Giz Wiz Show #1975, Thursday February 15, 2024
On this week’s show we celebrate our 18th Anniversary of The Giz Wiz!!
The first Giz Wiz Show – called The Daily Giz Wiz back then – was February 20th 2006! If it wasn’t for our loyal supporters, the Giz Wiz Show would be gone. If you’d like to support OMGchad & DickDe in our independent venture (we have zero ads) just click the Patreon link at the top of our show web page. There’s a PayPal link there too. Thank you! www.gizwiz.tv.
Is this gadget really Eggcelent?
Actually it’s called IncrediEGG, and we put it to the test! The company says it cooks perfect eggs in one minute, but that time will vary depending on how many eggs you make (up to four at a time) and the power of your microwave. Surprisingly, it is quick and easy as you’ll see on this week’s show. The device is said to be made of food safe plastic and be top rack dishwasher safe. You can cook the eggs without oil or butter. And you add things like bacon bits to make it tastier. I didn’t find the clean-crack egg shell cracker and yolk separator all that convenient, but I only cracked eggs once. I paid $6.99 for mine on Amazon and I’d if you need eggs cooked fast, this does do the job. At least it did for me.

A Chad SUPER Extra!
Chad did it! And he’s thrilled he did!
He bought the Apple Vision Pro.
I know very little about this gadget, which includes the fact that it cost $3500! So I’ll just post a photo of Chat wearing his and you can watch his very thorough review on this week’s show. They do seem amazing if you’re into high tech.

Do you do close-up work or craft projects?
You may just need this Rechargeable Magnifying Glasses w/ LEDs Kit.
Dilzekui isn’t a name that rolls off the tongue, but their magnifying glasses kit is easy to use. It comes with 4 detachable lenses, which are made of acrylic resin material. You use the lens that best fits your close up work project. Pick from 1.5X, 2.5X, 3.5X, and 5X magnification. The glasses frame with nose bracket is light weight and comfortable to wear. It comes with a headband you can also add if you like. That could help prevent the glasses from sliding off if you’re working at a weird angle. You can adjust the 3 LED headlight direction too, but it only has two positions. There’s also a 4-segment battery charge indicator on the side of the glasses. I like this kit a lot. And yes, it recharges via convenient USB-C. Under $25.

Chad’s Crappy Corner
For his February theme loyal Patreons picked “Cheap Bathroom Gadgets”!
Chad’s 3rd Cheap Bathroom Gadget is the LiftyLoo Toilet Seat Handle
This is a pretty clever gadget. The company says it’s made with recycled ocean plastic, but Chad wondered how they collected that stuff! It’s designed to encourage everyone to lift and lower the toilet seat easily. You’ll see Chad install it on one his toilets on this week’s show. The company says it fits most toilet seats and stays attached with a durable adhesive. They also say it’s great for potty training! People in the chatroom said it also be helpful for folks with certain limited abilities. Chad bought a set of two with two different 3M adhesive pads for under $12 on Amazon. He bought the blue pattern version, but said there’s also a plain white version available too.

Dick’s Gadget Warehouse
Our email is from Michael Prine who has sent us a fun warehouse video before. He writes:
Hi Dick & Chad:
I initially bought this in 2019 for about $200 when it was just the generator without the flash light.
I mainly use it for demo purposes and hand crank it but you could attach it to a board and use your feet to drive it. Here is the link to my video.
