Testing 3 Strange Gadgets You Need to See!

[@FlexibleToast]

I think I have a potentially brilliant idea for the two sided cup. You could freeze water on one side and then put a flavored beverage in the other side. Maybe the ice side would keep the flavor side cool without watering it down and as it melts, you can have cold water. That might be great for hot climates if it works.

[@shannondore]

I was thinking that too. That's what I would do with it.😊

[@scotdixon777]

It looks like pretty rigid hard plastic. I assume that freezing water in one size would crack it when the ice expands.

[@maryroberts2099]

Or fill one side with ice cubes

[@seanlavoie2]

That’s not a bad idea, but I doubt as sturdy as it looks you’d want to freeze water inside it. I’d go ice cubes . . . may crushed ice.

[@FlexibleToast]

@scotdixon777 don't overfill the one side. Also, lay it on its side so it has more room to expand. I've done that in other rigid containers, and it works great.

I'm a professional video editor currently working on a story about these drink coasters called "Boce Coasters". Says it uses "quantum energy transfer technology" to make any drink taste better in 3 minutes just by putting your drink on the coaster. Personally, the whole thing seems super scammy to me but I don't see any honest video reviews on it and I would love to see one from my favorite reviewer.

[@AudacityTheEditor]

I think a useful test for the sticky notes could be writing on one and leaving it until your "One Year Review" to see if/how it still washes off. A lot of people may want to use these for shopping lists or notes for family stuck to a fridge or mirror and leave them for weeks or months. If the ink still washes off after a year I would be impressed.

[@buddhamus]

You should have tested to see if the sticky note would have stuck to a car's dashboard. If it did, I could see it being used as a reminder to get or do something while driving somewhere. I liked the 2-in-1 bottle (you used my remark in the video. Cool!). Having water on one side and a sugary soda on the other would be nice as sometimes the sugar in the soda can feel weird in your mouth. I would the water to clean the palate. I don't know if I would use the snack dispenser; I'd keep missing my mouth.

I could see the snack dispense being useful in niche cases but not for what they say. I was thinking it might be good for giving kids snacks because it could reduce the chances of spilling the whole container somewhere or the kid pouting too many M&Ms out of the bag into their hand so they end up on the floor or in the couch etc. The other thing was maybe for pet treats? Since it looks like maybe a cat would have trouble getting them out themselves? Idk. I think it's more of a novelty as you said.

Ya know what, that first one, the dual cup thing, that would be GREAT for keeping something iced, without watering it down.

This would be even better for that reward type thing you did for walking. Ice with ice cold water to not only keep the soda cold, but also to drink from every so often. Then when you get your soda reward, it's still nice and cold! Though, to be fair, This is ONLY if it works how I'm saying. If the cold can transfer to the other side, then it'd work, but if it just can't, then I guess never mind haha
