High Tech Texan is here with some gift ideas.
We are a few, about a month away.
We're not there yet.
We're about a month away from the holiday season.
So have you decorated your house with lights?
Yes, I have Christmas lights up.
They put them in October and they say just don't turn them on yet.
Right, but then you take them down in January, right?
Okay, the trend right now to make
your house look really cool and sexy year-round,
not just for the holiday season,
is you can put up lights, special kind of lights,
the new LED, not the Clark Griswold type of thing,
and keep them up year-round.
And this right here, Katie, is something that you need for two reasons.
Number one, this is from a company called Govee.
They're one of the world's leaders
when it comes to outdoor illumination,
and they make different types of lighting.
Lighting is great because security.
You don't want your house every night, too.
But the neat thing is, obviously, they're connected to an app.
Connected to your Wi-Fi, you could be anywhere in the world, and you
can actually turn them on, turn them off, and change any colors.
These go on your home year-round, and now, so if you're
celebrating Fourth of July, you can make it red, white, and blue.
So even though this is an A&M box,
it's not just maroon in here, right? There's other colors.
This company, Govee, just did a partnership with your, and I'm glad
you're doing this with me instead of Dave, your Texas A&M Aggies.
They are the official outdoor illumination partner.
So if you go to Kyle Field and right before the fourth quarter,
you see the lights turn on, turn off.
It is Govee Lighting, and they sent me this special A&M.
I know it's killing me to do this, but it's killing me.
So anyway, this is it.
You have burnt orange on the table.
I do have burnt orange on the table.
But guess what Govee did just because of you?
What did they do?
They, with a partnership,
they have given me to give to some lucky viewer.
Two tickets.
Welcome to the Aggie Longhorn Game on Friday, November 27th.
How do they get the tickets?
Hightechtexan.com and my social media.
You'll see a link.
And so we've got a few weeks to go.
And I'm going to say Hook 'em Horns, but you can say
Okay.
I know.
Exactly.
Whatever it is.
All right.
What's this?
Okay.
This is a handheld gaming system.
Listen, if everybody's an Xbox fan,
generally in Xboxes, you have to play it at home in
front of a big monitor.
Nope, not this way.
This is from a company called ROG, Republic of Gamers.
And this is their ROG Ally.
And what it is, it's handheld.
And so now you can, and you can
You can take your same account on Wi-Fi or, you know,
when you're connecting it anywhere you go and play this game.
You could start it at home, finish it on this handheld gaming unit.
This is really, really nice.
So it's not just for kids because a lot of dads may also like this.
ROG, so play on the go, which is good.
Sweet.
All right, here's your burnt orange.
This is burnt orange.
It is not that I'm promoting burnt orange right here.
But this is from when you travel right now,
it's time to make sure that all of your suitcases
and all your gear are up to snuff.
This is from a company called Bellroy.
Now, when you travel, a few tips.
This is a TSA lock right here in the front.
So you have to have that, too.
This has sturdy wheels.
This has the handle that comes out.
But one of the things that I want to show you over here,
do you ever put an air tag or something,
a tracker in your luggage?
A lot of people actually can do this.
And so I'm going to open this up over here.
Right inside, you've got nice little pockets that come.
But take a look at this.
If you want to undo this right here.
Yeah.
This has a little tiny, this is an AirTag,
this has a little tiny built-in AirTag
right over there with the little thing.
When you're traveling, I always recommend you do this
because more and more airlines are actually
tracking these things over here.
So come to Bellroy.
Do they make other colors?
No.
No, I think it's all bird orange.
Are you serious?
No, no.
They have a ton of colors.
They have a ton of other gear other than suitcases, too.
I'm messing with you.
All right, what's next?
Last one.
Okay, this is for the video enthusiasts.
More and more people, they're doing their social media thing.
Instead of just holding your camera up,
holding your phone up, this is a gimbal.
And you've probably seen these professionals.
These are getting relatively inexpensive.
This is from a company called Hohem.
And then what you do, it's got a little tiny little monitor over here.
And so what it does, it stabilizes everything.
And so as I turn it on this will make sure
when you're running and when you're bouncing
It also has AI built in and actually can follow and track people.
But anyway, this is how you make nice and smooth little moves.
You can also even shoot a movie on this thing.
Maybe just over $100.
But if you're really trying to get into the video
and what you want on Instagram and TikTok, this is a really great gift.
So something for the holiday season, including a ticket giveaway.
That's awesome.
Go to your website, hightechtexan.com to win those tickets.
And enter.
Start shopping.
Yeah, for sure.
We'll be right back.
