ReUSaBle Batteries
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Accessories, USB, Misc. Tech,
We want some! We still adore our eneloop batteries that we haven’t had to charge in months, even though we use them almost daily, but we really admire the ingenuity of the ReUSaBle Batteries. When their juice starts to drain, simply plug them into any USB port or 250mA Ni-MH charger. An LED will let you know the status of the charge. A pair of the 2 x AA size batteries (1.2V at 1450mAh) will cost you $19.15, well worth the amount considering that they will eventually save you money and the planet.

Pregnancy Kit Gets USB Treatment
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Accessories, USB, Misc. Tech, Science,
Is there nothing that cannot be adapted for USB? Apparently not, once we found this gadget. The p-Teq USB Pregnancy Test Kit works similarly to others with an absorbent test strip. You then connect the other end to your USB 2.0 port and the gadget does its thing. It also can tell by cycle if this is the time to try for that baby. After you finish the test, remove the device and dispose of the strip. And yes, it comes with 20 strips so it is reusable. Just be careful when testing to remember which end is which. The Test Kit is said to be 99% accurate and is available for $18.00 in the pickle aisle at ThinkGeek.
