It's called "Boosted Safe" because it clips in where a booster seat would normally clip in. (Trust me. I'm a dad.)

[@Imshady69]

I just commented about that. Those clips come right off though with a press of a button. That safe would be gone

[@TheSanpletext]

Boosted also means to have stolen. The company should have combined the ideas and made a booster seat that is also a safe underneath.

That autowit box is actually a lot cooler than a normal battery box. It's a capacitor so it charges from your mostly dead battery then uses that power to give you a jump start.

[@somenygaard]

That’s pretty cool: definitely not your ordinary jump box.

[@pmp1337]

now I need one of those!

[@althejazzman]

Wow that's such an unusual approach. I too thought it was just another lithium battery pack.

[@MrMega200]

Autowit only works if there is charge in the battery and it isn't at it's end of life. A regular lithium jump start box will jump start larger engines much easier. Project Farm reviewed it and it couldn't handle the tractor engine while similarly priced lithium ones would.

[@TimBass]

@@MrMega200 yeah, not for every circumstance. But I'd say it is amazing for most circumstances people face. Normal car battery that's just weak/old or 'ran the radio too long' kind of situations. Lithium batteries have to be charged ahead of time and they don't like to be stored at full charge since it reduces their lifespan. They don't like being stored in super hot or cold places, which is exactly what a car is most of the time plus they can occasionally catch fire for no reason. A lot of advantages of this kind of capacitor pack since it avoids all of that.

Problem with the safe is that the burglar has to break into your car before they know they can't steal it. So you still end up needing a new window.

[@mancomecanico]

Well given the fact that some dickhole broke into my shitty as all hell '03 corsa when it was clearly as worthless as the content of the backseat (That was visibly empty of course), Imma go out on a limb and say that your window is never safe from crackheads

[@jkizzle9953]

Making it known to potential burglars that u have a safe will most likely attract more attention (as u have something worth protecting in a safe). There’s not a great way to deter a burglar breaking in in the first place, but at least you’d only be out a window and not ur valuables.

[@mancomecanico]

@@jkizzle9953 True that. I guess if it looked like a booster seat it would be more inconspicuous, but the thought of the legality or safety regulations involved give me a headache

I actually have one of those hudways and I've found that it's a great idea which in practice is a little inconvenient. For example, in my SUV the seating position is quite high and so I end up looking down at it and taking my eyes off the road anyways. Another thing is that you need at least a foot of space ideally on top of your instrument cluster to stick the thing, so if you have a low clearance windshield or an instrument cluster that slopes down in behind, it won't fit. Also I've found the projected display is a little fuzzy, but if you can mount it in a place where it's actually in front of your view while driving, it's a solid little thing.

I actually got a HUD off amazing for like $18 a couple years ago. I mainly got it because the engineers at Mazda decided that my 2012 Mazda3 Skyactiv 6spd manual didn't need a coolant temp gauge, we just get a blue light for cold and a red light for overheating so by the time you hit red it's probably too late. My HUD does speed/temp/rpm/voltage although the rpms are real slow and the speed is not very accurate but IT plugs into the obd2 and reads the temps that way so I didn't have to mess with sensors or install a temp sensor in the hoses. Works good for that.

Kudos to the boys for wasting money and a bit of sanity just for our entertainment

[@MarioGoatse]

Kudos to whoever coded this bot to get massive amounts of likes on every video on KZbin

Fortunately, the bag is "resualble". I feel *very* confident about their quality control, and attention to detail. (circa 12:27)

[@GDaddyTx]

I’m digging the little cars/cat toys…😂😂😂😂

Donut videos are so good

That bag one is perfect for people who live in a place prone to flooding.. keep that in the garage if there's a flood warning bag the car if you got no other choice it could save the car from any sort of flood damage.

[@stephen3164]

Start pushing! Also, does it come with a twist tie to seal the bag closed afterwards? If you don’t have an open top car, good luck putting the car back in gear with the parking brake set afterwards. It’s subtle, but they are pushing that car in to the bag! For flood zones, easier to jack up the car and put the car on “stilts” to lift it up, or try one of those inflatable car covers you drive in to, then get out and seal the car in. Or put a 4 post lift in your garage, if you have the money for one. For “minor flooding”, you could use car ramps and just park your car on those.

[@YusufPetersenCPT]

@@stephen3164 ain't nobody got time fo all that steps I would just bag it easy peasy. Not everyone has ramps or stilts or lifts or even enough Jack's to keep a whole car up. I saw someone do the bag thing thats why I recommended it it was a porsche water got till past the door sill. If it wasn't for the bag it would have a flooded interior. So cost per advantage is on the bags side.

This makes me think you guys need to do an etsy episode. Challenge eachother to see who can find the best bling on a set budget. I got a plate frame for my TRD. Slight issues after 2 years, but a fun buy all the same. A resin encased Carbon Fiber plate. Looks great for price. Main issue is the resin is UV yellowing a bit.

[@rcsibiu]

for the last one I really hoped the bag would win and get funded I mean if it really works it would be a banger product because it could protect your car from snow, leaves, dust and so on

[@daniobrien1049]

It’s funny, I actually new a few of these back when I was more active in researching about engineering (stopped getting involved as much in kickstarter side of inspiration when I decided I didn’t want to go into engineering as a career). The hudway is one that showed up at least 5 years ago but I think longer so it kind of explains the weirdness, also explains why the access to HUD apps is so bungy.

[@LucoreAuto]

Really would love to see a new "Smaller Automotive KZbinrs" video like you all did a long time ago. Does great things to help us little folks grow ;)

A lot of newer Mazdas now have a heads-up display built into them. I own a Mazda CX-30 which has one

[@VroodenTheGreat]

You can get a program for your phone that makes it into a heads up display on the windshield.
