This has got to be a winner, imagine balancing on the edge of a chair while you try and change a light bulb, only to find that it is still hot or when you put it in the light switch is on and you get blinded by the light?

Well worry no more for there is help out there with the motorized bulb changer, how good is that? Well it is really good reaching up to 17ft high and even has a remote control for those awkward times when you just can’t get to.

Naturally when you are super wealthy there is not much that you need, apart from health and friendship. So you have to buy something pretty spectacular to impress them and their friends, I mean that is all that matters doesn’t it?

This is the Lantic Systems, solid gold remote control for everything on the yacht! This can control home media and automation systems including video, audio, internet, CCTV, alarm, lights, curtains, air-conditioning and even navigation systems.

So naturally there is a need for a yacht here, but it may be ok in the home, but would seem to be a little being extravagant, but if you can afford a yacht then maybe this is the only thing that they would want.

Priced at $55,000.

Wow, check out these new color changing RGB Lamps! Although it’s not new tech, we give thumbs up for the design!

The lamp uses 4 LEDs, two red, one blue, and one green. By increasing, reducing, brightening or dimming each LED you get different colors!

The lamp uses a remote control so you can change LivingColors settings from anywhere in the room. What is smart on this remote is the fact that it remembers your last settings so you don’t need to reselect them.

The price for Philips LivingColors is £120.00. The product wasn’t release on the market, but you can preorder one from the Red5.co.uk shop.
