00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:07.560
it's handy Tech under 100 time again but

00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:16.309
this time something new a product that can simplify your DIY projects and clamp

00:00:11.719 --> 00:00:21.260
your nipples at the same time don't miss

00:00:24.119 --> 00:00:29.560
it be quiet! silent Wings 3 fans use a

00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:34.480
smooth running six pole motor to remain silent and cool your PC better check

00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:39.480
them out at the link in the video description number one here is the

00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:43.680
spiritual successor to a product that I bought a while back for a handy Tech

00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:50.760
episode then never ended up featuring because it just didn't work that well

00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:53.160
this thing sucks every time I've used it

00:00:50.760 --> 00:00:57.199
I've been blown away by how long it takes to adjust the position of the arms

00:00:55.320 --> 00:01:03.160
and the poor quality of the included magnifying glass so I recently replaced

00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:06.000
it with a quad hands helping hands that

00:01:03.160 --> 00:01:10.960
absolutely blows it out of the water it includes four locking alligator clamp

00:01:08.479 --> 00:01:18.240
terminated flexible goose neck arms attached to a heavy powdercoated steel

00:01:14.600 --> 00:01:20.560
base two of the arms are about 6 in Long

00:01:18.240 --> 00:01:26.000
these ones will be ideal for smaller projects where stability is key because

00:01:23.119 --> 00:01:30.240
a shorter ARM is inherently more stable then the other two are about 15 in Long

00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:35.200
making them ideal for holding holding larger items reaching around to provide

00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:40.560
additional stability to the small arms or even taking care of your uh other

00:01:38.360 --> 00:01:45.280
needs when you're busy and need to multitask as far as suggested

00:01:42.520 --> 00:01:50.000
improvements go I love this thing so far but some plastic or rubber guards for

00:01:47.479 --> 00:01:54.280
the clamp teeth might be nice so I don't have to cover them to avoid risking

00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:58.479
scratching something like a PCB and a couple extra threaded holes tapped into

00:01:56.320 --> 00:02:03.360
the base would let me expand it with more arms both both of which are lowcost

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:08.479
upgrades that could be very valuable to potential customers which leads us then

00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:14.680
to item number two another spiritual successor this time to the Sennheiser

00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:16.720
hh10 an awesome desk clamping headphone

00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:22.920
holder that was discontinued almost immediately after I recommended it in

00:02:18.920 --> 00:02:25.959
handy Tech episode 1 almost 3 years ago

00:02:22.920 --> 00:02:29.120
this is the brain waves hangya and

00:02:25.959 --> 00:02:31.640
actually the brain waves truss as well

00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:36.000
both of them are under 20 bucks for a well- constructed metal headphone hanger

00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:40.680
that will help you keep your headphones off of your Tower your monitor your desk

00:02:38.480 --> 00:02:46.080
your floor or wherever else it is that you've got them right now the difference

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:50.440
between the two is that the hanga clamps to the edge of your desk just like the

00:02:48.040 --> 00:02:56.239
hh10 did and holds one pair of headphones while the truss actually

00:02:53.480 --> 00:03:00.599
takes the space savings a step further and sticks to the bottom of your desk

00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:05.560
with an extra ARM that you can use to store your gaming headset and your audio

00:03:02.920 --> 00:03:10.879
file headphones for example not bad given that it only costs a few bucks

00:03:07.519 --> 00:03:13.120
more I'd like to see a wider more curved

00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:16.680
top surface on both of them to help avoid denting the headband foam on the

00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:21.840
nice cans you spent your hard-earned money on and I think the truss should

00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:26.640
have a couple of holes in the base to allow you to screw it into the bottom of

00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:30.519
your desk if you want the included adhesive appears to be the same

00:03:28.519 --> 00:03:36.640
excellent stuff included by GoPro on their mounts but it's onetime use and

00:03:34.040 --> 00:03:39.480
quality double-sided tape is not exactly available at the corner store so you

00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:45.200
might have to wait if you had to order it online or something leading us then

00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:50.200
to the next product I am a huge fan of

00:03:45.200 --> 00:03:52.480
the steel series qck XXL a 900 MMX 400

00:03:50.200 --> 00:03:57.079
MM mouse pad that's big enough for your mouse and your keyboard and like a

00:03:55.439 --> 00:04:04.519
secondary Mouse on the other side for your laptop but at 40 bucks it's pretty

00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:08.120
expensive enter reflex lab with their

00:04:04.519 --> 00:04:10.040
huge gaming mouse pad for half the price

00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:16.120
it's a little smaller it's the same width but about 100 mm shorter but I

00:04:12.640 --> 00:04:19.120
rarely use the very top of my XXL anyway

00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:22.000
and the huge gaming mouse pad has no

00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:28.320
tracking issues has a pretty pleasing soft texture to the top has the same uh

00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:34.320
grippy bottom so it doesn't slide around and rocks stitched edges to prevent

00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:36.080
fraying to boot if I'd seen this one

00:04:34.320 --> 00:04:40.479
before I started working on this video I'd have probably ordered the red lemon

00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:45.080
version of what appears to be a very similar product for only 14 bucks with

00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:48.880
free Prime shipping so you can check out that one too but I haven't personally

00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:52.360
tried that one and I don't feel comfortable endorsing stuff on handy

00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:57.759
Tech unless I've actually had my hands on it and I have with the reflex lab

00:04:54.880 --> 00:05:03.919
version leading us then to our last item for the day these

00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:09.080
adorable little thermal adhesive backed heat sinks have you ever wondered how

00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:14.160
you can add just a little bit of extra cooling to a mod uh maybe on a vrm

00:05:12.280 --> 00:05:18.319
module on your motherboard or graphics card or to some weird controller chip

00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:24.160
that just seems to run too hot on an Electronics project well at six bucks

00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:28.560
for 20 of these they're a great deal and sure to add not only some cooling but

00:05:26.520 --> 00:05:32.840
also a little flare to your next raspberry pie baby

00:05:30.520 --> 00:05:36.199
project which brings us finally to the full disclosure part of these handy Tech

00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:41.759
episodes since they're structured more as a recommendation to buy with links

00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:44.840
below to Amazon compared to a review

00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:47.639
item one I purchased by me for me

00:05:44.840 --> 00:05:53.680
personally and at work item number two I purchased by me for my use at work since

00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:57.120
I'm still using my hh10 at home and for Tan since he's been looking for

00:05:54.919 --> 00:06:01.840
something to get his headphones off and away from his desk item three was was

00:05:59.759 --> 00:06:04.800
purchased by me just to see if it was good before recommending it because it

00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:08.880
was cheap and I was like oh that's cool and item four was purchased by me

00:06:07.039 --> 00:06:12.680
because I saw it and I could think of a thousand times that I could have used a

00:06:10.400 --> 00:06:18.199
little heat sink like that in the past even having gone as far as to cut up

00:06:15.280 --> 00:06:23.319
