Best Christmas Gift: Ramsey IG7 Ion Generator Kit


Ramsey IG7 Ion Generator Kit

Product Description

This nifty kit includes a pre-made high voltage ion generator potted for your protection, and probably the best one available for the price. It also includes a neat experiment called an "ion wind generator". This generator works great for pollution removal in small areas (Imagine after Grandpa gets done in the bathroom!), and moves the air through the filter simply by the force of ion repulsion! No fan blades, no noise, just swiftly moving, charged air. Learn how modern spacecraft use ions to accelerate through space. Use the Ion Generator to pump your VanDeGraff generator to a faster charge time, and generate negative ions for health and healing! Includes ion power supply, 7 ion wind tubes, and mounting hardware for the ion wind generator. (Caution...do not grab the output of the transformer, all the ions may be sucked out of your body! And don't you just hate it when that happens!)

Review
The one I bought only comes with the high voltage power supply I had to buy a 12v power supply from radio shack. After putting it together I turned it on and saw the led light up. The air flow is there but almost unnoticeable. It will not register on an airflow meter. It is cool using ions to move air but impractical for anything more than a scientific demonstration. I was hoping it could blow out a candle but it isn't that powerful.

The Best Toilet Paper in the Galaxy

By NedMuffin (Cambridge, UK)
As a loyal minion to the Commander-in-Chief of the Galactic Empire, I can attest to the sweet fragrance, strength and absorbency of this product: the Dark Lord of the Sith will countenance no other luxury bath tissue in his personal toilet chamber.

I deducted one star only because I fear being telekinetically throttled by Lord Vader unless new stock is received soon.


Great for yard rolling


By BBQBasic (Laurel, Ms. United States)
This is great for stealth yard rolling in the dark of night. Save yourself some money by buying the special 36 roll "vandal pack" that usually comes out around Halloween. I use any rolls that are left over from our rolling operations in my Goth themed bathroom located in the basement dungeon.

Reviews

I Told You!

So. How do you like that?

I am so tired of the looks and stupid questions. "Gee Grandpa, did they anally probe you?" Sure, keep laughing. It's all fun and games until they show up at your house. Let me tell you something else, TIN FOIL DOES NOT WORK. I don't care what your reptilian friends told you. It does not affect the subtle cloaking radiation that makes him appear human.

Sorry, I got side tracked from the review.

This amazing device gives ample warning and is HIGHLY ACCURATE. I had a pretty good idea of when there was abnormal activity in my area. BUT NOW, DAMN. Every time that I notice distorted sensory emissions, bang, the detector is going off! WOOT WOOT WOOT!

Last Tuesday, it was raining and I admit that it is much more difficult for me to hone in on the parapsychotical wave lengths in precipitation. The detector starts going "WOOT WOOT WOOT!" I reach for my divining rod (don't laugh, Johnny Mnemonic says, "go low tech.") and my proton pack. Sure enough, one of those b*stards was right in my living room!

Every day, I am thankful to own this piece of technology. Get yours soon.

Customer Reviews

By Kyle J. Von Bose "Kyle von Bose" (Anchorage, Alaska) - See all my reviews

I bought this to power a home-made submarine that I use to look for prehistoric-era life forms in land-locked lakes around my home town in Alaska. At first I wasn't sure if this item would (or could) arrive via mail, but I was glad to see it showed up with no problems. Well, almost no problems.
Unfortuantly my mom opened my mail, because she does not respect people's privacy. She was pretty upset to see Uranium Ore. After a long argument and me running away from home again, she finaly stopped being such an idiot and I was able to get back to work.
The quality of this Uranium is on par with the stuff I was bying from the Libyans over at the mall parking lot, but at half the price! I just hope the seller does not run out, because I have many projects on my list including a night vision sasquatch radar, an electromagnetic chupakabra cage, a high velocity, aerial, weighted Mothman net and super heated, instant grill cheese sandwhich maker.

Executive Business Gifts For The Board Of Trustees

by Tina Rinaudo
The holiday season is a time of giving, but if you’re an upper-level manager, you may be panicking because your board of trustees can be a thorn in your side when it comes to our Christmas shopping list. Typically, board members are upper-middle class or upper-class people who are well established in the community and know everyone. In other words, they already have everything they need. There are plenty of executive business gifts on the market, but which ones will suit your board members?
First, consider the role of the board of trustees within your business or organization. Do these community members meet a few times every year to discuss the budget? Are they involved with every aspect of the business? Are they paid? Are they shareholders in the company? In general, the more work the trustees put into the company, the more money you should spend on their executive business gifts. Remember, there are plenty of gifts at YesGifts.co.uk that look expensive but are surprisingly affordable. However, some promotional T-shirts are probably not appropriate!
Unless, of course, you run a clothing business that specialized in promotional T-shirts! Take into account the very nature of your business. The executive business gifts you choose for board members of a construction company will be different than the executive business gifts you choose for board members of a stock broking company, and both will be different than those executive business gifts you choose for the board members of a hospital. You don’t have to have a theme to your gift (ie, hammers for the construction company board or stethoscopes for the hospital board), but you should take into account that different businesses dictate the need for different gifts.
Also consider the lives of the board members. When someone is one a board of trustees, they often also have a different full-time job. In many cases, you’ll find similarities. For example, a non-profit organization focusing on education might have a board of trustees made up of many stay-at-home mothers. For them, a corporate carrying case doesn’t make sense. At the same time, a board of trustees for a restaurant chain may all be involved in the business world. For them, corporate carrying cases make a lot of sense.
Of course, always purchase the same thing for all members of the board. Playing favorite could put your relationship with the board in jeopardy and, if nothing else, will make some board members feel unappreciated. Set a budget for gifts and divide that total budget by the number of member on the board. This will dictate how much you can spend on each person. Luckily, executive business gifts like desk clocks, polo shirts, and conference folders don’t have to be expensive.
The weight of purchasing executive business gifts for board members should fall on an upper-level manger who is not a member of the board. Someone who works in the budget department is a good choice for this task, or it can fall on the head of the vice-president of the company. When in doubt, suggest the idea to the highest authority who is not on the board of trustees. Together, you can work to choose the perfect holiday gift to show your board members that you appreciate the work they do for the company.

Using Advertising Business Gifts To Increase Your Business

 by Tina Rinaudo

Your marketing division – maybe that’s you? – has two major jobs to do for your company:

- find new customers
- hang on to existing customers

Both of those jobs can be a major challenge. Trying to do both of those jobs on a budget is an even bigger challenge. Advertising is the usual answer to finding new customers, but advertising can be expensive – often prohibitively expensive. Worse, it’s usually difficult to tell just how effective your advertising campaigns are. The best that you can usually do is measure sales before and after a marketing campaign, but even then it’s difficult to tell which part of your marketing efforts really paid off with results.

It’s even more difficult when it comes to keeping your existing customers. The traditional way to hang on to those customers once you’ve found them is by offering exceptional quality, excellent customer service and great prices. The problem is that your competitors are trying to do the same thing, and one place where they find new customers is by luring them away from you. Even your best customers will only be loyal to a point. If they’re offered a better deal with the same benefits elsewhere, you’ll stop hearing from them – and discovering precisely why they jumped ship to the competition is nearly impossible.

How do you solve both problems with one low-cost alternative? Advertising business gifts are one solution that can satisfy both of your needs. Business giveaways and advertising business gifts are an excellent way to promote your services and products to both existing customers and new ones. Here’s why:

Everyone loves to get something for nothing. Getting a gift makes you feel good about the person or company giving the gift, especially if it’s something useful and valuable to you. Giving out a free advertising business gift is a great way to introduce your products and your company to new business prospects. Whenever they use your gift, they’ll be reminded of that good feeling, and that translates into trust and loyalty.

Everyone likes to be appreciated. When you give little tokens of appreciation to your existing customers, you let them know that you value their business. That appreciation translates into – you’ve guessed it – trust and loyalty. And trust and loyalty drive business sales.

When you choose to promote your business with advertising business gifts, you’re putting the bulk of your promotional budget where it counts and where it will do the most good – in front of your customers. You’re not sending out signals to reach millions of the wrong people. Instead, you’re focusing your efforts on those people who are the most likely to buy from you or use your services.

And your advertising isn’t flashed before them for thirty seconds as an annoyance or an interruption to their leisure time viewing and listening. Instead, your gift sits there on their desk, their key chain or their refrigerator every day, day after day, all day long. When the time comes that they need your product again, who do you think they’ll turn to?

Corporate Gift Branding - Is Corporate Gift Useful In Branding Your Company?

Author: Cheow Yu Yuan

If you are in business, do you think that using corporate gift is a good way to increase the brand awareness of your company? Frankly speaking, corporate gift is an ideal marketing channel that all marketers should consider when it comes to planning their overall marketing plans. Whether you are giving them away at an major events or to your staffs, they can always promote feelings of goodwill between your company and the gift receivers.

When it comes to using corporate gift as a branding channel, one very important things to take note of is not to use too shabby gifts. Quality counts a lot if you want to create a positive and lasting impression in your receivers minds. Your gifts should appear perfect in appearance and useful when it comes to serving your receivers.

Although to have such good quality gifts, you will need to fork up a little bit more money to purchase them. What you can do here is to go to your most trusted suppliers and negotiate a long term supplying deal with him/her so that you will be able to get some discount along the way. As the supplier is someone that you trust, you will be ensured that you are getting top quality gifts with a very good pricing.

Now let us get back to the main question on whether is it useful to use corporate gifts to brand your company.

1. Maintaining a feeling of goodwill between your company and receivers. As I have mentioned earlier on, your receivers will be able to interact and relate back to your company more when he or she receives something tangible. With corporate gifts, you are giving them physical representation of your business, allowing them to touch and feel it. This will leave a deeper impression in their minds, thus resulting in a better overall branding purpose in the long run.

2. Showing the uniqueness of your company. As corporate gifts can be easily personalized, you will be able to match them according to your business's culture and personality. By doing this, you are presenting the right image of your business to your consumers, enabling them to remember your brand and products/services much better.

3. Able to associate with your brand. As marketing and branding is all about making association between a business and its customers, you can make use of corporate gifts to fulfill this purpose. By duplicating your brand logo or USP on gifts and distribute them to your potential customers, you will be able to link the gifts effectively with your company's brand or USP, creating a more lasting impression in their minds.

Lastly, do set your budget right before you set out to manufacture your gifts. Make sure that the designs are up to standard too!
