While the door isn&#8217;t available in the U.S. yet, it should be heading here sometime during 2018, and it&#8217;s certainly worth the wait for its unique features.<\/p>\n<p>You can lock it, have it open on motion, and receive custom alerts. But what&#8217;s really impressive is its RFID compatibility. Put the RFID tag on your pet&#8217;s collar and the door will open only for them. This upgrade makes it more secure than the generic doggie door. Petwalk works with Alexa and has an open API for future smart home integration.

Their <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2DR40wj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">small trackers<\/a> use replaceable cell batteries, but their other gadgets are rechargeable. The small attachment that goes on your glasses makes it easy to locate your lost glasses by ringing them. Their wallet also has both a power bank and an Orbit tracker built right in. Both are fully rechargeable using USB outlets, which makes Orbit stand out compared to Tile and Trackr. We&#8217;re always hearing from readers that they want\u00a0<strong>rechargeable\u00a0<\/strong>Bluetooth trackers\u2014here is your answer.<\/p>\n<p>Note that, just like Tile and Trackr, it does not use GPS to track your stuff, but instead has a range of up to 100 feet. Outside of that range, you&#8217;ll need to hope that someone else from their network walks past your tracker and pings its location. The other option is to turn on notifications for when you begin to separate\u00a0from the tracker.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span id=\"Tractive_GPS_Dog_Collar\">Tractive GPS Dog Collar<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7238\" src=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/tractive_pet_collar-compressor.png\" alt=\"tractive pet collar\" width=\"454\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/tractive_pet_collar-compressor.png 1200w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/tractive_pet_collar-compressor-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/tractive_pet_collar-compressor-1024x568.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 454px) 100vw, 454px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When I&#8217;ve heard of GPS dog collars in the past, I assumed they were very expensive, but that&#8217;s not the case with <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2Dmdkap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Tractive<\/a>. The GPS monitoring requires monthly fees, but they start at just $5 per month for live GPS tracking that updates every 2-3 seconds. You can also set up geofencing to receive alerts when your dog leaves a pre-set area, like your yard. The tracker is rechargeable, waterproof, and snaps on to any dog collar using a clip. The biggest drawback is the weak battery, which lasts only a few days. However, it recharges quickly in two hours.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span id=\"Luka\">Luka<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7239\" src=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/luka_reading_robot-compressor.png\" alt=\"luka reading robot\" width=\"471\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/luka_reading_robot-compressor.png 1200w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/luka_reading_robot-compressor-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/luka_reading_robot-compressor-1024x577.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 471px) 100vw, 471px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ve heard of Reading Rainbow, but how about reading robot?

Luka reads on the current page, making it easy for kids to follow along and listen. Its cute (or creepy) eyes can blink and follow along with the text.

This means that many devices that only work with Alexa using a Z-Wave hub will be accessible at an affordable price thanks to ZLink. About the size of a USB, ZLink simply plugs into an outlet for small, minimalist control of your smart home devices. While the creators admit that its small size limits some of its functionality (it isn&#8217;t really designed for security cameras right now), ZLink is a great starter hub for connecting a few devices or adding Alexa controls. The hub also has iOS and Android apps for controlling all of your Z-Wave devices.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span id=\"NazTech_Charger_Mount\">NazTech Charger Mount<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7241\" src=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/naztech_charger-compressor.png\" alt=\"naztech charger\" width=\"449\" height=\"254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/naztech_charger-compressor.png 1200w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/naztech_charger-compressor-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/naztech_charger-compressor-1024x579.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 449px) 100vw, 449px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>NazTech&#8217;s new <a href=\"http:\/\/naztech.com\/index.php?route=information\/information&amp;information_id=22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MagBuddy<\/a> Fast Charge makes it easy to wirelessly charge your phone while it&#8217;s mounted. By attaching the thin magnetic plate to the back of your phone, you can easily snap your phone onto the magnetic mount to charge your phone without any annoying wires. I also like the idea of keeping my phone visible for following directions on Google Maps, and MagBuddy gives plenty of options for mounting this in your cupholder, vent, dash, and more.<\/p>\n<p>Its Fast Charge has a capacity of up to 15 watts for super quick charging. The magnet was also very strong so I have no concerns about my phone sliding. The MagBuddy mounts will be available for pre-order in late February 2018 at $69.99 MSRP.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span id=\"My_Arcade_Game\">My Arcade Game<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7242\" src=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/my_arcade_game-compressor.png\" alt=\"my arcade game\" width=\"475\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/my_arcade_game-compressor.png 1200w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/my_arcade_game-compressor-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/smarthomesolver.com\/reviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/my_arcade_game-compressor-1024x576.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My Arcade Game&#8217;s new Mini Arcades each offer a tiny, handheld version of your favorite classic arcade games.

Compatible with Netflix, Hulu, Google Play, Plex, Kodi, and even several live channels, Keecker is designed to be an all-around entertainment system for any room of your home.<\/p>\n<p>With a 360-degree camera, HD and 4K ceiling and wall projectors, a 4.1 audio system, sensors to avoid crashes, and two cameras for navigation and security, Keecker is decked out in technology. This obviously brings its price up; Keecker will set you back a hefty $1,790 for a 32 GB device. The battery life is 6 hours of full projection, sound, and movement, or or 7 days of only surveillance mode. The robot docks itself to recharge.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>While some of these are still a little overpriced, they all provide actual day-to-day value: for our cars, homes, kids, and more.
