Huey the Color Copying Chameleon Lamp

Huey the Color Copying Chameleon Lamp

Huey the Color Copying Chameleon Lamp

Huey is an electronic glowing chameleon lamp that dynamically matches the color of whatever he sits on. Have a favorite green notebook? Plop Huey down on top and he matches the color with his glowing skin. Just painted your room Cerulean Blue? Hold Huey against the wall, then squeeze him gently and he'll hold the color, even if you put him down on your brown nightstand. Huey even has a color cycle mode if you're indecisive. Watch him pop from color to color and give him a little reassuring squeeze when he gets to the one you like. Huey the Color Copying Chameleon Lamp makes an adorable addition to your wee geeks room, but he's a great friend to anyone who loves color. How does Huey do it? Well, he lights the surface underneath him with two hidden white LEDs then uses a sophisticated optical sensor to determine the correct color. He then matches this color by adjusting the shade of numerous multi-color LED's imbedded in his body. Huey is truly a toy of the future. Five years ago the color sensing technology he uses was too expensive for consumer products and was featured mainly in scientific measuring devices. Now you can leverage this cool tech for your own frivolous pleasure and ThinkGeek is proud to assist you in your noble quest. Product Features WARNING: This product is not suitable for ages 6 and under. WARNING: Keep away from children under 3 due to power adapter. Electronic glowing chameleon lamp dynamically matches the color of whatever surface he sits on Color cycle mode moves through various colors automatically Squeeze Huey and he'll pause on the current color Soft vinyl construction Comes with color experimentation sheet Makes a great desk accessory or nightlight Powered by included AC adapter (with long cord!) or 3 AAA batteries

Bare Paint Conductive Paint

Bare Paint Conductive Paint

Ok, no long stories or goofy anythings. Makers out there - you need to get some of this Bare Paint Conductive Paint right now. It's that important. Why? Because it will revolutionize how you design circuits. Well, not how you design them, but what you put them on. Huh? We'll explain. Read on. Bare Paint Conductive Paint is just what the name implies: conductive paint. You can paint it onto walls, floors, any surface (except skin) and it will conduct electricity. From there, your imagination is the limit for what you can make. And get this: you can (once it's dry) paint over Bare Paint Conductive Paint to help it blend in to the surface it's on. AND, you can then add a new layer of Bare Paint Conductive Paint and the two layers won't interact (giving you the power of overlapping circuits). Get some now and start creating. Just don't forget to send us pictures, 'cause we want to be proud of all you make with your Bare Paint Conductive Paint. Bare Paint Conductive Paint Electrically conductive paint for painting circuits onto things. Yeah, you read that right: the paint becomes part of the circuit. Water based, nontoxic, and dries at room temperature. Perfect for painting onto any surface (except skin). Repeat: Not for use on skin. Washes off with water - for easy clean up and correction. Includes an instruction/tip booklet on the top of the jar. Net Wt.: 50ml

Star Trek Starfleet Academy Titanium Spork

Star Trek Starfleet Academy Titanium Spork

Star Trek Starfleet Academy Titanium Spork

You've made the big decision. You could work in the shipyards, you could be a lounge singer - but no, you've chosen to enlist in Starfleet Academy. Here's what you have to look forward to: tons of studying, lots of friends, maybe a case of space acne, and oh so much more. You also can expect one of the most mind blowing orientation sessions ever. You'll get your dorm and roommate assignments, your class schedule, your academic advisor, and your titanium spork. We kid you not. We've always told folks that the titanium spork was the utensil of the future, and now (after we yanked a bunch through a chrono-synclastic infundibulum) we have the proof to um, well, prove it. The Star Trek Starfleet Academy Titanium Sporks are the official sporks of Starfleet Academy, and they have the laser engravings to prove it! Seriously, folks, the Star Trek Starfleet Academy Titanium Spork is just about the coolest Star Trek collectible ever, because it is fully functional. Just like the one Kirk used while a student (perhaps even while planning to cheat at the Kobayashi Maru scenario), these are laser engraved with the Starfleet emblem and other stuff which we'll tell you about soon. And remember, we know how important it is for you to hold a replica of Spock's Student Spork at the premier of the new movie! Live long, and prosper. Please Note: These are not the limited edition sporks, but a brand new design for the whole Federation and beyond to enjoy (i.e. non-limited edition).
