The LED sunrise clock is two products in one. Firstly it is an alarm clock that wakes you by simulating the rising sun. Fifteen minutes before your chosen alarm time, the bottom row of LED’s switch on, the rest of the LED’s follow gradually row by row to imitate a natural sunrise. But don’t worry it has a audible snooze alarm as a fail safe back-up.
Secondly it is a light-therapy pad for sufferers of S.A.D.. The LED’s can all be switched on to produce 5,000 lux of light that simulates natural daylight (a standard lightbulb produces 500 lux). So this means sufferers of S.A.D. or jet lag can benefit from light therapy wherever they are.
Finished in brushed stainless steel.
Costs £59.95

If you ever leave your keys under a doormat or plant pot then you should be aware that is the first place a thief will look. Even those fake stash rocks no longer fool the career criminal.
The key safe padlock offers the perfect secure location for leaving keys and other small items.
As well as being used as a standard padlock it can also hold several keys up to 7cm long. Seperate combinations operate the shackle and key compartment and both can be changed to your own choice of 10,000 combinations.
Comprises a hardened steel shackle, chrome dials, zinc cast body and dust proof rubber cover.

Lose fewer balls, speed up the pace of play, spend less on replacement balls and even add other golfers’ lost balls to your collection. Developed by scientists in America, the Ballfinder uses a proprietary digital imaging technology to locate the white surface of a golf ball in any natural setting.
Its 3.2 megapixal imager scans pixel by pixel in nanoseconds, almost instantly locating golf balls at a range of up to 35′ when only as few as 3 dimples of the ball are visible to the naked eye - that’s just 1% of its surface! A vibro-buzz then confirms it has found a ball and a line of LED lights on the LCD screen indicate the direction.
Backed by Nick Faldo and other golf professionals. Comes with instructional DVD featuring useful hints and tips from Nick Faldo, batteries and a carry clip for attaching to golf bag or belt.
I’m sure there are other uses for this device, besides finding golf balls, although I’m not sure what.
Costs £149.95

Finally something for the guys. The beer machine is your own self contained mirco brewery for brewing 100% natural and chemical-free beer at home.
This modern brewing unit is a far cry from the bell jar and tube affairs that you may remember from yesteryear. It boosts a fast brew time of between seven and ten days. It comes complete with everything you need to make your first home brew.
Simply pour the powder mix into the cask, add water and the supplied yeast, the seal and put in a warm place and refrigerate after five days. The beer machine will brew, ferment and carbonate for you.
Serve directly from the fridge with the supplied pub style tap.
A great little invention as the cost of pub drinking increases and our traditional liberties are banned (you know what I mean).
Costs £99.95
