Take your grilling absolutely anywhere in the world thanks to the Una Grill

UNA Grill: the portable charcoal grill to carry anywhere
‘Tis the season for grilling and now, everyone can get in on the fun. Regardless of whether or not you have a grill (or really, the space for one), a new Kickstarter project wants you to get outside and get cooking. Meet the Una Grill, the portable charcoal grill that will go anywhere you go, and promises to be smart, compact, and easy-to-clean to boot.

What the grill lacks in size it promises to make up for in flavor — after all, just because the grill is small does not mean your imagination has to be (and you can certainly set your imagination free with these gadgets). Measuring just a foot and a half long and half a foot wide, the Una Grill is easy to bring with you, whether your destination is a campsite at the end of a hike, the lake, or just your balcony. Weighing in at just eight pounds, it will probably be more laborious to get the charcoal around than the grill itself.

The lid of the Una Grill doubles as a stand when you are ready to start cooking, and you can actually set the Una at two different grill heights. Just fill the charcoal grill with charcoal, cover it with the cooking grate, and lay your meat, seafood, and vegetables on top.

Components of this portable grill are also dishwasher-safe, so once you are finished with your outdoor fun, you can just throw the whole thing in the machine without a second thought.

The Una Grill team says that it is already tested functioning prototypes and is now taking to Kickstarter to raise funds in order to scale up production and manufacturing. Thus far, the campaign has raised more than $27,000, exceeding its initial goal, and you still have more than three weeks to back the project, too.

You can pre-order an Una Grill now from Kickstarter for $111, with an estimated delivery date of October.

The Greenworks GPW3001 Pro electric pressure washer, placed outside.

If you've been on the internet and seen a bunch of pressure washer clips and are now considering grabbing one yourself, you'll be happy to know that there is a huge range of them to pick from. That includes some great budget-oriented versions to dip your toe in and are still good for cleaning stains and cleaning up stuff. That's why we've gone out and collected some of our favorite washer deals for you below, including some of the best pressure washers for cars, which you do have to be a bit careful with not to strip the paint or clearcoat.
Greenworks Pressure Washer Combo Kit -- $110 $220 50% off

While this Greenworks power washer doesn't have as high a PSI, around 1,900 PSI, it is a lot more portable and a great option if you want something that's smaller and easier to take around with you. It comes with a 35-foot power chord and a 20-foot hose, so you get quite a bit of distance. If you are somewhere rural and need to clean stuff that doesn't have a power cable nearby, this is perfect. Besides that, we also appreciate that this comes with an 11-inch surface cleaner, which isn't something common with a lot of other power washers, even more expensive ones. Just be aware that you do need a My Best Buy subscription to be able to get the discount.

Juiced Bikes sold at auction for $1.2 million, report says
The Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 adds more power, upgraded tires, and an improved battery to the popular moped style e-bike.

Juiced Bikes, the San Diego-based maker of e-bikes, has been sold on an auction website for $1,225,000, according to a report from Electrek.Digital Trends recently reported how the company was showing signs of being on the brink of bankruptcy. The company and its executives had remained silent, while customer inquiries went unanswered and its website showed all products were out of stock. In addition, there were numerous reports of layoffs at the company.Yet, the most convincing sign was that the company’s assets appeared as listed for sale on an auction website used by companies that go out of business.Now, it appears that Juiced Bikes’ assets, including a dozen patents, multiple URLs, and the company’s inventory in both the U.S. and China, have been sold at auction, according to the report. It is likely that the buyer, who remains unknown, can capitalize on the brand and the overall value of the 15-year old company. Founded in 2009 by Tora Harris, a U.S. high-jump Olympian, Juiced Bikes was one of the early pioneers of the direct-to-consumer e-bike brands in the U.S. market.
The company had quickly built a reputation for the versatility of its e-bikes and the durability of their batteries. Over the years, the popularity of models such as the CrossCurrent, HyperScrambler, and RipCurrent only bolstered the brand’s status.Last year, Digital Trends named the Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 as the best moped-style e-bike for 2023, citing its versatility, rich feature set, and performance.Juiced Bikes’ getting sold quickly might be a sign of what consulting firm Houlihan Lokey says is a recovery in the North American e-bike market.
The industry has had a roller-coaster ride during and after the COVID-19 pandemic: A huge spike in demand for e-bikes had combined with disrupted supply chains to create a supply/demand mismatch of “historic proportions," Houlihan Lokey said.
