Buffalito by BuffaloGrid │A Smart Lamp and Power Bank
Introducing BuffaloGrid’s “Get Power, Give Power” campaign and Help Us Bring Power to the Next Billion
BuffaloGrid presents the Buffalito, a multi-purpose lighting and mobile charging device.
Each Buffalito sold supports BuffaloGrid's "Get Power, Give Power" campaign to raise awareness of the global power problem and to play our part in solving it.
Each Buffalito sold will help support our work providing power to the 1 Billion people worldwide who lack reliable access to grid power. This helps to transform lives as people are now able to charge their cell phones so they can stay connected, and light their homes, enabling them to work and read late into the night.
Charge the Buffalito in just 50 minutes and it provides enough power to completely refill a smartphone battery, while still working as a light for hours.
BuffaloGrid’s mission is to remove internet adoption barriers by providing free power to charge mobile devices and digital services to connect the Next Billion.
The Buffalito is designed to act as a portable and cost-effective way for millions of people to transport and store electricity. It was created to compliment our solar-powered BuffaloGrid Hub. The Hub is a solar-powered charging station designed to sit in the centre of a village in a shop or public building where people can charge multiple phones and power banks at once.
The Buffalito packs a LOT of features into its small size. Whether living in a busy, modern city, or in a rural village, the Buffalito has a use for you!

Snowl is a wearable ring-shaped device that brings 3D range of motion to devices that are traditionally 2D such as touch screens and computer mice. With Snowl, you can experience precision control over your favorite devices through three motion tracking modes: Air Mouse mode, Gesture Mouse mode Joystick Mouse mode.
#Snowl has the functionality of a mouse and a touchpad for Human Interface, useful for presentations through a Gesture Interface and acts as a VR controller through a Virtual interface. All of these interfaces are combined into one small device.
On its surface, Teno is a beautifully crafted bowl sculpture made from natural sand. When cracked open, it comes alive; revealing soft, warm light that you can adjust with a simple tap. When fully open, it's a powerful speaker, releasing a rich sound that you control through touch. Your music will never sound — or look — better.
A new aesthetic
Have you ever felt the urge to hide your portable speaker because it looks too tech-y? From the start, we designed Teno with an entirely different look and feel in mind: a celebration of the perfection in the imperfect. The world doesn’t need any more sleek plastic surfaces.
High-quality sound
Beauty only goes so far. We equipped Teno with a powerful 45mm full-range driver that delivers deep bass and crystal-clear treble… all from an unseen source, emanating almost magically with the soft glow of this unusual bowl sculpture.
Intuitive and unique design
Teno is designed to delight. You crack it open to switch it on. It comes alive with intuitive finger gestures. Piece it back together to turn it off.
Tactile and durable
The textured natural sand on the outside feels like you’re holding a piece of nature in your hands, while the hard inner shell provides the durability and precision that its technology requires.
Defies obsolescence
Teno is designed to be timeless. And unlike so many products marketed today, it develops the kind of patina that only makes it more beautiful over the years.
Portable
At 5” in diameter, Teno fits neatly in the palm of your hand. It’s small enough to be portable but substantial enough to feel solid.
Far from being another distracting piece of technology, Teno is for connecting with yourself and with your environment. Hold it in your hands and its vibrations impart a meditative feel — we like to think of it as modern interpretation of a sound bowl. Its radiant light creates the kind of calming atmosphere we could all use a little more of.
Mobile by Peak Design: Make your phone a better tool.
A gorgeous system of phone cases, mounts, and accessories that brilliantly adapt your phone to every aspect of your life.
Mobile by Peak Design: Make your phone a better tool.
A gorgeous system of phone cases, mounts, and accessories that brilliantly adapt your phone to every aspect of your life.
We're Peak Design.
We design products with a singular goal: Make the best things. Crowdfunding keeps us free of outside investment and lets us make things that are truly radical. This is our 10th Kickstarter. This is Mobile.
Mobile by Peak Design is an ecosystem of mounts, cases, accessories, and chargers designed to better integrate your phone with your life. They’re made for any phone, and also compatible with Apple’s new MagSafe® system. (See faq for compatibility details).
We are actively designing and testing all of these products as we get closer to kicking off production. Like any Peak Design Kickstarter campaign, backing means taking a leap of faith with us to get some pretty radical products earlier and cheaper than anywhere else. It means coming along for the ride.
Interface your phone with your life. SlimLink is ultra-strong, low-profile, and absolutely delightful to use. It has dual locking mechanisms: a soft lock made possible by a MagSafe-compatible magnetic array embedded in our cases and mounts, and for mounts being used in more demanding applications, a hard lock made possible by a zirconia ceramic insert that interfaces with mechanical claws on our most rugged mounts. No other phone mounting system has the same combination of slimness, ease, ruggedness, and looks.
We’re tired of clunky, unattractive mobile accessories. So, we created products that look and feel beautiful and are genuinely fun to use. You’ll be thrilled to integrate them into your life.
Safe and secure means bulky and cumbersome, right? Wrong. Slimlink packs a rigidly secure hard locking mounting system into a wildly shallow stack height (2.4mm!). This allowed us to create amazingly slim cases, mounts, and accessories that are truly rugged enough for any activity.
The world is awash in throw-away phone gadgets. Mobile by Peak Design is fundamentally different: each product is built from premium materials, individually serialized and guaranteed for life.
To be able to use all of the Peak Design mounts and accessories, you must have either a Peak Design Everyday Case or Universal Adapter. To use just our soft-locking products, you can use our case or adapter OR a case of phone compatible with Apple's MagSafe system.
Do you have an iPhone 11, 12, or Samsung S20? Get our Everyday Case!
Don’t have one? Then our Universal Adapter is for you!
Tens of thousands already use Luna Display for Mac and now we’re bringing that same magic to Windows. Whether you’re working remotely, looking to maximize your workspace, or seeking more creative flexibility - Luna has you covered. As the only hardware solution on the market, you can...
Turn any iPad into a wireless second display for your PC or Mac
Connect via WiFi or USB
Experience lag-free lightning-fast speeds
Use any Windows or Mac app
Utilize full touch support and external keyboard support
Choose from two unit options for PC: USB-C or HDMI
More people than ever are working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We're a fully-remote company ourselves — and have been since we started 7 years ago — so we truly understand the struggles of working remotely. That’s why we built Luna Display!
Life is better when your workflow works—
Not enough screen space to work efficiently? Luna acts as a second display, so you can extend your workspace from your desktop to iPad.
Traditional monitors leave you tethered to your desk. But Luna works wirelessly over your existing WiFi network — so you can move your workspace around your house, to the office, and everywhere in between.
Mobile second screen setups are often complex to set up and require lots of wires and tools. With Luna, you can pair a Windows or Mac computer to an iPad with just some apps and your Luna. No need to buy new screens - make the most out of what you have.
Luna gives you the flexibility to work wherever you want, however you want. Whether it’s stepping away from the confines of your desk to working from anywhere within your home, you can create the ultimate wireless setup with minimal effort.
Luna will connect as long as both devices are on the same WiFi network. You can even take your workflow outdoors with a strong WiFi connection.
We've spent years building Luna’s custom video compression technology we call LIQUID. Every line of LIQUID code was originally written to meet the demands of pro artists, and the result is stunning image quality and responsiveness. That means Luna can keep up with any heavy-duty workflow.
Unlike our competitors, Luna’s custom-engineering guarantees consistent performance across all of your favorite PC programs. Enjoy the same reliability of a traditional monitor but the flexibility of your iPad.
Take your mobile workspace on the go without worrying about a bunch of cords or heavy clip-on screens. Just pack your laptop, iPad, and Luna and you’re ready to go!
Luna’s hardware dongle is discreet, compact, and beautifully designed. Unlike other bulky tech accessories that take up space, Luna fits neatly in the compact box that it’s sent in.
Each box contains a Luna dongle, sculpted foam packing to safely hold it in place, and a simple card with instructions to help you get set up in seconds.
Luna Display for Windows is available in two port types — USB-C or HDMI.
If you’re a Mac user, Luna is available in USB-C or Mini DisplayPort (available for immediate purchase at lunadisplay.com). The USB-C version is compatible with both PC and Mac.
Your purchase includes the Luna Display hardware unit along with access to the free Luna Display desktop and iPad apps.
“Really enjoying my new set up, thanks to Luna Display! Such a great tool to expand workflows. 🙌” —Travis V.
“Genuinely blown away by how well it works. Never thought I’d ever be able to use a desktop computer whilst laying on the sofa. Thanks Luna Display!” —Alastair M.
"This little device from Luna Display is incredible! It allows me to use an iPad as a second screen wirelessly with retina resolution. 2 min out of the box and up and running. 👍” —Shane D.
“Much needed second screen for my 13”MBP when not at my desk. Big workflow gain. Works great over WiFi or tethered USB.” —David T.
“I just got my Luna Display in the mail, and it's incredible. Truly feels like the iPad Pro is just another monitor.” —Zack K.
“Really happy with my LunaDisplay. I use it constantly when I travel. Such a beautifully engineered solution, a real “It just works” piece of kit.” —Harrison T.
“This device is such a game changer for me. For somebody that works offsite and needs more screen real estate in apps like After Effects, Luna Display knocks it out of the park. And there’s little to no lag because it works off a solid WiFi connection. Highly recommend!!” —Miles F.
“I can take my iPad and the mouse to another part of a room and control the Mac - perfect for home recording / microphone chamber. Luna Display is great!” —Hannes O.
“I’ve tried almost all of the ‘use your iPad as a second display’ options and the ONLY one that legitimately delivered on the promise is Luna Display – thank you for making this!” —Stephen S.
“Still can’t believe how solid Luna has been day to day. Literally feels like I’m using a retina touch screen Mac when it’s open.” —Daniel P.
“Just set up my Luna Display! I don't remember the last time I've ever been so excited about a piece of tech. My two screens and I thank you.” —Lauren B.
“The speed and resolution are head and shoulders over software-only solutions!” —Martin L.
Simply plug in Luna, launch the apps, and your devices will automatically connect! Luna for Windows is available for USB-C or HDMI.
Plug Luna into your Windows computer. (You do not need to plug in a Luna into your iPad!)
With full support for external keyboards, Apple Pencil, and touch interactions, Luna allows you to harness the power of your PC while extending your display to the iPad. Here’s what you need to get started:

BeYou - The Transforming Chair With 10+ Ways You Can Sit
Now you can enjoy the benefits of movement when sitting. Focus, relax & work comfortably in many positions that feel great to be you.
Instead of telling you how to sit, BeYou transforms so you can finally sit comfortably in any position that feels great… to be you.
Sitting on your BeYou is just as intuitive as tossing and turning while you sleep. Your body will naturally tell you when it’s time to switch positions.
Then, all you have to do is listen to it. BeYou does the rest. Simply adjust and in only a few seconds, the possibilities are endless!
With your BeYou transforming chair, you can do waaay more than just sit.
You’re free to work on your laptop, play on your phone, lounge to relax, take a zen moment to yourself, do a few yoga poses and even take a power nap.
BeYou is more thoughtful than a glass of wine on a bad day and more versatile than a Swiss army knife.
Your BeYou comes with... wings. Yeah, for real. Kinda 😉 They support you no matter how you choose to sit. They are plush and comfy like grandpa's favourite armchair, yet look super sleek and modern.
They’re incredibly easy to adjust. It only takes one click! And you can do it all while sitting down. Put them all the way up, open them flat or anything in between. Whatever works for you.
Each wing can be set in 5 positions. Use them as armrests, backrest, support for your knees, the perfect place to put up your feet or even as yoga blocks.
The adjustable backrest lets you slide it up and down so you get additional back support, even for taller people. Plus, this lets you adjust the height when you're using it as a seat or table.
The backrest adjusts in all the right places to make sure BeYou feels like home. Move it backwards or forwards, up or down and even tilt it slightly.
But this is so much more than a backrest. When horizontal, it unlocks a whole new list of ways you can sit, relax or work on your BeYou.
Use it as a laptop stand or a table that’s perfect for your lunch. Or what might be the world's comfiest elbow pad. It fits under your desk and makes typing on your keyboard much easier.
No, we’re not done. You can use the backrest as a seat and finally sit comfortably with your legs crossed in a chair made for you. Rest your knees or feet on the seat and play around to find what feels good.
With so many of us working remotely now, you can trust that BeYou is perfect for your home or office setup.
The minimalist and timeless design looks great in any room. BeYou transforms to help you sit better no matter if you’re working or relaxing... or both.
When you can change your position easily so you feel more comfortable, your level of focus and productivity skyrockets.
At home, you can relax and put your feet up, take a moment to unwind and meditate or simply sit comfortably while watching a movie.
BeYou is also perfectly tailored for your home office. Now you don’t have to move from the couch to the bed then to the floor, trying to find the perfect work spot.
To stay focused and productive, it's best to stick to a dedicated work space in your home. But you don't have to stick to one position. With BeYou, you can sit however you want.
BeYou fits under your desk no matter how you like to sit: lounge, cross legged and even backwards.
Your chair is made with top quality oak veneer. This makes your BeYou very strong, stable and durable.
Because mother nature is part of the BeYou, we are committed to do our part for mother nature. That's why we will plant 1 tree for every chair sold.
The custom built quick release hinges are at the heart of BeYou’s design. They’re super easy to use and help you transform your chair in a matter of seconds.
Bums and backs around the world will be thrilled to sit on BeYou’s extra comfortable high-quality foam cushions.
We made BeYou so you can use it for years to come. That's why we use a special cushion fabric that’s stain resistant and withstands wear and tear exceptionally well.
BeYou comes with a wide base and heavy duty auto-locking wheels that adapt to your weight placed on the chair.
When you’re sitting down, it’s easy to move around with just a push of your legs. When you get up to get a coffee, the chair stays put because the wheels automatically lock in place.
The wheels work great on both carpet and hard surfaces. And you can use the wheels or the fixed casters (included in your package).
The BeYou wheel base is up to 40% wider than traditional chairs. Plus, we shifted the piston 4x further back compared to traditional chairs, which also shifts its centre of gravity, giving it excellent stability.
That way, you can rely on the base and backrest to support you without compromise, even when using the backrest as a seat in the highest positions.
You probably googled "ergonomic" at some point. But do you actually know what it means?
It's actually pretty simple. It's something designed for efficiency and comfort in a working environment. BeYou easily checks all the boxes, which is why it's a truly ergonomic chair made for how you sit.
When you're sitting for long hours every day, back pain is quite common. Because on BeYou it's so easy to change positions, you get a lot of variety. You're not forced to sit in one position, so there's no more stiffness.
BeYou's special backrest is a natural prompt for you to stay mindful of your posture. It's a great reminder to sit up straight on your own, without leaning back on a backrest that usually prompts us to slouch a little bit in our chairs.
And for those intense deep work sessions when you need the perfect support, the curved cushions frame your body better and the backrest goes up as high as 43cm / 16.9".
We believe your peace of mind is important. BeYou comes with a 1 year warranty, so you can focus on making the most of it and discovering your favourite positions.
BeYou is all about helping you sit however it feels good to be you. The need to keep changing positions is natural. With BeYou, you can enjoy the benefits of movement even when you’re sitting.
We can’t promise you won’t get addicted to BeYou… but we can assure you you’ll love every second of it!
How are we able to offer BeYou at such a competitive price? We cut out all the middlemen that inflate traditional retail prices, so we can bring you BeYou at the best possible rate.
Shipping fees will be collected after the campaign ends, on BackerKit - the pledge management platform we'll be using. Please check out our FAQs for more information.
Weight: 25kg (55 pounds)
Supports up to: 181 kg (400 pounds) on the main seat. For the sitting positions where you use the backrest as a seat, we’ve tested it so far to 125 kg (275 pounds).
BeYou Unboxing & Assembly Video
You can put together your BeYou chair in under 20 minutes 😊 with a screwdriver and a hex / Allen key (included in the package).
https://youtu.be/V4IVMVTI7Wg
BeYou is built by a group of friends with decades of experience in sitting. We sit in an office, we sit working from home, we sit down to relax, we sit while eating. But despite our years of experience, we suck at it.
Jennifer is a fidgeter, always looking for the next (weird) spot she can sit in. David is the super focused type that converts into a statue for hours, then struggles to un-stiff himself (easier said than done!). Kate can only sit cross legged, so she always ends up sitting on the floor. Macey is a yoga addict who does yoga poses day and night. Mark randomly squats cause that’s what feels comfortable to him. And Phil’s just using every possible moment to chill, he sleeps anytime, anywhezzzzzzzzzzz.
So we wanted to do better for ourselves... and for you. BeYou is the only chair that solved our different problems and transformed all our lives.
Introducing TAUR – an evolution in electric scooter design.
Electric scooters have, until now, been based on a ‘kick-scooter’ design. An electric adaptation of a toy made for kids.
That’s why there was little consideration for withstanding potholes or powering up hills. They weren’t made to be ridden at night or for cruising alongside cars. Most other designs make you top heavy and needlessly close to the front wheel. Why? Because road-riding was never the goal.
In addition, most electric scooters take ages to charge, aren’t great to look at, can easily get stolen and require a PhD in engineering to change a tyre. With all this in mind and more, our co-founder, leading personal mobility engineer and all round legend, Carson Brown, put himself to the test of creating a better one.
The safest way to scope the road is facing forwards. TAUR’s foot platforms give you a dedicated standing space that’s 2.5x wider than a typical scooter deck.
The wider, lower, side-by-side ride position makes you incredibly stable and secure. With just a small shift in weight to either side, you get a flowing, effortless turn. It also allows you to turn your head easily in either direction for maximum traffic awareness.
The fold-down foot platforms are made of an aluminum alloy covered with a high-grip foot surface. Each one is big enough to hold a rider's foot comfortably (Size 12 Gang, we've got you) which creates a highly stable weight distribution either side of the frame. Shocks from uneven roads are no problem at all.
When you're done, just fold them up and you're good to go.
TAUR’s minimal design frees up space for bigger wheels – up to 3 times bigger than other brands. Because size matters.
Potholes are a thing of the past thanks to our 12.5” kevlar-reinforced, puncture-resistant Continental® tyres. Impressive for a car, let alone a scooter.
Like some kind of two wheeled tank or G-Wagon, TAUR's deep treads cut right through to the tarmac so you won't fail to find traction, even on wet and slippery roads.
Puncture? The Kevlar-reinforcement makes that very unlikely. But if you do get one, you can remove either wheel in under a minute and be back on the road in just a few more.
TAUR™ has a simple, elegant frame. Made from aircraft-grade aluminum alloy, it's incredibly robust, lightweight and fully recyclable. Yes, we care for the planet.
The automative-grade paint job is a matte powder-coat, giving TAUR™ a subtle but sophisticated look while still maintaining high levels of durability against marks and scratches.
Who said night riding is a write-off? TAUR™ comes packed with a 300 lumen Cree® LED headlight with a high-power directional beam, giving even Batman a run for his money. This means you’ll have great visibility and plenty of time to react, even in the darkest of nights.
Safety doesn't stop there either. Unlike other products, which have a narrow front light, we specifically designed ours to contain frosted side layers that make riders visible from 240 degrees. That's right. Flex at every angle.
We're only satisfied with rear lighting that's visible at a driver's eye level. So, in addition to our highly visible front light, there's also an 80 lumen brake light at the rear, as well as a separate 100 lumen rear-projection light that utilizes TAUR's forward facing riding position. Shining a light onto the rider's back. So all eyes are on you – no paps please.
Imagine that hill you hate to walk up. Now imagine yourself zooming up it with ease. Thanks to our 500W motor in action, you have a top speed of 24mph (39 kph) and a range of 22 miles (35km).
But it's not just the motor, it's the batteries too. We use high performance cells specifically chosen to give maximum torque from the motor.
TAUR™ comes with 3 power modes:
ECO MODE - Don't blast off the block, but you'll recharge less often.
ROAD MODE - Everyday travel with great speed and acceleration.
SPORT MODE - Because life’s is too short to not go fast!
Nobody likes waiting for things to charge. Especially Carson Brown. TAUR™ comes with a 125W charger to power up our high performance batteries up to 3x faster than the average electric scooter.
Moreover, our smart battery management system (BMS) ensures that TAUR™ is aware of what's going on. The system takes readings several times per second, to make sure your battery is healthy and happy. It also means accurate range prediction, so you really know when you do/don't need a charge.
80% charge in 2 hours. Or by the time the game is over.
100% in under 3 hours. Extra time? Guess that’s extra power.
At The Flick of Your Thumb
Even while riding TAUR™, all of its functionality is accessible. Cruise control, sound the horn, change performance modes, turn the lights on and more.
Switch up your ride any time with a 5-way thumb-controlled joystick and cycle through modes on a display that doesn’t look like your 6th grade calculator.
The Fort Knox Of Scooters
Keep your enemies at bay. TAUR™ is secure and rideable only to people you grant permission. Simply tap your key fob, or use our app to unlock via bluetooth.
They’ll Need A Bigger Chainsaw
Park up anywhere stress-free by running a lock through the frame and front wheel (or both!). Oh, and you can set a security alarm too – anyone moving it for more than a few seconds will get a lot of unwanted attention (settings in app).
N.B. Lock not included.
Carry On
Don’t let the sleek lines fool you – folding TAUR™ only takes a few seconds. The kick-actuated handle unlocks the hinge which allows the steering column to clip safely into a reinforced steel support under the mudguard.
And despite packing a performance punch and incredible robustness, TAUR only weighs 15.5kg (34lbs).
Always TAUR, Sometimes Decor
Electric scooters can be a pain to store. So, we thought we'd try and make its footprint even smaller. TAUR™ stands vertically on the rear wheel and specially designed bullhorn handlebars. Alternatively, if you're old school, you can stand TAUR™ folded or unfolded on the centre stand, ready to go.
Come Rain or Shine
Don't let a bit of water stop you from that joyride. TAUR™ has an IP55 rating (pssssst, that means it works in the rain) which means you can Mary Poppins your way through town.
TAUR In Your Pocket
Keep it moving with charge check-ups and the latest updates through the TAUR™ app – for Android and iPhone.
Over-the-air updates – stay up to date with the latest functionality
Battery notifications – know if you get low
Remote immobilization – disable your product wherever you are
Alarm settings
Lighting settings
Speed limiting
TAUR™ is a hyper-connected machine with a lot of software potential. We plan to deliver some amazing functionality for backers in the short term, but we've got plenty more on the roadmap.
The Nerdy Bits
Range: 22 miles / 35km
Max-rider weight: 115kg (250lbs)
Motor: 500W, front wheel
Top speed: 24mph (39kph) – limited by default to the speed limit of the country we’re delivering to (settings in app)
If your product stops working for no fault of your own then that's on us. We'll take care of any defects that happen up to 2 years after you take delivery.
Can You Trust Us?
TAUR™ might be the new kid on the block, but don’t let that fool you.
Our team consists of some of the smartest heads in the game, with resumes packed by the likes of Tesla, Apple and British Airways. Our combined decades of industry experience have allowed us to manage how design decisions impact unit costs and timelines, and create a product that we know you’ll love as much as we do.
In the two years since that very first sketch, we’ve iterated on 7 major manufactured iterations in our mission to create the ultimate road scooter, thanks to the use of our in-house R&D and test facilities. All that’s left to do now is to hit ‘print’ on that first production run.
Production isn’t unfamiliar to us either. We’ve worked extensively with our manufacturing partners in previous projects, overseeing the manufacture and QA on runs of over 100,000 units. That’s why we have no doubt we’ll do a great job for all our backers.

The result is a refreshing, hygienic experience that can be used inside the comfort of your home.
TUSHÉ is truly the best solution for wet wipes. Our touchless technology dispenses a luxurious foam onto your toilet paper, giving you an eco-friendly, natural, and flushable way to clean your tushie. Developed for the healthy, hygiene-conscious, and eco-responsible lifestyle, TUSHÉ increases personal cleanliness and reduce the environmental burden of outdated wet wipes.
We have reinvented the wet wipe into something that is more sustainable and hygienic for you as well as our planet. It is our mission to positively impact the environment while also enhancing people’s lifestyles.
What's wrong with using a wet wipe?
Most wet wipes are made of Polyester, a form of plastic that sheds fibers as it slowly degrades into smaller particles, polluting our land, rivers, and oceans.
Other wet wipes are made from "regenerated cellulose," which includes materials like Tencel, Viscos, Rayo, and Lyocell. While these products are marketed as "eco-friendly," the truth is that we still don't fully understand how these processed materials do or don't biodegrade in the natural environment.
All wet wipes are made of cloth-like materials, compared to toilet paper they are significantly thicker. Toilet paper will quickly breaks down in your septic system which means it won't be left in landfills or enter our oceans.
WE CAN DO BETTER! WE ARE CHANGING OUR BOTTLES:
Our mission is to reduce plastic waste by eliminating single-use plastic wet wipes. Due to the large minimum order quantities, we are financially limited as a small business to pursue more eco-friendly options for our packaging. While our bottles are 100% recyclable plastic, our next step will be developing and transitioning to more innovative, environmentally-friendly alternatives.
Stop flushing your money down the toilet!
Looking at the graph above, we are wiping out the competition in all categories. There is no other wet wipe on the market that is eco-friendly, natural, flushable, and offers more bang for your buck than TUSHÉ.
Every starter kit includes a dispenser, cleansing foam, wall attachment, and USB charging cable. After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey that allows you to add more bottles of our cleansing foam to your order.
WE HAVE REACHED OUR STRETCH GOAL. You will have the option to choose between two colors: pearl white or charcoal grey. In the future, we hope to expand our dispenser variations to meet all of your diverse aesthetic needs.
Our TUSHÉ dispensers are designed to be compact and versatile. Dispensers can be placed anywhere in the bathroom of your choosing. Our favorite location? Right next to the toilet paper for easier access.
Our estimate for standard shipping charges is based on the expected volume of our campaign and is subject to change depending on the final result. These charges may also change if you add more products during the survey process such as extra bottles of cleansing foam. We want to keep this process as simple, transparent, and accurate as possible.
Customs, Duty, and VAT charges: in some cases, international backers will be required to pay additional fees. As these are beyond our control, it will be the backer's responsibility to cover these fees once they have received the selected reward. Any questions regarding this additional charge should be addressed directly with the backer's customs office.
For the last two years, our team has worked to bring you the perfect TUSHÉ. Our goal was to deliver a simple design that is visually appealing in any bathroom. We are so appreciative of our incredible production team for their help throughout the entire process. In addition to avoiding any harmful ingredients, we have implemented countless butt-wiping tests to ensure that our formula is 100% safe for daily use. We are excited to share TUSHÉ to the world and replace the outdated wet wipe FOREVER!

MOFT Float: Invisible and Foldable Stand&Case for iPad Pro
A slim stand&case that provides adjustable height and unlimited angles. Taking your iPad Pro to next-level height and experience.
The iPad Pro sits alone atop of the tablet game. For a tablet, it’s as close to perfection as you’re going to get, but it is still missing one major feature: A powerful stand&case to match its capabilities.
Until now, the most portable stands and cases did not offer eye-level viewing and adjustable angles for ergonomic working. Your iPad Pro is your next computer and it deserves a well-prepared stand&case.
We hope mobile working can not only be lightweight but also relaxed and comfortable. That’s why we create MOFT Float. With its innovative and patented double-hinge structure, it can elevate the screen to a suitable height with a comfortable viewing angle no matter where you are.
It brings you a game-changing mobile experience while working with the iPad Pro. Most importantly, it's still lightweight as MOFT product always does.
MOFT Float is crafted with a built-in stand. It remains consistent with the MOFT "invisible design" philosophy of providing more functions and protections while remaining the same slim design. Floatable when you need it and make it invisible when you don't.
Created with our unique "FLOAT" design, MOFT Float can elevate your screen up to 3.15 inches. It takes home the crown of the tallest portable stand&case on the market, allowing you to work anywhere without neck and shoulder pain.
Besides the adjustable angle&height, The MOFT Float also provides 3 different modes that take your iPad Pro to the next level, helping you use your iPad Pro in many creative ways.
With Floating mode you won’t ever have to bend your neck down for hours during extended Zoom meetings, browsing the internet, or even watching Netflix.
Quickly adjust the base to stable mode. Now you can immerse yourself in creation while enjoying a seamlessly stable experience. It is perfect for any creator who wants the most out of their iPad Pro
Most stand&case can't offer portrait mode. That doesn't make sense in 2020 since we need a lot of jobs done in portrait mode. MOFT Float is one of a kind that offers portrait mode that elevates your reading experience. Whether you’re at the office, at home, or even outdoors, read and enjoy at the perfect eye level, hands-free.
It’s simple to set up – just rotate the hinge to open and fold it down to close, which happens in a slip second. It can be easily slipped into any bag when you’re ready to hit the road again.
The hinge of MOFT float is made by light and solid aluminum alloy, offering a smooth and flexible experience. Even after being open and close for over 8000 times, it's still as strong as the first time.
The exclusively designed legs increase all-around stability, while the soft edge materials make it easy to install for work and uninstall to match other accessories.
Shock the people around by pulling out this one of a kind stand from your case. You’ll be the only one in the room sitting with your back straight and good posture, enjoying the wonders of your iPad Pro.
https://youtu.be/cGZVheLwycs
If you are typing a lot. no problem! We also prepare a kickass keyboard. So that you can build your own lightweight workstation anywhere you want.
We designed an exquisite, fully magnetic Apple Pencil 2 holder. It easily attaches to the Float using fully surrounded magnetic borders.
The Pencil Case gives full protection to your Apple Pencil all the way. You can use it separately or attach it to the MOFT float stand&case.
To thank you for being our valuable backer, we will send a tempered-glass screen protector as a free gift! Giving your iPad Pro full protection.
#Milo_Review Action Communicator Review | Speak with friends while you ski, ride or surf.
MILO - The Action Communicator
Speak with friends while you ski, ride or surf. Hands-free, no Wi-Fi or cell signal needed. For adventures on slopes, trails and water.
With sophisticated #wireless_networking, audio processing and hardware, carefully crafted design and a set of groundbreaking technologies, we'd like to introduce Milo - The Action Communicator.
Milo lets you speak with your group naturally and hands-free so you can keep your eyes on your surroundings and your hands on the handlebars or ski poles. Milo makes it possible to truly share adventures with friends and family.
It's easy: clip on your Milo and you’re ready to go - simply talk and hear everyone in your group, like being near each other even when apart. Milo gives you voice notifications about battery level, successful grouping confirmation, when someone goes out of range or re-joins your group, and more.
Traditional walkie-talkies suffer from severe limitations: you have to push-to-talk, only one person at a time can talk (half-duplex), poor audio quality, no wind noise suppression and they are often hard to use. Not to mention, most are bulky and heavy and conversations are not private.
For Free Guest posting - https://www.latesttechnicalreviews.com/
Milo integrates six high-performance digital microphones and a powerful speaker so you can be heard clearly and hear everyone in your group, even in noisy outdoor environments: sophisticated audio signal processing algorithms suppress wind and other background noise.
More Reviews - https://ltrmagazine.latesttechnicalreviews.com/
In addition to Milo's integrated microphones and speaker, you can optionally pair Milo with a Bluetooth headset or plug in a wired headset. Milo provides an open voice connection to your group but with a single click you can mute your microphone while still hearing the conversation. Your conversations are encrypted, private and secure and can only be heard by people in your group.
The Milos in your group create a secure mesh #radio_network and you don’t need Wi-Fi or cell signal.
At the core of Milo is the MiloNet protocol. It provides proactive routing to quickly adapt the network topology to moving Milo nodes and changing conditions, tolerance to high packet loss and quick convergence to correct routing. Here's a demo of the MiloNet protocol, illustrating quick route formation and route stability.
The grouping process is very simple - bring your Milos close, press a button and wait for the audible notification. You're connected!
The Milo clip uses magnets to snap in your Milo, triggering a secure mechanical lock. The clip can be attached to a bag strap, armband or bike handlebars and will not detach even if you fall or ride over bumps. Milo will not fall off, even if knocked or pulled.
Milo is waterproof and dust proof with an IP67 rating and can be fully submerged in water. It will work in the freezing cold or in direct sun, so you can safely bring Milo along on a dusty road bike, ski or surf adventure.
Thank You
A day-to-night bag fused with Parisian charm and made from nature. Adaptable to your life & your style.
The bebebark is a compact, eco-friendly, day-to-night bag by LaFlore, designed by Natacha Seroussi. Made from premium, sustainable cork bark, bebebark combines timeless Parisian elegance and a classic square proportion with the everyday functionality required for modern women.
Its removable and adjustable straps allow you to wear it as a backpack, a shoulder bag or crossbody bag, or a clutch. The brass clasp opens 180 degrees for a wide, clear view into the bag. Interior pockets and dividers in the bag were designed to organize your essentials and an exterior hidden zipper at the side provides easy access to your phone.
Designed to be a day-to-night bag, bebebark can be worn as a mini backpack, a shoulder bag or crossbody bag, or clutch - carried in the hand. The new convertible system makes it fast and easy to go from one to the other.
bebebark fits any lifestyle, any woman, and any occasion - designed to match the shape of a woman’s body and highlight any outfit. On the go or at the office, bebebark will be there to elevate your style.
Each pocket was designed for your everyday essentials - from your phone and tablet to your makeup, book, sunglasses, charger, and hand sanitizer.
In total, there are 11 pockets and compartments that will keep your items organized and easily accessible. The brass clasp opens 180 degrees for a wide and clear view into the bag, and the bright orange lining helps you locate your treasures with just a glance. A zippered section divides the main compartment.
All of our bags are handmade with love. Our sustainable cork material always comes from Portugal and our lining is made from eco-friendly recycled cotton. Our global team of artisans and workshops have been pioneering innovations in eco-friendly and sustainable craftsmanship.
The design process for the bag starts in our Parisian atelier, where we envision and sketch the bag and then develop a sample. Conceptualizing and creating the initial design can take 6 months to a year, and sometimes even more. During this process, we are in close communication with our team of artisans who have vast experience creating high-end handbags for over 30 years. Samples are scrutinized and tested until the design and quality is absolutely perfect.
Our bag artisans pay close attention to every detail to guarantee each and every bag is of the highest possible quality.
Our bag is handmade from a premium cork skin which is harvested in Portugal and polished until the texture is as soft and supple as leather.
Cork is as resistant and durable as leather but 3 times lighter. It is completely organic & ethical. Collecting and harvesting the bark from the cork tree takes place every 7 to 9 years, and does not harm the trees. In fact, this harvesting method helps the trees grow and release more oxygen.
LaFlore is a family story, between a father and his daughter. Elie, the father, is the founder of one of the leading fashion houses in Paris, CECILE & JEANNE. Elie has worked in fashion for over 30 years. Natacha is a young designer born and raised in Paris surrounded by craftsmanship and the finest handbag workshops.
They share a passion for design and fashion, as well as a mutual concern for our environment’s future. Together they created the brand LaFlore, which stands for luxury and sustainability, so women never again have to choose between style and ethics.
A year of research and dozens of prototypes later, bobobark was born. Now, LaFlore is excited to welcome bebebark to the family, continuing the tradition of creating backpacks for women that merge ethics & aesthetics. You can be confident that a handbag from LaFlore is versatile, comfortable, eco-friendly, and completes any outfit with classic elegance.
Thanks to the success of our first campaign, we renovated our Parisian boutique. It’s located in the heart of le Marais and it’s now LaFlore’s flagship store. We invite you to come and meet us so we can show you the bebebark prototype in person. We also make great coffee!

Hooke Lav is a wireless microphone that captures pro-grade sound with no wires, no dropouts and no hassle. The Bluetooth lav has 8GB of internal storage and connects to any device with the click of a button. This slick, minimalist microphone maximizes your freedom to record with no setup necessary!
#Hooke_Lav: A Sleek #WirelessMic With Pro-Grade Sound
A wearable microphone with studio-quality sound that captures dropout-free audio with one click
It’s the first truly wireless device to send high quality audio over Bluetooth at low latency. The stylish, clip-on gives you professional quality audio recording in the studio, on the go and out in the wild. It eliminates wind noise, cuts the cord and, thanks to its internal storage, picks up every second of audio even if Bluetooth cuts out.
Smartphone cameras have been upgraded year after year, but their mics still don’t measure up, leaving you with subpar sound on crystal-clear videos. The same goes for mics on DSLR cameras and laptops—the quality isn’t there!
The only way to improve sound quality is upgrading to a better microphone, but that often requires sizable funds, technical know-how and a learning curve. And on top of that, most “quality” lavalier microphones on the market have messy cords or bulky design.
With Hooke Lav, you can skip the confusion and opt for an affordable pro-quality mic that operates with one click!
Hooke Audio is no stranger to success in the sound engineering world. In 2014, founder Anthony Mattana had a wildly successful Kickstarter launch of Hooke Verse that raised $163,166 with 1,385 backers.
Hooke Verse headphones were flawlessly delivered to backers in 2017, and since then, Hooke Audio hasn’t stopped revolutionizing the world of mobile Bluetooth sound
Before Hooke Audio, creators sacrificed sound quality for utility with Bluetooth speakers and headphones that were limited to sending mono audio (3kHz – 5kHz). The only way to upgrade to stereo audio (20Hz – 20kHz) was using a more cumbersome setup with added weight and wires. Hooke saw this problem and built a custom codec that allows dual-channel streaming of high-quality audio to both Android and iOS at incredibly low latency.
Android and iOS are not (yet) natively set up to receive our proprietary Bluetooth recording codec, so we use our mobile app to make the handshake with our recording codec. The result is a fully stacked mobile app designed to change the way you record the world!
Hooke Lav has just one button that’s used for powering on/off, beginning/ending recording and pairing. Plus, it automatically turns off after 10 minutes of non-use to conserve battery life.
Cut the cord and slip on the smallest wearable mic that records wirelessly to any mobile device through Bluetooth 5.0. The stylish mic has 7 hours continuous recording battery life and takes less than an hour to fully charge. Whether you need to be in the scene or on the scene, Hooke Lav ensures you get ridiculously crisp audio in one click.
Hooke Lav is equipped with 8GB of internal storage, backing-up every capture in real time, so your audio is seamless even when Bluetooth is not.
When a recording begins, the audio is sent to the phone or device over Bluetooth in real time, while an identical file is being written to internal storage. When a recording ends, Hooke Lav merges both audio files together for a pristine, dropout free recording.
Hooke Lav uses digital, omnidirectional microphones to capture the highest-quality, noise-free sound in both the loudest and quietest environments. When you play it back, it sounds like the audio is happening right in front of you. With Hooke Lav, you don’t have to be a sound engineer to access high-quality audio equipment!
Hooke Audio app for iOS and Android is the only app on the market that lets a device stream rich, dual channel, high quality audio (20Hz – 20 kHz) over Bluetooth to Android and iOS with no latency.
The Hooke Audio app also doubles as a field recorder. Put your device in your pocket and record audio on the fly! Share your videos and sound recordings via email, social media and text message straight from the app. No special speakers or algorithms required.
Hooke Lav was created to capture audio to your mobile device, but we know sometimes things don’t go as planned. And that’s why we created Island Mode.
Island Mode lets you record hands-free, without connecting to a phone or camera. You can “unplug” from the world and still record your thoughts, songs and sounds with just a clip and a click! Hooke Lav stores the capture onboard until you’re able to connect and upload to a mobile device.
You don’t do everything on a mobile device. That’s why we created Receiver Mode, allowing one LAV to receive audio from the other and transmit it directly into the audio jack of any camera. Syncing your sound directly to picture.
Receiver Mode requires 2 lavs and allows you to override the internal microphone on your phone/camera/computer and record with Hooke Lav. Lav A connects wirelessly to Lav B and B pumps audio into the phone lightning port/Micro USB slot via a 3.5mm cable.
Use one LAV to record alone in Solo Mode or pair with a second for 2-channel input in Duet Mode.
Duet Mode is perfect for interviews, podcasts and more. Place Hooke Lav mics on two different interviewees and record their vocals respectively, and both recordings will transmit to the smartphone in real-time, mixed together with the video automatically
Whether you’re vlogging on a busy street, recording a podcast in your basement or meeting in Zoom, Hooke Lav gives you freedom to move and still be perfectly heard.
If a device is meant to be worn, it should look like it. Hooke Lav was designed with intention to be discreet, lightweight, and honestly, a little sexy. Brushed steel, secure clip, durable makeup...what’s not to LAV
In a world where content is king, your sound matters more than ever. Your creations should be more than “played back” or heard. They should be felt and experienced!
Hooke Lav gives you the power to capture vivid, studio-grade sound over Bluetooth without breaking the bank. No expensive wires and equipment to set up, just a clip-on mic and app download and you’re ready to record on your favorite devices.
Technological advances in photo and video have enabled us to record our lives vividly through filters and advances in image processing. But what about sound? Poor quality audio means that only half of the story is being told. It’s time to enable our smartphones to record audio like we actually hear it.
Hooke Audio was founded in 2014 by Anthony Mattana, who started his career in sound as a theatrical sound designer and composer. Cited by Live Design Magazine as “Young Designer to Watch,” Mattana is a professional at telling stories through sound in both large and small-scale productions. At the tender age of 25, determined to bring the professional audio tools he had access to in the theatre to smartphones, he invented Hooke Audio, a recording platform designed to change the way we record the world.
Our team is made up of designers, engineers and artists with 20+ years experience in sales, marketing, audio, software and hardware. Our Board of Advisors has 30+ years in music, sound, tech and investing, as well.
Hooke Audio's first product Hooke Verse has been referred to as ‘the GoPro for sound.’ Having presented at Midem, NAMM, SXSW, Northside, CES, Taiwan Beats, NYVR Expo and various VR meet-ups as the audio thought leaders in the VR and 3D audio space since 2014. Hooke Audio has been featured in Fast Company, Digital Trends, Wired, Tech Crunch, Recording Magazine, Pro Sound Magazine and Gizmodo.

RGKit Play: Play with movement like a pro
A motion control kit that lets you add tons of movements to your design, camera and light, instantly.
We took RGKit Play to the studio to see what we can video shoot in an hour. Several hours and a bunch of videos later we came up with some pretty cool stuff we want to share with you. Check out our full series of videos in our updates.
The first-ever modular wireless kit of motors, light controller and sensors that lets you add tons of movements to your design, instantly. With a phone app that makes the whole process quick and smooth. Move your camera, animate your origami, automate your stop motion, or build your own interactive installation.
All you have to do is plug the modules to a power source and they will automatically sense each other and connect to your phone. That’s really it! You don’t have to worry about wiring or setting up complex electronics. On RGKit App, you can choose between two modes: Manual Mode & Auto Mode. In Manual Mode, you can control all the modules in real time, and in Auto Mode you can create a sequence of movements, and when you click play the sequence automatically starts. With RGKit Play App, you can start slow and go fast, stop suddenly or ease into a new movement. Play around with the parameters; speed, acceleration, duration, delay, and a lot more. All with zero lines of code!
You can orchestrate an entire sequence of movements and set it to the fraction of second, then take a video like this without the hassle. With all the complex electronics and coding out of the picture, all you will need is RGKit App’s drag-and-drop interface.
Picture this: everything on set moves in synchronization, then the only thing still would be you. Multiple motors for your light, subject and camera completely in sync and entirely controlled by you through RGKit Play App.
Move your camera in a perfect circle around your subject. That’s not all! Sync the camera movement with other subjects’ movement to shoot the perfect moment, with all its details.

RGKit Play is modular with lots of accessories to choose from, the idea is you can play around with them and use their unique capabilities. So according to the type of movement you choose or accessories you use, you can move even more.
Stop motion just got quicker! Connect RGKit Play to your stop motion app and automize the whole process. While triggering the camera to take a shot, control your subject’'s or camera’s movement to automatically move and stop in the duration you decide.
It's very simple! Mount RGKit Play's modules and accessories to your design or camera. Drag and drop on RGKit App to customize your movements. Play with movement like a pro.
With the variety of options in RGKit Play's accessories you will get to create the movements you want and all of this with just one motor. Move back and forth or up and down, go in circles, pull, push, lift...you name it.
Go a step further and make your design interactive! With RGKit Play’s Touch sensor your design reacts to you and moves accordingly. You can place the sensor under surfaces like wood, glass, plastic and paper and it will detect your touch through the surface.
"I have always wanted to move the designs that I draw. I’d imagine my own Zada’s interactive village. Seriously, seeing them move now it feels like they’re alive. It’s a very cool experience."
Farah Zada, Illustrator/Artist
There is a moment that we live for in every project, the moment a project finally comes to life. We want you to experience that easily. We want every creative to be able to create movement in their projects instantly. Less time on the technicalities, more time for creative freedom. Time to RGKit Play.
"I played a bit with electronics and coding when I was in university and always wanted to learn more but I never had the time to enter this whole foreign world of coding again. RGKit made it so easy to take this step, the whole setting up of the electronics and figuring out how the software works took 10 minutes! Which gives me time to focus more on my ideas, I think it’s a great kit to help you prototype things super fast! And now I can turn my work into physical pieces that people can enjoy off screen too!"
