Third Hand Adjustable Parts Holder with Magnification

Third Hand Adjustable Parts Holder with Magnification It would probably be a bit disturbing if you really had a third hand, unless you were some kind of superhero and it gave you the ability to lift a car or be the world's most supreme gamer. Eating dinner would certainly be much easier and, oh yeah, so would fixing stuff. One hand on the wire, another for the solder and yet another for the iron. It might look strange but it'd be a lot better than asking a n00b to help you. The Third Hand Adjustable Parts Holder might not be quite as incredible as having an actual third hand, but it's still very useful and always ready to assist. Two adjustable arms with alligator clip jaws hold parts in place and the magnifying lens is perfect for getting a detailed view of your work area. Great for holding circuitboards when performing soldering or doing precision repairs or assembly.

Autoloader - Screwdriver Tool

Autoloader - Screwdriver Tool You know how it goes. You've just gotten some sort of new piece of furniture or electronics. Maybe you've broken something (again) and have been tasked with fixing it. You whip out your trusty toolbox in search of the right screwdriver. But screwdriver after screwdriver, bit after bit, nothing fits. Much like trying to squeeze a Gelatinous Cube down a 9 foot wide hallway, your too-big screwdriver won't fit right. Your too-small screwdriver will fit, but won't get the grip needed to turn. Also, you're pretty sure that your idiot roommate borrowed the right one and it's lost forever. The Autoloader is going to solve all of these problems, except maybe your undesirable roommate. These two screwdrivers will take care of all your personal and semi-professional screwing needs. Whether you're building a Hackintosh or mounting your shiny new flatscreen to the wall of your man cave (or girl cave - rawr!), the Autoloader has the bit for the job. Just pull it open, twist it to the bit you want, push it closed, and ta-da! The perfect screwdriver, every time.

Powermonkey Portable Charger

Powermonkey Portable Charger We have known for a long time that monkeys are our friends. After all they are our genetic brothers who might have become human with just slightly more effort. Problem is monkeys are not too useful... they mainly eat, make messes and hang from the chandelier. However, here at ThinkGeek we have discovered a new and more useful type of monkey... the Powermonkey! This little silver charger doesn't look much like a traditional simian but it is significantly more helpful. Charge it up from an AC power outlet and stash it in your pocket for later use (the Powermonkey can retain a standby charge for up to 1 year). When your favorite device runs out of power (cell phone, iPod, PSP, PDA...) , simply pop out the Powermonkey and jack it in. Your portable device can now run for hours with nary a power adapter in sight. Good Monkey!

Pogo Sketch iPhone/MacBook Stylus

Pogo Sketch iPhone/MacBook Stylus In case you haven't noticed the iPhone's glassy touch sensitive screen is only sensitive to your stubby little fingers. This is because it uses a technology called capacitive touch which measures the flow of electrons through your skin. Problem is, last time we checked our fingers were pretty rounded and not too precise at picking out tiny URLs in Safari. Luckily the geniuses behind the Pogo iPhone Stylus have magically solved this problem by making a stylus that somehow tricks the iPhone into thinking it's really a finger. What's more, the tip of the stylus is a soft felt like material that has the added benefit of keeping your screen clean while you tap away. How do they do it? Frankly we're not sure, but hopefully it doesn't involve grave-robbing. Now the Pogo Sketch refines the original Pogo Stylus design with a slightly slimmer tip and longer shaft with a pocket clip. It works great with the iPhone as well as the new MacBook Multi-Touch Trackpad. You get precise control on the iPhone screen and graphics tablet like fictionality on the MacBook Trackpad.

ScanGauge II Automotive Computer

ScanGauge II Automotive Computer New model is more compact with a larger display and backlight colors! As a general rule geeks like to have access to as much data and statistics as possible. We pretty much figure this applies to a geek's motor vehicle as well. So, to allow you to access extra information about your car we would like to introduce the ScanGauge II Automotive Computer. This gadget is easy to install and provides a set of digital gauges, a comprehensive trip computer, and an engine trouble code scan tool. The digital gauges mode displays four different properties on the screen (for example, fuel economy, battery voltage, coolant temperature, and engine speed). The trip computer tracks your vehicle's maximum speed, average speed, driving time, driving distance, trip fuel economy and several other pieces of trip data. The engine trouble code scan tool lets you read standard engine trouble codes as well as clear the "check engine" light and other warning lamps. The ScanGauge II is simple to use and install and mounts in, on or below the dash. It plugs into the diagnostic OBD-II connector found under the dash on 1996 and newer cars and light trucks. The functions are accessed via a simple on-screen menu interface. There is an automatic delayed power-down after engine shutoff and automatic power-up when engine is started. User and vehicle settings are automatically saved. Also has these features.

Withings WiFi Scale

Withings WiFi Scale Geeks everywhere are suffering from an imbalance. Maybe they eat too much junk, and are shaped more like Jabba than Solo. A few of us are perhaps a little smaller than we should be - and could stand to be a bit more Simon Phoenix-y... in the muscular way and not the insane murder-death-killery way. We all know how to get there. Diet and exercise. Sure, there's also experimental gene therapy, but even if you take that route, you still have to accurately monitor your progress. Yes, any scientific endeavor has to be properly metered and recorded so that adjustments can be made for optimum results. If the needle on the scale isn't moving in the desired direction fast enough, say, you can increase your workload, or decrease the cheetos. The problem is, your standard bathroom scale is horribly inaccurate, and it's difficult to translate the scribbled weights you've recorded on the back of your Netflix envelope into truly usable data. Enter the Withings WiFi scale! This gorgeous hunk of glass and aluminum weighs you in kilograms, pounds, or stone with an accuracy of 100 grams. Also, through biometric impedance analysis, the scale accurately measures your body fat. This is all well and good, but what makes this scale so gosh-darned special? WiFi! By giving your scale access to the interwebs, it posts your every weight measurement sample to your own private custom webpage that tracks your body mass and shows you your progress. View your results in tabular or graph form, even on your iPhone using the included iPhone app! It not only monitors your weight, BMI and body fat percentage - it measures up to 8 total family members on each scale, auto-recognizing each one as they step on the scale. If you or your family are part of an online fitness program, like Weightbot, Fitburn, or Google Health, it can auto-share your data with those services, expanding your ability to reach your fitness goals!
