    The Giz Wiz Show # 1652, December 8th, 2017 Independent Show #135 

    Soon, in February 2018, we'll be entering our fourth year of Independent Production! And that all thanks to our wonderful Patreon supporters! If you'd like to support OMGchad & DickDe in our independent venture (we pay for everything ourselves, including travel) just click the Patreon link at the top of our show web page: http://www.gizwiz.tv  You can also contribute just once via the PayPal link that's there too. And thank you for doing that! Our show wouldn't exist without our viewer's support, but quite frankly, a bit more support would be a big help. (As we can say honestly, asking for more Patreon supporters is not to make more money, it's to help us lose less money doing The Giz Wiz. Thanks.)

    This week I have a really cheap way to protect your identity when throw out documents, a 32 LED Selfie Light and super easy way to open those frustrating clam-shell packages! And we'll also learn what theme our loyal Patreon members picked for Chad for December. Now on to the show!

     

    First the selfie-stick, now the selfie-LED-light.

     

    There are a few Led Selfie Light Rings in the marketplace, but this one from Raphycool has a great additional feature. A built-in power bank. That means if your phone is running low on battery as you're shooting pictures or videos, you can plug your device into the Selfie Ring's 1500mAh battery. The selfie clip on light has 3 levels light: Low, Medium and High. The company says it works for 12 hours on Low, 4~6 hours on Medium, and 2 hours on High when fully charged. That of course will be less if you're also using the built in battery to charge your device. This ring light contains 32 LED's so you can also clip it on a laptop, tent pole, backpack, anywhere you need additional light. It's light weight at 2.6 oz. and it small enough to put in your tote bag or larger pocket. I haven't tried it, but the company says you can also use it for reading, without disturbing others. A rubber grip on the clip helps prevent scratches to whatever you clip it to. Comes with a micro charging cable and anti-water pouch.
