Aurora Touch - Colour-Changing Clock


The Aurora Touch from Mayhem is the coolest, most colourful alarm clock we've seen (and we've seen plenty).  It's a versatile and tactile little gadget that's gorgeous to look at and great value for money.

With 3 light modes - 'touch', 'night light' & 'demo' - it's ideal for all occasions.

The Aurora illuminates in 12 vivid LED colours.  In 'night light' mode, it automatically changes to a bright new color every hour.

In 'touch' mode, a quick tap lights the Aurora up long enough to catch the time in the wee small hours;  The color it lights up depends on the hour - "Blimey! I can't believe it's quarter past blue already...".

'Demo' mode is for mood lighting - or simply showing off with a dazzling display of light and colour.

Though undoubtedly funky, this magical mood cube is also a highly functional clock:  Time and date functions display clearly on its large back-lit digital LDC display, and its alarm - a double whammy of sound and colourful flashing - will make sure you wake when you need to.

It's a supercool yet reliable clock for the bedside or the desktop, a fun night light for kids, an excellent travel alarm clock, and a stylish and innovative gadget for guys and girls of all ages.

The Aurora Touch Clock comes smartly boxed, making it a top Christmas gift and a brilliant stocking filler.

Cool Christmas Lights at Electric Planet


'Tis the season to chase away the winter gloom, Electric Planet style!

Yep, it's time to start thinking about decorating your home, dressing your tree and getting that festive feeling going at work as you count down the days till Chrimbo.  And that's where we come in...

You'll find stylish, high-quality seasonal lighting galore at ElectricPlanet.co.uk this Christmas.  There are lights to suit all tastes and budgets, plus loads of funky original gift ideas, top Secret Santa loot and superb stocking fillers, too.

Our Christmas Lights category is the place to start.  It's an eclectic selection of attractive indoor and outdoor string lights, colour-changing mobiles and exquisite LED lights of all shapes and sizes.

Kids will love our colour-phasing Mini Glow Lights, available in Snowman, Snowflake, Angel and Christmas Tree designs (as well as the ever-popular Butterfly).  And, on the subject of butterflies, our fabulous Butterfly Magic suction lights will impress and entertain at Xmas and all year long with their beautiful LED & fibre optic colour phasing.

Other festive favourites include our majestic Ice Star hanging LED light, our iconic acrylic Angel, Moon and Snowflake LED Glow Lights, our Think Gadgets mobiles, and our versatile gift-or-tree-enhancing Magic Cube Lights.

If lava lamps are your thing, you'll be glad to hear that we still have a limited number of the stunning, recently discontinued (and, as a result, highly collectable) Clear / White Mathmos Astro, Telstar and Astrobaby lamps in stock.  Snow white lava is cool all year round, but particularly fitting as retro-modern Yuletide mood lighting.

If it's classy and glamorous Christmas lights you're after, look no further than our designer Crystal Royale and Glitzy Crystal lights.  They'll effortlessly add a touch of luxury to any room.

And don't forget to jazz up your laptop and desktop computer displays with our sensational USB Chain Lights.  They'll keep you feeling Christmassy while you do the rest of your online Xmas shopping.

As always, we'll get your lights to you quicker and more efficiently than Mr Claus himself, and you won't have to suffer the stress of crowded high street shops or soulless supermarkets - or their agonisingly cheesy Christmas music.

So take a look at our Christmas Lights and, while you're there, why not be inspired by our Christmas Gift Ideas?  We've organised them into five main groups - Gifts For Her, Gifts For Him, Gifts For Kids, Secret Santa & Stocking Fillers - to make Christmas shopping that bit easier.  We're nice like that. =]

Season's greetings!

Hitman Hal - Movement-Triggered Mobster


"Show the big guy some respect, huh!"

Hitman Hal is the gangster who aims to please.  He’s the cold-blooded cupboard contract killer who's popped more peeps than you've had hot dinners. Better be on your guard - Hal could be hiding anywhere.  Trigger his movement sensor and you’re toast.

Hide Hal in a suitable spot for a hit (cupboard, cabinet, fridge or behind a closed door - preferably somewhere fairly quiet), switch him on and wait for your unsuspecting target to be ambushed.

As soon as his infra-red motion detector senses movement, Hitman Hal will raise his Tommy gun and let rip with a torrent of noisy 'gunfire' (complete with flashing red LED Tommy gun) and maniacal laughter.

He'll also unleash a stream of characteristic gangsta abuse - any one of 5 fiercly funny mob hitman phrases.

Leave this peerless prank toy lying in wait for friends, family members and co-workers (with a sense of humour), and watch them jump out of their skins, time and time again, while you and everyone else have a great laugh.

Hitman Hal is the gangsta gift that keeps on giving ('bullets' & abuse) this Christmas.  Guaranteed to light up the festive season (with machine gun fire).

"Eat lead, Punk!"
