The Mevo Plus by Livestream may just be your all-in-one streaming solution

There are many options in today’s technology-driven world that fill the need for someone to stream live events, whether they are personal or professional events. As I continue to look at what is available, I am finding very capable devices with great specifications and versatility, for relatively reasonable prices.

One such device is the Mevo Plus which is designed to work via an iOS or Android app to live stream using your mobile device. You can stream to Livestream, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter or Periscope. Since it is designed for personal and professional use, it provides for a multi-camera production via the use of a multi-camera style app. You can stream in full 1080P HD resolution and you can record locally in 4K onto an SD Card. The Mevo Plus even has electronic image stabilization and a wireless connection that will remain connected up to 100 feet away from your mobile device. It is just 2.5-inches in height, and its features include an ultra-wide 150-degree lens, a 12Megapixel image sensor, 2×2 MIMO antennas, 802.11ac wifi, 16:9 aspect ratio and a rechargeable battery pack. There is also an optional Mevo Boost accessory that provides additional power with its 12,000mAH batter and Ethernet, USB Type-A, and USB Micro-B connections, and a tripod or light stand mounting option.

The Mevo app allows you to create the effect of up to 9 different camera views or viewing perspectives.
You can purchase the Mevo Plus at Amazon or B&H Photo Video for $499. The Mevo Boost is extra.

Bristl brings light therapy to the electric toothbrush

No matter how well you brush your teeth, brushing alone doesn’t kill all the bacteria in your mouth nor does it completely prevent yellowing of your teeth, especially as you age.  Germs in your mouth can lead to bad breath, gum disease, and cavities.  Yellowing teeth can sap your self-confidence.  There are treatments for both these issues, but wouldn’t it be easier if you could address both issues just by brushing?  The makers of Bristl, a light-therapy electric toothbrush, say that you can.

Bristl is a sonic toothbrush (12,000 rpm in gentle mode, 24,000 rpm in strong mode) with a 2 minute timer to encourage you to brush long enough to be effective.  For extra effectiveness, Bristl adds patent-pending dual light therapy technology that is “clinically proven to kill bacteria, heal gums, and whiten teeth.”

The light therapy component uses red light, blue light, and purple light (red and blue together).  The red light is said to promote collagen secretion to strengthen gums and prevent and treat gingivitis.  Blue light kills germs that cause gum disease and helps whiten teeth.  Purple light combines all these promised benefits.

The planned MSRP is $99.00, but while the Kickstarter campaign is still active, you can receive a Bristl toothbrush, charger, and 2 brush heads for a pledge of $79.00.  Other pledge packages are available.  The funding goal was met within four hours.  The funding period ends Sunday , April 29, 2018, at 1:00 AM EDT.  Delivery is expected in June 2018.  Pledge for your own Bristl toothbrush at Kickstarter.

No wall is out of reach with these paint applicators

I don’t have any radiators in my house, but I do have two toilets and a 600lb refrigerator that can’t be moved when I want to paint the walls.  Right now, the wall beside my fridge has paint only on the visible portion of the wall.  I can see the old wall color if I stand at a certain angle.  I need one of these Tight Space Paint Brushes to extend the paint further behind the fridge.

The Tight Space Paint Brush system has a 16.63″ x 4.5″ handle that slim, flat paint pads slide on to extend your reach by 12″ and give you better access and coverage in tight spots.  The packaging serves as a handy paint tray for loading up the pads with paint.

The paint pads can be hand-washed for reuse, using water for latex paint or mineral spirits for oil-based paint.  The Tight Space Paint Brush from Paint Behind is available for $14.95.  A refill kit with two more paint pads and a paint tray is available for $11.95.  Both are available from The Grommet.

The WOWOTO DLP LED Video Projector will steal the show!


As the summer approaches, I can’t help but think of all of the outdoor events I will have the opportunity to attend, including the outdoor barbecues where I get together with friends and family and in many cases, look at movies late into the night. Usually, we have to drag a TV outdoors, and then make sure that we place it somewhere that we can pick it up quickly should a quick summer shower surprise us.

This year we have been discussing a better option of a projector screen that can roll up and out of the way very quickly, and a projector that we can just pick up and run with. The advantage of the outdoor screen is that we can all spread out, and we can see the movies or sporting events from almost any angle. The discussion was going quite well until we got to the subject of the projector. For many years, a good HD projector would cost well over $1000, and no one seemed to want to spend the money despite the many years of enjoyment it could bring.

Tasked with the job of finding a reasonable projector with the specifications and connections that we need, I began my research and stumbled across the WOWOTO DLP LED Video Projector. This little gem boasts a starting model with 2000 lumens, 1080P and 3D support, built-in dual band wifi, Bluetooth 4.0, a quad core processor, 1280 x 800 native resolution, an image projection size of 15” to 300”, both 16:9 and 4:3 screen formats, support for multiple picture and video formats, and it is equipped with Android 4.4 OS and a Quad-core processor. It has AV, HDMI, RJ45, SD Card, SPDIF, MHL and USB inputs, and weighs in at just over one pound.

If you are as interested in the WOWOTO DLP LED Video Projector as I am, you can head over to Amazon, and purchase one for $399.

Reduce non-recyclable waste while still enjoying your Keurig K-Cup beverages

Keurig single-serving coffee machines are very popular.  It’s convenient to load a coffee pod into the machine and have a fresh cup of coffee within a few seconds.  You never have to worry about drinking a cup that’s been reheating in the pot made hours ago, and you’ll never get stuck making a fresh pot of coffee because you got the last cup.  There are dozens of brands and flavors of coffee in Keurig K-Cups, so you’re almost guaranteed to find the exact coffee you want.  The big problem with the Keurig system is all the waste produced with those non-recyclable plastic cups.  Thanks to Recycle a Cup, you won’t have to worry about loading up the landfill with K-Cups anymore.

Recycle a Cup is a cutter that removes the top of the K-Cup.  Place the cutter over the top of the K-Cup, depress the green buttons, and twist the cutter a full turn.  The plastic bottom is freed and can be tossed into recycling.  You can also remove the aluminum top for recycling and toss the paper filter and the coffee grounds into recycling.

You can remove your contribution to the 20 billion K-Cups that flood the landfill each year by purchasing a pair of Recycle a Cup cutters for $9.99 at the Recycle a Cup website.
