The Air Doctor is a breath of fresh air


NEWS – Since most of my immediate family member face the challenges of allergies and the effects, I am always interested in products that can help to alleviate the horrible coughing, sneezing and runny nose and eyes which are some of the symptoms we experience. Over the past few years, I have been lucky enough to test a few air purifiers including some that are currently being used in my home every day.

During one of my notorious internet browsing sessions, I came across the Air Doctor. According to the manufacturer: “the AIR Doctor combines our UltraHEPA™ filter with our proprietary dual action Carbon/Gas Trap/VOC filter to remove or substantially reduce virtually all the particles, toxic ozone, volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) and gases from the air in your home.” Some of the features include professional WhisperJet fans which are 30% quieter than ordinary air purifiers, a built-in air quality monitor, their proprietary dual action Carbon/Gas Trap/VOC Filter, and a professional-grade air quality sensor to assess the air quality in the room and immediately adjust to the correct level of filtration. The AIR Doctor is a 100% sealed system to ensure all the air you breathe is pure and filtered.

If you would like to learn more about the Air Doctor or if you would like to purchase one, you can head over to the Air Doctor website. The Air Doctor can be purchased for $629.00, plus $29.95 S&P. When it is time to purchase additional filters, one year of the combo pack of filters can be purchased for $144.95, plus $9.95 S&P. You can also set up a recurring plan for a discount or purchase the filters separately.

Peeqo is a robot that uses memes to make you smile

NEWS – Peeqo is a personal robot designed to cheer you up by responding with memey GIFs and video clips.  Say its name, ask it a question, and it will respond with a cute little snippet of video.  Although it can respond to practical questions–“What is the weather like today?”–Peeqo’s at his best when providing “little moments of delight and entertainment to get you through your day.”

Peeqo is a hands-on little robot, literally.  It comes as a set of parts that you assemble yourself.  The brains of the robot is a Raspberry Pi 3.  It includes a 4-inch display screen, a pair of omni-directional microphone, and a 5 MP camera.  Peeqo has been programmed using Electron, and all his code is open sourced on GitHub, so if you’re interested in programming, you can contribute to the project and/or modify your own little robot.  Maybe you can teach Peeqo to remind you how smart or beautiful you are?

Peeqo is a Kickstarter project that has not yet raised its goal of $70,000.  If you’re interested, you just need to back the project before March 14, 2019. A pledge of $149 reserves a Peeqo which is estimated to ship in September.

Squeeze in a workout in just about any space with the Treadly ultra-thin treadmill

NEWS – If you live in a small home or apartment and thought it was impossible to own a treadmill, think again. Treadly is an ultra-thin compact treadmill that allows you to walk or jog in just about any space. It’s easy to pull out when you want to workout then slides away under a bed or couch when you’re done.

Treadly only weighs 64 pounds and measures a petite 55-inches long and 25-inches wide. More incredibly it’s almost impossibly thin (3.8-inches).

As you might imagine its compact design does present a couple of drawbacks. It has a weight limit of 220 lbs and can only be used on hard surfaces, no rugs or carpets.

Unlike traditional treadmills Treadly doesn’t use buttons, instead Infrared stepping technology tracks your foot position on the belt to start, stop, and adjust speed.

A foldable handrail provides safety and stability for faster paces. Treadly can reach a top speed of 5 mph when the handrail is in the up position and 3.8 mph when the handrail is down. So it’s perfect for light jogging or just getting your steps in.

And Treadly’s compact motor is quiet at a nearly inaudible 6 decibels.

Treadly even makes it easy to keep track of your time, steps and distance with an easy to read touch-free LCD display.

You can purchase Treadly for $999 in your choice of steel gray or rose pink from treadly.co.

Mouse where you want with the Cherry MW 8 Advanced optical mouse

NEWS – Mousing is sometimes a hit or miss proposition, depending on where you rest your mouse.  Some colors, or even worse, glass, with a complete lack of color or contrast, can confound many optical mice.  Cherry aims to end that problem with the Cherry MW 8 Advanced optical LED laser mouse.

Sporting a metal surface and mouse wheel and anodized aluminum shell with rubber sides, the mouse has a build quality that should last. Optical resolution can be set to 600, 1,000, 1,600 or 3,200 dpi, allowing for precise cursor movement, even on 4K monitors. Six buttons and a scroll wheel allow for versatility in mousing functions.

The mouse is powered via its internal lithium 550 mAh battery that should allow for several weeks of pointing and clicking between charges.  Charging is done with the included USB cord. The mouse can be used while charging.  The micro USB charge port is in the front of the mouse, essentially making the MW 8 Advanced mimic a corded mouse while charging.

The MW 8 Advanced can connect to your PC via the included 2.4 GHz USB receiver or Bluetooth 4.0.  It can switch between the two allowing for easy movement between two different PCs.

Cherry introduced the MW 8 Advanced in Europe late in 2018. It should be available very soon in the US for a suggested retail price of $50. Head over to Cherry’s site for more details.
