Lithium-ion batteries are highly efficient, dissipating less than 10% of their energy as heat during operation. However, they require thermal management systems to regulate this heat, as it can negatively impact their performance and lifespan. On the other hand, their far more inefficient electrochemical distant cousin, the human body, generates enough heat to boil over 100 cups of tea daily and is literally just chillin'.Continue ReadingCategory: E

Finnish smartphone brand Jolla isn't in the business of competing with the dizzying array of Android handsets out there. In fact, it took a long break before announcing its latest model – but from the sound of things, it might be worth the wait.Continue ReadingCategory: Mobile Technology,

A full ecosystem of tempting components turn the capacious empty canopy into a proper Out

When it comes to everyday carry (EDC) tools, we usually think of folding knives, compact multitools, and ultralight flashlights. One category, however, is often overlooked – reliable clamping tools. The new MetMo Pocket Grip, developed by a small engineering team from the UK, reimagines a century-old device to fill that gap. It's currently on Kickstarter.Continue ReadingCategory: Around The Home, LifestyleTags:

Founded in 1929 in Prague, Czechoslovakia, Jawa’s first model was the 500 OHV, which did wonders in establishing the brand’s reputation for solid engineering and distinctive design.Continue ReadingCategory: Motorcycles, TransportTags: Jawa,

Though most tiny houses we see are designed with nomadic living in mind, the Forest is intended for a more settled lifestyle. The home is semi-permanently installed on some rural land and expands its limited interior living space with a large deck outside that includes a porch area and a rooftop terrace.Continue ReadingCategory: Tiny Houses, OutdoorsTags:
