The Best Tech Under $50 - January 2016

2016-01-26
hey guys johnathan here it's 2016 and I have yet to do an episode of the best tech under 50 so let's fix that first up is hands-down not only one of the coolest ways to store your ps4 controllers but also to charge them as well this is the PDP energizer which is also available for the xbox one but in this case I will be showcasing the PlayStation version what it is is a relatively compact standard doesn't take up ton of space and will accommodate two controllers they're charged via USB and what I really like about this is the LED indicators will let you know once each controller is fully charged so not only this is a great way to add some aesthetic points to your setup it's also extremely functional with this you're not going to leave your controller god-knows-where go to pick it up to play and the damn thing is dead now on top of that not only is this under 50 bucks right now it is currently under 30 following that in my opinion is one of the best values as far as headphones go period these are the grado de Gredos weird name fantastic sound it was awesome here's even though this particular model is 49 bucks they're using the exact same driver as their $80 SR 60 II headphones the obvious difference here is design they almost mimic more of a fitness style headphone where they go behind the head and this is really done for comfort for looks and also for those who maybe want to wear a pair of headphones not mess up their hair for work but also want something a little more than in-ear headphones now if you've never heard of greater they're not trying to be flashy I don't spend a ton of money on advertising or packaging but the end result is some of the best sounding headphones for the money next up is something that very well may have kicked off an addiction for myself and this is the bb-8 3d wall light so what it is is a three dimensional bb-8 character powered by three double A batteries and where the magic happens is when it's paired with the included wall sticker that not only helps you mount it properly but also gives us really badass look that bb-8 has smashed through your wall initially I was a little bit skeptical that it might look a bit cheesy but after getting it up and on the wall it looks freakin awesome now with this there are three modes off on and also a timed mode that way you are not burning through those batteries so if you're a huge Star Wars fan you were constantly looking to add your collection this is an awesome piece of tech that is also extremely visually satisfying following that is the etekcity LED nightlight not the nightlight you remember as a kid where you were scared of the dark this is something extremely practical and makes you think to yourself I could probably use that now the reason I included this in tech under 50 is I picked up a 2-pack for just under 30 bucks but if you want to buy one of these solo you can grab one for about 15 now not only does this work as a nightlight where the entire body glows but it will also double as a flashlight it comes with a dock that will not only charge but also essentially allow it to function like a traditional nightlight at in this mode you can actually set it up to where it will go off when it senses motion if you want to pull it off a dock you have hours of battery life and that's going to allow you to not only use it as a traditional flashlight but really just a super handy convenient source of light that you can move just about anywhere last up is something that you more than likely notice throughout this video and if you were wondering how exactly I got my macbook to look like that this is the brand new villain series from slick wraps and justin mauler now this is something I've been extremely excited to share with you guys I got a chance to work closely with Justin it was slick wraps to kind of bring his arts into something that I would personally rock on my own MacBook and I think the end result is amazing this is Justin's chaos clown and I'm sure you've seen it on shirts on phones but there's something about it on a MacBook that makes it extra special I've been asked countless times where I took my macbook to get customized and when I tell them it's something you can do yourself for under 50 bucks there's a bit of mind blowing going on this is part of a handful of designs that are exclusive to the brand new villain series release and on top of that if you happen to miss it there's the hero series the galactic series which includes quite possibly one of my favorite designs on a macbook ever and yeah if you want a macbook you want to customize it without dropping a ton of cash this is the way to go hopefully you guys enjoyed the video if you did and you are feel like being awesome make sure to go
