To shave or not to shave, that is the question I ask myself almost every day. As much as I like the clean shaven look, there are times that I like to have stubble. There are a few reasons why I like to have stubble. The first reason is that the scruffy looks sophisticated in my opinion. The second reason is that I sometimes want to switch it up and attract older women and the clean shaven baby face gets in the way. And when I do grow the perfect length of hair on my face, it’s only for one day because the next day it’s too long for my liking. I’m very picky about the amount of stubble I have and you can see how this can become annoying for me. I’m positive that I can’t be the only guy in this situation. But thankfully, I no longer have to worry thanks to the i-Stubble by Conair.

I’ve already used the i-Stubble beard trimmer several times now and I like the results that I get after using it. The beard trimmer is well designed, light weight, and easy to handle. The trimmer features three buttons and is very easy to figure out. The two upper buttons control the length settings while the lower button is the power button. The beard trimmer features 15 ultra-precise length settings ranging from 5mm in length all the way down to 0.4mm (2 day stubble) in length.  I plan on staying in the 0.4mm to 1.0mm range depending on my mood. The ‘i-Stubble’ also has an easy to read digital display which shows the current setting for the length and battery life. And speaking of battery life, the i-Stubble features a rechargeable battery and can hold a charge for 45 minutes.

Japan, land of the Anime & Manga, the bullet train, ninjas, efficient cars, technology, rice, sushi, and crazy sex dolls has a new cute little invention for us. Well, sort of, as it’s only available in Japan for the time being.

The cute little gadget is called the Twimal by toy maker Takara Tomy and will be available for sale on March 31^st. I know all the Twitter addicts in North America will be dying to get their hands on this one. The Twimal (short for Twitter Animal) is a ‘pet animal’ that will read your tweets for you. It is connected to your computer via a USB cable and is able to read the tweets, replies, tweets from other users, and up to three hash tags. There are two different Twimals to choose from each with a different voice.  This Twitter Animal currently only works with Windows OS. Check out the promotional video below (in Japanese).

We recently showed you guys the Amatoya ATV with firefighting capabilities. As cool as that ATV is, unfortunately, that ATV is still in the concept phases. But I think I have just found the next best thing and the timing is perfect as summer is only months away.

This RC Car is like no other and features a hidden water gun and functional flashing Xenon lights. The two-speed turbo RC car is capable of going up to speeds of 11 mph (when turbo is used) and features advanced battery technology that allows it to run for 40 minutes on a single charge.

I recently found out about this very handy little gadget called the Water Leak Alarm. This thing reminds me of a little water filter and is able to detect even the tiniest of water drops when it gets close to the alarm.

This thing is very easy to use as there is no programming involved or buttons to push. Simply place the alarm in any area that can be potentially flooded such as under sinks, in the basement near main pipes, toilets, water heater, and close to a washing machine.  Even if a small amount of water touches the detector, a loud alarm (100dB) will sound for up to 24 hours. The batteries are built-in and non-replaceable. But the good news is that the battery will
