iTar: Convert Your iPad Into A Real Guitar & Much More
The gadgets that Apple launches always have a primary use, but fans of the Apple brand have always found ways to push more things into their already feature-packed gadgets. It's not by coincidence that Apple keeps on giving their users the tools to create their own stuff to enhance their products. I ...
Custom Gameboy Zombie Mod Inspired By Captain N
This is definitely one of the cutest little zombie mods I've ever seen! I love my old Gameboy, and I have it in my treasure box for safe keeping along with my childhood teddy bear, my NES and my original Superman comic books. I don't know if I could bring myself to do this to mine, but I sure like l ...
iPhone 4S Upgrade Kit Now Available!
The sad news reached the world today that Apple's co-founder and pioneering innovator Steve Jobs died peacefully surrounded by his family. What this will mean for Apple I don't think anyone will know until things settle a bit, but one thing is for sure, and that is that it will be quite difficult fo ...
Living In A Dumpster: The Insane Container Conversion
I am sure that every single one of you has at some point come home to a messy home thinking you live in a dumpster, right? It happens to all of us. Usually when that happens, we get straight to tidying things up, and after a few minutes, things are as clean as our home will ever get. It's just the d ...
Mean Green Machine: A Freaky Xbox 360 Console Mod
There are game console modders, and then there is Kier. His motto is, "Why keep it standard if you can modify it?" This particular mod looks like the Hulk, and it's just as intimidating to me. What Kier is able to do with a couple of white Xbox 360s is truly mind-blowing. The clear acrylic panel on ...
This Geeky Kickass NES Mod Makes Me Hot & Heavy
Is it weird that I get so excited over a well-done, glossy, geeky NES mod? I hope not. We see a lot of these mods, but rarely are they as nicely done as this. The last time I saw an NES mod that was this cool was the one that was turned into a fabulous to-die-for lunchbox. If you want to see that on ...
A Window That Closes Automatically When Train Approaches
I know it sounds kinda strange, but I've always thought innovative windows and curtains were interesting. When you add a techno-geek flavor to them, it makes it all even better. When I stayed in a suite at the Ritz Carlton in Shanghai, the floor to ceiling drapes opened and closed with a switch on t ...
Epic Mod: PS3 & XBox 360 All In One Box
Playing video games has been a trend since back in the '80s, and it's never really dissipated. It's been there all the time, and it's growing and growing along with the technology which make the games even more realistic. It's a fun ride to watch these games get better and better and more intriguing ...
R2-D2 Bicycle Helmet: Badass Just Got Badder!
When I was a little kid, everything seemed to be different than it is today. Games were in pixelated form, cartoons on TV weren't some annoying chubs running around screaming all the time, sneakers were cheaper, and we didn't have to wear a helmet when biking. In general, the world was a little less ...
12 Crazy Cool Custom Smart Car Designs
I think Smart Cars are so cute. I've never seen one in real life (or at least not that I can remember), but in the pictures they look like little toy cars that wind up. They resemble something that is in between a go-kart and a car. Of course, I'm saying this from an American perspective. It's no wo ...
Gold Plated Atari 2600: Not Owning This Would Be A Sin
It's hard to believe that the world was in a serious economic recession not too long ago. Sure, we can still see the effects of it, and with Greece in such a troubled situation, it's evident that we're not entirely out of danger just yet. However, we can't keep looking back on the troubles of yester ...
Geektastic: Millennium Falcon Bass Guitar That Works
I remember back around the beginning of 2010, there were pictures of a Millennium Falcon bass guitar making the rounds on the Internet. It wasn't a real guitar. It was made to look like a real bass guitar, but you couldn't actually play it. That's cool and all, but true Star Wars geeks know that in ...
Carbeque: The Tricked Out Car Transformed Into A BBQ
We are right smack in the middle of summer, and if there was ever a season for barbequing and spending time with friends outside, it's now. Here in Atlanta, I can walk outside on pretty much any Saturday afternoon and smell a grill close by cooking up burgers and hotdogs. It's just a tradition here ...
Badass Nostalgic Steampunk Rotary Smartphone
Sometimes when people are thinking up ideas, they just don't go all the way to the very limit. They stay safe within their comfort zone, or they keep things in the range where they know people are most likely to be interested. Star Wars is a good example of that, and we've seen a thousand examples o ...
Beautification: The Star Wars Millennium Falcon XBox Mod
I think it's obvious to anyone reading Bit Rebels that we really like geeky cool stuff, especially gadgets that have been customized or modded. It's really nice to know that we aren't just sticking to the same ole boring designs that we sometimes see in the stores when we're hunting down our next ga ...
