Burga Offers a Sleek, Compact Wireless Charger

This Burga phone charger is about the size of a coaster, and it looks swell with its LED circular lighting. No more wire charging with this, just pop the phone on even with its cover, for a full and complete charge. Comes in rose gold or black with a matching cord.

It boasts a sophisticated temp-control module that prevents overheating, as well as short-circuit and surge triggers that’ll calm even the most paranoid of minds. The charger’s Qi power easily penetrates plastic, rubber, and TPU, so no need to take off the case if you’re rocking one. The only quibble we have with this unit is that you have to place the phone down several times before it clicks on to charge.

Speaking of power… The BURGA Wireless Charger can fill up any Qi-enabled device, so after your iPhone’s done charging you can drop your AirPods for a pump, too.

If You Work Standing Up, Try the Whirly Board

The Whirly Board is an innovative new balance board. It is designed as a fun way to get some exercise, build fundamental skills, and improve your abilities in the comfort of your home, gym or office.

Each board is constructed from a skateboard deck with triple half-sphere technology.

When I first got on this thing, I was scared to death.

But after time, you get the hang of it, and soon you’ll never want to just stand there at your desk again!

The original Whirly Board consists of a wooden balance board made from a standard 8.25″ wide Canadian Maple 8 ply skateboard deck. Each deck is unique containing a wood grain pattern that is contoured to help your feet grip the board. Skateboarders will feel right at home, and everyone will appreciate the tried and true shape.

Two small balance balls are attached to the deck, one on the nose and one on the tail. We make each small ball from durable urethane rubber with a hardness of around 110A. The material is similar to a very hard skateboard wheel.

Whirly Board $149.99

Litter-Robot 3 Connect: The Future is Here, and it Smells Wonderful

Like many travelers, I was thrown off the road by the COVID Pandemic. Stuck at home, I started a new journey with two new rescue kittens. They grew up fast, and so did the disproportionate amount of waste they created. How could so much poop come out of two tiny cats? It defied the laws of physics.

Although I love them, scooping out their stinky litter box became a daily ritual I came to hate. There had to be a better way.

I reached out to folks at Litter-Robot, who kindly sent me one of their machines. After owning it for six months of constant use, here is what I found. The Litter-Robot is ingenious. It is surprisingly easy to set up and comes with detailed instructions and suggestions on how to acclimate your cats to it. It is essentially a plug-and-play device.

I filled it with clumping litter, with a little of the old litter that had their smell. I left the old box next to it and let it get so filled up that it became less attractive to my little monsters. After a few days, I removed the old box, and the transition was seamless. They started using the Litter-Robot without a glitch.

The Litter-Robot has a rotating inner compartment that turns and sifts all waste into a bagged and odor filtered box below. The clean litter is then sifted back, ready for subsequent use. The lower charcoal filtered waste compartment slides out from the bottom, revealing a plastic bag held in place by attached clips. It even alerts you when the compartment is full.

As soon as your cat enters and exits the Litter-Robot, it senses it, and a timer starts. After 5 minutes, the cleaning cycle begins. It takes only a minute. If your cat enters during the process or jumps on top, it stops automatically. This thing is smart.

Occasionally, you will have to give it a thorough cleaning. The outer “bonnet” is easily removed. The inner chamber comes out for a complete hose down outside or in a bathtub. Litter-Robot knows all.

Although it is not 100% odor-free (especially if you let it fill up to the brim), the filtered compartment reduces the smell by a solid 80%. Not too shabby. The other day a neighbor who also has a cat came over for coffee and commented, “I can always tell when someone else has a cat, but I can’t smell a thing!

The only drawback is the price. At almost $550, It is a hefty investment. But if I add up how much less litter we use, the lack of arguments with my partner about who scoops the poop, and how much better our house smells, the Litter-Robot is well worth the price of admission.

Usually, at the end of a review, I reveal my likes and dislikes about a product, but I honestly love this thing and can’t imagine our home without it.

Litter Robot $550

Q54 Backyard Fun: This Makes Corn Hole Look Boring!

QB54 is a football toss game built into two camping chairs. The perfect tailgating and outdoor pastime, it brings people together for a good time with football year-round. You can literally play anywhere!

The box includes two folding game chairs, yellow plastic uprights for each chair, and a QB54 mini football. Mike and Frank Silva created the football toss game as kids in the ‘80s.

In 2020, QB54 sold more than $1 million game sets, growing 10 times in the process. The game is fun, and there are two ways to score: Throw the football into the net in the seat, or through the uprights. One variation, however, is that it’s easier to move the chairs closer than the recommended 40 yards…few people can throw that accurately who aren’t named Brady.
