Be ready and safe with the Reach Safe from Vara Safety


NEWS – While no one can argue that there are way too many gun violence occurrences and tragedies across this country and around the world, there should also be an acknowledgment that there are millions of law-abiding gun owners who safely use firearms for reasons such as competition shooting, target shooting, and home safety. When maintaining a firearm at the ready for home security, it is very important that the readiness plan includes safety that does not allow anyone other than the desired individual/s to retrieve the gun. Not only is this common sense, but in many states within the United States, it is the law.

Vara Safety has designed a new device with this exact concept in mind. The Reach Safe is a mountable holster type of a firearm safe keeping device that uses a biometric fingerprint sensor to access the firearm in a “quick draw” manner. It is ergonomically correct so that retrieval is a part of the natural action of retrieving from a holster. Vara Safety manufactures inserts for the safe that will match the make and model of the firearm being used. In the event of a loss of power, there are also keys provided that will allow for manual access.

You can find more information on this product on the Vara Safety website and you can also pre-order the safe for $299. The first orders are scheduled to ship on August 31st, 2019.

ElevationShelf adds storage without clutter

NEWS – ElevationLab has an attention to detail that’s been present with all their products since the launch of their original phone dock in 2012. The latest product to come from their focus is an under-shelf to help declutter your workspace.

The ElevationShelf mounts under your desk where you may already have their “Anchor” managing your headphones. The shelf comes with pre-applied 3M tape and a cable management clip to make installation simple (screws also included if you’re looking to really lock it down).

Made of a reinforced polymer, it’s extra light and stiff to help carry the load, keeping your workspace clean and pristine. Available now at ElevationLab for $24.95 and you can find more of their products on Amazon.

Time for a gokart, Segway style!

NEWS – So let’s say that you have an extra Segway MiniPRO laying around that you aren’t using.  Yeah, no, I can’t really relate to this either, but work with me here and pretend.  You have an extra Segway MiniPRO laying around, and you wish there was something really fun you could do with it.  There is!  You can buy the Segway Ninebot Gokart Kit and convert your Segway into a gokart!  It’s a fully functional gokart with steering wheel, accelerator, brakes, and everything.  Top speed is 15 mph!  The MiniPRO supplies the back wheels and the battery, while the kit supplies everything else.  It’s a nifty transformation.  The Amazon page calls the resulting product a “drift racer,” but if you ever had a Big Wheel growing up with a hand brake, you know that you’re just getting a little spin out at the end rather than actually doing any drifting.  Still, it looks like a lot of fun, and the kit is only $800 on Amazon.

Discover your inner short order cook with the Blackstone 28″ outdoor griddle

NEWS – I love cooking outdoors, and I’ve used gas grills, charcoal grills, and even pizza ovens (check out my review for the Ooni Koda). But I saw something recently that I’ve never seen before for outdoor cooking, an outdoor griddle. The Blackstone 28” Griddle Cooking Station basically takes the griddle from the back of your favorite Greasy Spoon and moves it outdoors.

The Cooking Station features 34,000 BTU’s from two H-style burners, electronic ignition, and a cold-rolled 10 gauge steel griddle top. Perhaps the best thing about the griddle is the copious amount of cooking space it has. 448-inches to be exact. That’s enough to cook 18 hamburgers or 44 hot dogs.

The other thing that I like is that you can cook things on it that you can’t cook on a typical grill. Foods like bacon, eggs, and pancakes and dishes like stir-fries. Imagine cooking burgers on one side and grilling up toppings like onions and mushrooms on the other. Hungry yet?

It’s also easy to clean because of the new rear grease management system.

I’m not sure that an outdoor griddle can replace my gas grill, but the 28” Blackstone Griddle Cooking Station has me wanting to give it a try. The Blackstone 28” griddle is priced at $199.99, for more info or to purchase head over to Blackstone.
