Driver alert... anti-sleeping device


The Driver Alert sleep warning device helps prevent fatigue related automobile accidents. If you start to nod off while you are driving and your head falls forward, the Driver Alert will sound an alert to wake you up before disaster strikes.

This lightweight device fits behind your ear comfortably, even if you wear glasses. Button cell battery included.

HOUSEHOLD FLOOD ALARM


This simple device could save you thousands in home repairs caused by water damage. When the water reaches the level of the sensor the flood alarm will sound to alert you before the water overflows. You can now eliminate flooded basements, garages, laundry rooms, bathrooms, pools, sinks, toilets, and hot-water heaters.

Garmin Mobile 20 handy for smart phones


In this day and age, buying a standalone GPS device isn't the only way to get navigation help.

If you have a cell phone or smart phone, you can add software or GPS accessories to turn your mobile into a handheld navigation device. One such solution is the Garmin Mobile 20.

Unlike some of the other car kits we've seen, such as the Palm GPS Navigator Car Kit, the Mobile 20 works with a number of Palm and Windows Mobile devices (Garmin also offers a separate accessory for BlackBerrys) and offers turn-by-turn text- and voice-guided directions and acts as a hands-free speaker system.

The setup and hands-free integration isn't quite as sophisticated as the Palm accessory, but it delivers accurate directions as well as some nice extras, such as traffic alerts and weather updates. The Garmin Mobile 20 is available now, but it's on the pricey side at $299.99.
