The Victor Multi-Kill electronic Mouse Trap seeks to "terminate" your rodent infestation by the power of 10. The trap features a "Shock N’ Drop" chamber that delivers a high-voltage jolt to the mouse, killing it within 3 seconds. The chamber then swivels, dropping the mouse carcass into the chamber of death that can hold up to 10 mouse carcasses before you need to empty it.

Batteries are included with purchase and are said to be good for 150 "death" charges before needing replacement. I feel sorry for mouse #151 who gets delivered a half-deadly shock.

This 100% kill rate trap costs $99.99 and is currently on backorder.

Tesla has revealed a finalized photo of their 4-door, all-electric Model S sports sedan, shown above. The car was designed completely by Tesla and will get around 240 miles per charge. It will also go from zero to sixty in approximately six seconds. The Model S will be released sometime in 2010 and will cost about $60,000.

Electric Motorsport has released the fairly inexpensive GPR-S e-motorcycle. They’ve definitely taken a mass market approach with the bike. It boasts a 60-70 MPH top speed and a 35-60 mile range. This makes it great for commuter rides, and not so great to visit your grandmother three states away. It can charge in about four hours, or 1.5 hours if you use an optional speed charger.

The GPR-S is also modular in fashion, meaning you can plug and play other devices into the bike as they become available. Kind of cool. Like an Apple bike.

The company has sold 25 so far but they are currently available and as stated before, only a paltry $8,000. What are you waiting for? The Sturgis Rally is coming up.

Australia, location for the classic film "Kangaroo Jack", is building over 600,000 electric car stations. This gigantic ongoing infrastructure project won’t be done until 2012, at which time Australia will point and laugh at us Americans as we wait angrily at ever-increasing gas lines. Don’t worry, we’ll deserve it.

Most of the stations will be spread out to Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. A paltry 150 stations will be spread out to outlying areas of the country. The outback may produce great steaks, but your car will run out of juice there.

There will also be battery swap stations scattered about, where drivers can trade junked juice for the new stuff.

This is pretty great news for the land downunder. However, it’s not all rosy. The government is suggesting contracts to use the stations be instituted. These contracts resemble cell phone plans. Don’t they know not to make Australians angry? Come on, we’ve all seen Crocodile Dundee 2 haven’t we?

It’s easy to imagine electric Honda Civics or Chevy Malibus, but electricity powering the creme de la creme of automobiles? A bit harder to imagine. Not for long, says Rolls Royce CEO Tom Purves. The bigwig has been considering making some batteries very, very happy by including them in the Phantom line. He says "many of its customers do small mileages exclusively in the city," and for these customers, "an electric Rolls-Royce would be ideal."

He didn’t give a release date or price but don’t worry, the latter is probably out of your reach. If it’s not, shoot me an email. I have a business proposition I’d like to go over with you. (Cue evil laugh.)
