,400 for the 8 footer and $3,000 for the 12 footer. — Andrew Dobrow

Mahogany Charging Station: Power with gusto, cost is mucho

Filed under: Design, Household

mahogany charging station

Are you the type of guy that has both a love for gadgets, but also likes to have the class of Mahogany stained furniture? If you are, odds are that most charging stations are not very fit to have a place in your home.

With the Frontgate Mahogany Charging Station, style just happens to be a nice extra touch. Don’t think that it lacks at all in the actual tech side of its architecture. The Station has 4 charging ports, made to charge cellphones, iPods, PDAs, and other portable media devices.

The Station also has 4 drawers for you to shovel all your crap into, along with a little storage pit (we’re sure there’s a more elegant name for it that we just don’t know). The surge-protecting power strip is conspicuously hidden within the Mahogany, which is actually Cherry Wood with a Mahogany stain.

The station weighs a meager 7 lbs, so it’s pretty easy to transport if a move is in order. The largest part about this thing is probobly its price. A whopping $150 for pieces of wood and a surge-protector. — Andrew Dobrow
