Pocket Power Plus is a book-sized device that weighs one pound and promises to run all of your electronic devices while also helping to jumpstart vehicles. Here’s our Pocket Power Plus review. Pocket Power Plus calls itself a pocket-sized device that “lets you create your own personal “Micro-Grid””. The device weighs one pound and is priced at around $120. The device features 16 different types of adapters, which means you can charge just about any of your electronic adapters using it. There’s also jumper cables included with your purchase, which means you can jumpstart a vehicle if you’re away from a power source.

Nike Air Mag Review

Ever since Back to the Future Part II came out and tickled my fanciful soul with the Nike Air Mag, I've been waiting to get my hands on a pair. They're finally real and oh my god they're so dreaaamy. If there was one disappointment about Nike's awesome Back to the Future II Air Mag, it's that the shoes didn't have Marty's power laces (and that they only made 1,500 and neither you nor I own a pair). But Nike designer Tinker Hatfield says that's about to change—power laces are coming in 2015. The future is here!
The upper of the shoe is made of reinforced mesh. The outer sole is lined with LED panels that'll light up just like all futuristic shoes imagined in the 80's should (we're not talking corny LA Gear shoes here, people). The Air Mag is rechargeable and will stay lit for 5 hours. There's also a electroluminescent Nike logo in the strap. It's pretty much the exact replica of the pair of shoes Marty McFly famously wore with a few slight tweaks to add more support and comfort.
Here's the great news about the Back to the Future Nikes: they're being made for a great cause as the proceeds will go to the Michael J. Fox Foundation in the hopes of finding a cure for Parkinson's disease.
The less good news? Well, in the larger scope of things, there isn't any bad news. Parkinson's is a terrible disease and benefiting the search for a cure is always a good thing. For sneakerheads looking to score the shoe of their lifetime though, the Air Mags is going to be really hard to come by as only 1500 pairs will be made. Even harder is that each pair will be put up for auction on eBay. The auction starts tonight at 11:30 EST at nikemag.eBay.com.
Crushing the far-fetched dream of wearing 2015 technology on your feet though, the shoes won't be power lacing. That's okay! Everything else about the shoe is as beautiful as when I first fell in love with it. And who knows what'll happen when it's actually 2015? Michael J. Fox is slated to be on Letterman tonight, so we'll all see the official unveiling there.
They're just a pair of shoes, yes, but they might as well be Doc Brown and a DeLorean with a Flux Capacitor—I feel like a kid all over again. I can't wait to put them on. [Nike, Image Credit: @crookedtongues, @AmyJoMartin and High Snobiety]
While Apple, Fitbit and Xiaomi have ensured that smartwatches and fitness trackers create the most buzz in the wearable tech space, smart jewellery is quietly building up a solid following by offering a more fashionable and discreet alternative for both women and men. Due to their small size, smart rings in particular are tricky AF to get right . And many startups are running into legal or financial trouble too. We've trawled the world of wearables to seek out the most interesting smart rings - the good, the bad and the very, very ugly… This sleep tracking and analysing smart ring raised a ton of money on Kickstarter and actually shipped to backers. Some users have reported woes with things like connectivity but there's a lot here to like. The app uses data on how well you've slept and does something useful with it - Oura provides you with a readiness score for the day. Plus, it makes personalised suggestions and can show you trends over time. It comes in th
Yolk's Solar Paper can have huge appeal to those who appreciate significant functionality in a compact form – not unlike how modern smartphone size belies its overall capability. As thin as a slim-cased "phablet" and a mere two fingers taller and half a finger wider, Solar Paper is about as portable as you can get without much sacrifice. Many similarly-powered solar panels fold up to the size of a sheet of paper, but tend to be twice as thick as a standard tablet. Yolk's version measures 19 x 9 x 1.1 cm (7.5 x 3.5 x 0.4 in) at a scant 170 g (6 oz). So if you prefer gadgets that are lightweight and pocket-friendly, Solar Paper certainly makes an excellent choice. The base unit features an LCD screen and dual USB ports mounted at the top of the printed circuit board. The matte black solar cells are gridded by gold accents, all of it left uncovered from any glass, plastic, or laminate. For those into subdued, classy appearances, Solar Paper does it quite nicely.
