RC car moves just by wiggling the remote
If you want a remote controlled car, you just need to go to the first toy store and choose. But if you’re looking for something more than just another RC vehicle, check out the Infrared Tracker RC Car. Beside the futuristic design, the interesting thing here is the remote. You don’t get buttons and knobs [...]
Animated hitch covers save your car’s ass
How do the drivers behind you tell when you’re braking? You would think they’d notice the red lights… but unfortunately getting a driver’s license doesn’t include an IQ test, so you never know. And if you’ve got a hitch, it’s an accident begging to happen. Or at least that’s what you must think in order [...]
The CarMD helps you translate engine codes and identify car problems
Although we would like to think so, not all of us know exactly how a car works, so at times it can be very difficult to figure out what the problem is. Cue going to a repair shop, wasting time and money a.s.o. The CarMD Handheld Engine Code Reader was designed to help with this. [...]
Have a party anywhere with the Party-A-CarGo
Finally, a way to become the envy of all your friends (and a lot of passers-by): the Party-A-CarGo, a self-contained beer kegerator/entertainment system. What does that mean exactly? A big box you can mount on your car that can offer the three ingredients for a perfect weekend party: beer, music and TV. And it goes [...]
tiwi system lets parents monitor children’s driving behavior
If you think your teen can’t be trusted to drive a cat without speeding, just don’t give it to him/her. Or, if you want to be a control freak, try the tiwi. All right, it’s not that bad. Seeing how many drivers make serious mistakes out of inexperience or attempts to be “cool”, a nagging [...]
Never walk into a hot or freezing cold car again: get a remote car starter
As you might have noticed (the sweltering heat, the sun, the sweat…), it’s summer. And you know that feeling of getting into a car that’s 10 degrees hotter than the outside (which is already too hot). It would be awful nice to be able to get the car cooled down without turning on the AC [...]
Garage Butler makes you feel like a lord. Maybe.
Perhaps you dream that one day you will be rich enough to own a luxurious mansion with an attached big garage with 3 or so cars, plus the necessary house staff including a butler to make you feel like a British lord. Well, sorry to break it to you, but for most of us that’s [...]
Put the time you spend caught in traffic to good use with a car laptop desk
The biggest downside to living in a big city, in my opinion, is the hours you waste every day stuck in traffic. Imagine how much you could get done in that time! But since you have a big steering wheel in front of you, it’s difficult to hold anything in you lap or in front [...]
Jump start your car without the mess and trouble
Not all car owners know much about cars. And, as long as there’s people paid to know this stuff, there’s not much incentive to find out. Until you end up with a problem you need to solve and you’re clueless about the way your car works… The Closed-Hood Car Jump Starter is a very simple [...]
Can’t see the time? Car clock projector comes to the rescue!
I never understood why some car manufacturers put the clock in a position visible only for the driver. Is the person in the passenger seat forbidden to know the time? It’s easier for the driver to see the time if it’s on the dashboard, but that doesn’t mean a second clock isn’t needed. Since you [...]
