LED Shower Light

June 10, 2008 at 10:17 am

Here’s a fun gadget to brighten up your mornings, the LED shower light.

led shower light

The LED Shower Light is a brilliant idea. It installs to a standard shower pipe in mere minutes. When you turn the shower on, the water powers a turbine and the LED Shower Light…well, lights up! Blue let’s you know the water is chilly. When the water warms up to 89° F (32° C), the light changes to red. Now you can step in and not freeze your giblets off. And you don’t even need to turn on the light now, because your whole shower glows.

The LED shower light is available to buy online for $39.99 from Think Geek.

Star Wars R2-D2 Peppermill

February 6, 2008 at 8:00 am

If your a Star Wars fan you will love the Star Wars R2-D2 Peppermill.

Star Wars R2-D2 Peppermill

Not that you’ve noticed… but all fine restaurants on Tatooine feature R2-D2 pepper grinders. Usually after you order your salad of Dagobah greens a Wookie will come around and offer you some fresh ground pepper from one of these handy droid-based mills. Word to the wise… never refuse a Wookie.

Fortunately for you we’ve managed to pilfer a few hundred R2-D2 pepper mills from eateries all over Tatooine for your spice grinding pleasure. Simply twist R2’s head and he deposits pepper onto your food. Hey, it’s not a glamorous job for a droid… but much better than being abducted by Jawas.

The Star Wars R2-D2 Peppermill is available to buy online for $19.99 from ThinkGeek.com
