Bulbcap for Naked Bulbs!

Can’t afford a real lamp shade but you want a condom-like cover for your naked bulbs?

Well, you can always get the Bulbcap for that. They come in different colors so…

The Bulbcap is a lampshade, slightly more than a lightbulb. The caps are directly pulled over the lightbulbs of up to 40 watts. Any wattage can work when using economical lightbulbs. The Bulbcaps can be fixed on hanging bulbs from the ceiling, or on standing lamps of any kind. Mix and match various colors to create a collage of lights!

AA Batteries that can be recharged via USB!

AA Batteries that can be recharged via USB!

Now, you can officially charge your AA batteries with USB!

The high quality batteries (1450mAh) will power any device you need them for, then when the time comes take them out, pop off the caps and insert them into a USB port for quick easy charging. There is even a handy blue LED to show when the batteries are charging which turns off when they are fully charged. No more bulky chargers and unsafe cables all over the place. These are also environmentally friendly as they contain none of the harmful cadmium in Ni Cads and none of the resource waste from traditional alkaline batteries

Here’s a funny hack using a cellphone, wires, and a 16pF capacitor.

Take one SonyEricsson K800i, rewire the capacitor (which feeds the camera flash) with a pair of 16uf caps and you have a cell phone capable of dumping those farads into a human body. Just take a photo using the camera’s xenon flash and shoot.

If you can’t read the multimeter in murk of what looks like a typical teenager’s bedroom, it shows 300 volts. Cameron20020, the video’s creator, describes it thus:

“…while it doesn’t make a big spark, it hurts a f*****g lot.”
