What Is Quake Hold?

- It's Museum Putty! Still not clear? The manufacturer explains:

Quake Hold! Museum Putty secures antiques, collectibles, figurines and more from falling and breaking. It can be used on most surfaces, including ceramics, porcelains and laminates, as well as on walls to help stabilize pictures. It comes ready to use in a two-and-a-half ounce flat sleeve, just pull off what you need. Roll the putty into small balls (about the size of a pea), or strips, and apply to the base of an item. Press down lightly and twist into position. It sets within 30-minutes and comes off cleanly with no mess. To remove, simply lift and twist from the bottom of the object. One packet will secure up to forty items of average size.

From The Giz Wiz. Be sure to watch my demo video. This worked great for me, and we never let it set for 30 minutes as it said in the instructions. (Your results may vary.) The company says it can hold up to 40 pounds depending on many factors, so be sure to read the full instructions. And of course there is no warantee that an object will remain adhered to a surface. Caution is required, etc. It is also very low priced, about $4. Also from one of the reviews I read it seems this product is sold under several different names, but I bought the Quake Hold! brand.

An Ideal Portable Camping Fan/LED Lantern/Phone Charger.

Here's an easy way to keep cool and to light up a tent at night this summer. It's the X10 Portable Camping Fan/LED Lantern with 7800mAh rechargeable battery. It has a racketing 180° head rotation that stays in place where you set it. A fold-out hook makes it easy to hang in a tent, on a branch, beam, etc. The entire device is small enough to pack. It has USB-C charging in, plus a 2A quick charging out function. That means the 7800 mAh battery can also be used as emergency power to charge your phone, GPS, iPod, etc. A really nice touch is the included remote control that lets you set the fan speed and light level without getting out of sleeping bag. But wait, there's more! The remote control also lets you set a timer to shut off at 2, 3 or 5 hours. The company says it takes 6-8 hours to charge completely, but it can be used while charging. aced on desk at home or in office. The battery can work continuously from 8-25 hours depending on light level, fan speed, or both. (There are battery level LED's so you can see the state of the charge.) It sounds quiet which the company says it due to it brush-less motor. I think the price is very decent at under $30.00.

New! Anker Nano II Charger series powered by Gan II Technology.

Anker's new Nano II series of chargers are the first in the world to take advantage of Gallium Nitride (GaN) II technology. The new Nano II lineup includes 65, 45 and 30 watt chargers - smaller and faster charging options for consumers. This new generation of Nano II charger series is not only smaller and more portable, but also makes a leap forward in compatibility and charging safety. The entire lineup comes with a single USB-C port powered by the latest version of Anker’s own Power IQ 3.0 technology, that charges the iPhone up to 3 times faster than the 5W stock charger, and is compatible with Samsung Super Fast Charging. The 65W Nano II charger is the same size as the 30W Atom PD 1 but more than twice as powerful. It can charge most smartphones, tablets, or any USB-C Laptops. For those looking to travel light, the 30W charger is as small as a 5W stock charger, but can handle a Nintendo Switch or even the latest Macbook Air. The 45W charger is slightly larger than the 30W. The extra 15 watts are enough to keep chromebooks and other mid-sized notebooks charged. Additionally, both the 45W and 65W options feature foldable plugs for easier packing. As opposed to silicon, which is typically used in most chargers, GaN provides a more efficient way to disperse heat, allowing chargers to safely operate at faster speeds.

The 30W model retails for $29.99, the 45W for $35.99 and the 65W for $39.99, with shipping starting in the middle of June.
