Spnkix Electric Roller Skates (Vid)
These motorized electric roller skates propel you at up to 8 mph. Simply
strap the skates on over their shoes, held securely in place by dual
fasteners similar to those on ski boots. Each skate has an 80-watt motor
integrated into its rugged fiber-reinforced nylon frame that powers its
smooth-rolling 6"-diameter rubber tires. A handheld wireless
remote control throttles both skates simultaneously up to 8 mph; gentle
stops are achieved by pulling the switch back—engaging the skates'
electronic brakes—or by dragging the heel stopper. Each skate has
a removable lithium-ion battery that provides up to 40 minutes of
continuous power (5-6 mile range) ideal for travel across a school
campus, to a local cafe, or while roaming a neighborhood festival.
Riders up to 180 lbs.
Batteries recharge in five hours using the included AC adapter.
Includes one removable training wheel.
Fits men's shoe sizes 6-14, women's 7-15 1/2.
For ages 16 and up.
10 1/2" H x 9 1/2" W x 9" D. (16 lbs.)
Creative Bottle Openers Combo 2
There are several distinct designs of such bottle openers. Wall mounted openers are typically found behind bars in pubs, whilst hand-tool bottle openers tend to be found and used in domestic environments. Whereas the functional elements of bottle openers (a tooth or lip to catch the underside of the cap, a fulcrum across which to exert the force that will remove the cap, and usually a lever for mechanical advantage) tend to be consistent (sometimes the lever is the bottle itself), their aesthetic design is subject to very great variety, and a great many decorative types are available.
In recent years the bottle opener has taken many forms to appeal to young professionals. A few examples of the designer bottle opener include a surfboard shaped bottle opener, baseball cap with bottle opener in the visor, the inclusion of a bottle opener in the sole of a flip flop,in the form of a ring that can be worn, as part of a belt buckle, or in the different shapes for sports, a guitar, cowboy boot or car key. Recent improvements come with the invent of High Definition graphics with epoxy dome on chrome plated versions of the bottle opener. Novelty bottle openers became a popular promotional product for many beer brands with the advent of the surfboard bottle opener by Jim Wysopal from Openers Plus in California 1990.

It has been added to the design a generator that transforms the movement into power. The iRock it's equipped with an iPad stand and a set of build in speakers in the back rest. The iRock is a product that explores how furniture can interact with technology and actually support the power for this technology. Movement is energy and to collect as much of this energy as possible is one of the future challenges. The laws of physics dictates how movement and friction constantly creates a vast amount of energy that in most cases are lost. iRock is an attempt to collect some of this energy and put it to real use.
