For example.. Tp's arm is  93 Degrees F..

I have these on every lamp in the house, only need one remote per room.



Amazon -- Ivation Programmable Wireless Remote Control

Use this every single day for my daily 16oz of coffee.
Amazon -- Zojirushi SM-KHE48BA Stainless Steel Mug


I've purchased 14 of these since my original as gifts for friends/family.
My original is two years old, recently had to replace the lid because the latch broke falling off my desk. They sell all the parts separately.

If anything, those mugs work too well.  I accidentally left mine at home once when I left for work, when I came back 9 hours later the coffee was still piping hot  )

They are awesome, keeps me from drinking a bunch of coffee because it takes me until the afternoon to finish it.

I bought one of the water bottles and they are awesome, bought three more as gifts.

I'll put a bunch of ice and water in it at 5am and at 5pm I'll be shaking ice out of it, that's after refilling it at least once with cold water during the day.

I was looking for a new water bottle.

The one I linked is pretty solid, doesn't leak, keeps stuff super cold. The only con is that its not as rugged as a Nalgene type. The outer sleeve thing has a padded bottom so if you drop it that will protect the aluminum body. But a serious drop or drop without the sleeve would probably dent it and may ruin the vacuum seal between the wall layers.

Oh and the stupid strap does comes off.

Thanks guys, I had given up selecting a 18/8 insulated mug, guess it's just the matter of locating these in Europe now.

Digital calipers. To measure stuff. Either hand-built stuff (such as hand-filed switch mounting plates), or for designs in CAD.

It doesn't have to be zojirushi.. 

Most of their thermuses arn't made in Japan either.

So pretty much ANY vacuum stainless will perform roughly equivalently.

[paicrai]

what qualifies as gadget

[Gaspar]

I'd say something you often have to explain what it's for/what it does.

My phone as the TV remote. So awesome

Hell yeah. I actually learned android programming so I could write a decent Plex remote, works great.

It will be a gift, being a *japanese* design (made in taiwan), bpa free, drinkable directly, 12 oz, kawai colors and at a reasonable price in Europe (I checked) are good things in this context.
But I hear you.

Found an old ipod that is going to be my audiobook device now that I no longer work and cant spend as much on audiobooks :/

Use this every damn day before the last period. Usually during 5th period. Sometimes 6th.

[nickheller]

Sometimes I like going in the mail room and weighing random things on the scale. I should bring in all my keyboards and weigh those.
