Wyze Cam Pan v4 Brings 4K Resolution to Everyday Home Security Without the Usual High Price Tag

By Bill Smith March 15, 2026

Security cameras flood store shelves, but good 4K options are few and far between, especially if you’re on a tight budget. Wyze changed that with the Cam Pan v4, priced at $46 (was $60), the first of their cameras to record in Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 quality). This update makes a significant impact; the footage is significantly crisper than what you get with most inexpensive pans. Zooming in on details such as a face or a license plate creates a completely different image. That is especially true in retrospect.

Apple’s MacBook Neo has clearly struck a nerve, and it isn’t hard to see why people are already wondering what those same ideas might look like in a desktop form.

Maker Builds 90,000-Watt Electric Scooter and Hit 99.4 MPH

By Bill Smith March 15, 2026

Few electric scooters can touch 70 mph, let alone flirt with 100. Determined to close that gap himself, President Chay spent several weeks in his workshop piecing together something truly out of the ordinary. At the heart of it were three QS273 motors, each capable of putting out 30,000 watts on their own, adding up to a staggering 90,000 watts at peak output. Power came from three separate battery packs, each running at 72 volts and 45 amp hours, with every single pack requiring 600 individual lithium ion cells to build.

Texture grips on the handles, triggers, and bumpers help you maintain a solid grip on the device even when things get hot and you’re sweating bullets in those online matches.

By Jackson Chung March 14, 2026

NGC 5134 is a scenic spiral galaxy 65 million light-years away from where we live, which NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope was fortunate enough to capture in stunning detail. The way this image was created is actually pretty cool: two of James Webb’s devices combined their near-infrared and mid-infrared data to produce an extremely clear composite view.

Colin Furze Gives Skateboarding a Magnetic Lift

By Bill Smith March 14, 2026

Colin Furze, a self-taught engineer, has a flair for coming up with new ways to use magnets. One comment from a viewer spurred an idea, and he set to work transforming a regular skateboard into something that appears to be just hovering above the ground. He’d already built a bike with magnetic suspension, but he wanted to apply the concept to four wheels, giving the ride a gentle, floating feel without needing standard springs or shocks.
