PowerWall by Tesla

19th August 2016/in Gadgets / Tech, Technology /by billywright

Here at How To Kill An Hour we came across this really cool new product from Tesla called the Powerwall What the Powerwall basically is, is a massive battery for your home. It’s automated and compact so it’s not an eye sore and is super easy to install. The Powerwall is really cool in that it charges using the electricity that is generated from solar panels or when utility rates are low and powers your home in the evening instead of the grid. It’s so powerful you can even go off the grid entirely! Saving yourself a few bucks in the process, all from the power of the SUN! It also acts as a back-up so if there is a power-cut you will know nothing about it because the Powerwall kicks in and allows you to keep on playing that COD marathon!

Here at How To Kill An Hour we LOVE the GameVice gaming controller for iPhone 6! Just ask Funk Butcher! Some say he is still in the chair from 2 weeks ago and is STILL playing Final Fantasy 7! Gamevice is basically like your PS4 or Xbox One controller but for your iPhone or Idevice (Ipad Pro version coming soon!)

Playable DJ Pizza Boxes!

18th August 2016/in Gadgets, Gadgets / Tech /by billywright

Pizza Hut is going to be your new food companion to the weekly pre-drinks all around the UK. Why I hear you ask? Well the fast food restaurant is launching a world first “The playable DJ Pizza Box” Yes you read that right, a playable DJ Pizza Box. PLAYABLE!! Pizza Hut have partnered with Novalia an electronics company that specialises in adding electronics to the surfaces that we touch on a day to day bases. On the pizza boxes to help you rave before the rave are images of turntables printed in conductive ink – it includes everything any budding DJ could ask for such as Mixer, Cross Fader, Two Decks and so much more (we’ll leave the rest for you to find out yourselves because we know you want to!) The box connects to your phone or laptop via bluetooth and even works with professional software like Serato!

They are very limited, so much so that only 5 will be given to 5 of their 350 restaurants that are spread across the UK. To find out where they are going to be available keep an eye on Pizza Hut’s UK Twitter account.

See below Rinse FM’s very own DJ Vectra giving it a spin:

The Lamzac Fatboy! #ShareTheAir

Ever been to the park, a festival or even the beach with no where to sit and you end up getting grass stains on your brand new trousers or sand everywhere (and we mean everywhere!) Even a towel doesn’t really save you from these problems, a towel isn’t even comfortable either!

Well, we can change your outdoor life with a brand new product that hails from the Netherlands. Recently we have been using the Lamzac Fatboy, an inflatable seat or sofa that can hold 2-3 people. It doesn’t require you to stand there all day long inflating it with a foot pump or blowing into a small tube for hours on end. Filled in seconds using a technique you can start to enjoy comfort anywhere you want! It doesn’t take forever to deflate either, just undo the clip, unroll the fabric and release! Done. Then roll it up and place it in the handy bag for next time. Don’t worry its strong and hardwearing too so no need to be concerned about pops and falling and hurting your derrière!
