Our viewer video this week is a fan sending in a Gadget Warehouse video for a first time.
Hi guys!
My name is LaNaya White and I have a video about the Arctic Air.
I know you reviewed it already but I’m hoping you’ll give it a second chance.
Thanks! LaNaya
From The Giz Wiz: There’s now the Arctic Air Ultra with twice the cooling power and it’s under $40. (Most of my original objection to these devices was advertising them as “air conditioners” which made people think they were more like a traditional window air conditioners. And charging $90 or so for them. Some vendors still do that. Now that they’re twice as powerful and under $40 and people understand better that they’re for close-up, small area cooling, I’m glad folks like LaNaya are getting useful results.

We’d love to include your video in an upcoming Giz Wiz Show! Here’s what we’re looking for! Your home shot video – 2 to 3 minutes long, in any of the following categories:
I bought a piece of crap: Did you buy something you ended up hating? We won’t get you a refund, but we might be able to give a platform to vent your disappointment. Remember, “family friendly” language applies.
–
I invented this! Did you invent something? (Or did a friend or relative invent something.) We can’t market it for you, but we can help get the word out. Show us what it is, and how it works. Even if it’s a prototype, you can get our (and the audience) reactions. No professional ads please.
–
My Gadget Warehouse: Okay, so you don’t have a warehouse. It doesn’t matter. Just tell us about your favorite old gadget(s). When and where you bought it, and why you’re still hanging on to it.
–
My Favorite Gadget (favorite old, or favorite new): Show us what it is, tell us what it does and why you love, or loved it! It can be a new gadget you just bought too.
–
Post them on YouTube and send us the link! We’ll do the rest. (Or possibly nothing, but that’s unlikely.) Remember, videos should be just 2 to 3 minutes long! Low production value is fine, but we should be able to hear you and see you! If we select and show your video on The Giz Wiz you’ll earn a tiny amount of fame (hopefully). And if you live in the US, you’ll also get an autographed 38+ year old Alfred E. Neuman picture and a MAD surprise (most likely the current issue of MAD.) But no matter where you live outside of US, I can autograph an Alfred E. Neuman photo to you, scan it & email you a high res copy if we show your video. Just print it out, frame it, or just hang it up and no one will know it’s a copy. We’ve tested it out and fans say they look terrific! If you submitting warehouse videos for a second, third time, etc., you’ll get the current issue of MAD as a thank you.
All show submissions go to mail@gizwiz.tv

Email of the week:
Clarifications on the ELF ebike via Shane Bowling
Hey Dick and Chad I watched the warehouse video I noticed the audio didn’t come through well. I did mention in the video that Organic Transit is in the middle of bankruptcy I hope they find someone to buy their assets and continue making the bike. I have cerebral palsy and low vision the elf is a great alternative mode of transportation for people who can’t quite pass their eye tests With the elf, you can either use the electric motor or pedal it. If you pedal while using the motor it’s less wear and tear on the battery. The top speed of the bike is 20 miles an hour. I’ve had this e-bike for a couple of years now. It’s allowed me to have more independent for example getting to work by myself in the winter months and getting groceries.
I hope I explained what the elf is about in this email better then I did in the video. Thank you for using my video. Thank you for bringing awesome gadgets each and every week!
Seriously, Shane Bowling
