I could see the necessity of the PH, light and moisture monitor for people growing plants of a clandestine nature....

Harbor Freight has this stuff too. They also sell an "a-ooga horn".

@Git Em SteveDave: Harbor Freight is AWESOME! I need that speaker for dogs, because I always get so close to running them over.

So they expect me to pay money to warn pedestrians when I break? I'd rather they be surprised.

Great Dealzmodo, we need to see more cheap yet 'usefull' crap. How about a contest, the most malicious gadgets for under 40 bucks?

@EvilBit: It's been around for years. The prudes are more pre-occupied by MILF and threesome sales.

@slowreader:
yeah but who would invest in an operation important enough to go beyond 'eyeballing' it who would also be so cheap (and stupid) to trust an 8 dollar sensor?

I so wanted the Mirage Maker when I was a kid. I guess I still really want it.

Dang, I used to work on the same street as one of their retail stores, but never went in. Now it's not coming up on their site.

This place looks AWESOME.

@fastm3driver:
It's unfortunate that the companies are in-- and named after-- two different countries, or I'd love to see an ASS and a FCUK next to each other.

There's also a store called A Southern Season out there, though, so you could at least line up a pair of ASSes.

@EvilBit: I've been calling it that for over 10 years. although I seem to be the only one. The Milwaukee store is about 10 minutes from me.

These things suck. I have one, save the money for a real PH pen or even some litmus strips.
