What is it?

K Sport Headphones are wireless Bluetooth earbuds that have an in-ear fitness trainer that leads you through workout routines so you don’t have to go to the gym.

Why is it cool?

I like the K Sport Headphones because you can use them to listen to your favorite tunes without dealing with cables, but these sweatproof earbuds also help you get fit because they offer 100+ voice-guided workout plans for cycling, running, weight training and more. And the crazy part is that they are only $20 (early bird pricing)!

Kitchen SinkShroom & Ultra TubShroom No More Clogs

What is it?

The Kitchen SinkShroom & Ultra TubShroom are accessories for your kitchen and bathroom that keep food gunk and hair from clogging your drains.

Why is it cool?

I like the Kitchen SinkShroom & Ultra TubShroom because clogged drains are nasty and cleaning them out can be even worse. These tools will prevent that nasty job by keeping the gunk from clogging the drains in the first place or at least making it much easier to clean up. They are also made of stainless steel so they should last forever.

Where can I find more info?

Handle Plus | The All-in-one Solution for Every Tablet

What is it?

Handle Plus is a universal stand and handle for any tablet.

Why is it cool?

I like the Handle Plus because it’s a multi-use accessory that can be attached and detached on the back of your favorite tablet to provide a sturdy and secure grip. But in addition to working as a handle, it can also be used as a stand and a hanger. I love products that can multi-task.

ALLEYOOP ROCKER

What is it?

The ALLEYOOP ROCKER is a specially designed omnidirectional rocking board that helps alleviate the pressure and monotony of standing in one place while you’re working for hours at your standing desk.

Why is it cool?

Standing desks are supposed to be healthier for you than sitting like a slug at your desk all day long. But if you’ve ever tried a standing desk, you know that it can make your feet hurt and your back hurt from standing in one position for so long. That’s why I like the ALLEYOOP ROCKER. It gives your body a little extra something to do while you’re working. It engages your core use muscles and improves your balance.

Park & Diamond: Foldable Bike Helmet

What is it?

The Park & Diamond: Foldable Bike Helmet is a protective helmet for cyclists that doesn’t look like a protective plastic helmet

Why is it cool?

I like the Park & Diamond: Foldable Bike Helmet because it looks like a baseball cap instead of a dorky plastic helmet but still provides protection for your head and will pass all U.S. and E.U regulations to make sure you get the protection you need while riding a bicycle or scooter. It also folds so you can stick it in your bag for easy transport.

Add a whiteboard to your phone or laptop

NEWS – It’s not exactly a whiteboard, because you write on it with ballpoint pens, but Notepad adds a writing space to your phone or your laptop for quick notes. When you want to clear up the board for new notes, simply erase it using any eraser. It’s like keeping a paper pad at hand, but better, because there’s no waste with Notepad.

Notepad has an adhesive back, so it can adhere to a phone, laptop, or tablet. There are special cases designed to fit the iPhone X or the iPhone 8. If you don’t have one of these phones, choose from a smaller rectangle (2.5″ x 2.8″) or a larger rectangle (2.7″ x 3.5″) for use with your device, with or without a case.

Notepad is $10.00 for either case or either size rectangle. It will ship on October 7. Use the code WHOWRITESTHISSTUFF for 15% off your next order. Go to the ILOVEHANDLES website to order.

Print yourself a new face with the Contour 8000

NEWS – Forget taking 30 minutes or more putting on makeup before you start your day. With the Countour 8000 makeup printer – the first of it’s kind, you can have a full face of powdered makeup-like foundation and eye makeup in 30 seconds. You use the app to choose the look you want, insert the correct makeup cartridge in the printer, bend over the printer, and you’ll have perfectly applied, blended, and contoured makeup. You’ll only need to add mascara and lipstick, and of course the printer includes a mirror to use for those applications.

The Contour 8000 connects via WiFi to your mobile device and the Contour app. You’ll take a photo of your face for the app to map.

The printer uses the biometric information it measures for your face with electrostatic spray disposition to give you a perfect makeup application. The application is said to accurate within 1000th of a millimeter.

You’ll never need to worry about packing your own foundation and eyeshadows into the printer; you just need to use Contour makeup cartridges. Each make-up look is pre-packed into a cartridge which allows for up to 10 applications. You’ll receive some cartridges with the purchase of the Contour 8000, so you’ll have everything you need to get started.

The exact release date is yet to be determined. The Contour 8000 is set to be priced at £800 (about $1038 USD), with cartridges priced at £25 (about $33 USD) each. A starter kit will be available for those who choose to sign up to the mailing list, containing three cartridges of their choice for just £50 ($65 USD). Sign up now to be notified when the Contour 8000 is ready for the market and to qualify for the above rewards at the Contour 8000 website.

RHA truly connects with the new TrueConnect wireless in-ear headphones

NEWS – Does anyone at RHA ever sleep? Every time I wrap up a review or news item, they come out with something new and cool. This time, it’s their first totally wireless earphone, the TrueConnect true wireless in-ear headphone. It comes with an IPX5 rating, so they should be sweat-proof for those warm, outdoor activities.

The TrueConnect earphone has a stem similar to the Apple AirPod, but shorter. RHA (Reid Heath Acoustics) states that the stem has an in-built antenna which uses a powerful Bluetooth 5 connection. The stem crucially places the microphone closer to the user’s mouth, producing clearer and more detailed call quality. The earpieces are a low-profile design that features easy-to-use button controls that provide freedom from devices.

The earpieces have a five-hour battery life, with another four charges of five hours (25 hours total) in the case. A straightforward light display makes battery level instantly apparent. The effortless case design can be opened with one hand. Charging is complete in one hour and forty minutes and fast charging delivers 50% battery life in fifteen minutes.

“We believe we have come up with the most sophisticated true wireless earphones on the market; delivering great battery life, an intuitive user interface, and an elegant, single-handed opening mechanism. The metal finish was something we wanted, to ensure it was immediately recognizable as an RHA product,” says Kyle Hutchison, head of product design at RHA.

This is becoming a cliché, but once again, RHA has come out with an affordable product that many people are going to want.

The TrueConnect true wireless in-ear headphone will be available on October 18 for $169.95. Visit RHA for more information.
