water is one of the world's most fundamental elements it makes them about 70% of the Earth's surface and a similar percentage of our bodies each day we have an intimate interaction with water for most of us this starts with our showers our showers are deeply personal our long time to wake up to think to rejuvenate to unwind at Nebbia we set out to see if we can make this important part of our daily rituals better in every way we started with the knees Carlos one of our co-founders ran a large Fitness Club company and was deeply concerned about the high use of water together with his father Emilio they search for a solution it turns out showers are one of the highest wasters of water and there hasn't been any meaningful innovation over a century nearly five years later dozens of prototypes built we've had 500 people try it and now we think we've built something pretty special imagine being totally embraced by water from the moment you step into your shower imagine an experience with water so moving you never want to step out your skin feels soft hydrated maybe is about experiencing water in a way that you never have before to innovate on the shower experience we had to look outside of the current industry and approach the engineering problem from a completely new angle the last half century of nozzle technology has completely changed what we can do with droplet sizes and distributions however this technology has only been applied to very specialized fields like rocket engines and medical devices we use these same tools and technology to develop Nebbia what we do is atomized streams of water into millions of tiny droplets by doing this we can achieve 10 times the surface area of water compared to a regular shower while using a fraction of the volume I just got out of my first neviah shower it was a total unique experience and I loved it I was getting hit with these little water droplets I loved the feeling all the droplets hitting your skin it's like you're being enveloped by water and as an Airbnb host there are a lot of showers going on in my place and this is important you know this thing is it not only make the experience better for my guests but it's a few money I felt great it was a really fun comfortable experience the whole thing just felt awesome I could take that shower every day we put nebula to the test on average Americans take about eight minutes to shower for the normal shower that's over 20 gallons of water with an obeah it's only six that's 70% less what we built Nebbia to be easy to install you simply unscrew your existing shower and screw on Nebbia with a wrench some plumbers tape and included adhesive you don't have to call the plumber or break tile in addition Nivea slides up and down a couple of feet pivots at an angle and includes a portable wand which you can position wherever you choose mnemba provides a totally new and refreshing shower experience we've partnered with world-class design firm box clever to create a design that is both beautiful and intuitive yet offers a totally new degree of adjustability on top of that the water and energy savings just makes sense we still have to build a company that will transform the way we interact with water over the course of the next few decades we've assembled a team thermal fluids experts to solve some of the difficult engineering challenges that have prevented innovation in showers for a long time and finally we're ready to bring navi to the world and we've decided to start with you the Kickstarter community our us-based manufacturers are ready to go and all we need is your initial support thank you Kickstarter introducing new blade a revolution in toilet cleaning technology hi I'm here to tell you about an invention that will revolutionize a chore that we all love to heat cleaning the toilet recognized this the classic toilet brush design has remained unchanged for decades the sad fact is it's completely unfit for purpose the bristles clog up very easily meaning they're extremely unhygienic and hard to clean they retain water meaning they drip everywhere and they're also extremely inefficient you have to scrub back and forth and they never clean under the room two years ago I decided to do something about it in 2013 Gary brought together a team of product designers engineers and material specialists and went into the lab to work on a new product that would help change the way that toilets are cleaned forever with its patented swipe clean technology the silicon blades follow the contours of the toilet ball and reach under the rim with ease swiping the surface clean a silver based additive kills germs both during and after cleaning and helps cut down bleach use the blades do not get clogged up like bristles and have a hydrophobic coating that sheds water and dries quickly a hollow-point head feature also helps clear blockages air flows freely through the holder to quickly evaporate any remaining moisture the let's look at how Lou blade helps overcome the main failings of the toilet brush the bristles of a toilet brush quickly become clocked which is hard to dislodge especially after it has dried with Lou blade the smooth flat surfaces are easily kept clean and clear with just a gentle shake after shaking look how much potentially germ filled and smelly water is still contained in the brush Lou glades hydrophobic coating ensures that all water is almost immediately removed the bristles of a brush only touch part of the surface which is why you need to scrub back and forth to get things clean with continuous contact Lou blade swipes the surface clean in a single pass so there you have it we have a very strong team a great product manufacturing channels are ready and we can be shipping by early December we just need your help to raise funds so that tooling can be made and manufacturing again helped us to take clinic to the edge introducing Lou blade a revolution in toilet cleaning technology take cleaning to the edge shaving us we know it is far from perfect it causes razor burn ingrown hair cuts bleeding and even infection and if you have sensitive skin or a skin condition it's even more difficult the u.s. alone throws out two billion raises a year most can't be recycled because they pose a health risk so they end up in garbage dumps there must be a better way can we create the eraser that does not cause irritation a razor that shaves smoother chrome a razor that helps reduce waste this is why we created the score appraiser once working on lasers for cosmetic and medical purposes I wondered could I put this technology to better use I wanted something that would benefit every single one of us shaving what's the obvious answer the industry has been looking for a laser shaver for home use but discovering a viable technology has eluded everyone until now wavelengths of light have been to stop at the cut through dark hair but not light or gray hair we wanted a laser that could cut all hair many prototypes were built and after years of experimentation we had found exactly what we were looking for we identified molecules in the hair that absorb a particular wavelength these are called chromatophores this chroma forests are the only continuous structure in the hair they're shared by every human regardless of age gender and for race the scalp razor is for everyone to use and it works great on any area this is how it works a traditional razor cuts the hair shaft at an angle this is what causes your skin to fill run when the scalp reason makes contact the laser melts through the hair shot completely level to the surface of the skin this leaves a smoother softer finish the last longer to the touch we really need your support to put the scarf razor into production we have preliminary agreements with manufacturers we require capital to getting orders we've spent many years developing this razor because we believe after 5000 years of using the same technology it's time to make shaving easier safer and greener help us bring shaving into the 21st century we wake up each morning to a brand new day a day of balance and wellness we nourish our body with healthy foods we physically stretch our bodies in hopes of stretching our minds everything we do goes back to our well being but there is one piece we often tend to neglect from the wellness puzzle introducing turbo a simple and effective addition to your daily routine before the 19th century toilets were non-existent people used to squat to release two thirds of the world actually still do and for good reason as we adopted the toilet into our lives we unknowingly added tension and straining during bowel movements studies have shown us the perpendicular posture brought on by the toilet creates a kink in the colon which makes it difficult to go it also makes us susceptible to a number of other health issues by elevating your feet that kink disappears your muscles are able to relax and your colon is open for quick and efficient release and that's why we invented turbo turbo is an elegant yet affordable solution that makes a great addition to any bathroom it's sleek design allows for flexibility and comfort the unique ramp design makes using turbo easier for any person of any size the lower toe area allows you to easily load your feet then you can position your feet forward or backward on the ramp to adjust to a squat that's just right for you and with turbo squatting is only the beginning turbo comes with interchangeable massage rollers to further increase your comfort on the toilet not only does it feel good but it can help with constipation too your feet have pressure points that can stimulate your colon when it's time to Oh massaging with turbo also helps with blood circulation which can improve your energy levels to get you through the day we have come a long way and we are almost there the only thing missing is your support this is Eva drop Eva drop is the first smart shower that saves water to use Eva drop all you do is take a normal shower you turn on your water and it instantly powers up and begins working Eva drop uses its internal heat sensor to track the moment the water hits your desired temperature and cuts the water flow no more wasted water while you're away from your shower when you're ready to get in just press the button and the water flow returns at the perfect temperature using a unique sensor system Eva drop adjusts the water flow based off of what you are doing and where you are in your shower Eva drop is smart it knows when you need water and when you don't when you are directly underneath the showerhead perhaps rinsing your hair Eva drop sets your water flow to 100% giving you a strong flowing shower right when you need it when you step away from the shower to apply soap or shampoo Eva drop lowers the flow while still keeping you comfortable and warm Eva drop also senses when you are furthest away from your shower doing things like shaving your legs and reduces the water flow even more it's simple and automatic Eva drops universal design is easily installed between your shower and the wall allowing you to continue to use your favorite showerhead with the Heba drop mobile app you are able to set goals for shower lengths and Eva drop reminds you when you are getting close or taking too long giving you even more ways to save water the app even tracks your water usage so that you can compare with others learn trends and adjust your habits Eva drop a smarter way to shower
