You can pay for your coffee, turn off your lights, control your TV, and start your car with your smartphone — so why can’t you unlock your doors? That’s exactly what Lockitron ($150) does. This sleek box slips over the inside of most deadbolt locks, and sports built-in Wi-Fi to let you check on the status of and lock/unlock your door from afar.

SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

Screen Shot 2012 06 26 at 4.13.48 PM 650x489 SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

Don’t be sh*t out of luck when a huge disaster or emergency strikes and causes an electricaloutage…which is exactly what Sun Flare Systems hopes to avoid with their SOS in a Box: a totally portable (and ultra-high efficient) solar power generator. It can produce up to 800-2,500 Watts of household electricity on demand for when an emergency strikes. the patent-pendngsolar powered backup generator system provides instant solar electrical power in any outage or disaster so you have a virtually endless supply of electricity.

Screen Shot 2012 06 26 at 4.16.46 PM 650x416 SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

The kit consists of three main components that work together to create a very efficient home power plant, including the generator backup, high efficiency solar panel(s)s and the charge controller. The solar kit works better than any gas generator because in an emergency, gas stations can’t pump gas without electricity, so it’s a waste of a generator! Even a few gallons stored in a gas can means a little electricity for a little while before it gives out, which won’t happen with a solar kit like this.

Screen Shot 2012 06 26 at 4.13.39 PM 650x502 SOS IN A BOX: PORTABLE SOLAR POWERED BACKUP GENERATOR SYSTEM

The Sun Flare Systems SOS in a Box comes in four different models that all provide reliable power when you need it most. Their lowest model is the Marine RV Line for $1,080 that provides 75 Watts of PV power with 25amp MPPT charge controller, with external battery terminals for those consumers who already have their own battery systems and inverters. Their Economy Line sells for $1,348 and features 75 Watts of PV power complete with 800 Watt 110/120 60hz power inverter, 25amp MPPT charge controller, all built in with a 18Amph battery for lite overnight power use. The Commercial Grade is $2,248 and provides double the PVsolar power at 150Watts, 1000watt 110/120 60hz inverter, 25amp MPPT charge controller, and with an increased 36Amph battery, but it’s their Military Grade version that’ll provide the best qualityPrice isn’t listed, which means it’s probably pretty expensive.

HyperDog Ball Launcher

HyperDog Ball Launcher HyperDog Ball Launcher

Throwing out your arm while playing fetch gets old… especially when your dog never seems to be pleased.

the HyperDog ball launcher is a sling shot that takes the work (and the mess) out of the game. Pull back the launcher and watch as tennis balls fly up to 220 feet. That’ll give you enough time to drink some beer and devour some grub. And when your dog returns, simply scoop the ball up, hands-free.

The launcher is made from top-grade steel with a rust and chip resistant coating, and the band is strong surgical-grade tubing.

Fido will be impressed.

Bills, Bills, Bills … Bills For iPad, iPhone and Mac Get Major Updates

Bills for iPad 642x468 Bills, Bills, Bills … Bills For iPad, iPhone and Mac Get Major Updates

Included in our “iPad Apps to Manage your Finances” AppGuide, bills for iPad is an app that makes use of familiar office-based visual cues to provide an elegant financial management solution. It uses a projector screen fitted with a month-view calendar and a flip board to show relevant dates and their corresponding bill transactions, respectively. Tappable drawers serve as filters, while office folders open auxiliary sections. Clearly, the app is invested in visuals. It’s only fitting, then, that it should have Retina display support. Fortunately, an update that was “billed” to the app just hours ago gave Bills for iPad just that, and then some. What’s more, Bills for iPhone, the app’s iPhone counterpart, got updated as well.

Bills for iPad and Bills for iPhone now have Retina support (About time!), but only partly (Eh?). Bills developer iBear says that some icons are not yet up to par, and that it plans to come out with an update containing Retina-quality icons just as soon as its house designer puts the finishing touches to them.

Also a long-overdue feature that has finally made its way to both versions of Bills is support for notification badges. With this new feature enabled, the number of overdue bills are displayed in real time over the app icon of either version. Especially if Bills is part of your iPhone or iPad’s main home screen, you never have to suffer the consequences of an unsettled bill.

Bills For iPhone Notification Badge Bills, Bills, Bills … Bills For iPad, iPhone and Mac Get Major UpdatesSupport for notification badges is just one of the update’s improvements.

The usual performance improvements and big fixes are also included in the update. In addition, there’s a new feedback and support section where you can suggest a new app feature, vote on others’ suggestions, or simply express what’s on your mind as regards the app.

Bills for iPad and Bills for iPhone are available in the App Store for $1.99 and $0.99, respectively. A significantly redesigned Mac version predictably called Bills for Mac is also available in the Mac App Store for $9.99. Bills, bills, bills …
