Finding room for both an iPod dock and a lamp can be tough business when it comes to decking out your little end table. For iHome’s latest idea, the iLamp, preventing end table clutter will never be easier. It’s almost like every other iPod dock. It’s got a 6W speaker output and it differentiates by incorporating a bitchin’ light source for night reading.

Just like the iPod, the iLamp comes in a variety of different colors that will appeal to your ever changing lifestyle. Are you a vampire? Blood red is for you. Emo? Emo blue. Lacking in the hygiene department? Disgusting green. Anyone and everyone can get down with this double whammy of light and sound goodness. It’ll just cost you $89.99.

I always find myself stubbing my toe when navigating through my room in the dark. It hurts like hell. If only I had this nightlight/charger for my iPhone. With the $40 dollar reviveLITE, I’d not only be rejuvenating my iPhone’s battery, but I’d also be saving my toenails from an otherwise gruesome deformity after colliding with an unforeseen object.

Developed by Scosche Industries, this charger is not just exclusive to the iPhone, it will also charge iPods as well. This is where I say goodbye to stubbed toes and hello to freshly charged Apple gadgets. It comes in both black and white. So, even if you were the only one who purchased the special edition U2 iPod, you still can have a nightlight/charger to match.

Ryan was showing me some video of a hornet killing a cicada whilst we discussed posts about bugs. Then, I suddenly stumbled upon this video of a glowing trilobite beetle. Watch how it lights up in the dark like a raver’s glowstick. The ‘net doesn’t say too much about the creature but I did find this information on Mahalo:

The Trilobite Beetle is a beetle from Borneo that resembles the extinct Trilobite. The short YouTube video of the oddly shaped insect has been viewed more than 200,000 times. Borneo, Southeast Asian island on which the beetle resides, is renowned for its abundant flora and fauna.

I’d like to scoop 20 of these suckers up and throw them in a jar with some grass and air holes. Boom. Instant DIY night light.

Though the fundamentally awesome concept of time and space appears intriguing to both stoners and astrophysicists, only one of two groups can afford this particular watch. Designed by Swiss watchmaker Romain Jerome, the Day&Night watch offers (wait for it) only two modes of time: day and night.

The Wall Street Journal explains how it works in exceptional detail:

The watch features two tourbillons — devices that overcome the ill effects of earth’s gravity on a watch’s accuracy — connected by a differential mechanism. Instead of hands, the watch has a “contemplative tourbillon operation whereby the ‘Day’ tourbillon operates for 12 hours to symbolize working life, while the ‘Night’ tourbillon takes over afterward to represent an individual’s private time.

Call me crazy, but ridiculous price aside, I love the concept that this watch is going for. The idea of transitioning time twice throughout a 24-hour period is appealing and would make for a wonderful way to segue into the evenings. If you’re looking to get one, I apologize. They sold out in a mere 48-hours.

You didn’t realize the joke in “I Wear My Sunglasses At Night”, did you? Luckily for you, you now get to be the only person in the group of your friends to think that these glasses will make you as cool as Corey Hart. The glasses (not sunglasses) really show off their abilities when you step into the clubs with neon lights everywhere. The bars you see here aren’t the only designs offered; you can choose from different patterns, colors, and intensity. Please, don’t let anyone catch you wearing these darkglasses during the day. They won’t be helping you fight the sun at all, they don’t have any UV protection at all. Zip, nada. So how much will you pay? 30 euros say that you won’t be buying a pair of these anytime soon. –Nik Gomez
