Show #1948 Week of August 10th 2023
AMAZING! We’ve in year 18 of The Giz Wiz Show!
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.

It’s Another Neck Fan, But With Some Nice New Features!
The Caiitfarry Bladeless Neck Fan offers LED Lights & an LCD Display! Now the description says: “It has 3 adjustable wind speeds and can display the current gear and power.” It does show 1, 2 or 3 on the digital display to match the fan speed, but there is not a % readout of the battery power which I thought the description meant. What happens, is when the battery is too low, it just flashes the fan speed digit to remind you to charge the battery. But it does have a total of 7 LED lights and 4 modes. At night, if you wearing this walking or jogging, you will be seen! Also useful is the silicone double hose that fits around your neck. It’s flexible enough to help adjust the airflow direction and give you a more custom fit then the previous hard plastic neckbands. The one I bought has a built-in 4000mAh battery and I think It runs quite a bit quieter than other neck fans I’ve used. I paid almost $30, but it’s been on and off sale all this week. NOTE: It was half price on 812/23 — just $14.99! But it can go back up at any time.

The Double Bubble Machine Gun Blaster with LED Lights!
Whoa! We’ve done a lot of bubble machines on the Giz Wiz, but this tops the list! It has 2 Motors, 2 Fans and 18 Spinning Wands. The company says it can generate 10,000+ Bubbles a minute. I don’t know who counted them, but as you’ll see on this week’s show, this machine can pump out the bubbles! What’s really great is that the bubble solution jar connects directly inside the machine, so there’s a constant supply when you pull the trigger. Has a rechargeable battery and cable to recharge it. There’s also four bottles of bubble solution in the package. Kids will love this! Adults too! It’s brightly colored and has flashing LED lights to add even more fun to your bubbles! MSRP: $34.99

Meet The Magicteam Sound Machine White Noise Machine with 20 Non Looping Natural Soothing Sounds
I love sleep sound machines and I didn’t need another one. But when I saw more than 51,000 reviews on Amazon with a 4.5 Star rating, I thought I better check it out. Also I read features “Non-Looping Sleep Sounds” which is what you want. Sounds include: White noise ,brown noise, pink noise, blue noise, fan, brook, rain, ocean, birds, bonfire and train. You do have to cycle through them all to find the one you want. But a nice feature of this device is once you find what you want, there’s a sound, volume & timer memory for next time you use it. You can set the off time for 1 hour, 2 hours,3 hours,4 hours, 5 hours or continuous play. The device is powered by AC or USB, there is no internal battery. And the price is decent, although it keeps changing quickly. But it’s usually between $18 & $22. As of 8/11/23 it was $20.99.

Chad’s Crappy Corner
Chad polled our loyal Patreons and they voted on his new theme for August. That winning theme is “Cheap Gadgets As Seen On Shark Tank”.
Chad’s 2nd Cheap Gadget As Seen On Shark Tank is FurZapper Pet Hair Remover for Laundry
From Amazon: FurZapper is a non-toxic, re-usable, and effective pet hair remover tool made in the USA, that goes into your washer and dryer to gently remove pet fur, hair, dander, lint, and more from your clothing, pet bed, jackets, and blankets. Includes 2 FurZappers.
And Chad’s take: Having four pets Chad had a real use for this product! How did it work? On this week’s show you’ll see how the Sharks backed the project and then Chad does a complete wash and dry demo. You’ll see his shirt before and after using FurZapper and you can decide for yourself. MSRP: $9.99. You can buy them in sets of 2,4 and 6.

Dick’s Gadget Warehouse
Our Gadget Warehouse Video Submission email this week is from Diana who writes:
Hi Dick and Chad,
Been meaning to make a video for you about this item for a long time. Don’t think I’ve seen it on your show. I’m a little behind on videos though. It’s one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. Forgot to mention the name of the product in my video. It’s called Robo Twist jar opener. There’s a bit of an oops in the video you’ll see however I couldn’t redo it because once the jar was open that’s it and I didn’t have another jar to open. Normally I hover my hand above the gadget. I figured the video was still good enough to send.
Anyway thanks for all these years of a great show. I’ve been watching since Chad took over for Leo. And I’m a long time patreon supporter.
