Fresh from this year’s Outdoor Retailer expo comes SteriPEN’s new Sidewinder portable water purifier. You can leave the batteries at home on your next trip, as the Sidewinder only needs a good cranking to power its germ-killing UV bulb. More »
I don’t know how bad the pollution gets in your house, but I’m willing to bet a few high-school students could do with a visual reminder that it’s time to put the rubbish out. Coway’s AP-1008 is that reminder. More »

Famed maker of awesome Takara Tomy’s latest bundle of cool is a super cute air filter for babies. It’s outfitted with an antibacterial filter and Sharp’s “decontamination ion” purification tech (my AC in Japan actually had this too) so your offspring don’t inhale all the nasty, germ-y stuff floating around your house. It’s about $150 (17,640 yen), so it’s kind of pricey, but it’s smaller (115x80x140mm) and definitely packs in more cute per square inch than most air filters. [Fuji Sankei via Tokyo Mango] More »
Is your air too dirty to merely filter? Then check out the Antibac2k. This little rotating sphere one-ups all of the gigantic air filtration systems in the US by proactively sending out an air filtration mist that rids your room of bacteria and dust. Think of it as Purel for the air. And if that’s not enough, the thing looks like a space age spinning disco ball full of LED goodness. [Product Page via Tokyo Mango]
