The Cooler Master glacer 240l CPU Cooler delivers the convenience of an

all-in-one and the performance of a custom water cooler click now to learn

3
00:00:14,639 --> 00:00:21,199
more well I guess if we do two videos about this it's sort of a series so

4
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:26,880
here's our cool technology and gadgets and gizmos under $100 episode 2 we're

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:30,840
going to start with this guy right here this is the most basic concept ever a

6
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:35,399
charging cable that you'll always have on you they've got the charge key in the

7
00:00:33,239 --> 00:00:40,559
shape of a key to go on your key chain and the charge card which unintuitively

8
00:00:37,719 --> 00:00:44,239
isn't a credit card but rather a cable in the shape of a card to go in your

9
00:00:41,879 --> 00:00:47,760
wallet they sent us the micro USB version of the charge key but either

10
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:52,559
version is also available with a lightning connector for Apple users

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:56,960
their website hellonomad domcom lets you order the product and has an FAQ with

12
00:00:54,600 --> 00:01:02,199
information ranging from very useful to completely laughable mixed in with what

13
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:05,760
speed do your cables charge at are great bits like their 30-day no questions

14
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:10,400
asked return policy and lifetime warranty against breakage that covers an

15
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:16,360
unlimited number of bins due to the use of high-grade plastics which leads us

16
00:01:12,799 --> 00:01:18,520
finally to the price it is a flat $25

17
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:23,240
for the charge key or the charge card for Android users it's a bit of a tough

18
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:30,000
sell I think at monoprice.com I can get over 40 Standard 1 and 1/2t USB micro

19
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:35,280
cables for 25 bucks and put five of them in my car five of them on my boat etc

20
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:40,360
etc but for some folks the convenience of being able to wear it will be a

21
00:01:37,479 --> 00:01:45,000
selling Factor the lightning cable is much more palatable to me because Apple

22
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:49,600
users are already going to have to spend about $12 on a lightning cable at

23
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:53,600
somewhere like mono price so for only about double the cost of a normal cable

24
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:58,560
you're getting the convenient one next up we have the pluggable USB to GB

25
00:01:56,479 --> 00:02:03,360
Ethernet adapter a USB to Ethernet adapter is something most people haven't

26
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:07,079
really needed in the past but with how much I hate Wireless and the rapid

27
00:02:05,399 --> 00:02:12,160
disappearance of Hardline networking from even devices like notebooks it's

28
00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:16,280
becoming really hard for me to get by without one I actually originally bought

29
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:20,080
a sabrin USB to gigabit one that worked really well and is now providing the

30
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:24,720
dual land connectivity I needed to turn my Aspire 1 Netbook into a PF sense

31
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:28,640
router but since it was permanently tied up I needed to go back and find a new

32
00:02:26,599 --> 00:02:32,239
one to use on my Ultrabook and NVIDIA Shield when I want a more reli

33
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:36,319
connection and the pluggable brand one appears to be the exact same thing it

34
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:40,680
works perfectly on my PC and installed driverless on my NVIDIA shield and it's

35
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:45,000
$5 cheaper than the other one on Amazon so it's 25 bucks works on Windows Mac

36
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:50,440
Chromebook Linux and some Android devices as well obviously because it's

37
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:55,800
USB 2 you're not getting full gigabit speeds but it's faster than 10100 and

38
00:02:53,640 --> 00:03:00,159
has better compatibility than a USB 3 solution so that's a tradeoff that I was

39
00:02:58,239 --> 00:03:05,560
willing to make for this one our next item is the titanium smart fast md600 L

40
00:03:03,799 --> 00:03:10,599
16 Bay nickel metal hydride battery charger and this is something I wish I

41
00:03:07,799 --> 00:03:13,920
had had years ago compared to the basic Chargers that you can get bundled with

42
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:19,480
your anol Loop batteries my favorite rechargeables by the way they offer

43
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:24,239
little graphical indicators of charge progress more smart charging features to

44
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:29,360
make the batteries last longer the obviously higher battery capacity and

45
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:33,040
finally a couple of little USB charging ports so you can go ahead and you know

46
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:38,040
Chuck a phone or a portable battery Bank on it to charge at the same time as all

47
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:42,400
your other batteries each battery is on its own channel so you don't have to

48
00:03:39,879 --> 00:03:47,080
populate two adjacent bays at once with identical batteries and the charger can

49
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:51,680
monitor the charge state of each Bay individually it charges either doublea's

50
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:58,400
or AAA batteries and comes with a wall wart as well as a where is it this one

51
00:03:55,720 --> 00:04:01,560
ha or a 12volt car adapter so you can take it with you pretty much where ever

52
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,680
we actually took it with us to CES although we weren't driving around there

53
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:08,640
but the point that you can travel with it Still Remains the charger is only 50

54
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:14,159
bucks and you can get started with the Charger and 16 Anal Loops to fill it up

55
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:19,440
with for about $100 total so stop wasting money on disposables and switch

56
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:22,280
to anal Loops they're absolutely awesome

57
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:27,000
which leads us to our last and most expensive product today I'm holding it

58
00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:31,880
upside down this is the air do it's actually not quite shipping yet but the

59
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:35,919
indigo Yogo campaign is ending soon and they've got at least a few samples that

60
00:04:34,039 --> 00:04:40,520
they are finished enough with to send out to reviewers so I spent some time

61
00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:45,120
with it my sample came with a short windshield mount and a long flexible

62
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:50,360
windshield mount that has to be the sturdiest flex ARM I've ever seen I mean

63
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:55,199
it is tough to bend and then once you've got it in position it absolutely stays

64
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:58,919
then the build quality continues to impress me with a solid feeling ball

65
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:03,840
joint at the top that locks into the head where the phone our tablet can rest

66
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:08,759
and then I'd say you know the reasonable suction cup so it seemed cool already

67
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:12,440
and then stuck to it and then I saw it includes Chi wireless charging with a

68
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:16,160
micro USB plug on the side and an included micro USB cable that you can

69
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:22,600
run down to your cigarette lighter or whatever else and now it's got my attention because when you consider that

70
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:25,880
a decent car mount is 15 to 25 bucks and

71
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,319
a CH charging pad is $ 20 to $30 this is

72
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:33,720
looking pretty competitive at that Indiegogo price of $63 now now throw in

73
00:05:30,479 --> 00:05:35,400
the kicker the head uses magnets for

74
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:42,080
phones with Magnetic mounting plates inside them combined with what air do is

75
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:44,199
calling okay magic foam which caused my

76
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:48,600
eyes to almost roll out of their sockets to achieve a very strong bond between

77
00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:53,680
your device and the dock without really putting any effort into it but of course

78
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:57,160
I needed to see it to believe it it only really works on smooth surfaces so

79
00:05:55,360 --> 00:06:01,600
you'll want either a smooth backed phone like the LG G2 that I have here or a

80
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:05,720
smooth case for existing one but man when it works it's really amazing I mean

81
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:10,840
listen to the sound of the bond here in their demo video they even show

82
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:17,960
it working with tablets my HTC1 kind of works without my Pink matte

83
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,919
case when it's backing and the air do

84
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:25,120
are perfectly clean so you can kind of see it's you can get a little bit of a

85
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:29,120
bond there and the good news is that you can clean it with water and restore its

86
00:06:27,639 --> 00:06:32,880
stickiness as long as you're careful not to damage Electronics inside but that's

87
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:38,199
not something that I would trust with my phone day today so stick to the phones

88
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:40,160
that airdoc or your friends have

89
00:06:38,199 --> 00:06:43,319
validated you can check out the phone compatibility list on the Indiegogo

90
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:48,120
campaign linked below with the where to buy links to all of this cool stuff also

91
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:51,440
there and they're also offering deals in their Indiegogo campaign on Chi charging

92
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:56,199
cases for some devices that don't already support it and I think you've got about two weeks left to get one at

93
00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:59,680
the pre-order price once the pre-order price goes away I've yet to see how much

94
00:06:57,879 --> 00:07:03,319
they're going to be charging for it when it's back up to full pop so you might

95
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:08,199
want to check that out while the campaign is still running so full

96
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:12,759
disclosure Guys these $100 oress Gadget guides are much more like

97
00:07:10,759 --> 00:07:17,120
recommendations to buy than our other videos so in the interest of making sure

98
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:19,960
that you guys know what you're watching and what you're looking at I want to

99
00:07:18,319 --> 00:07:24,000
make sure you understand where these gadgets all came from the anal loops and

100
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:29,319
the charger that you saw were bought by me for business use here at Linus Media

101
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,520
Group the USB to Ethernet adapters I

102
00:07:29,319 --> 00:07:37,400
actually bought two of them there's another one around here somewhere uh were bought by me for personal use the

103
00:07:34,759 --> 00:07:40,759
Prototype air do was sent to me for free by the founder of airdoc when I

104
00:07:38,919 --> 00:07:44,879
expressed interest in the campaign and asked for a sample it's something I was

105
00:07:42,639 --> 00:07:48,400
about 5050 about funding even if I didn't get a sample of it and now that I

106
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:53,479
have my hands on it it has met my expectations so I quite like it and then

107
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:58,120
finally the charge key was sent to my editor edzel who thought it was cool and

108
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:02,800
I agreed so we didn't pay for that one and particularly for the micro USB

109
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:06,280
version I don't think either of us would but we both saw the utility of it and

110
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,639
figured some people might be interested so we figured we'd throw it into the

111
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:14,400
video and show it to you guys speaking of interested if this video was interesting to you and you want to make
