Basically a small portable charger for any of your mobile devices. Has a bunch of wall & device adapters. $15-30. Seems like it could come in handy in remote areas. ie Mexico.

If you look at this thing and think, “I have absolutely no use for that,” you are probably right. But if you are like me and think, “That might come in handy every once in a while,” you might just find it something you don’t want to do without once you get used to it.

The picture here has the optional "Solar panel" attachment!

Ok, openly mock me, I deserve it. But, consider yourself forewarned, for I am well versed in the art of Drunken Monkey. ...

from wikipedia..

Description and Techniques

The form is short and simple, consisting of a few dozen or so movements. Much of the moves are performed at a low ground level, with rolling, tumbling and falling techniques. There are also many unusual grappling and blocking techniques. The higher level attacks include eye pokes and throat hits, as well as blocks and punches (with punching being exceptional, as monkeys generally do not attack with their fists). There are also many middle attacks such as kicks aimed to the stomach area, and lower attacks to the lower abdomen, groin and legs.

* The "Monkey-Hands" Technique: Relaxed hand strikes with the palm facing downward and fingers drooping towards the ground, used to deflect hand strikes and kicks, and also to strike with the fingers towards the throat and eyes.
* The "Monkey-Claws" Technique: This attack is basically a strike with the palm facing forward and hitting with the fingers and striking downward, like any animal's clawing motion. It is used to hit the face and eyes, and can also be used to grapple the opponent's wrist.
* Low Kicks and Ground Kicks: There are many kicks in Drunken Monkey, primarily aimed at the lower portions of the body (legs, groin, abdomen) and executed from a low position or from lying on the ground.

This thread took a wrong turn right from the start

"spike, how come you did so poor on your midterm? Didn't you study?"
"not really, I was busy photoshopping a king kong poster to make it look as if he'd fling poo instead"

You'll need this upgrade for your "Power Monkey" to protect the device and make sure no one steals it...

Especially when parking at SI during fishing season... Wink
