While we compiled the list of the useful gadgets that most cars could do with, here is the list of a few more. Whilst last time, we had the luxury of listing out the prices of each device, this time around, these devices don’t usually carry a price tag and one would have to directly contact the manufacturer to glean out this information. Many of these gadgets make our life easy during the long process of driving and sometimes add to the pure driving pleasure that some machines afford to deliver. Some of the gadgets even contribute directly to the driving experience. Listed below are some of the gadgets.

Car Cleaner :
The title may be a bit misleading since this is not about car cleaning but about shampooing the car’s seats. It is called as M26 IS. The solution or chemical can be sprayed on the car’s seats through a solution tank. The seats are completely wetted by this method and all one has to do is scrub the seats and all the dirty water would then have too be picked up. It is a multipurpose unit since drying, washing and also cleaning of the upholstery or the floor can also be done by it. The water solution tank is removable for easy refill and the extraction accessories are kit specific. It also works as a dry vacuum cleaner and also a wet one.

Flip Keys :
The blade of the key can be folded inside the shell. The flip keys also fit in a sensor/transponder and also a remote circuit. They not only look stylish but are also compact and convenient units to carry around. Most of the manufacturers now give OEM remote devices and even these can be easily converted into a flip key. Complexity of the remote circuits plus odd positioning of the buttons require button replacement or entire redesigning or even reprogramming of the new remotes. This particular Flip Key can cost anything between Rs 1.5k to Rs 2k. For more information, one can logon to www.duplicatekeys.in.

There are some tools or gadgets like the parking sensors, reverse camera, car refrigerators and inverters that make life easier for all. There is a certain car refrigerator by BCPL which can actually make ice on the go in a car. It can be put into position by adjusting the seatbelt and operated by plugging it into the cigarette lighter present in the car. A 7 inch screen on the central console displays the images as also audio details from the reverse camera and parking sensors. They even tell you the distance from the nearest object which the car would hit. This helps prevents accidents or dents in the car. Moreover with the growing hectic lifestyle of many, probable neck problems would also not worsen with this tool in hand. A universal 230 V AC plug is what BCPL’s car inverter promises. It can be used to charge the laptop, DVD player, handycams and stuff. Into the cigarette lighter, one has to plonk this inverter and you have a 230V AC plug point ready at your disposal.
