This projection alarm clock is pretty cool. It has a lot of features most radio alarm clocks have, and a few that are not so common. My favorite function on this clock, of course, is the ability to project the time onto the ceiling. I love this because I always sleep on my back, and

The best thing about a wrist watch is that they can tell you the time whenever you look at your wrist. But the worst thing about most watches is that they run on batteries and batteries need replacing or recharging. I say βmostβ watches run on batteries because not all of them do. Today I

Weβve shown you several Nixie tube clocks, chess sets, and thermometers over the years, but they all were steampunk in style. Β Many of them were also kits that you needed to assemble yourself.
