I just saw this product called

, and I thought it looked pretty neat. As someone who loses stuff from time to time, I'd personally find it very beneficial, especially my car keys. It's only $19 per Tile and has it's own app on iOS which uses Bluetooth to find what you're looking for (what the Tile is attached to), and will basically tell you if you're hot or cold in terms of it's location relative to you. It has a 50 to 150 foot radius, however if someone else with the Tile app is in range of yours, it will alert you (and not them).

Here's a video, I thought it was pretty cool.

It's affordable. I can't wait for their community to get bigger. When they have reached a large amount of users, I will then consider buying one. Love it, though.

Fantastic. I did notice a clip in the video where a guy was rummaging through a washing basket, how does it stand up against water damage? That's what I'd like to know

Still a great idea. I also like the hole so it can be stylised like a keyring

that's a really cool idea, reminds me of Lowjack. they should integrate this into laptops, wouldn't be hard, when I take apart laptops there's often quite a bit of unused space.

Good share!

This does look pretty neat. Also interested in how it stands up against water etc.

$20 for this? It's decent. I'd stick this on my laptop when taking it elsewhere, great share!

I'd assume it'd be just fine as the device is completely enclosed, as you never have to charge it.

I love it! Looks extremely handy, I might have to get myself one.

 

[Magic]

I don't generally lose things but it would be handy if you did.

 

[Kieren]

That is cheap and extremely handy! I am defiantly thinking about ordering! I'll order and send you guys some feed back I'm just going to see if its available in the UK as some products are launched in the US for a limited time. Nice find

I love the product, if it was worth a bit less ( Maybe $10 ) I could see myself buying it.

This came back to me about 20 minutes ago.
They should put these in remotes. Like seriously that needs to happen.

Not necessarily, just buy a Tile and stick it to the remote. That, after all, is the purpose of them.

and when the adhesive fails? plus the remote for the Roku fits perfectly in my hand I don't want a big square on it. Same thing with any other remote I use.

It's not even half a centimetre in depth lol?

width and height? it's wider than the roku remote that I keep losing, and would stick out like small wings on a directv remote (the bottom is rounded).

I could see this only taking off in America. Kind of leaving the UK out of it a bit.
