Charge your Mobile with a Wind up Torch

Wind Up Torch
If you enjoy camping and have a wind up torch then you might be able to make some modifications that allow it to charge your mobile phone. The wind up torch (or flashlight) in the video after the jump can generate around 4V of power when you crank the handle. Mixing this together with a Nokia car charger can allow you to generate enough power to charge your phone, PDA and other electronic devices. Its quite a good idea for those who travel and want the mixture of a torch and charger in one. As it is a custom device there are no prices for this. If you do happen to hack away at your torch then just make sure you use the correct testing equipment so that you do not damage the torch or electronic device.

On each remote you put the other side of the Velcro and when you need to change channel you just reach up to your head rather then hunt around the floor, cushions and other random places that remote controls get lost.

RC Tarantula
If you want a good way to freak out a friend and see how tough they really are then get your self one of these RC tarantulas (particularly the dark one). Tarantulas have 8 legs and according to one source, they have 8 eyes. I wont argue with the person who said that as I dont want to confirm it my self. Anyway, the RC tarantula is available from various places across the US and UK for around 20 pounds in the UK.
