I warn you beforehand. It is not a review of the cheap, soft bike cases which are open to much abuse by baggage handlers and do not guarantee the damage on transit. Instead, I will inform you about the best durable hard bike cases on which their quality was approved by many years.

The first and ultimate option is buying Thule 699 Round Trip Bicycle Travel Case.

This is a gem for serious bike owners. Super rugged polyethylene construction totally eliminates the shocks and even the largest direct hits. It is a large bike case. A standard road or mountain bike will easily fit inside. You even get plenty of free place for other accessories. It has sturdy strap system, wheels and additional lock for more security.

The only downside can be the payments at certain airlines for overweight baggage because Thule 699 bike case is 33lbs when empty. To prevent such situtations, many customers suggest carrying seat and pedals separately on another carryon bag.

Overall, if your bike is your everyhing and don’t care for possible overweight airlines tariffs, go buy it at Amazon. Amazon applies 20% savings on this most durable bike case ever. Read more details at Amazon product page.

Serfas Bike Transport Case is the alternative option. Actually, many bike owners choose either Thule or Serfas cargo bike cases. Serfas bike case is made from hard-plastic shell. It is like an armor in reality. The case has internal straps and a few foams to keep the bike pieces tightly. This hard bike case also has wheels and two side locks which differentiates from Thule 699 model.
Overall, similar features to the Thule. Note that this one is a bit more pricy though.

I think this could be an interesting valentine’s day present for geeks and gadget lovers. Or totally forget about valentine’s day. Turn your room a living organism according to your mood.

Philips Living Colors LED lamp is capable of producing 16 million color variants, surely according to your choice. It uses a simple color science approach. 256 colors x 256 saturation choices x 256 dimmer variants = 16 million colors. Besides, it is possible to arrange light density with the included remote control. The lamp consists of 4 separate LEDs (no heat emitting 2 reds, 1 blue and 1 green) to achieve the final effect. It think Philips Living Colors LED lamp works best when you use the color rotation function to change the mood automatically with pre-arranged intensity and saturation levels. I liked the idea of controling multiple LivingColor lamps with the same control.

Anyway, decide yourself. Currently selling at Amazon at very best rates.

I have seen many uniquely designed nutcrackers including Harold Imports Reed’s Rocket Nutcracker , Davey Crack It Nutcracker and even The Hillary Nutcracker. But, heavy metal nutcracker which you can get the idea looking the photo is totally talking to our ancient rock throwing instincts. Heavy metal nutcracker uses earth gravity to crack the nuts to the fullest in a funny way. Product Page

Imagine a motor which you can hold on your hands and it is at least 10 times as fast as a Boeing aircraft engine, 5 times faster than a Formula 1 race car motor. What I am talking about is another brilliant device invented by Sir James Dyson, famous English Industrial Engineer. Exactly 104,000 rotations in a minute is amazing !

We are talking about a handheld vacuum cleaner equipped with world’s fastest motor. DC31 will surely make dusts and debris a history. Beware your large objects as well while using. The device will be sold in UK next month in two versions. Not much costly, around $250 on average. Would you buy the new Dyson dustbuster or a new version of iRobot robotic vacuums?

These are latest unique gift ideas for gadget lovers which I came cross while browsing in Amazon.

#1 Lightwedge Book Light
Couldn’t afford to buy one of Amazon Kindles or waiting for the price drops of Kindle devices? Still, there are old but good gadgets for bookworms. Lightwedge enables you read a book at night while not disturbing your partner nearby. Even better, you can read a fantasy or horror book with full concentration closing all lights down.

#2 The Go Plate
We like to eat in bed with my wife, especially night seances to watch a cool dvd film. At least 2 cups or bottles of drink and 2 plates of food needed naturally. Bringing them from kitchen to bedroom and back can be exhausting. The Go Plate was designed to be able to hold both plate and bottle, can or cup in one hand. Reusable material, so it can go to dishwasher as well.

#3 Pick-a-tooth Toothpick holder
It is an ordinary silicone-made stuff with one exception that it looks attractive. A perfect gift idea for dentists and for their offices.

One of the most popular hi-tech devices of the recent years is surely HDTV. Everyone wants to have one of those super-quality image generators. Choosing the best HDTV has no easy way rather than reading and comparing different independent HDTV review articles on the internet and decide according to targeted quality expectations and budget limitations.

Personally, I will suggest www.youreviewelectronics.com HDTV review website to increase the knowledge about any HDTV brand and model before making the final decision. I appreciate honest, neutral reviews because buying an HDTV is a serious and expensive task than other simple electronics. They achieve to write really helpful detailed reviews.

You will find reviews for all brands from the very famous top level Samsung, Sony HDTV brands to low-priced but favorable quality manufacturers like Vizio for example.

Briefly what you will need first is to learn the technical differences between LCD HDTVs and Plasma HDTVs of various brands and models.

We can’t simply say that one is better than the other one because each technology has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, even though plasma tvs have better color accuracy and saturation and ability to fast render high motion images, LCD TVs have longer display life. We can extend such comparisons.

The most analytical approach for selection is to begin reading LCD TV reviews first. You have a wide range of option from 20 inches to 55 inches.

By the way, Plasma HDTVs become less pricey and more affordable each day since the costs of manufacture decrease and competition between brands become tough. I was wondering what the average price for a Panasonic 65″ plasma hdtv is. You can learn as well why this tv is futuristic and more by reading Plasma HDTV reviews there.

As I said before, choosing the best HDTV suitable for the target budget is possible only through reading such reviews in detail. Not easy but the result will be satisfactory.

There is a useful design competition run by Electrolux to encourage undergraduate and graduate industrial design students to create innovative, daring home appliance product ideas. In 2008 finals, there were over 600 projects from 49 countries. The winner is really a useful product design for roommates who share the same refrigerator in the room.

Austrian Applied Arts University student Stefan Buchberger’s “Flatshare” refrigerator allows each individual user to have his/her own refrigerator space which can be recognized by different colors or skins. The refrigerator consists of four of detachable modules so there will be no more fights to clean the refrigerator or blame others being so much dirty. He has won € 5000 and a six-month internship at one of Electrolux global design centers. Practical, simple but effective idea, nice real life solution and it deserves the prize for sure. Put an electronic lock as well on each module, it would be a top seller.

I had written about the only swimming guitar in the world in my previous post. This time, I will introduce you my latest action gadget discovery. Walking house ! This house was built in Denmark by a team of engineers to give an idea about an alternative eco-lifestyle. It is written in the official walking house website that there are solar panels and little windmills to collect energy from the natural environment. It can collect the rain water and there is a toilet system as well.

This 6 legged hydrological living form was inspired by the traditional nomadic culture of Romanis. There is a crazy idea as well we should note. You can establish a walking village with thousands of walking houses, in theory.
