    - A fun design made of firm but bendable lightweight rubber material.
    - Two sizable holes at the top of the product for storing individual ear bud units.

    Beamer Hits Quirky’s Online Store

    Beamer has hit the store! $32 to purchase it in pre-sales and our threshold is 500. Go get ‘em quirks!

    quirky’s Beamer is an iphone case with a built in light. This light can dual function as a flash for your iphone’s camera as well as a light for use whenever you see fit – Dropped something under the table at dinner? Need a flashlight for your car? Squinting to read a menu in candlelight? Taking a picture in the dark? Beamer is the case that shines!

    glory

    Beamer is a hard, durable plastic case with a friction-fit, 2 piece design. Beamer’s base slides out for quick insertion of your iphone. Turning on the light is easy. Simply press the silicone button once and the light will remain on for 10 seconds – leaving you with enough time to snap your picture. Pressing the button twice in a row will leave the light on indefinitely until you are ready to turn it off – to do so, just press the button a 3rd time.

    Beamer’s super bright LED is powered by its own battery (residing on the inside of the case) so it does not drain any of your iphone’s battery. And not to worry, the button is set in a groove to avoid being accidentally turned on when in your pocket thus keeping the battery alive as long as possible.

    You can choose from one of quirky’s funky case colors. With the Beamer, all you iPhone-ers out there need not feel jealous of your Blackberry-ing friends. Now you too can have stellar phone pictures.

    NOTE: Beamer will use replaceable Lithium coin cell batteries for an estimated life of about 10 hours of super bright illumination.

    StashCan Hits quirky’s Online Store

    StashCan is now up for pre-sale! Commit for $54.00 and earn some more influence! We’ve got to pre-sell 1870 units of this thing before we move it into production. The threshold is high due to the sheer size of the product which results in increase capital required to mass produce this product. Let’s go quirks. Who wants in? Spread the word through social sales!

    StashCan

    quirky’s StashCan is a kitchen trash can with the added ability to store trash bags in the can itself. No more hassle with drippy bags, and time consuming trash removal. The StashCan makes your trash routine far simpler, cleaner, and speedier. (oh and it looks pretty too!)

    Step on StashCan’s foot pedal to open the lid to dispose of your garbage. Once your trash is full, simply open the stainless steel rimmed top and pull out the removable, lightweight, plastic liner containing the full trash. Remove your full trash bag and clean the liner (if necessary).

    Replacing the liner with a new, unused trash bag is simple due to the storage unit in the top, rear of the can. Never search around your kitchen for trash bags again! This separate trash bag compartment allows new bags to be easily accessed by pulling upward on the next available bag in the roll or stack. Once replaced, pop the liner back into the StashCan.

    With the StashCan, trash removal is a chore that you and your children won’t mind completing!

    NOTE: trash bags not included.

    Bobble Brush Hits Quirky’s Online Store

    quirky’s bobble brush is a tooth brush stand that turns your toothbrush into a “weeble.” No more sink top germs on your bristles – this weighted structure keeps your tooth brush upright, bobbling, and grime free.

    Bobble_glory
    The tooth brush insert slot at the top of the structure can fit most standard, non-electronic brushes with its friction-fitted, plastic entry point. The rubberized, weighted base will keep the bobble brush from sliding off a wet sink or tight bathroom surface. No worries germ-o-phobes – bobble’s top and mid sections can be unscrewed and detached for easy cleaning.

    Feel free to keep one at every sink at home or bring it with you when you travel. Select your favorite bobble color from one of the three: pink, green, or blue – or buy ‘em all for the whole family and give each tooth brush their own.

    Commit now in pre-sales for $8.99 (and earn some more influence of course!)
