Giz Wiz Show 1721 April 4, 2019 Independent Show #203

DateApril 6, 2019 CommentPost a Comment

Wow! The Giz Wiz Show started year 13 overall & our 5th year of Independent Production! (First Giz Wiz show was February 20th, 2006.) Thanks to our wonderful Patreon supporters we continue on! If it wasn't for them, the Giz Wiz Show would be gone. 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. Thank you for doing that! Our show wouldn't exist without our viewer's support, but a bit more support would be a big help. Thanks from OMGchad & DickDe!

A great gadget to unclutter your desk, or to take on a trip: My Desktop from RapidX

Although this is pitched as a gadget to reduce desktop clutter, I think it's also good for travel. That's because under the desk at a lot of hotels there's often an 2-plug outlet with a lamp plugged into one and the TV plugged into the other. You could plug this device in where the lamp is plugged in and then plug the lamp into this! Now you still have 5 ways to charge devices or power another AC device. It's the Rapid-X My Desktop multipurpose power strip with wireless charging and 3 USB ports. So you can charge your Qi- wireless enabled devices, USB powered devices, and any device using a standard wall plug. For wireless charging just place your compatible Qi enabled phone horizontally on the stand to initiate charging. Saves space and clutter on your desk or nightstand. As you'll see in the video, the 5' connecting cord is heavy duty but it has to be to provide the power to the two 3-prong outlets on the device itself. And finally, the company says there's a built-In surge protector to keep your devices safe. Available in 3 color combinations. More details at Amazon and on the company website. MSRP $59.99
