The Giz Wiz Show # 1816 – Thursday 1/28/21 Independent Show #295

This is our 5th year of Independent Production! (First Giz Wiz show was February 20th, 2006.) Thanks to our wonderful Patreon supporters we're now going into year 15. If it wasn't for our supporters 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/  

This week we finish our look at some gizmos and gadgets from the Virtual 2021 CES Show!

We start with a CES 2021 Best of Innovation Award in the Smart Home category.

This is something really different. It's a pet door that comes with a full sized door! Huh? Read on. The company says their myQ Pet Portalis a secure and convenient way to make sure your dog can go outside when they need to, while giving the pet own access at any time, through their smartphone. It works for dogs as small as 10 lbs. up to 90 lbs. and includes safety sensors to ensure safe passage. They add that traditional retrofit dog doors can leave your home exposed to the elements, pesky critters, and other unwanted guests, whereas their design features an auto-close and lock system that triggers after your pet traverses the opening. A two-way camera with audio enables real-time and recorded viewing of a pet’s comings and goings so you can see what is happening at all times. With the myQ Pet Portal app, pet parents can customize alerts, set preferences for how Fido can enter/exit the portal and get daily reports on a pet’s comings and goings. It retails for less than half of what many pet owners spend annually on a dog walker. The professionally installed myQ Pet Portal is now available for pre-order on the company website starting at $2,999.00
