Unpopular But AWESOME Tech!

The Speaker System That's Taking Over Our Lives

We recently stumbled upon an incredible speaker system that's taking over our lives, and we just can't get enough of it. This thing gets loud as a single speaker, but what really makes it magic is when you take it apart. You can actually have it be three speakers if you want, go nuts, throw five – the possibilities are endless. We decided to give it a try and set up multiple units around the room to experience its full potential.

We started by throwing one speaker here, another over there, and we'll get the main unit right here. Jay, can you catch? Yes, you can. We'll put one right here, throw one over here, and let's get the main one right here, okay? The sound is everywhere in this big room, and it's truly amazing to hear how it fills up the space. I'm absolutely loving this system, but what's crazy is that you don't just get stuck with five speakers if you pick up more than one of these. You can just keep adding on and going, going, going.

In terms of syncing, it does have a small pause when you jump to a different song or when you initially press play. It plays here for a second, and then the signal is sent throughout the rest of them, syncing it up. This little delay might be noticeable at first, but overall, this system is super cool, and I'm giving Ari a huge shout-out for finding this system. She's the one who discovered it, so kudos to her.

Now, let's talk about something else that caught my attention – a water bottle with a blender in it. It looks like something from science fiction, but trust me when I say it's real. This thing is called the Neutral Pod, and it basically has a motor that you can attach to your cup. You press a button, and it shakes up whatever you put inside with water – yes, you read that right, this blender is in a bottle! It's like having a portable blender that can handle anything you throw at it.

Let's say you've got some protein powder, and you want to make a quick shake. You just toss the powder into the Neutral Pod, add some milk or water, close it up, and press the button. The motor does its magic, blending everything together seamlessly. It's like having a personal blender in your cup, but without the hassle of having a separate bottle.

This system is so clutch for me that I'm shocked it's not more popular. I've been using it for years, and I never thought anyone would talk about it, but here we are, sharing our excitement with you guys. The Neutral Pod comes with a sleeve, which makes it easy to carry around when you need a warm drink on the go. It even has a USB port, so if your phone dies, you can charge it up quickly.

That's all for today's video, folks. We hope you enjoyed this tour of some cool tech that we've been using and haven't really talked about before.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwhat's going on guys it's your average consumer and today we're going to be checking out some awesome but unpopular tech we see a lot of mainstream products get covered left and right but there's actually a lot of cool tech out there that you just don't see anybody talking about and today we're going to be going over a few of my favorites but before we get started we got to give a huge shout out to next insurance for sponsoring this portion of the video if you're self-employed or a business owner you need business insurance next is a one-stop shop for

click the link in the description to get a quote from next today so huge thanks to next for sponsoring that portion of the video now let's talk about this tech all right guys so the first thing i wanted to talk about has been a bit of a sore spot for me in the past you guys have seen my luck with a smart trash can in my kitchen didn't work out so well that kind of failed we're still using it but it wasn't really the best investment and a lot of you said why do you need a smart trash can you guys are sleeping on the smart trash can world there's actually some pretty good stuff out there and this is one of the good things that exists this is the tao new smart trash can t3 and this is actually a pretty decent trash can it's not huge it's meant for like a you know small office space so this guy right here is like just three gallons but it has all the smart features you'd come to expect no voice controls unfortunately uh but it does work pretty well all you have to do is go up to it it has a sensor so it'll automatically raise up and it's actually got some really cool things that it can do so instead of just normal trash bags it uses these special trash containers i guess and inside of here it houses the trash bags so check this out i think we're pretty much there uh but your boy has some wendy's so i'm ready to toss this the only thing i don't like is that it's got a bit of a small rim so you can't really stuff huge things inside of here but we got some extra trash that fit and when you've got it all filled up and you're ready to change the bag all you do is press this single button right here and voila you guys there you have it all your trash nice and neat sealed up ready for you to just toss it and now look it uses this air technology that it pushes the bag down and you got a whole new bag ready to go so you can just throw your trash out all the press of a button you got this nice sealed trash bag and if you happen to have something that has like water or something leaks it is also waterproof so you don't have to worry about that messing anything up i believe on a single charge it'll work for 80 days so you don't have to worry about charging this thing all the time this thing has been awesome i mean and this is super neat i think for a bedroom or even like a tight space like a bathroom this thing is gonna be clutch so another take on the smart trash can world i like this i really do like the one i have in my kitchen i just wish it didn't clunk out on me but this is dope so for all you people who said smart trash cans aren't a thing it shouldn't be a thing i think you're wrong now obviously you put tech inside of anything price goes up a little bit uh i think this guy on amazon is like 130 bucks or so something in that price range a little expensive but i think it's worth it i think this is dope does they have a specific bag you need to buy yeah yeah it uses so it uses these particular bags so the stuff inside of these rings so this is the ring it contains the bag in it and then uh you can buy the refills for these seriously it's unpopular just like the rest of this stuff dang y'all it's getting dark quick all right more importantly the next thing is really really cool and i'm surprised we haven't heard or i i'm surprised i haven't seen more people talk about this so what we've got right here is called the shadow cast by a company called genki they make some pretty dope stuff this is really cool so as you can see look at my setup you guys i've got an xbox one x over here and this random hp laptop is a hp envy what do you think is happening here you guys i could play the xbox one x or any console for that matter on my pc so the shadowcast basically looks like a flash drive with an hdmi side and a usb type-c side so with this you plug it into the hdmi port of any console or pretty much anything that you want to connect to the computer and with a usbc cable you connect that to your laptop or pc and look at this glory i've got my xbox running on my actual pc and it's running super smoothly now what makes this cool is the fact that you can pretty much take your console if you need some kind of portable screen you can use your laptop as the screen and as you guys can see here this thing runs really smooth you can actually change from performance mode to a resolution mode so if you want it to look even cleaner you can go ahead and do that there is some input lag if you're playing a game like apex where it's like a first person shooter or something you probably won't want that but if you're playing like an rpg it'll be fine so for me personally i think being able to use your laptop as a portable screen is awesome and it doesn't just work on windows it works on the mac too so let's say you want to play something like the nintendo switch we've got it over here it actually fits very nicely in the back so you can throw it in here in the dock close it up boom you've got pokemon running right here on an imac and this is just insane to me i never thought we'd see the day where we can have like your imac screen which is a beautiful screen uh be used as a display for something like a nintendo switch and it also just it has the music and everything like all the audio goes through comes in nice and clear and interestingly enough let's put this music back down interestingly enough you have a few more controls on the mac version then you do windows you can record what's going on on the screen here by just tapping that you can even have commentary by using the microphone take screenshots all that stuff so if you want to maybe save some gameplay you can just use your computer to capture some of that footage this thing only goes for 50 bucks you guys i think that is just an incredible value if you're a gamer especially if you want to take this game on the go you got a nice big laptop screen or maybe you just want to take out your macbook connect your switch to it and play on a bigger screen anywhere you can do that i think that's dope i can imagine playing 2k carl against the homies you see you see imagine just pulling up with two controllers you got your xbox in your bag as well as your laptop and boom playing 2k pretty much anywhere you want i think that's fire look at that you guys super effective i've been waiting to say that but yeah i don't know how this thing isn't more popular i haven't really seen people talk about the shadow cast as a game capture card i think that thing is pretty dope but moving on check this out you guys you might have seen this in a previous video with arie and i where she showed me a bunch of new tech that i've never seen before it's actually a really good video if you haven't seen it i'll have it linked down below in the description but this right here is a bluetooth speaker now you've seen bluetooth speakers before that's pretty popular but this is called the quirky air and check it out you guys not only is it a bluetooth speaker but the thing splits apart so it goes from being one speaker into five so you can go ahead and have like a completely immersive surround sound kind of experience is actually really dope carl what are we listening to man i have no idea what that is all right fair trade well we're going to get hit with the copyright strikes jay you gotta you gotta chop this up man but this thing gets loud as a single speaker but the magic is really when you just take the thing apart you can actually have it be three speakers if you want go nuts throw five you gotta go around the room let's let's do this so we'll throw one right here carl can you catch yes you can we'll put one right here throw one over here and let's get the let's get the main one right here okay jay we got to play something that's not a copyright copyright song man so this thing is crazy dope absolutely fills up a room this is a pretty big room and the sound is everywhere you guys so i like this thing a lot but what's crazy is that you don't just get stuck with five if you pick up more than one of these you can just keep adding on and just keep going and going and going uh in terms of like syncing it does have like a like a small pause when you jump to a different song or when you initially press play it plays here and then it kind of sends the signal throughout the rest of them syncs it up so you might hear that little delay there for a second but i think this thing is super super cool so i gotta give ari a huge shout out she's the one who found this system so kudos to her so last but not least you guys is this water bottle right here now i know we've talked about water bottles previously my favorite tech of the month but this is a little bit different this has very different functionality i remember i did a video maybe like five years ago ages ago uh about workout tech uh and this thing is basically a blender in a bottle so if you have something that you need to blend with water or pretty much anything you can actually see the bottom has this motor that you can attach to the cup and then you press a button okay you know it's called the vortex spinner uh it would look a little crazier if this thing wasn't in it this is called the what is the neutral pod basically if you have like a protein shake you want to have your protein powder you can put it inside of here and then toss it in here but check it out this thing can pretty much shake up any drink mix any drink that you want and it does it really really well so like let's say you've got some protein you want to throw it inside of here you just toss it now of course there are those like blender balls that you can shake up and have that make your protein drinks i personally prefer this i think it's better than having to shake up a bottle and it does like such a really really good job let this thing run for a few seconds and you're good like that thing is stirred up perfectly so if you work out it's like a no-brainer you put your protein shakes inside of here with your milk whatever it is it'll shake it up it'll do a really really good job but you can also use it outside of like protein and stuff if you have like hot chocolate that you want to mix up you can throw some hot chocolate in here mix it up it even comes with a sleeve so if you want to carry something warm you can go ahead and do that i don't know about you guys but i never see anyone talk about or use something like this and it's been so clutch for me for years that i'm just shocked that it's not more popular now this one is called the mixer plus because you can take this off and of course you can charge it with a micro usb cable which is kind of why uh but it also has a usb port so if you want to charge your phone maybe your phone died you need some quick juice boom you've got it right here in the form of this little blender for your cup so a nice emergency battery backup if you need it you know i'm all about that life but that's about it for this video guys this is pretty much just a bunch of cool stuff that i knew existed that i've been personally using that i have never heard anyone else really talk about now i'm sure somebody's gonna say they've heard of it i'm not trying to be a hipster over here i just don't see it myself i don't see anyone talking about it so i thought it would be pretty cool to put it on you guys radar so hopefully you enjoyed it if you want to see more videos like this where i find cool tech that i've been using that i don't really hear about often or think you guys may know about let me know with a comment down below and i'm gonna catch you guys in the next video till then it's your average consumer peace favorite product carl uh speakers i haven't no favorite
