Isn’t this one of the cutest things you’ve ever seen in your life? I don’t know what it is about tiny things that makes them so adorable. I mean, this is a friggen’ lantern. It’s not like it’s a mini-unicorn vomiting rainbows or something awesome like that.

Regardless, the Mini LED Camping Lantern seems like a pretty rad tool and a great illumination source if you’re in a pinch. I usually just use my phone as a flashlight, but hey, you could always use some more light. Grab your own for only $7… for now. Muahahahahah. Ahem, sorry.

While I’m shopping for condoms with my fiancee, I put on a strong front. I make sure to announce in a loud voice that we are looking for the Magnum condoms, even though we need nothing of the sort. Shameful, I know, but hey, I’m a man.

This 0.6 inch condom was used to promote safe-sex to young people and apparently midgets and mice. Though it looks like it could serve as awesome revenge for our exes. “Yup, this is what he had to wear!” Keep her away from these. Just to be safe.

Sure, you could argue that this 6″ tall ASIMO action figure is only 1/8 the bot that the real ASIMO is, but mini-ASIMO would beg to differ. It’s the heart and soul of a robot that really matter! Everything else is just scrap metal.

The time for us to have a real ASIMO bot in our home will eventually come, but for now, I’d settle for the miniature. Oh, and ladies, he’s robotomically correct!

We’re not, what you might call, “living large” here at Gearfuse (unless we’re talking about our scarily huge genitals. Really, we’re monsters.) We’re lucky if we can have more than two friends over at once without feeling cramped. But that’s not to say we’re complaining. We have a little nook to call our own for the time being, and that’s more than others can say. Though it’s always nice to save a little extra room. Even five square feet makes a huge difference in small quarters.

This folding bed design by Nicola From Bern is an awesome option for limited living space. An angled frame and fiberglass-reinforced plastic tubes create a bed frame that can be adapted to different mattress sizes. It’s probably not the most convenient method of saving extra space (you could always get some clunky futon,) but its minimalistic design fits right in with a minimalistic lifestyle.

Looking for a way to impress all of the females at your New Years party but not tech savvy enough to make your own robot? Well, there will be plenty of champagne at your party, so why not turn those wasted corks into miniature chairs. The girls will think they’re cute and by showing them your creative side — the girls will think you’re cute, too!

Listen, dude. You’ve never had a better shot of getting laid on New Years than today. Heed my advice: buy a boat load of champagne, get everyone drunk and then make these miniature chairs. Coitus will soon follow.

It’s official – laptops can’t get any smaller. If they did, reading and typing on them would be an impossible task. I thought the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 was small, but the IMOVIO iKIT takes the cake. The cupcake, that is.

This thing is unnecessarily too small. It’s dimensions are 95 x 65 x 15.5 mm and it weighs almost half the weight of a Nintendo DS Lite and 20g less than an iPhone, so it’s pretty damn tiny. It also manages to pack a full QWERTY keyboard and a 2.8″ QVGA screen on this thing. For $170, you’re not getting much of a computer. It runs on a Marvell PXA270 312MHz CPU, uses a trimmed-down Linux OS and has 64MB of RAM, so don’t expect a powerhouse in the palm of your hand. For some reason this little thing even has Bluetooth 2.0, 802.11b/g WiFi and can amazingly sustain enough juice to keep it going for three hours. Seriously, do laptops need to be this small?

This computer sure is tiny. Fit-PC Slim is the ultimate mini-rig for anyone who isn’t satisfied with USB drives as a means of transporting data. It’s dimensions are 110 x 100 x 30mm and it packs a mean 500MHz AMD Geode LX800 processor, Ethernet jack, VGA output, WiFi, and a 2.5-inch hard drive option for taking data on the go.

Two sizes of memory are available: 256MB or 512MB. Obviously, depending on how much memory and/or hard drive space you want to put into this thing, the price could range from $220 to $335 and you’ll also need some tiny speakers to match. Be careful not to leave it around the house, though. I’d hate to hear that you crushed your three hundred dollar computer just because you weren’t watching where you step.

To be honest, I haven’t seen a computer smaller than the Space Cube. The computer, about the size of an Apple, is lacking beefy specs but comes equipped with plenty of ports and options to save grace. Inside, you’ll find a 300MHz processor, 64MB of DDR RAM and a 1GB CompactFlash Card. Yes. A fucking gig of storage and enough RAM to open Notepad. Fantastic.

Don’t pass it by just yet, though. The Cube comes with a plethora of ports and outputs. You’ll find SP Outs, Mic Ins, Ethernet ports, VGA support, USB port, speaker plug and more. Apparently, there’s also a “Space Wire” port, which is some proprietary NASA/ESA bullshit. It doesn’t matter, anyway. At nearly $2800, you’d have to be out of your mind to buy one of these.

Sometimes size doesn’t matter. But we all know that only men lacking in the trouser snake department say that. For example, don’t buy a Ferrari because you have a tiny penis. Sure, you’ll get a date out of it but, once you drop your pants, that girl will be singing to the whole town about what you aren’t packing.

Why not show her something worth talking about that isn’t connected to your body, like the Little Lamp. What makes it so little? The fact that its power source is also its stand, which happens to be a D-cell battery. It packs quite the punch for such a tiny lamp and one battery provides 150 hours of light from an LED bulb that’ll outlive the next 40 batteries you use on it. At $35, it won’t confuse your lady friends at the dinner table like the lamp candle and it’ll also give them a hint of what’s to come.

In the future everything is microscopic. We’ve got robots that can get inside your intestines to distribute medicine with their tiny robot hands, but what about solar race cars no bigger than a quarter? Now we’ve got those too. This 33 x 22mm car runs on light, artificial or otherwise. Just chase after it with a flashlight and watch it go. You can grab your own for about $23. Try not to lose sight of it.
