Movable Moisture: Tiny Humidifier Fits on Any Water Bottle



Has dry air got you (and your skin) feeling a little parched? The Amazing Humidifier wants to make every space moister and more comfortable. It’s a tiny USB-powered humidifier that fits on top of any plastic water bottle to shoot out a steady mist of filtered water. It can even be used in the car thanks to a cigarette adapter.

Most water bottles use the same size openings, so the Amazing Humidifier will fit a wide variety of bottles. The little gadget also acts as an aroma diffuser when you add scented oils, and its soft glow makes it a calming night light as well.

We can’t say how safe it would be to run a humidifier as close to your computer as they do in the video, but the Amazing Humidifier looks intriguing. Its included filter needs to be changed approximately every three months, and the whole thing costs around $32 US. Its low price and super-compact size make it the perfect travel humidifier for that dry, dusty hotel room.

21 Coolest Bottle Openers



Bottle openers are quite possibly the most essential item in any man’s pocket. For some reason though we can never seem to find one when we actually need them. Often times we become overwhelmed with the sheer number of options out there, and can’t seem to find one that really suits our tastes. Fret not fellow boozer. We’ve got you covered with a comprehensive list of the 21 coolest bottle openers on the market. Everything from home solutions to on the road performance.

Luchador Bottle Opener


We’d be lying to you if we said we didn’t love Mexican wrestling, and apparently we’re not the only ones. Designer Andres Lhima loved it so much he decided to create a fully functional Mexican wrestler bottle opener. This durable device is made from stainless steel and ABS coated in rubber.

Kebo One-Handed Bottle Opener


Since we’ve turned 21 (because we weren’t drinking before that) we’ve been sold into thinking that bottles need to be opened with two hands. They fooled us. Kebo is letting the cat out of the bag with this innovative opener.

They don’t get much more badass than this. Constructed from an actual .50 caliber bullet casing, this American built opener is all man.

Brooklyn Brew Shop Coasters


Another dual function opener, these coasters make the most sense. Each coaster is constructed from solid maple wood, and features a hidden metal bottle opener on the bottom half.

While it looks like a key, this thing is built for popping tops. One of the most convenient offerings on the list, you can simply attach this thing right to your keychain, and off you go.

Butterfly Knife Bottle Opener


We’ve always loved flipping open a butterfly knife in public. Problem is local PD doesn’t seem to share the same thoughts. Now you can do the same butterfly tricks with this stainless steel opener. It not only looks, but also behaves just like your butterfly knife, and you won’t get busted for carrying a concealed weapon.

Mermaid Bottle Opener


This antique reproduction opener just looks awesome, and the cast iron construction means this thing will take a beating.

Bottle Opener Rings


If you want to make sure that you’ll never be left stranded with an unopened bottle again, you need to implement a solution that will always be available. Well a ring is definitely a good option as you don’t ever have to take it off, and it allows you to pop open a brew with just one hand as well.

Road Popper


While we don’t condone drinking and driving by any means, we do co-sign on this device. We use our 2 wheeled companion to get everywhere in the city, and now your bike can really become your best friend. Crafted from bronze infused stainless steel, it adds a nice finishing touch to your bike.

Mount the vintage wood backing to the wall, pop your top with the stainless steel opener, and the built in magnets will catch the bottle caps on the way down. Comes in two different sizes (52 and 15 cap capacity).

Recycled Bike Chain Bottle Opener


We have always had a love affair with cycling, and that’s the exact reason why this gadget was an instant win for us. The handle has been crafted from a flexible recycled bike chain paired to a colorful anodized aluminum head. Each one is made right here in the U.S.A.

Clicker TV Remote Bottle Opener


Now that’s what we’re talking about. Now you don’t ever have to get up from the couch. Pop open a cold one while watching some NBA League Pass. The pairing to your television is also super simple considering this gadget will automatically learn the code from your existing remote.

Bottle Opener Sunglasses


The team at William Painter really hit a homerun with these sunglasses. Built from titanium, the Wayfarer shades come with a built-in opener. Definitely the most stylish opener on the list.

Hammer Bottle Opener

Cap Zappa Bottle Opener Cap Launcher


Going against the ultimate rule of “never playing with your food (or drink in this case),” the Cap Zappa pops a top just as good as any of the other openers on the list. The real fun begins once you’ve cracked open the cold one. The spring loaded mechanism allows you to launch the cap, turning your opener into a self defense weapon.

We couldn’t compile such an exhaustive list without once incorporating the greatest movie franchise of all time. Modeled to look just like Han Solo’s ship, this officially licensed product is a must have for Star Wars fans.

Opena iPhone 5 Case


If there’s one sure fire way to ensure that you’ll never forget a bottle opener again, you need it to be built-in to your iPhone seeing that thing is attached at the fingertips. The stainless steel opener slides right in and out of the super tough Polycarbonate case.
