As many of you know, I have developed an affinity for unique handcrafted technology, and usually I look towards Etsy for my inspiration. However, MAC, LYNX & Nior from the artist Phu are probably the coolest, albeit expensive, iPhone 5 docking stations I have stumbled across in a very long time. ...
Syndee: The 4-In-1 Charging Station For Those Who Love Power
Recently I took a serious sabbatical from writing to concentrate on a number of other projects, but since the holiday season is firmly upon us, I thought I would step back into the writing thing swinging.

Trekkies Rejoice: The Dark Chocolate Star Trek Voyager Cake
For those of you who don't already know, Voyager is one of my favorite Star Trek series. I faithfully watched nearly every episode as it aired. If it wasn't for Battlestar Galactica, it might possibly be my favorite series. In either case it lands squarely in my top three. As a series, it holds the ...
How To Hack The Gigaware 12-494 Universal FM Transmitter
Several years ago, I picked up this device to transmit audio from various devices to my stereo equipment via an FM signal. While this worked well enough, interference aside, one thing that always annoyed me with this device was the rather bulky limitation of its auto style cigarette lighter power ad ...
A Spectre Of Utopia: A Marvel Of Modern Engineering
No, that is not some alien space craft. Unfortunately, we have not made contact with a benevolently advanced alien race, well, not any that our governments will admit anyway. Of course when I stumbled upon this, I clearly heard the line, "No. Mr. Bond, I expect you to DIE!" Sadly that quote is from ...

WiRC Comes To Your Smartphone
You are probably asking yourself, 'What the hell is WiRC?" Well, it is an amalgamation of a radio controller transceiver and a WiFI webserver.

USB Wall Outlet: No More Searching For The Power Adapter
Have you ever needed to charge your cell phone only to realize that you left the USB power adapter at home on your desk? How many times can you stop by the same Apple store to borrow one of their cradles conveniently hot glued to the display table? Seriously, you've never jack powered while pretendi ...
The Ultimate Scale That Out Scales All Other Scales
Here on Bit Rebels we've reviewed scales (mostly mean ones) before, but honestly, I don't think we've ever seen anything quite like this. Truthfully, this is not one of my favorite subjects. I mean who really cares about something that reminds you that you shouldn't have washed down that bacon chedd ...
Manage Your Data With AirDroid
