The minimalist clock

We all need to know the time, even if it is only once a day. But many of the clocks that are around these days are mainly all casing and with a tiny clock mechanism that runs the important stuff, like the hands.

So it is great to see a clock that has been cut back to the minimum, with only the battery used as a stand and a plain flat sheet as the clock face. But can be used anywhere that you want, home or work.

This cool digital clock will only cost $40.

Electric plant prototype
Do you ever get fed up with all of those electrical sockets that lay empty? Well you can now brighten them up with a nice flower planter. Now that is flower power!

These have been designed by serial socket filler Scott Amron of Die Electric, who has made installations for the electric sockets out of some very odd things indeed, including fire extinguishers, corks, glass and cables, some are very arty indeed which is great, because they make use of the space that does not really look nice on the best of days.
The planter electric socket covers are priced at $225.

Moving LED coffee table
The LED lights move when something is placed on or near the table, so if you placed a glass of wine on it the light would move to be on underneath it, the same goes if you waved your hand over the table, the light come on and follow your movement. The surface can be made from either glass or plastic, depending on your preference.

Inside the table there are 32 infrared sensors which pick up the move or close proximity and therefore activate the lights all 480 of them. As you move the light come on and off with the movement.
The table does not use as much power as you would expect, only 35 Watts when fully active, which is around the same as a single household light bulb. It measures 62 “ L x 31 “ W x 18 “ H, and these tables are made to order, which can between four to six weeks.
The prices of the fantastic looking table start at around $2,500.

Bright spark light bulb
You may be wondering exactly why a light bulb is listed as a gadget, well it may have the appearance of a humble light bulb, and in fact it does actually illuminate to a certain extent, but this device is also a sophisticated time piece.

On one you have the light, and the other side has an LCD display, which shows the current time, date and temperature. Powered by battery, you will also get a really great light show from the LED which runs through a color cycle with a variety of colors that could be nice and relaxing.
The colorful light bulb is priced at $12.

Nine volt colored lights

These little lights look like a lipstick at first, but you can quickly work out exactly what it is and how it works, for the battery is makes up part of the lights body and blends in pretty good too.

But these light were originally designed by Richard Lawson as an entry for a competition, however this design was not one of the chosen pieces to go into production, but that has now been rectified and they are in production and have now been put up for sale on the Charles and Marie website.

These little lights are ideal for emergencies or camping etc; the colors are red and blue.
