Bracketron’s GreenZero Chargers Puts A Silver Bullet Through The Vampires
FILED IN gadgets No Comments
By David Ponce
Lord, that’s a terrible headline, but that’s the way I roll, baby! It looks like now that the term “vampire electronics” is gaining some traction in the minds of conscious gadget shoppers, more and more manufacturers are trying to make a buck off our fears of spending a few too many dollars on wasted electricity. Granted, it’s with little dollars that you make big ones, but I’m getting a little annoyed at the green veneer for profiteering. Anyway, back to the point, Bracketron’s GreenZero charger is pretty simple: it detects when your device is done charging and cuts off standby power. There. Money saved and now mother nature will hug you in your dreams.
It’s $23 and comes in iPhone and microUSB flavors. It’ll be unveiled at CES next week.

Mobislyder Puts Your Video Shots On Rails
FILED IN gadgets No Comments
By David Ponce
Megapixels count for almost nothing when looking at video quality. First is the lens quality, but perhaps even as important is tracking shot stability. We talked about the CineSkates a while back. That accessory to the Gorillapod put your camera on wheels and opened up cinematic possibilities. Same goes for the Mobislyder, a 43 cm (1.4ft) track with 5 interchangeable mounts and a slider on roller bearings. The ends of the track are covered in rubber feet which help with grip on tilted surfaces, and a switch on the sliding mechanism lets you lock it in place should you need to. Sliding is done by hand so clearly some practice will be needed, but at least the camera is stabilized on two axes.
You can pre-order now for $129, while full retail price should be around $175. Shipping should happen on December 12th.
