The HYDRA SmartBottle Bluetooth Speaker helps you get and stay hyped
When you’re looking to work out, you have to stay motivated from start to finish or you’ll just be going through the motions without any benefit. Everything from lack of sleep and improper nutrition to what clothes you’re wearing and how much water you drank that day will affect your performance. To get the most out of your pump fest, you need to make sure your body is ready and willing to deal with the stress you’re going to put it under.
Some heavy bass beats and lots of water will certainly help, which the HYDRA SmartBottle can provide. This is a multi function device that will not only act as a 20 ounce BPA free water bottle, but also a 5W Bluetooth speaker, LED light, and 4000 mAh power bank. The LED light aspect can be an emergency light, white lantern, and RGB color cycle, giving you the option to use it for mood lighting, illumination for a nighttime romp, or planking through a rainbow cycle.
On top of all that, this also has a built-in mic so you can use it as a speakerphone. No use in stopping your workout just to take a call, though the talking will add a level of difficulty. This is a new toy that will cost you $51.99, so it’s not something you’re going to want to spring for unless the gym is part of your daily routine. This comes in blue, black, grey, orange, and red, not that you’ll be able to tell either way if the colored LED is on.
Available for purchase on Amazon

This Etekcity Bluetooth Receiver Audio Adapter makes old equipment feel like new
Technology is growing at an ever-increasing rate. While this is awesome and means that there will be a lot of advances in medicine, clean energy, and farming, it also means that it’s hard to keep up with all the toys, gizmos and gadgets. Crazy as it may seem, not everyone wants to throw away all of their electronics every year and buy the newest thing on the market.
If you fall under that category and are still enjoying your old speakers that don’t connect via Bluetooth, but sometimes wish that they did, the Etekcity Bluetooth Receiver will make what is old feel like almost brand new. This gives you up to 10 hours of 4.0 Bluetooth streaming on a full charge with a range of 33 feet. You’ll be able to use this for your home theater system, car stereo, or just your normal speakers for your TV or computer.
This easily adapts through A/V, RCA, and a 3.5mm jack. It was made to be portable so it can make any speaker system you come across Bluetooth compatible. The charge time to get it to full is around 2 hours, but thankfully you can use it while it’s plugged in. Obviously though, that will increase the charging time. You’ll be looking at paying out around $19 for this little device, but that is vastly better than paying for a brand new speaker system for all of your various devices.

AirJamz – the thrill of playing music without actually playing
You can pick up a new skill at any stage in your life with enough determination. Whether that’s painting, ice skating, or playing guitar, there’s no such thing as too old or too young to start learning. Of course, if you just want the fun of jamming out with friends without actually knowing how to play an instrument, that’s where air guitar, piano, and lip syncing come into play.
If you’ve decided that you don’t ever want to learn how to play an instrument and only want to stick to playing pretend, then the AirJamz will heighten your playing-but-not-actually-playing experience. This is an app-enabled Bluetooth toy that looks like a guitar pick, and will let you rock out to over 25 songs with up to 4 players at a time. Don’t worry, even if half of your friends only have iPhones and the other half have Androids, this will play nicely with all of them.
In addition to playing air guitar, you’ll also have access to 100+ instrument, laser, and synth sounds. This was designed with sharing in mind, so you can post your best or worst performances on Instagram and Snapchat for the world to see. The only downside to this fun toy is that is costs $39.99, which is a bit much to make your air guitar seem more real. Maybe $20 fun, but not $40 fun. That being said, no price tag is too high if you’re really dedicated to the craft.
