What you see above is no ordinary router, oh no, it’s Ruckus Wireless’ Zone Flex 7762 $2,000 outdoor router. And no, it’s not made of gold.

Anyways, this router apparently uses integrated BeamFlex Smart Antenna technology that will result in higher performance, extended coverage and a ridiculously high level of consitency. Couple that with its 802.11n technology and built-in heater for those cold nights and you have yourself a perfect outdoor router solution.

Ruckus Wireless markets this particular piece of hardware towards commercial use such as outdoor pool areas at hotels and resorts as it’s a bit expensive to be justified for at-home use

The Orange Power Pump is a compact mobile phone charger for outdoor use. It is essentially a compact generator encased in a sleek black housing that sports a turbine driven by a standard air bed foot pump. The turbine can render enough power to make 5 minutes of call time.

It’s a compact camping accessory which accommodates all (UK) handsets and measures 154mm by 129mm with a height of 47mm making it no bigger than a packet of Wet Wipes. It is also lightweight enough to easily to fit into your backpack.
