This Genius Modular Power Strip Lets You Swap Outlets, USB Ports, and Wireless Pads Like LEGO Bricks

Posted on by

Every power strip you’ve ever bought was designed for someone else. Too many USB-A ports when you need USB-C. No wireless charging. Or it has wireless charging but not enough wired ports. You’re stuck buying what manufacturers think you need, not what you actually need. TobenOne flips that script entirely. It’s a modular magnetic charging hub you build yourself. Snap on the modules you want, skip the ones you don’t. Need more USB-C? Add a module. Upgrade your setup later? Swap it out. It’s your desk, your devices, your rules.

The concept sounds almost embarrassingly obvious once you see it. A sleek aluminum rail serves as your base, and four circular magnetic modules snap onto it in whatever configuration makes sense for your setup. One module handles Qi wireless charging for your phone. Another packs three USB-C ports. There’s a USB-A 2.0 module for legacy gear and a hybrid USB-A 3.0 plus USB-C module for high-speed data transfer (I’ll dive into this later). The whole thing connects to your laptop via a single cable, and from there you can rearrange the modules however you want. It’s like someone finally asked “what if power strips worked like LEGO?” and actually followed through.

Most of us have been through this cycle multiple times. You buy a hub or power strip based on your current gear. Six months later you upgrade your phone or laptop or tablet, and suddenly the thing you bought has the wrong port mix. Maybe you needed more USB-C than you thought. Maybe that wireless charging pad you bought separately is now just another piece of desk clutter taking up space. The traditional solution is to buy another hub, add to your desk clutter like another Jenga block along with other power strips/bricks/dongles, and pretend your cable management isn’t spiraling into chaos.

TobenOne’s approach means you buy a system once and just shape-shift it based on your current or future needs. The modules are independent of the strip itself, so when USB-C becomes even more dominant than it already is, you don’t trash your entire hub. You just swap out one module for another. It’s a small shift in thinking that has surprisingly large implications for how we manage our tech ecosystems. And this doesn’t just mean convenience, it’s a much more sustainable approach too. E-waste from obsolete charging gear is a legitimate problem, and modular design that lets you replace components instead of entire devices is one of the few practical ways to address it without requiring everyone to become minimalist monks who own three possessions.

The execution is incredibly clean – the modules themselves are incredibly sleek, all brushed metal sides and matte black tops with minimal branding. When you snap them onto the base, they sit flush and lock in with what appears to be strong enough magnetic force to stay put during normal use. There’s even a volume control module that lets you adjust your computer’s audio directly from the hub, which feels like the kind of small quality-of-life feature that gives your power strip some power-user features. No more fumbling with software volume sliders or keyboard shortcuts. Just twist the module. Clever, no?

The modules attach to the front, but two USB-C ports on the side deliver power input and output. Plug the TobenOne into a power source and it’s good to go… plug the other USB-C end into your laptop and it becomes a passthrough charger while also giving those modules data connectivity to your laptop. That means you can use USB-A ports not just for charging devices, but also for connecting thumb drives, hard disks, etc. for high-speed data transfer. Suddenly your power strip is capable of so much more. And you could choose to keep the TobenOne on your table, or even wall-mount it so that you can attach your phone to its MagSafe module directly to the wall. That gives you full control without all the desk clutter. It’s a power strip, but it’s also a dongle, but it’s also a convenient companion that doesn’t get in the way of your minimalist desk setup.

And the LEGO meets IKEA meets MagSafe meets every tech user’s needs approach is just sheer genius (I honestly wonder why nobody built this before). You’re literally building your own charging solution the way you’d build with blocks, except these blocks and the arrangements you make have actual utility beyond satisfying your inner child. It’s personal, just the way your IKEA furniture feels personal because you made it ‘for yourself’. The magnetic attachment system borrows from Apple’s MagSafe philosophy. That satisfying click when things snap into place, the alignment guides that make sure everything sits correctly, the ease of detachment when you need to reconfigure. There’s no complex assembly. No configuration software. No firmware updates to manage. You literally just snap things together and they work. That balance is harder to strike than it sounds, and most modular tech products fail by skewing too far in one direction or the other.

The modular design gives you a whopping eleven total ports and charging options across all four modules when fully loaded. That’s wireless charging plus ten wired connections, which should be more than enough for most desk setups unless you’re running a home server farm. The base model at roughly $89 USD feels extremely value-forward for what’s being offered, but early bird Kickstarter pricing always provide discounts to attract early adopters. Expect the retail price to land somewhere around $179 once this actually ships. Even at that price point, the value proposition holds up when you consider you’re replacing multiple separate chargers, hubs, and wireless charging pads with a single integrated system.

I spent all of 2025 touting how GaN chargers were the future of tech (because of how tiny and powerful they are)… the TobenOne fleshes out an alternate reality in which the power strip isn’t ‘dead’, it’s replaced by something more shape-shifting, more modular, more ‘you’. Want to JUST have plug points? Go ahead. Maybe want to swap them ALL for USB ports? That’s allowed too. Can sacrifice one idle module? Take it out and add a MagSafe charger for your phone… or better still, the volume knob that lets you control your desktop/laptop’s system volume. The power strip suddenly becomes a hub… and stops being the archaic device that never really changed in all these decades. Pretty cool, isn’t it?

Your Floor Cleaner Is Just Spreading Dirty Water. BSTY’s Dual-Tank System Fixes It.

Posted on by

The lines between form and function have never been blurrier, or more beautiful, than they are in today’s best home tech. The BSTY Dual-Action Cordless Floor Washer is a testament to this evolution, offering a singular device that manages to look as sharp as it performs. Its seamless integration of vacuuming, steam mopping, and self-cleaning mechanisms is tailored for those who want their spaces immaculate, but never at the expense of visual serenity. This is not merely another entry in the crowded floor-care market; it’s a thoughtfully considered piece of hardware that addresses the entire life cycle of a chore, from start to finish.

Let’s be honest, the way we clean floors is broken. It’s a clumsy, multi-stage process that often feels like you’re just moving dirt around. You start with the vacuum, wrestling with a cord or racing against a dying battery to suck up the crumbs, the pet hair, and the dust. Then comes the second act: the mop. You’re either sloshing a dirty string-mop around in a bucket of increasingly murky water, or you’re using a fancy hybrid cleaner that often just turns dry debris into a wet, gritty paste. It solves one problem by creating another. The BSTY project seems to have started with a deep, almost obsessive, understanding of this frustration.

Designer: BSTY

Click Here to Buy Now: $399 $599 ($200 off). Hurry, only 15/50 left. Raised over $61,000.

The solution begins with a simple, elegant workflow that is physically built into the machine. As you push the BSTY forward, it’s a dedicated dry vacuum. The front of the cleaning head houses a system that delivers a full 20,000Pa of suction, a figure that puts it in the upper echelon of cordless stick vacuums. That’s enough power to lift embedded dirt from grout lines and grab pet hair without just rolling over it. All that dry debris is whisked away into its own separate container. Then, on the pull-back motion, the mopping system engages. A fresh stream of water, which can be heated up to a steamy 100°C in the tank, wets a microfiber roller that scrubs the floor. The dirty water is immediately lifted off the roller and funneled into a second, completely separate dirty water tank. This clever little feature is a fundamental re-engineering of the hybrid cleaner, ensuring that dirty water never gets a second chance to touch your clean floor.

Beyond just using hot water for mopping, the BSTY integrates a true 180°C steam function. This is a significant leap beyond the boiling point, generating a dry, high-temperature steam that can sanitize surfaces and break down greasy, stuck-on messes without a drop of chemical cleaner. It’s a feature that will appeal to anyone with kids, pets, or just a healthy aversion to chemical residues. This focus on thermal cleaning creates a more effective, hygienic result. And it manages to pack this technology into a cordless body that delivers a solid 40 minutes of runtime, all while operating at a reported 50 decibels in its quiet mode, which is about the level of a calm conversation. The physical design is just as considered. The entire unit can pivot to lay completely flat, a 180-degree articulation that finally allows a machine this powerful to slide all the way under a low-profile sofa or media console.

But the most insightful piece of design might be what happens after the cleaning is done. Anyone who owns a current-generation floor washer knows the secret shame of the post-clean cleanup: rinsing a filthy roller, scrubbing a grimy water tank, and leaving the parts to air-dry, hoping they don’t develop a funky, mildewed smell. The BSTY’s docking station is designed to eliminate this final, frustrating step. When you dock the machine, it automatically begins a self-cleaning cycle, flushing the roller and internal tubing with clean water. But then it initiates the real game-changer: a high-temperature drying cycle. It circulates hot air through the brush head, leaving the roller completely dry, clean, and free of the moisture that breeds bacteria and odor. This isn’t just about convenience; it’s about making the entire ownership experience better. It ensures the machine is genuinely ready for its next use, not waiting for you to reassemble its damp components.

The early-bird pricing is set at $399, which is a considerable discount from the planned $599 retail price, positioning it as an aggressive play for early adopters who are tired of the status quo. For that price, the package appears to be comprehensive. The box includes the main BSTY unit, the crucial self-cleaning and charging dock that completes the automated experience, a power adapter, a spare roller brush for good measure, a small cleaning tool for any manual maintenance, and a 1-year warranty. The campaign is targeting a global shipping window around March of next year, aiming to bring this thoughtful approach to floor care into homes just in time for spring cleaning!

Best Black Friday Deal for Home Theater? JMGO 4K Projectors at Up to 32% Off

Posted on by

I’ll come out clean – I don’t own a TV. I live in a rented house, I have a beautiful bare wall that I don’t want to ruin with a TV mount drilled in (which I’ll have to cover in my security deposit once I leave), so instead of a TV, I bought a projector… and it was the best investment I made. My budget projector outputs 1080p, but the screen measures nearly a hundred inches, making it more than 5x larger than a television I would have bought with the same amount of money. The point is, don’t buy a TV this Black Friday. Buy a projector.

Projectors are compact, have the same smart features as smart TVs, and cast images multiple times larger and more immersive than your average 37″ or 42″ television. Plus, with the right deal, a projector can cost well within your TV budget, giving you a mini cinema experience at home. You don’t need to go searching on the internet for the ‘right deal’ though, because JMGO’s running a pretty sweet Black Friday sale on their two most popular projector lines. Whether you want a fancy 4K projector or something compact enough to carry in your laptop bag, these projectors fit well within every requirement and budget – thanks to discounts of up to 32%!

Designer: JMGO

JMGO N1S Ultimate 4K

The flagship in JMGO’s N1S series, this one made its debut at IFA 2024 in Berlin. Designed as a gimbal-mounted projector, the N1S Ultimate 4K can be positioned anywhere and it will automatically keystone and focus-adjust your image (even intelligently avoiding objects like shelves or wall-hangings), letting you watch movies on your wall or even your ceiling. The projector outputs 4K with a max size of 180-inches at a whopping 3500 ANSI Lumens, which means you can watch movies even in moderately lit rooms without always needing to switch the lights or draw the curtains.

The N1S Ultimate 4K’s stellar clarity comes thanks to JMGO’s MALC™ (Multi-Layer Adaptive Laser Control) 2.0 Triple Laser Optics – which helps it maintain clarity and sharpness even in high brightness (something traditional laser projectors fail at). It even packs a 20W subwoofer and 45Hz ultra-bass for booming audio. On the software front, Google TV gives you access to all your favorite streaming apps, along with Wi-fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 support, two HDMI 2.1 jacks for streaming sticks or game consoles, and two USB-A 2.0 jacks for connecting hard-disks or pen-drives.

Our Verdict

The MALC™ 2.0 Triple Laser Optics is the star of the show here. I previewed the projector during the day in a well-lit booth at IFA and the visuals were still surprisingly crisp and high-contrast. 4K output with intelligent auto-focus and keystone really makes using the projector a breeze. Imagine having a TV anywhere in your house – even the ceiling! Being JMGO’s flagship, this one has a $2799 price tag, but a 29% discount brings it down to just $1999.

Click Here to Buy Now: $1999 $2799 ($800 off). Hurry, deal ends on 30th Nov, 2025.

JMGO N1S Ultra 4K

Following the N1S gimbal-centric design, the N1S Ultra 4K is a step below its sibling the N1S Ultimate, but still has stunning specs that keep it at flagship standards. The projector outputs 4K with even support for BluRay 3D (you’ll JMGO’s active-shutter 3D glasses) but skips out on the MALC™ 2.0 Triple Laser Optics system that debuted in JMGO’s other N1S projectors. Still, you’ve got a VERY respectable 3000 ANSI Lumen output which means bright visuals no matter what time of the day.

The gimbal-mounted projector can be faced anywhere, with automatic focus, keystone correction, and intelligent object avoidance. I can’t stress enough how impressive this is. Face the projector anywhere and it turns practically any surface into a clear 4K television! The N1S Ultra 4K also comes with Google TV and all your favorite streaming apps, along with Wi-fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, two HDMI 2.1 ports, and 2 USB-A 2.0 ports for max connectivity. There’s a 3.5mm port for external speakers too, although the N1S Ultra packs dual 20W speakers with Dolby Digital Plus for immersive sound.

Our Verdict

With a 32% discount that brings its $2499 price down to $1699, the N1S Ultra 4K might be the only 4K projector that packs 3D support at a sub-2000 price tag. The gimbal and auto-image-correction features are absolute *chef’s kiss*, which means you spend less time fiddling with a remote and more time watching your favorite movies – or even playing your favorite games, thanks to the HDMI port that lets you hook your PS5 or Nintendo Switch and play on a massive 100″ screen!

Click Here to Buy Now: $1699 $2499 ($800 off). Hurry, deal ends on 30th Nov, 2025.

JMGO N1S Pro 4K

The N1S Pro 4K launched alongside the Ultimate this year, boasting the same MALC™ (Multi-Layer Adaptive Laser Control) 2.0 Triple Laser Optics that gives it stunning quality even at the highest brightness. The N1S Pro has the same gimbal-centric design as all its siblings in the series, which creates a sense of visual cohesion while looking gorgeously premium. At 2400 ANSI Lumens of brightness, the N1S Pro 4K is the perfect balance between great output and great cost.

The N1S Pro shares all the features with its higher-priced sibling, the Ultimate 4K. This includes 4K support, smart image correction (focus, keystone, etc.), the 20W dual speaker system with 45Hz bass, built-in Google TV with all your streaming apps, and all the connectivity features and ports from Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1 to the HDMI 2.1 ports and USB-A 2.0 ports.

Our Verdict

With a $1999 price tag brought down to $1299 ($700 discount), the N1S Pro 4K easily gets our editor’s pick for best output at best value. A gimbal-mounted 4K Smart Projector with dual speakers and smart features at an almost sub-1500 price tag is frankly a no-brainer. Instead of throwing money at 50-60″ QLED TVs that cost a lot and can’t be moved around, why not spend the same amount on a 4K projector that casts nearly a 100″ display on any surface – and can be carried around with you from room to room, or even a friend’s place?

Click Here to Buy Now: $1299 $1999 ($700 off). Hurry, deal ends on 30th Nov, 2025.

JMGO N1S

The JMGO N1S is the most affordable in the series, with 1080p output, 900 ANSI Lumens of max brightness, and running a triple-laser optic setup that’s just a grade below the company’s cutting-edge MALC™ 2.0 system. For its affordable price tag, you get the same gimbal design, Google TV on the inside with support for over 10,000 streaming apps like Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Disney+, and others, with a maximum projection size of 180 inches and the same automatic focus and keystone correction that happens without needing to lift a finger.

Like its other counterparts, the N1S has support for 3D playback when coupled with JMGO’s active-shutter glasses (available separately). The portable format, coupled with the gimbal, makes the N1S a perfect projector for someone who wants to dip their toe in this category without breaking the bank. 10W speakers for this price point are perfect too, and an abundance of connectivity options lets you explore multiple setups just like you would with a TV.

Our Verdict

At 1080p of output, you may miss 4K in theory, but you won’t miss it in practicality. I own a 1080p projector and with streaming, it’s near impossible to tell the difference between streaming 4K on the internet and streaming 1080p unless you know what you’re watching out for. The JMGO N1S is priced at $999, making it the most affordable in JMGO’s gimbal-style N1S series. That much for a 180-inch-wide projection that also supports 3D feels too good to be true!

Click Here to Buy Now: $899 $999 ($100 off). Hurry, deal ends on 30th Nov, 2025.

JMGO PicoFlix

Want to push your budget even lower, JMGO’s PicoFlix might be their most affordable projector on Black Friday discount. It isn’t a part of the N1S series, which means no gimbal – but the PicoFlix more than makes up for that by being a 1080p FHD projector that’s the size of a Pringles can. The PicoFlix has its own built-in battery, which means you can move from room to room with your ‘television’ or even slip it into a tote bag and carry it to a friend’s place.

The PicoFlix may not have a 2-axis gimbal like the N1S series, but it does have a 127° rotational axis that lets you face it either forwards, at an angle, or directly upwards for watching movies on the ceiling. You’ve got support for up to a 120″ projection at FHD, and even BluRay 3D, with intelligent image correction features via the JMGO app. However, the PicoFlix caps out at 450 ANSI Lumens, which means you’ll need to draw the curtains to watch a movie. A 10,000mAh battery gives you up to 4.5 hours of movie time when used in Eco Mode, and here’s the kicker – the tiny projector still packs 10W dual speakers with Dolby Audio.

Our Verdict

The PicoFlix’s 25% discount brings its $599 price down to $449, making it cheaper than even a mid-tier smartphone. For its specs, that’s a solid recommend, although the 450 ANSI Lumens may be on the lower end for some purists. At that price, 1080p and 3D BluRay support is pretty phenomenal too, and having a projector portable enough to carry around in your palm does feel like quite the flex if you like the idea of watching movies, shows, and sports on the large screen.

Click Here to Buy Now: $449 $599 ($150 off). Hurry, deal ends on 30th Nov, 2025.

Best Scented Candle Cards to Leave a Lasting Impression

Posted on by

Candles are one of the oldest ways man has brought light and warmth into the world, and while electricity and bulbs now fulfill that function, candles still have meaning beyond providing illumination.

They have become almost symbolic, representing ideas, hopes, and emotions, or they come with scents and designs that tickle the senses or soothe the soul.

Candles have become the perfect medium to convey feelings and create memories, and this simple yet innovative design combines an extra-thin aromatic candle with an equally thin multi-purpose packaging that lets you send a more personal and more memorable message that delights the senses and warms the heart as the candle flame dances and spreads a soothing fragrance throughout your room.

The Problem: Forgettable, Distant Messages

E-mail and instant messaging have made the world a smaller place, allowing us to immediately reach people half a world away in the blink of an eye. While that does open up new channels of communication, it has also made messaging feel less personal and, ironically, more distant.

It’s almost too easy to just pick an emoji, sticker, or animated GIF to convey a message, almost like simply cutting out a random picture from a magazine and sending it to your friend as a birthday card. It technically works, but not in a way that you’d remember for years to come.

There will always be a need to have more meaningful and memorable connections, and sometimes doing it the old-school physical way has more impact. You could always write a personal message on a card by hand, by why not go the extra mile and send something that really conveys your intentions not just through words but also through the sights and smells of a fragrant candle?

That’s the complete package that this unique candle and card combination offers to make sending personalized messages not only more effective but also faster and more affordable as well.

Why this is the Best Scented Candle for Cards

Scented candles aren’t new, but few of them could be easily mailed using standard postage stamps. This aromatic candle and its packaging, however, are so thin that it be easily sent with a 94 Japanese Yen standard stamp, removing the hassles of sending packages and whatnot.

Using the message card is simple as well. The sender writes their heart-warming message on the card and mails it, while the receiver takes out the thin candle, stands it on the indicated slot on the packaging, lights up the candle, and enjoys its fragrance as they read the message and watch the little flame dance.

You might have reservations about lighting a candle that’s standing on paper packaging, but this aromatic candle card is specially designed to protect you while you bask in the emotive experience. The packaging is made from fire-retardant paper, so it will only turn black without flaming up when burned.

The candle itself also has a natural extinguishing design where it only burns halfway through, around 30 minutes, before it dies out. All you have to do is light up the candle and sit back as you enjoy the sensations that it brings.

Who This Scented Candle Card is For

Candles have a naturally enchanting aura about them, with the flickering flame causing you to sometimes zone out in deep thought. Candles have also traditionally been used to honor loved ones, whether on birthday cakes or on memorial sites. The emotions that the sight of a lighted candle can be as varied as the messages sent with it. Pair that with soothing aromas, and you’ve got the perfect blend for a memorable sensory experience.

Sakura (Pink): The delicate and elegant scent of cherry blossoms, capturing the essence of springtime in Japan, adds warmth and beauty to any space.

Green Tea (Green): A soothing blend of sweetness and bitterness, evoking calm and relaxation, making your “Thank You” even more meaningful.

Yuzu (Yellow): A refreshing and slightly bitter citrus aroma that invigorates the senses, perfect for brightening someone’s day.

With such a visual and olfactory treat, this aromatic candle message card makes for the perfect gift if you want to quickly send a heartfelt message that no app or email can adequately convey. Its compact packaging and safety features make it convenient to simply mail a package to your loved one without worrying too much about costs and logistics.

Step away from the chaotic and impersonal world of instant messaging once in a while and create a deeper and longer-lasting connection with this beautiful Scented Candle Card.

Maximize Holiday Hydration with Waterdrop Filter Reverse Osmosis Systems: Black Friday Deals

Posted on by

Just like the planet itself, our bodies need water in order to survive. Not just any water, of course, but clean and safe drinking water. With pollution in every corner, ensuring the purity of the water we consume is more important than ever. Water purifiers have become essential kitchen appliances, providing peace of mind and protecting our health, yet people are almost always on the fence when they should buy one.

With the holiday season fast approaching, there’s never a better time to make such an investment. With increased water usage during festive cooking and gatherings, having a reliable purifier ensures every sip is safe and refreshing. Fortunately, this is also a perfect time to grab a water filtration system with a sweet discount, and Waterdrop Filter’s Reverse Osmosis Systems are the perfect fit to quench your thirst for clean and safe water all year round.

Designer: Waterdrop Filter

Why are Water Purifiers Important for Homes

Having a water purifier at home means access to clean, safe water anytime. They remove contaminants, ensuring that every sip you take is safe and refreshing. It’s not just about taste; it’s about health. Purified water helps prevent waterborne diseases, supports better digestion, and even enhances the flavor of your cooking.

With holiday festivities around the corner, having a water purifier means access to clean, safe water for all your needs whether it’s for cooking or mixing a hot cup of cocoa. The growing awareness of water quality issues has caused more households to invest in these vital devices. Plus, with a water purifier, you can reduce your reliance on bottled water, saving money and reducing plastic waste. It’s a win-win for you and the environment!

Why Now is the Perfect Time to Buy A Water Purifier

Even if they know the critical benefits of clean drinking water, many households put off buying a system that serves the purified water they need. Some water filters are prohibitively expensive, perform poorly, and don’t meet their household’s needs, forcing homeowners to rely on tap that may not be as clean as they think. Well water often includes bacteria, parasites, and heavy metals, while municipal water would have chlorine as well as disinfection byproducts. Others put it off until family members get sick from the substances, parasites, and microorganisms that come with their drinking water.

If you’ve been considering a water purifier, there’s no better time than now to make the purchase. Black Friday discounts offers the perfect opportunity to make the purchase, allowing you to secure a top-quality purifier without breaking the bank. These deals make it easier to prioritize your family’s health and prepare for holiday gatherings without stretching your budget. Seize this chance to upgrade your kitchen and enjoy pure water throughout the festivities.

Choosing the Right Water Purifier: Waterdrop Filter Reverse Osmosis Systems

Incorporating a water purifier into your home is a smart move for health and convenience, but it shouldn’t be done haphazardly. When selecting a water purifier, consider factors like the type of filtration system, maintenance requirements, and capacity. Whether you opt for a reverse osmosis system, UV purifier, or a simple activated carbon filter, ensure it meets your needs.

Reverse osmosis (RO), in particular, has been proven to be a very efficient and cost-effective way to purify water and improve its taste. It is able to filter out nearly 95% of particles and dissolved contaminants in water without mixing in other substances that can also affect its taste. Just in time to prepare for the holiday season, Waterdrop Filter is giving three of its most popular RO systems some very sweet Black Friday discounts to meet every hydration and household need.

Waterdrop Filter X12 Reverse Osmosis System

Drink from the tap with the confidence of having filtered and purified water all the time with the Tankless Waterdrop Filter X12 RO under-sink system.

An 11-stage 16-layer precision filtration system promises water safety and quality while alkaline mineral infusion promotes health and elevates flavor.

With its smart and elegant design, the Waterdrop Filter X12 easily hides itself from sight, and its tankless design can save 50 to 70% of the space under the sink. With a hi-tech smart digital faucet, you can instantly see TDS and filter life information to keep track of your water quality. With a simple twist and a gentle tap, you can conveniently adjust the water volume you need to help prevent wasted water.

Why it’s noteworthy

  • 1,200 GPD Rapid Flow makes it feel like you’re simply turning on the tap and fill a cup in 3 seconds.

Of course, with a deep 5-in-1 filter that removes harmful substances, you don’t have to rely on heat only to guarantee the purity of your hot drink.

It’s almost a shame that you will rarely see the Waterdrop Filter K6’s stylish design, as it is meant to hide inconspicuously underneath kitchen sinks.

Anouk Wipprecht and the Scale Dress: Futuristic Fashion

Anouk Wipprecht, a visionary Dutch FashionTech Designer and Engineer, has partnered with ELEGOO to push the boundaries of fashion technology. She has developed a new modular system for integrating motors into fabrics, revolutionizing how garments can interact with the wearer and environment.

The Scale Dress not only captivates with its moving elements but also serves as a modular, open-source template for aspiring designers. Anouk Wipprecht has ensured that the design is accessible to those interested in robotic fashion. The servo-arms can be interchanged to hold various elements, addressing the challenge of integrating electronics with fabric and creating lifelike movements.

To empower others to explore this innovative realm, Anouk has open-sourced the Scale Dress design on her Instructables page. In collaboration with ELEGOO, she provides a detailed step-by-step guide on creating your own robotic dress with moving parts. The guide focuses on utilizing 9g servo arms, enabling creators to experiment and personalize their designs with ease.

This initiative not only highlights the potential of 3D printing and robotics in fashion but also encourages a new generation of designers to embrace technology. By sharing her knowledge and tools, Anouk Wipprecht is paving the way for more innovative and interactive fashion creations, inspiring others to explore the intersection of technology and design.

ELEGOO With Her: Empowering the Next Generation of Women Creators

The “ELEGOO With Her” program is a remarkable initiative aimed at equipping more women and girls with 3D printing skills. And the debut of the Scale Dress marks the official launch of the program, followed by a roundtable featuring prominent female designers at Formnext 2024 in Frankfurt, the largest 3D Printing Fair in Europe. This will kick off the initiative that aims not just to revolutionize the 3D printing industry but also fashion tech.

From November 19, 2024, to February 5, 2025, ELEGOO will recruit 30 women and girls for its empowerment program, providing them with 3D printers, software support, and mentorship. Participants will benefit from two months of online courses and workshops, culminating in a showcase of their work in April. This program is a testament to ELEGOO’s commitment to fostering diversity and innovation in the tech industry, empowering women to become leaders in 3D printing.

ELEGOO Neptune 4 Series: Unleashing Creativity in Fashion Design

The Scale Dress, designed for the FashionTech field, utilizes 3D-printed mechanical parts created with the ELEGOO Neptune 4 series 3D printers. The Neptune 4 series’ intelligent printing capabilities make it an ideal tool for blending technology and fashion. By enabling intricate designs and seamless integration of mechanical parts, this printer is a catalyst for innovation in FashionTech, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the industry.

This fusion of 3D printing technology and fashion is opening up new horizons for creativity and innovation. With pioneers like ELEGOO leading the way, the potential for groundbreaking designs and empowering diverse creators is limitless. As 3D printing continues to evolve, its impact on fashion and beyond will undoubtedly shape the future of design.

This Compact E Ink Phone Promises to Simplify Your Digital Life

Posted on by

This year’s been exhausting, hasn’t it?! Especially the last few weeks have been emotionally and mentally draining, and it isn’t just the news, but more specifically, it’s the information overload we’ve been subjected to. Even for a device small enough to fit in our pockets, the smartphone is capable of creating a lot of ‘noise’ in the form of news, texts, calls, notifications, ads, and a lot of data clutter that can overwhelm our brains. This data clutter and relentless bombardment of information is what led to the creation of the Mudita Kompakt, a phone that prioritizes mindful living over doomscrolling.

Created by the minds behind CD Projekt (think The Witcher, Cyberpunk 2077), Mudita Kompakt reflects co-founder Michał Kiciński’s personal journey toward a more balanced life. After years in the gaming industry, where endless connection was the norm, he sought a solution to keep people both connected and grounded. That drive led to Mudita’s mission to design devices that encourage simplicity, privacy, and a conscious digital experience.

Designer: Mudita

Click Here to Buy Now: $316 $465 (32% off). Hurry, only 2/900 left! Raised over $336,000.

The Mudita Kompakt keeps things refreshingly simple. Its 4.3-inch E Ink display is easy on the eyes and demands very little power. That’s right—this phone’s battery can last up to six days, which, in today’s daily-charging world, feels almost revolutionary. Inside, it packs a quad-core MediaTek processor, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of storage (expandable via memory card). Sure, these aren’t flagship specs, but that’s really not the point. It’s all about cutting the clutter and retaining only the things that ‘spark joy’ here. Mudita keeps it lean, pre-loading only the most basic apps like phone, SMS, a calculator, and a voice recorder—none of those attention-demanding apps or bloatware that love to ping you at all hours.

For a phone, the Mudita Kompakt offers dual-SIM capabilities, with 4G LTE compatibility. You can make and receive calls on either SIM and even make/receive VoLTE or Wi-Fi calls, offering connectivity without much of a compromise. Given its entire premise is to stay disconnected from the clutter of the internet, it clearly doesn’t come with 5G, but that’s more of a feature than a bug, truth be told. There’s even support for eSIMs, which is perfect for carriers that don’t traditionally offer SIM cards.

For a phone that strives to be different from the status quo, it still makes a conscious effort to retain features that are cutting-edge… only if they matter to Mudita’s overarching ethos. You may not have a flashy screen and 5G connectivity, but the Kompakt DOES come with a fingerprint sensor to unlock your phone, ensuring biometric-grade security feels reassuring. Surprisingly enough, the phone comes with NFC support too, allowing you to use existing NFC tags around the house, as well as ensuring future compatibility with NFC-ready apps that Mudita may introduce down the road.

What’s remarkable about the Kompakt is its genuine intent to keep users focused on the real world, not the screen. It features an Offline+ mode activated by a physical switch, cutting off cell networks, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, and even disabling the mics and camera for a true offline experience. Think of it as Airplane Mode on steroids, with no features that cause you to linger on your phone for too long. You can read existing messages (you won’t receive new ones), browse through your gallery, or listen to music without any distractions. All these actions have heavy intent behind them, so you’re less likely to end up in a doomscrolling spiral.

Tailored for E Ink®

On the design front, the Mudita Kompakt feels compact, sturdy, and unassuming. It boasts an IP54 rating, meaning it’s resistant to dust and splashes, so it can hold up to daily wear without needing a bulky case. While it does include a modest 8MP camera, this isn’t about capturing every detail of your day—just the moments you truly want to remember. Photos get displayed in greyscale on your E Ink display, adding a rather retro touch to your photography chops. And for the rare occasion you need to recharge, it’s conveniently equipped with wireless charging and a USB-C port, keeping up with modern conveniences.

The Kompakt’s software is built on a custom OS based on the Android Open Source Project. The twist? There’s no Google lurking in the background, collecting data. Mudita promises three years of software updates to keep things smooth, even though this isn’t the kind of phone that’ll be weighed down by big updates. That’s another angle to the Kompakt’s appeal: minimal fuss, minimal distraction, and maximum control over what you interact with.

Of course, going minimalist does have its trade-offs. There’s no Google Play Store here, so you won’t find a wide selection of apps. Mudita provides basic offline maps, a music player, and a few utilities like a meditation timer, voice recorder, an e-reader, and even a chess app that promises you won’t find yourself getting bored. You can, however, sideload other Android apps, although compatibility isn’t guaranteed. For those of us used to feature-packed smartphones, adjusting to a stripped-down OS could be tricky. But that’s the appeal—it’s a purposeful move away from digital noise, offering just enough functionality to meet core needs without temptations. A true digital detox, if you will.

Another perk of the Kompakt is privacy. Since it doesn’t sync with most cloud services, your data stays on your device. Sure, it may feel a bit old-fashioned to manage contacts and files through Mudita’s desktop app, but for privacy-minded users, this setup grants peace of mind. It’s a minor detour to ditch the endless cloud syncs and data-hungry services tracking your every move. The Kompakt is available starting at $316 for early adopters, with a 14-day money-back guarantee just in case the Kompakt feels like too much of a culture shock. Mudita offers Global and North American versions of the Kompakt, so it’s compatible with networks worldwide. Just don’t expect it to work everywhere yet—currently, it’s only shipping to select countries in Europe, the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Oh, and just in case you were wondering… it has a 3.5mm audio jack!
