Ti Arto EDC :The Ultimate Refill Friendly Everyday Carry Pen
What is it?
The Ti Arto EDC is the latest project from Big Idea Design. This is an update to the Ti Arto Pen that I reviewed and still use daily.
Why do I like it?
I love everything that Big Idea Design creates. I use their original Ti Arto pen every day at home and I carry their Ti Pocket Pro Pen with me every day too. I know the Ti Arto EDC will be a successful project and a great pen because everything that they create has been awesome so far. The Ti Arto EDC improves on the original Ti Arto by subtle updates and major updates to the mechanism which allows for 100’s of different pen refills to be used with this pen.
Where can I find more info?
The Ti Arto EDC campaign ends in 35 days and they have already blown past their funding goal of $5,000. You can pre-order a Ti Arto EDC pen starting at $65. After the Ti Arto EDC campaign ends, rewards are estimated to start shipping in May 2018. Visit their Kickstarter page for all the details.
AmpliFi Teleport : The Home Wi-Fi that Covers the World
What is it?
AmpliFi Teleport is a small adapter that allows you to connect to your home network’s AmpliFi router and use the network resources from anywhere in the world.
Why do I like it?
I already know that AmpliFi makes great networking devices because I reviewed the original AmpliFi WiFi router and loved it. I used it exclusively for a year until I switched to a new home broadband provider which requires their own router. I’d love to try out the Teleport because it looks like the perfect device to take with you when you travel so that you can connect to your home network and all the devices at home like your home security, printers, backup drives, etc.
Where can I find more info?
The AmpliFi Teleport campaign ends in 8 days and they are less than $5,000 from their funding goal of $50,000. You can pre-order an AmpliFi Teleport starting at $89. After the AmpliFi Teleport campaign ends, rewards are estimated to start shipping in December 2017. Visit their Kickstarter page for all the details.
Wolffepack Luna: UltraEasy Baby Changing Backpack Diaper Bag
What is it?
The Wolffepack Luna is a specially designed backpack diaper bag that swings to the front, without the hassle of unstrapping.
Why do I like it?
Dennis reviewed the Wolffepack Metro backpack two years ago and really liked the ability to access the contents of the bag without removing it from his back. The Wolffepack Luna now gives parents that same functionality with this newly designed diaper bag that provides one-handed access even if the other hand/arm is holding baby.
Where can I find more info?
The Wolffepack Luna campaign ends in 19 days and they are currently $5,000 from their funding goal of $19,716. You can pre-order a Wolffepack Luna starting at $89. After the Wolffepack Luna campaign ends, rewards are estimated to start shipping in December 2017. Visit their Kickstarter page for all the details.
GoBag | The Vacuum Compressible Carry-on Backpack
What is it?
The GoBag is the ultimate travel vacuum compressable backpack that will allow you to leave your regular luggage at home so you can skip the baggage carousel.
Why do I like it?
Every time we go on a trip, we pack a large rolling suitcase and another smaller rolling suitcase to hold all our toiletry items. rolling the bags around the airport, checking them in, and paying extra baggage fees means hassle and money. The GoBag looks like a great way to avoid hassle and fees because it’s been designed to hold a week’s worth of clothes while still allowing for easy access to your laptop and other gear.
Where can I find more info?
The GoBag campaign ends in 29 days and they have already passed their funding goal of $13,144. You can pre-order a GoBag starting at $163. After the GoBag campaign ends, rewards are estimated to start shipping in June 2018. Visit their Kickstarter page for all the details.
LUDICASE: Fidget iPhone X case
What is it?
LUDICASE turns your iPhone 6/7/8 or iPhone X into a fidget spinner. No, I’m not kidding.
Why do I like it?
I like it because it’s goofy and fun. Everyone wants to wring out as much juice from the fidget spinner fad as possible and this case is not something I expected. It’s definitely a conversation starter.
Where can I find more info?
The LUDICASE campaign ends in 23 days and they have already passed their funding goal of $10,000. You can pre-order a LUDICASE starting at $15. After the LUDICASE campaign ends, rewards are estimated to start shipping in December 2017. Visit their Indiegogo page for all the details.
Gravity Museum – Space Exploration Kit on your tabletop.
What is it?
The Gravity Museum is a new project from the same folks that created the MoonDrop project that we talked about this past spring.
Why do I like it?
I like the Gravity Museum because it sparks your imagination and makes you think about other planets besides the one we’re on right now. It looks like a great little table top science lab for kids and adults who are interested in astronomy and space.
Where can I find more info?
The Gravity Museum campaign ends in 28 days and they are still working towards their funding goal of $26,288. You can pre-order a Gravity Museum starting at $92. After the Gravity Museum campaign ends, rewards are estimated to start shipping in March 2018. Visit their Kickstarter page for all the details.
