Neue Gadgets: Walkie-Talkie aus der Zukunft

November 15th - via: spiegel.de
Das Ausgangsproblem dürfte vielen bekannt sein: Manche Männer setzen sich beim Urinieren nur ungern hin. Dummerweise verursacht die Tätigkeit im Stehen unschöne Spritzer auf dem Klositz. Erst recht, wenn man nachts ins Bad muss und keine Lust hat, das Licht anzuschalten. Männer dazu zu erziehen, dass sie sich grundsätzlich auch beim Pinkeln hinsetzen sollen, ist allerdings ein mühsamer und oft erfolgloser Prozess. Also muss ein Kompromiss gefunden werden. (Read More)

GloBro: A wee lamp to make men put the toilet seat down

November 11th - via: techly.com.au
The position of the toilet seat is one of the oldest war zones in the battle of the sexes. Women can’t work out why a man won’t just rest the lid down, and blokes don’t understand what all the fuss is about. An Aussie company has stepped up to mediate this age-old issue, using a little psychology, some science, and… a wee lamp. (Read More)

Former stand-up Rich Brophy has turned inventor… and come up with a device he claims will cure the problem of men leaving the toilet seat up once and for all. He’s seeking nearly £20,000 on Kickstarter to get his GoBlo to market – a small light that sits under the seat, saving men the hassle of having to turn the light on to pee, and also encouraging them to return the seat to plunge the room back into darkness. (Read More)

GloBro Toilet Light

October 30th - via: gadgetify.com
Using the toilet does not have to be difficult. Solutions such as the GloBro can help guys and gals use their toilet more conveniently. It is a lighting device that sits below the toilet seat and turns on when the seat is raised. The only way to turn it off is to put the seat back down. Considering that most of us prefer not having to turn on the light in the middle of the night to pee and ladies hate it when their toilet seat is left up, the GloBro could prove very useful for many folks. (Read More)
