5+ Valentines Gadgets
1. My audiopet Bluetooth Speakers
We found these at CES. They are the cutest smallest Bluetooth speakers you’ve ever seen.
With over 20 cute My audiopets to mull over, from a monkey, to a sloth, to a giraffe, to a goldfish, to a dragon, to a panda, to a narwhale, it’s hard to choose just one!
But, that’s just the point. Don’t stop at one.
Buy two because you can link them together so that you receive stereo sound from both of them.
When traveling, I used two of them for stereo in my hotel room and the sound was fantastic.
You don’t expect such great sound from a little speaker, but it is really good. But the fun doesn’t end here.
Download the free Hide and Speak app to play games with your kids…or your pooch.
Hide your My audiopet in a room and have your child try to find it.
The app has built-in responses like, “you’re getting closer,” or you can use a live mic to help your child find his audiopet.
Or, place a My audiopet near your pet’s bed when you are away and talk to him/her live.
If you have a camera to watch his/her reactions, it’s even more fun.
Play music from the new Pet Playlists from Spotify will help put pep in your pup’s step.
The My audiopets are available from Amazon for $29.99 with free shipping.
2. SOLO Parker Hybrid Tote
We love this bag. Another CES find, the ECHOS Parker Hybrid Tote is a must-have.
It’s called a hybrid because it transforms from a tote into a backpack, complete with padded hideaway shoulder straps.
The SOLO Parker Hybrid Tote is a beautiful, professional-looking bag with gold hardware, pinstripe lining, plenty of pockets, including an interior organizer section, and a fully padded laptop compartment to fit up to a 15.6″ laptop.
To assist with traveling, the Parker Hybrid Tote features a back panel that slides over a luggage handle and includes feet at the bottom to protect it.
It’s the perfect stylish bag for work, travel, even for an everyday purse. I use it daily and love it.
The Parker Hybrid Tote works great for when your love needs to take along a laptop, books, materials, or lunch!
The SOLO Parker Hybrid Tote is available from eBags for $55.99 with free shipping.
3. ATOMXS Emergency Charger
This is one of the best Valentines gadgets if your loved one is always running out of battery power.
Portable battery packs have their place but often times you don’t have one around when you need it.
Enter the AtomXS Emergency Charger. It’s one of the smallest chargers available in the market.
At only the size of a coin in diameter, it’s perfect for your pocket or keychain.
Available in two sizes, 2-hour (800 mAh) or 3-hour (1300 mAh), the AtomXS Emergency charger is the ultimate everyday companion, giving your phone extra charge when you need it most.
The AtomSX Emergency Charger is available with Lightning® Connector, Micro USB, USB-C™ options from the Atom website for $34.99 for the 2+ hour and $39.99 for the 3+ hour charger plus shipping.
4. ION Wireless Go Power Bank
The perfect color for one of our recommended Valentines gadgets, the iOttie ION Wireless Go Power Bank is easy to find in a purse or backpack with its red/grey fabric exterior.
Beautifully fashioned, the ION Wireless Go Power Bank features a 10,000 mAH battery with Qi wireless charging technology.
It has enough power to provide up to 3 charges a day, dependent upon the phone.
Qi wireless allows any Qi-enabled smartphone (most of today’s latest models) to charge a phone without a charging cable.
Just turn on the ION Wireless GO power bank, place a Qi-enabled phone on top and the phone begins charging.
For added convenience, the power bank comes with an USB port and cable to charge other phones or tablets simultaneously.
The iON Wireless Go Power Bank’s LED display shows you how much battery power it has left.
The iOttie iON Wireless Go Power Bank is available from Amazon for $39.95 with free shipping.
5. EGGTRONIC Sirius 65W GaN Charger
Navitas created Gallium Nitride (GaN) semiconductor next-generation technology made for chargers that enables 3 times more power and can run 20 times faster than older silicon chargers.
This means you can now charge your devices, including your laptops A LOT faster than ever before.
Navitas sells its GaN semiconductor to other companies, many of which are introducing their GaN chargers right now.
The EGGTRONIC Sirius 65 GaN Charger is one of them, and in fact, one of the fastest and smallest chargers on the market.
It has a powerful 65 Watts charge, is pocket-sized, and features foldable prongs to make it even smaller.
The EGGTRONIC Sirius 65 GaN Charger is powerful enough to charge a USB Type-C laptop, meaning you can throw your laptop’s accompanying charger brick away and travel lighter.
Perfect for laptops, smartphones, laptops, drones, Bluetooth speakers, and more and comes with a 6 ft. USB-C to USB-C cable.
We love that it plugs is flush to the wall, making it easier to plug into hard-to-reach outlets or behind furniture.
The Sirius 65W Charger is super fast and will charge your devices in a fraction of the time it takes with your current charger.
Find the EGGTRONIC Sirius 65W Charger at OfficeDepot.com in black or white for $69.99 with free shipping.
Honorable Mention – Google Chromecast
If your Valentine’s loves are Android fans or even Google Photo lovers, get them a Google Chromecast.
The Google Chromecast helps you to easily stream content from your Android phone or iPhone to your TV.
To start, plug in Google Chromecast into one of the HDMI ports on your TV and plug in its power source.
Then associate Chromecast with your Google Home app.
Supported in many everyday apps, just press the “Cast” button within an app and within a few seconds, your videos or pictures will start playing on your TV.
Stream Netflix, Spotify, YouTube, whatever your Valentine loves watch.
It works similarly with Google Slides.
Simply click the “Present” option in the top corner of your presentation, choose another screen, and select Chromecast and you will have your slides ready to present on the TV.
But my favorite use is streaming Google Photos albums to show people my latest travel pictures or pictures of the kids growing up, which is easy when you identify the names of your kids in your Google Photos.
Use Google Assistant on your phone or if you have the Google Home or Google Nest Hub to turn on a particular Netflix show or video on YouTube. It’s so convenient.
The Chromecast is sure to be one of the favorite Valentines gadgets of at least one of your loves!
Google Chromecast is available from Google in Chalk or Charcoal for $35 with free shipping.
