Kuchofuku is making "Personal Air Conditioning" fashionable for body and home. The $399 5.3 pound bed has two fans to circulate cool air underneath you. After a cool and restful sleep you can arise to put on the air conditioned shirt.

The button-up has an integrated fan that is purportedly powered via USB, but is almost half the price of the bed at $159 each. No washing instructions either.

I live with two women, and let me tell you they take the LONGEST showers in the history of mankind. Well, not really, but you get the picture. But here’s a device that my home definitely needs. It’s called the Shower Timer. This gizmo is a beauty, it can be programmed between 1 and 12 minutes and it gives a visual countdown in both minutes and seconds, ensuring you pick up time management skills while lathering your hair with shampoo.

And on top of that, just in case your shower is STILL running long, an audible alert will sound when the sands of time run out for added emphasis. Don’t be turned off by the $340 price tag though, as the Shower Timer will probably pay itself off within a year when water usage is budgeted properly. After all, it also takes power to heat up your shower, so the longer you remain in there, the higher your power bill would be.

Awesome.
