Give your tech a spring refresh with these must-have gadgets
I'm back at KING5 TV in Seattle to discuss the tech that makes life easier, faster and smarter! We always have so much fun!
SEATTLE — Spring — the season of fresh starts, deep cleans, and yes, finally ditching those winter blues is here! But why stop at swapping out your wardrobe when you can give your tech life a major refresh, too?
This season’s hottest gadgets and smartest innovations are all about making life easier, faster, and a whole lot safer.
Here’s what we showed off this morning!
1. Vitesy Shelfy
This smart device extends the shelf life of food, reduces bacteria, and eliminates unpleasant odors in refrigerators. Shelfy uses advanced air purification technology to keep food fresher for up to 12 extra days. It does this by degrading the molecules responsible for ripening fruits and vegetables, which cuts down on circulating bacteria by 99% in just 10 minutes. This process not only keeps food fresher and healthier but also helps prevent mold and rotten smells.
2. BIRD BUDDY — Smart Bird Feeder Pro
I am obsessed with Bird Buddy’s AI-powered smart bird feeder! It’s a “world first” — transforming backyard birdwatching into an interactive, educational, and super entertaining experience. This Smart Bird Feeder Pro features a new and improved high-def camera that captures slow-motion videos, and 2K live streams plus it can tell you what kind of bird you’re looking at in real-time on the app. Also? The solar roof and extended battery storage keep it all running for weeks without needing a charge. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this Smart Hummingbird Feeder Pro too — it attracts, identifies, and captures high-quality images of North America’s most jaw-dropping aerial acrobats. Frameworthy, bragworthy. Must-have.
3. Nike x Hyperice Recovery Shoes
*Pre-orders are going to start soon*
These odd-looking boots heat up, vibrate, and massage your feet and ankles with dynamic air-compression on demand.
4. Irrigreen Sprinklers
I have these at my home on Whidbey Island — they’re AI sprinklers that basically “print water” only to the areas of your lawn that need it. That means no more watering the cement or the side of your house. They cut back on the average outdoor water use by about 50%, and you can cut your water bill in half, too. This is so freaking cool: it digitally maps out your lawn so it can be really strategic getting water precisely where it needs to go. It also uses live weather data, so it does not turn on when it’s raining or the ground’s already saturated, but boosts up its watering in the dryer months. free tool on the Irrigreen website that gives you an estimate of how much water you can save and how much it costs to install.

5. Astro “Ai” L7 Tire Inflator
Check out the Astro”Ai”L7 tire inflator ($39)
It’s an on-the-go emergency tire pump that supports up to eight car tire refills — yet it weighs only about one pound and fits in your cup holder. It’s great for bike tires, basketballs, and all the things you need to add air to from time to time. Also great? Accurate pressure readings on the screen here mean it’s a lot safer — no blowouts — and it’s really fast — only takes about 90 seconds to inflate the average bike tire (on sale right now for $28). Alo has this cool screen that updates pressure data 200 times per second, so you don’t overpump your tires.
– Emergency Tool: Includes a flashlight with 3 modes (flashlight, SOS, strobe) and USB-C/USB ports for device charging.
