Lights, Camera, Action!

It's that time of the year: flowers are blooming, students are preparing for exams, moms are getting ready for Mother's Day and people are planning their summer holiday. I, on the other hand, am just looking forward to taking pictures of it all! I recently bought a Canon EOS Rebel T3i, a DSLR camera, and now I'm everyone's favorite person. Ok, not really ME, because I know they are using me for my camera. But, I don't mind. I know that as long as I have a durable camera case, I can go anywhere I need to get that picture.

USA GEAR FlexARMOR X DSLR camera case

USA Gear FlexARMOR X DSLR Camera Case is the "next big thing", as far as DSLR camera cases are concerned. It has been redesigned from its predecessor to be 50% thicker. The molded dense neoprene material - think of a super padded, bubble wrap - is made to protect my DSLR camera for bumps, drops, scratches, and dirt. The FlexARMOR X case hugs the body of the camera so it maintains a snug fit, while still being easily accessible. A sturdy velcro strap closes the case. There is a small zippered pocket for basic accessories, like a memory card and card reader. You can hold the case on your belt loop (with the included carabiner) or around your neck with your camera strap.

Yes, the FlexARMOR X DSLR case is perfect for quick shots, like for my sister's graduation, hiking or traveling. Um, I may have to start thinking about quitting my day job if I continue getting all this attention by just having a DSLR camera! Wait till they see the case --- which is 50% off this week!

Be mean or go green!

With all the talk about "solar this" and "electric that", we all know that Earth Day is today, Monday, April 22nd!  To mark the 43rd annual celebration, Earth Day Network has been collecting images of people who have been directly affected by global warming. According to Earth Day Network, more than one billion people in 192 countries will take part in "depicting the faces of climate change" by showing the images in communities across the world.  Though I won't be taking part in those activities today, I can do my part by being "solar conscious."

What I mean by being "solar conscious" is being mindful of the energy that I am expending. These are simple tasks, which I'm pretty sure you have heard before: turning off the light in a room if you are not in it, turning the faucet off when you are brushing your teeth, using rechargeable batteries, etc. Another great way to assist in your "solar consciousness" is by investing in a solar charger. These external battery packs prove remarkable when you are on the go or even indoors: ReVIVE Solar ReStore BST with one add-on solar panel and ReVIVE Solar ReStore 9200 with two add-on solar panels.

The Solar ReStore BST has a 1500mAh battery and takes only 8 hours to charge in direct sunlight with the 240mAh add-on solar panel. It has a 1.0A USB port that can charge smartphones, MP3 players, GPS devices, handheld gaming consoles and more. There is also an LED flashlight.

If you are looking to double your power, go for the ReStore 9200. It has a battery more than six times bigger than the BST! It has two USB ports - 2.1A and 1.0A - that can charge USB-operated devices, including larger ones such as tablets.  With the two solar add-on panels, it takes only 13 hours to charge its large 9200mAh battery in direct sunlight. It has a built-in emergency flashlight that provides over 150 hours of continuous light for emergency and camping situations. Both are on sale this week for 50% off!

Even though Earth Day is only officially one day, it does not have to be for you! Be conscious - not only of solar energy, but of other aspects that you can "save" in your life. For example, do not waste food or water (ie: do not take more than you can eat at a buffet); if you are close to a location, walk instead of drive; do not use the washing machine to wash one item of clothing; and, only run your dishwasher when it is full.  There are many things that we, as humans, can do to protect the Earth every day of the year. It simply deciding whether to do it or not is the problem.

Who says you can't be small and intelligent at the same time?

The United States is cracking down on people who talk on their cell phones while driving.  According to Hands Free Info, 39 states have banned texting while driving, and, surprisngly, only 10 states have prohibited using a handheld device. Nonetheless, all those states have allowed hands-free calling. It makes sense as we all know that holding a phone while driving can be a bit distracting. Invest in this little guy, GOgroove SMARTmini BT, and you'll be on your way to hands-free calling!

Do not be put off by the size of this device; the SMARTmini BT is a HUGE problem solver! Plug it into you DC outlet and you will be ready to not only talk, but to charge and play music from your cell phone!  This FM transmitter can easily find any clear station for a connection. The Blueooth technology allows the SMARTmini to easily pair to your phone. With the voice-detection microphone, you can ensure that everyone can hear what you are saying. If you are playing music from your phone and a call comes in, the music will automatically fade out. Once finished, the music will continue where it left off! There is even a built-in USB charging port, to keep your cell phone or MP3 player powered when in use.

The National Safety Council (NSC) estimates that 1.6 million crashes occur because of people who text and talk on a handheld device when they are driving. While the SMARTmini BT cannot enable you to text while you are driving, you can still have a conversation with your friends and family and be safe. Invest in one - it is on sale this week for 50% off with the coupon code included in the newsletter!

Give your device a rest with this mount

It's about time for it to start warming up! My friends and I are preparing for a road trip and need to make sure we have the right tools to take with us. Portable speaker. Check. Sunscreen. Check. Digital camera. Check. Cell phone/MP 3/GPS car holder. Now, it's a check!

Thanks to USA Gear Power Cup Mount, there is no need to look down by your gears every few minutes to either skip or rewind a song or look at directions. The Power Cup Mount keeps your device close to you, which makes for a safer driving experience! It has adjustable wings that are designed to fit any smartphone, MP3 player or GPS. 

Let's say you are on a roadtrip and the front seat passenger is the navigator. The Power Cup Mount has a 360-degree rotation and tilt, so your friend can tell you the directions without having to take it off the base. If he or she falls asleep, move it back to your view, so you can know where you are going! It can be used in portrait or landscape layout.

There are four - as in 1, 2, 3, 4 - additional power ports (2 DCs and 2 USBs), so you won't have to worry about this device taking up the only DC outlet in your car. Now everyone can charge their tablet, cell phone, handheld game console or MP3 players at the same time! And for this week, it's 50% off!

Perfect! Now I think we're set to go! The only thing we have to worry about is should we sleep in the scary motel on the right side of the highway or the left. But, hey, as long as we've got our Power Cup Mount, we should be good to go, right????? I'll let you know next week!

60% off! No, this IS NOT an April Fools' Prank

It is April 1st and you know what that means: April Fools' Day! People everywhere are sending texts, making phone calls, and posting messages about the most outlandish things they can think of! Yes, some are creative (and, even believable), while others are downright ridiculous. But trust me: this not a joke. You can save 60% off of this Bluetooth speaker, the Bluesync LX.

The device is versatile - it can pair to your home stereo, smartphone, MP3 player and tablet wirelessly (it has a 32 feet operating range); connect to your wired computer or laptop with the dual AUX-in; and hook to your microphone via the 3.5mm jack for use as a PA system or for an exciting karaoke experience!  Use the remote control to maneuver among the modes.

The sound is phenomenal! The dual satellite speakers comes with 3-inch drivers and 4-inch bass high-excursion subwoofer, which means that you will hear the sound from across the room!  The LCD screen display makes it easy to browse through tracks or adjust the EQ and volume.

Wouldn't it suck that at the end of all this I say "JUST KIDDING! It's an April Fools' joke after all?"  But trust me: that is not the case. Enjoy!
