Here are the fun techie gifts that cost less than $25 - as seen on World News Now.


I buy a lot of junkie stuff on the Internet, but the Lava Red LED Watch turned out to be a really neat gizmo. Some websites say it’s the Samurai Japanese inspired faceless watch that looks like a bracelet but tells time like a watch. And they’re right. When the LED digits aren’t lit, there’s no hint of a watch. It supposed to be fashion friendly for men and women. It’s a very big and wide bracelet, so I don’t think it would look good on a woman’s wrist. The first time you push the button on the side of the Lava Watch you see the time digits. The second push brings up the red LED date display. The third push brings up the seconds display. But all these displays stay lit for only a few seconds. This is save battery life. One website says there is a way to keep the watch display on all the time, but that would kill the battery really quick so I doubt the watch can do that. List price is said to be anywhere from $50 to $200, but you can find it for about $10 if you do a web search for “lava watch”. Be aware that shipping often takes 2 to 3 weeks from most places listed on Amazon. There is also a blue LED version which I think I like a bit better than the red LED. Also there's a silver version and a black version. I showed the black version on the show. As you can see by the photo above, the silver version doesn't show the time as clear as the dark model. Here's a place that sells it for under $10. I bought several of them here.
