I think the point of the sticky laptop holder thing is to keep it on there permanently. I don't believe you're supposed to constantly put it on and remove it. And personally, I'd buy it for that reason. I'd also buy it because, no offense, the hand doesn't look like it will hold securely. Maybe it does, but it's that fear that would keep me from buying it. Anything that goes on easy, makes me think it comes off easy.

It’s not a knockoff of your idea, it’s a pretty simple idea that a lot of people could think of

[@hailmightyjimmy_6400]

I mean on most of them he said it’s probably not a ripoff

[@jrylands3]

@wombly_1068 yeah thats... what he said in the video...

[@ashurean]

I honestly think there's a case to be made to patent these kinds of products for the sole purpose of keeping people from creating mountains of cheap plastic garbage trying to cash in. On the other hand, I could see that laptop strap being CRAZY useful in a number of use cases. From someone working at a data center, having to move from server to server to plug in their laptop, to a college student moving between classes, to basically anyone who is using a laptop while expected to go between places constantly.

[@GuardTower]

The laptop "holder" I think was supposed to be stuck on the hinge area, so that you dont have to rip the adhesive everytime you want to open the laptop

[@mrtnostrived]

The reason the knock candle cannon thing didn't work is the shape of it. Air cannons work best with the telescopic round shape. I haven't seen your video on the Candle Cannon, but it looks like a mini Airzooka.

[@jdvz]

And also if you noticed, there's a hole underneath. Looks like the hole is where you slide the handle

[@pinbi7]

air canon was on Helen 13 years ago and that wasn't new

[@Fisha695]

Also noticed that everytime with the knockoff he was letting the recoil push the cannon down thus aiming the air at the body of the candle instead of the flame.

[@FuSiionCraft]

Yes but.... Does everyone forget there's a fucking giant slit on the bottom where you put the handle ? Of course the air will come out from there.

[@ccggenius]

It also seems a bit disingenuous to lay claim to a grade school science experiment, but that's neither here nor there.

UNNECESSARY IDEA: So you know how when you look in the mirror you see everything backwards? Well what if you make a mirror that reflects the right way.

If I were forced to use one or the other, I'd definitely take the adhesive Mac holder just because it looks WAY safer. That said, I suppose the best option would be combining the two, i.e. a smaller adhesive cover that the hand hooks on instead of the grip. Though the cover wouldn't look as nice as that one which covers most of the laptop.

[@erikas.6790]

I don't particularly love the idea of my laptop being in plain view in public while I'm casually walking, so I'd say neither

[@richardmarquez668]

I would definitely buy your air Cannon because it looks more fun and it looks solid the little pull back balloon on the other looks like it break in a few uses

[@tunexsquid2604]

I had a massive air cannon like that when I was younger. You pulled back a bag on the back with elastic and it made a massive amount of air come out. It would probably move a cake. yours is like a tiny version of it. I believe it was called an airzooka.

[@FishoD]

It takes a healthy amount of confidence to see your beloved product, compare it with competition and then just say "Yeah theirs is better. I love it." .

[@powerpatent4366]

Love your videos with the Candle Cannon(TM). We have worked with many inventors who share your sentiments after finding knockoffs. But patenting can be expensive, so I am working on a system to help inventors DIY for the patent application to make this accessible to inventors like you who make the world better!

[@RandomBogey]

6:50 I don’t think you’d have to do it every time if you put it in the hinge side. It looked like it had vents, but, even without, when you open the laptop, the non-adhesive line would bulge out

[@Octobok]

The vabroom seems a little more efficient because I don’t have to flip the broom over to use the vacuum

[@Eli-rq8et]

I think another plus of the wonnie is that on the zoom call if you accidentally stand up they look enough like actual pants that no one would think you’re wearing a one piece pajama

[@DDProCo]

I believe you’re supposed to leave the sticker on the MacBook. Use it with the holder attached. And it’s more secure.
