MEZMODROP: Kinetic Desk toy That Performs Impossible Landing

The Desk Toy That's Basically a Tiny Rocket Launch

Ever watch something fly straight up off your desk and land perfectly back where it started? That's the whole trick with MEZMODROP. A little aluminum ring gets pulled and launched into the air, and thanks to some seriously tight machining it just finds its way home.

The fun part is you actually get better at it. Short, easy pulls land almost every single time. Pull it higher though and suddenly you’re watching to see if this flight ends in a smooth catch or a bounce off the desk.

That's where the silicone ring earns its keep, quieting the misses and keeping your desk from taking any damage. It comes in five colorways pulled straight from real rocket paint jobs. 

Once you land it clean a few times in a row, you'll be hooked. Forget fidget toys. MEZMODROP might be the most fun you’ve had at your desk in years.

SonicMax Slice 10:
Next-Gen Wireless Ultrasonic Cutter

Slice Through Stuff Without Breaking a Sweat

Slice 10 uses 40,000 high-frequency vibrations per second instead of brute force to glide through material. So no more leaning your whole body weight into a cut just to get a clean line. Think less muscle, more precision.

When resistance changes, the system adjusts output power and vibration frequency to help keep the cut smooth and stable. Excess heat does not transfer into the material either. So no more messy edges on plastics or 3D prints.

It runs up to four hours on a charge and eliminates the annoying heat shutdowns that cause you to wait around for a cool off mid-project. And when the battery does finally tap out, you just swap in a new 5000mAh pack instead of babysitting a charger.

Cutting tools aren’t something that you typically get excited about, but Slice 10 sure does make it fun. It's the kind of gear that quietly makes a task easier without asking for applause.

Smokpub Smokery:
The World’s First Smoking Dehydrator

This Smoke Show Wants To Smoke Everything

If you’ve used a dehydrator, it may have the problem that many dehydrators have. It makes food taste like sad, dry cardboard. It gets the job done, sure, but there's zero personality in the final product. 

The Smokery fixes that by building actual wood smoke into a dehydrator, so your jerky comes out tasting like it spent a weekend at a barbecue instead of a science lab.

Six trays means you're not choosing between apple slices and beef strips, you can run both at once and let the machine sort out the temperature and timing. 

That’s thanks to precision dehydration paired with actual smoke instead of some liquid smoke flavor packet. Herbs, fruit, meat, it all fits, and it can do its thing on your countertop instead of your backyard.

If you've been eyeing a traditional smoker but don't have the space for it, Smokepub Smokery can give you that smokehouse flavor without smoking up your house.

X3 | The World’s First Solution
to Turn Your PC into a NAS

The Cloud Was Inside Your Computer All Along

X3 is a tiny dongle that plugs into your PC and quietly turns all that unused storage into your own private cloud. Your files stay yours and your computer steps up its usefulness.

You can wake your PC up remotely from your phone, so it doesn't even need to stay on all day burning electricity. Once it's up, you get full remote desktop access, a Docker setup for running your own little apps, and an AI photo sorter that quietly organizes your camera roll in the background. 

And no, there's no subscription hiding in the fine print. You back it up once, connect the dongle, and you're basically running your own mini cloud service for free forever. It’s compatible with Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and even smart TVs, keeping your files accessible across all your devices.

X3 is a great way to revitalize an old computer that’s just sitting around collecting dust. Or use it with any PC to make it even more useful.

LunchOn: The Smart Portable
LunchBox That Heats & Cools

This Hot Take Is Also Very Cool

Cold sandwiches for lunch are basically a rite of passage, right? No more! Thanks to LunchOn, a lunchbox that can go from fridge cold to stovetop hot without you lifting a finger.

Under the hood there's Peltier tech doing the actual heating and cooling, and you run the whole thing from an app on your phone. The box splits into three tiers and it comes with a 25,000mAh power bank that pops off (literally) and can even be used to charge your phone thanks to its 100W USB-C connection.

No microwave, no fridge, no problem. LunchOn keeps your food at whatever temperature it's supposed to be, hot or cold, wherever you happen to be eating it. Finally, leftovers that actually taste like leftovers should.

THERMA: One Smart Heating & Cooling Coaster for Every Space

Hot Coffee or Iced Tea, Same Smart Coaster

You know that moment when you get pulled into a meeting and come back to a coffee that's basically room temperature soup. Disgusting. THERMA can make that a thing of the past. Set your cup down, let the AI figure out what's going on, and it handles the heating or cooling without you touching a single button.

What's kind of wild is that it doesn't care what you're drinking. Coffee in the morning, iced tea for lunch, a mid-afternoon soda, or even that white wine after work. This thing just adjusts for it all. It's less a coaster and more a tiny climate system for whatever drink is sitting on your desk.

One device, every drink, every space, no more lukewarm regrets. Home office, actual office, kitchen counter, doesn't matter. THERMA just sits there quietly doing its job, making your liquid refreshment actually refreshing.
