If you have a bunch of remote controls, then chances are you've probably lost one...or all of them at one point or another. The Remote Buddy is a remote control holder designed to hold up to four of your remote controls, as well as a refreshing beverage. If you misplace one of your beloved controllers you can buzz it from the base station in order to find it. Of course, one universal remote would probably make more sense...

I've recently started going through all the boxes I have stacked up in my closets. I've found a lot of pretty interesting things, but one common thread is an abundance of mix tapes created in the early 90's. I've started to collect them all in the same box, and was pretty excited to see this contraption this morning: a mix tape lamp. The lamp was a DIY, pretty cool idea is you ask me. Have you ever created furniture or electronics for your home out of something you had lying around like mix tapes?

Keeping with our solar theme for today- check out this solar radio. The solarDAB radio created by Roberts is touted as the world's first solar powered digital radio. The best part of this solar powered radio, is that it doesn't actually require the sun to function. The radios has solar panels, as well as built-in rechargeable batteries that will allow it to play up to 27 hours consecutively. That's a lot of rocking.

Looking for way to spruce up your yard? These potted plants take energy from the sun and store it during the day so they can glow once the sun goes down. The idea is pretty spiffy, and could definitely help out in lighting a pathway to your door, or helping you find your keys when you forgot to leave the porch light on. If you pick the blue one, they could also be pretty hideous to look at. Score one now for $40.

Planning to travel this summer? With airlines now charging for heavier bags it would be nice to know what your bag weighs in at BEFORE you get to the airport. The Balanzza luggage scale is designed specifically to weigh luggage so you'll know what you're in for before you get to the front of the check-in line. The scale can be easily packed in your luggage for use on the go and can weigh bags up to 100lb. This is a great gadget to pick up that can probably save you some money long term. Get one here.

This is a pretty interesting little gadget that could come in handy for emergency situations where the power is off. For the most part it's just your traditional LED flashlight, but this flashlight has a twist...it will also talk you through basic CPR. While we'd like to think there would never be a situation where the lights would be off AND you'd need to perform CPR at the same time...it could be a nice emergency item to have on hand should one of those events occur.

Are you ever in situations where you wish you had a humidifier? Now you can carry a humidifier everywhere you go with this portable personal humidifier. The device just requires you to attach a bottle of water, and "Ta-Da!" You have a humidifier. The portable device has 120cc/hour of humidity and retails for $39.95.

It's a neat concept, but I don't know exactly what type of situation you would use something like this in. It's not exactly what you would use everyday in your home. Maybe in a home office? Can any of you come up with places this would be good to have on hand?
