Remote Finder Summons Lost Electronics By Whistle

10:29AM June 5, 2008 | Brian Lam

I’d never stick one of these clunky beeping remote finder devices on any remote I gave a damn about. But they are triggered by the tone of the included whistle, which gives you and your clicker a relationship not unlike Lassie and Timmy. Very cool, until you lose the whistle. US$18. Bonus: They’ve got a keychain version with a flashlight and voice recorder, too. [1ofakind via Crunchgear]

Sava-O Baby Head Whistle Necklace Disturbs for Life

Every once in a while our RSS reader shows us something so vile that our eyes burn in their sockets…and then we just need to show you. The Sava-O is an innocent whistle trapped in the plastic prison of a scary, devil-spawn baby. When brave users blow into the device, the baby’s head pops up and its mouth opens, shrieking/cursing your enemies through the power of your lungs/the genetic modification of Satan’s DNA.

The only thing more frightening than the Sava-O may be the designers who created the whistle…or their children after which it was modeled. We’ll actually sleep better not knowing, and canceling all former plans to spawn offspring. $6 [Product Page via tfts] More »
