Budsy might look like a glorified Nalgene bottle, but it’s actually a water pipe. A small ceramic bowl inside the lid holds product, and the under-the-radar look of the BPA-free Tritan bottle keeps things subtle.…

Why Using a Shed Kit is More Efficient Than Building a DIY Shed from Scratch

If you’ve got a back or side yard, then it’s good to get a shed that fits the area. A shed offers a great extra storage space that is particularly useful for items that don’t need to be indoors.

A shed can be used for the following purposes:

  • Storage for bikes and garden toys
  • Tool and mower storage
  • Indoor greenhouse
  • Office space
  • Home gym
  • Recreation space (playroom / man cave)

Maybe you have the space for a small locker to store firewood and gardening tools in? Or perhaps you have a huge yard so you can make an extra room out of it? Either way, you’ll appreciate a shed in the long term. They protect against weather and theft, so you have a safe outhouse for your belongings.

Build or Buy Your New Shed?

Once you’ve decided to add a shed to your garden, then you decide whether to build or buy it. Realistically, unless you’ve built many things before, buying a shed kit is the easiest option.

Many people who set out to build their own shed run into a variety of problems. There’s so much choice in terms of material, and the tools required can be expensive.

It’s difficult to do by yourself, so you usually end up needing help. Then if you don’t build it properly, you may find it’s vulnerable to the elements.

There are also local regulations to consider. Overall, there’s much more to think about than simply putting up some panels in your backyard.

The following reasons are why buying a shed kit is the better option:

  • Saves time

A shed project can take months, and most people don’t realise this when they start out. A shed kit can be ordered, delivered and assembled in less time than you’ve even bought your materials for a completely DIY project.

  • Saves money

When you factor in buying the correct materials and your time, a shed kit is a financial winner. Not all shed kits are equal, but there are plenty of affordable options on the market.

  • More durable

Shed kits are built with robust materials that have been tested for strength in different weather conditions. Buying a shed kit means you have a permanent structure that will last.

  • All materials included

You don’t have to make a list or go around trying to find everything required. You also don’t have to invest in expensive tools.

  • Easy assembly

Shed kits are a dream to assemble. No difficult instructions, or hard-to-follow plans. You get step-by-step instructions and don’t need any extra help.

  • Customisable

You can choose from a variety of sizes and colors, so that no two are the same.

  • Versatility

There are plenty of options available with modern shed kits. You can add extra panels and increase the size if you find you need a bigger structure later.

When buying a shed kit from a reputable manufacturer, you can guarantee that it has been tested for strong winds. Unfortunately, with a self-built one, you only find out if it can weather a storm when one happens. It hurts to see $$$ down the drain if the roof is blown off!

Tailor Your Shed to Your Style

When ordering your shed kit, there are options available. You can choose from different materials:

  • Wood
  • Vinyl
  • Metal

In many ways, metal is the best choice for a shed. It is easier to insulate, which will protect any tools or furniture you keep inside. Metal is also more durable, and many people are surprised by how good modern shed kits look.

You also have the choice of decorative elements with certain shed kits. These really help express your style. Decorative elements include:

  • Windows
  • Shutters
  • Porch
  • Single or double doors

All the prefabricated options are easily constructed, even if you have no building experience.

Then you can paint it in a shade of your choice. Some like to choose a color to blend in with their home, others go for a bolder statement.

Some tried-and-tested colors are:

  • Sage green
  • Black and white
  • Red
  • Gray
  • Navy blue

Of course, you can paint it bright green if that’s your desire!

Make Your Life Easy with a Shed Kit

With the pace of life and the eventual cost, it makes sense to choose a shed kit for your backyard. You have more choice than you realise, and the quick assembly will make the job easy. What’s more, it will stand the test of time, making you glad you made that choice for years to come.

Organize your cycling gear with these storage solutions from Riders Gonna Ride

So, you finally gave in to the pressure from your peers and can now call yourself a cyclist. Don’t sweat it, because everything will gradually fall into place. Over time, you’ll build up more stamina and will match or even outpace some of your buddies. Perhaps, another point to consider is storage for your cycling gear and apparel. Riders Gonna Ride has you covered with its varied selection of products.

Before anything else, please note that there is no issue with your cycling equipment being kept inside your garage, house, or apartment. Still, some folks might want to keep their stuff organized. Not only does it look neat, but it’s also easier to grab all the necessary items in one go.

Let’s start with what Rider Gonna Ride has available for your pedal-powered steed. Now, unless you are using one of those detachable kickstands, simply leaning your bike against a wall is not really cool. Instead, why not grab the portable and lightweight Bike Stand Mobile.

It is made from Compact Density Fiberboards (CDF), which is resistant to moisture and fire. The manufacturer says it is virtually indestructible and can even support heavier e-bikes. Up next are the Bike Hanger and Bike Wall Suspension Cabinet.

The former is a simple wall-mounted device to keep your ride upright, while the latter boasts shelves for other items. Finally, the retailer is offering an all-in-one storage platform called the Bike Box. These CDF cabinets have two variants to choose from.

The first has fixed storage spaces, while the rest are modular with the help of wooden pegs and shelving. Cyclists who prefer a minimalist approach to bike storage will love these designs from Riders Gonna Ride.

Enjoy Margaritas On The Go With The BruMate BackTap

You can think of the BruMate BackTap as a cooler or a beer keg made for the outdoor enthusiast. Aside from your favorite spirits, it can hold practically any beverage and keep it fresh-tasting for hours.

That’s because of its stainless steel, insulated interior that ensures drinks stay ice-cold and fresh without harboring bacteria. The interior is even removable and washable so you can keep it clean. Meanwhile, its rotomolded plastic exterior guarantees durability so it can withstand any adventure.

The BruMate BackTap is named as such because it has a tap to make it convenient to get your drinks on the go. You don’t have to keep on opening and closing the lid when the need for refreshment knocks. You can easily dispense on the go and can rest assured that drinks do not spill no matter your movements. That’s because it employs a leak-proof seat-lid so you don’t waste even a single drop.

And whether you’re off to the beach, camping, hiking, to a backyard or beach party, this is one camping gear you’d want to have. It gives you three ways of carrying: handle and shoulder and backstrap straps for hands-free carry. It’s not even that bulky at 14 3/4 inches in height with a measurement of 13 1/2 inches wide (handle side) and 13 inches wide from latch to back.

In perspective, the BruMate BackTap can hold 14 claws or any slim cans and 12 cans of beer or soda. It can store five bottles of wine or 15 when poured directly inside. You can even pack three gallons of margaritas on the go.

The BLUETTI EB70 Power Station from MAXOAK Is Small But Powerful

MAXOAK is back with another amazing product that’s guaranteed to make life easy for you during power outages. Not only is it portable and lightweight making it travel-friendly, but it is also off-grid ready so you can feel at home whenever on your outdoor adventures.  Introducing the BLUETTI EB70, a small but powerful power station that can rival any of its kind in the market.

Looks can be deceiving, as the adage goes, and it definitely describes the BLUETTI EB70. Don’t let its appearance fool you. It may be compact but it packs a powerful 700Wh capacity with multiple charging ports you could ever ask for.

Just like other power generators from MAXOAK, including the BLUETTI EP500 and AC200, to name a few, this one runs on a Pure Sine Wave inverter and on a durable and long-lasting LiFePO4 battery that gives you over 2500 charge cycles. It comes built with essential features for home and outdoor use. So without further ado, let’s get to the basics of what makes this power station awe-mazing.

Multiple Powerful Charging Capacity

The BLUETTI EB70 gives you 716Wh capacity with four continuous 100-120V (700W max) AC ports to meet your needed daily power needs. This is more than enough to charge small and medium-sized tech appliances and other gadgets. It can power smartphones, laptops, an air conditioner, and more.

Out of this power station, you also get two 5V USB-A ports and two fast-charging 100W USB-C PD3.0 ports. On-the-road adventures are also made possible with a 12V car charger. What makes it even convenient is its compatibility with Qi-enabled devices, as such it has one wireless charging pad neatly built on the top.

With the BLUETTI EB70, you can enjoy 12 charge cycles for laptops, 60 times for smartphones, enjoy TV entertainment for six hours, and run a slow cooker for three hours. It can power a car refrigerator for 10 hours and a lightbulb for 30 hours. This power station is also useful especially for those who sleep with a CPAP machine with an amazing 15-hour charge cycle.

Recharge Anytime and Anywhere

When the need arises, you can always recharge the BLUETTI EB70 using the power of the sun. Its exclusive built-in MPPT controller lets you recharge at 200W solar power in a matter of 4.5 hours. You can also use the 12V car charger or when pressed for time, plug to the wall to get you from 0 to 80% in just 2.9 hours.

Safe and Durable

The BLUETTI EB70 not only operates silently and is non-toxic. It also boasts a great battery management system and that’s because it uses LiFePO4 battery cell. It regulates temperature to prevent overheating and prevents short-circuit, overheating, overcharge (both for battery and output), overvoltage, overcurrent, and more.

Great Indoor and Outdoor Power Back Up

Being that it supports solar charging and non-toxic, the BLUETTI EB70 then makes a great companion for off-grid travels. It even comes with its own LED lantern equipped with SOS functions. Best of all, it is lightweight despite its power capacity. It clocks in only 9.7 kilograms and portable with a foldable handle and compact size of 12.6 x 8.5 x 8.7 inches. This is truly one power station that you don’t want to miss out on.

Urwerk is making only 25 units of the limited-edition UR-100V Blue Planet watch

The UR-100 is the quintessential poster boy of Urwerk’s remarkable satellite complication. Thus, the Swiss luxury watchmaker regularly releases special versions to keep fans of the model happy. We’ve featured a few which most of us felt stood out from the rest in the roster. Now, we’re happy to include the UR-100V Blue Planet on our growing list of favorite wristwatches.

All the usual characteristics that tell us this is based on the UR-100 are there. Still, the new tone gives it a muted silhouette which somehow gives off a vibe similar to the all-black colorway we love. In addition to telling time in spectacular fashion, the UR-100V Blue Planet lives up to its name.

It does so by showing the distance covered by the planet’s rotation and the distance it traveled as well. If this is your first timepiece with wandering hours, let us explain how it works. You can figure out the time via the number displayed on the rotating carousel and where the minute indicator is pointing at.

The UR-100V Blue Planet is presented in a 41 mm blue PVD steel case with the crown in the same shade and material. The satellite hour system lies beneath a sapphire crystal dome. With Super-LumiNova coatings on key components, low-light visibility won’t be a problem at all.

Urwerk is using the UR12.02 self-winding mechanical movement with a 48-hour power reserve. Likewise, the rotor of its Windfänger Planetary Turbine Automatic System is viewable via the exhibition titanium caseback.

In line with its theme, the majority of its parts are in the shade of dark blue. Even the technical canvas strap and its buckle are in the same hue. Urwerk will be making 25 pieces of the UR-100V Blue Planet watch.

Graphene technology on the inov-8 TrailFly Ultra G300 Max enhances trail runs

As more people discover the fun and challenges with trail running, most are not even aware that their existing footwear could possibly lead to injuries. Unlike pavement or tracks, off-road surfaces are often uneven. Also, it could be full of varying types of hazards that would easily damage regular sneakers. Thus inov-8 is introducing us to the TrailFly Ultra G300 Max which is using cutting-edge materials for next-generation performance.

For trail running shoes, grip and durability are crucial features users should consider. For the TrailFly Ultra G300 Max, inov-8 is turning to the unique properties of graphene. The company adds the composite to the midsole foam, which in turn promises a 25% improvement in energy return. Moreover, they’re calling it G-Fly This enhanced cushioning effect also helps users run faster and longer.

Another noteworthy feature is the ADAPTER-FLEX groove. This allows the TrailFly Ultra G300 Max to flex and adjust according to the texture and shape of the terrain underfoot. Then there’s the supportive mesh upper which wraps around your feet comfortably.

Finally, we have the outsole, which might not look like much at first, but actually packs innovative technology. Remember when we pointed out the use of graphene for the mid-sole?  Well, inov-8 is apparently also using it for improving traction on the dynamic terrain of the trail.

For now, the TrailFly Ultra G300 Max is only available in a single colorway. We like that inov-8 went for a bright neon green for the upper with a mix of black on the graphics, tongue, laces, and lining. Both the outsole and midsole are in black with the “G” emblem in green and a gradient shift to green toward the front.

Camp out using your truck bed with the GentleTent GT Pickup inflatable tent

For camping or overlanding, most pickup truck owners invest in a camper or maybe even a trailer. After all, why sacrifice the creature comforts of home when you have options right? On the other hand, purists want nothing but to rough it out as their form of leisure which is why the aforementioned stuff is strictly out of the question. Then, perhaps the GentleTent GT Pickup might be more up your alley.

No fancy installation needed here to supply your temporary shelter with power or whatnot. Instead, this is a pure off-grid type of affair that boasts top-notch quality and features to make your outdoor excursions a treat. GentleTent prefers to call the GT Pickup the “Taco Tent,” which seems fair given the shape it resembles once fully deployed.

This vehicle-based camping gear using the space of your double-cab pickup truck’s bed as well as the roof. Although from what we can gather from the images provided by GentleTent, your vehicle might need to have a rack. Sadly, a single cab version is not available, given the area it needs to support a full-size mattress.

GentleTent’s product page notes that the GT Pickup is compatible with popular platforms such as Colorados, Tacomas, Rangers, and Frontiers. It can fold down into a highly portable 7 inches high and weighs only 62 pounds. Its inflatable nature makes it easy to transport and store.

After setting it up, there should be approximately a 5-foot-long living area with a 7-foot height clearance. Multiple mosquito windows keep the bad biting bugs out and provide excellent ventilation. The GT Pickup tent uses a waterproof and breathable material to maintain a refreshing climate within.

GAMMA: The Graphene Jacket You Can Wear in Any Climate

In a matter of days, a few scientists and engineers from Hong Kong have exploded across the internet for their insanely successful Kickstarter project, GAMMA.

Their company, Wear Graphene, invented GAMMA, the first-ever all-climate jacket infused with supreme graphene. Graphene is a Nobel-Prize-winning nanoparticle known for being the hardest, thinnest, and most flexible material on Earth.

In just one week on Kickstarter, GAMMA has raked in over 300k from backers around the globe, making it the breakout success of the year on the platform.

What makes GAMMA so special?

There are three things that make this jacket stand out from any other: the power of supreme graphene, internal heating elements, and a sharp look.

We’ll break down what this jacket can do below. Or, you can go to the GAMMA Kickstarter campaign now to see the jacket in action and order yours over 40% off.

Graphene: The Future of Clothing (And a Lot More)

Graphene is a 21st-century material. It wasn’t discovered until 2004. Since then, those in the know have expected it to revolutionize most industries (once we figure out how to use it).

The strongest, thinnest, and most flexible material known to man, graphene has the power to give super abilities to all of our stuff, including:

  • Superhero strength
  • Resistance-free conductivity
  • Antimicrobial cleanliness
  • Hypoallergenic protection
  • Insect repellant
  • Waterproof and windproof climate control
  • UV-proof skin protection
  • Thermoregulating temperature control

And it brings ALL of this to GAMMA jacket. Wear Graphene is one of the first labs/brands to successfully infuse graphene into textiles. It has infused all of the fibers in GAMMA with Graphene, making it the first all-climate activewear.

GAMMA is practically indestructible. Graphene makes it immune to tears, rips, and fraying. It’s even puncture-proof and cannot be damaged by sharp knives.

This makes it perfect for taking on the toughest hikes and climbs. It will also protect you from scrapes and cuts despite its crazy light weight (it weighs about as much as a hoodie).

Because it’s waterproof, windproof, and UV-proof, GAMMA will keep you cool and protected from the elements no matter how harsh the weather. Unlike most windbreakers, GAMMA’s graphene won’t let any chill get through the barrier.

GAMMA’s all-climate comfort is rounded out by graphene’s ability to transfer heat evenly across its entire lattice structure. GAMMA’s high-performance insulation will keep you warmer from your torso to your fingertips. And in warm weather, it will expel excess heat to keep you cool. Graphene reacts to your body like a second skin for unparalleled insulation without puffiness or sweaty discomfort.

Graphene is moisture-wicking, so it will keep your skin dry even if you use it to jog or engage in intense activity. And because it’s also antimicrobial, it will never develop odors from sweat or bacteria. You can wear it for your morning run, come back home for a shower, and then wear the same jacket to work.

Graphene is so versatile that it makes GAMMA the only jacket you’ll need all year round, no matter where you live or travel. Whether you want to run to the store for some butter or trek to the peak of a mountain, GAMMA will keep you safe, insulated, and comfortable.

Internal Heating for Extreme Cold

Graphene is an incredible insulator. But, without a heat source, it can’t keep you warm. This is where the few other graphene clothes fall short. When the temperature gets cold enough, your body heat just isn’t enough.

That’s why GAMMA comes with built-in heating elements that generate extra heat when you need it. To use them, just put a power bank in one of the jacket pockets. Then, you can select the temperature of your jacket at the push of a button.

GAMMA’s three heating elements can heat up to 50˚C/120˚F in seconds. Then, graphene will get to work dispersing that heat evenly throughout the jacket.

With the heating elements on, GAMMA can keep you toasty even in sub-freezing temperatures. GAMMA can protect you from temperatures as cold as -30˚C/-20˚F, making it an ideal jacket for winter camping, skiing, and living in places that are prone to snowstorms.

And remember, you won’t have to bundle up. GAMMA can do all this despite weighing about one pound.

Style that Fits Any Occasion

One of the reasons that Wear Graphene’s GAMMA has become so popular is that it looks cool as hell. It’s got a sporty soft shell jacket look that makes you seem like you just came from the slopes or the trail. It’s also tapered to slim your waist while bulking you up the chest.

GAMMA isn’t just for sports, either. It’s meant to be the only jacket you need, and it looks great on nearly any occasion. You can use it as a slip-on jacket, a winter coat, a windbreaker, a rain jacket, and more. You can wear it to work and the bar too. Its jet-black color and sharp trim are professional and refined.

Style doesn’t mean much without function. GAMMA comes with 10 pockets, two of which are hidden to protect travel documents or cash when you’re on the go. It comes with straps to secure your hood, waist, and wrists in the case of extreme weather. And, it has built-in fingerless gloves to keep those palms protected and warm. How cool is that?

Add Graphene to Your Wardrobe with GAMMA

Whether you fancy yourself a fashion guru or like to wear the same thing every day, GAMMA is going to work for you.

We can pretty much guarantee that you have ZERO graphene clothing in your closet right now.

That must be rectified. This everlasting super material is just better for you. And, GAMMA makes you look better too.

You can wear GAMMA every day for every occasion without having to question yourself in front of the mirror. How easy is that? Or, break it out when it’s time to impress your hiking buddies or your tennis partner.

It lasts forever, so we’re sure you’ll figure out plenty of ways to use it.

The only mistake you could make is to NOT order one while it’s over 40% off. Place your pre-order now on Kickstarter before early-bird perks run out to ensure you’re one of the first to don supreme graphene and look great doing it.

Imezing WOWSTICK: A compact, ergonomic and powerful rechargeable drill

Unless you prefer to do things the traditional way, power tools are one of the best inventions of all times. Depending on your home garage setup, you can choose between pneumatic (compressed air) or electric models. A power drill is one type of tool that should be in every craftsman’s kit. Given that your average electric drill is big and loud, Imezing is crowdfunding its WOWSTICK.

Funny name aside, what looks like a large metal pen roughly about the size of a regular marker is actually a compact drill. Imezing probably wanted to make it appear like one since it does include a cap with a metal clip. For durability, The WOWSTICK boasts a premium matte unibody aluminum shell that houses its components.

It’s obvious this handy tool will not replace your power drill anytime soon, but it is perfect for DIY crafting. People who regularly work on hobbies and even professional tasks will find it surprisingly ergonomic. Since the motor sits closer to the chuck, it gives the 1.62-ounce WOWSTICK a lower center of gravity.

Moreover, the matte finish of its surface not gives its stylish aesthetic, but also provides a better grip. It should likewise improve accuracy while it’s in use. Imezing is CNC machining every component thereby giving it a clean minimal design.

The WOWSTICK includes eight high-carbon steel drill bits: 0.8 mm, 1.0  mm, 1.2mm, 1.4 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.8  mm, 2.0mm, and 2.2 mm. It is powerful enough to tackle many types of materials. Imezing lists wood, clay, resin, plastic, copper sheets, aluminum sheets, and more. Its 280 mAh battery fully charges in 40 minutes via a USB-C port and can last up to 2 hours of continuous duty.
