Name the Thing Contest – 188

at 7:12 pm. Filed under Contests

guess_this_188


The prize this week is a solar flashlight, if you want to use this as a flashlight you better charge it during the day and not keep it hidden in a drawer. :) I am thinking that the housing could make for a very small surface mount project. Not sure if the solar cell would have enough power to energize a very low current circuit but I would think it should. This contest will run for one week (October 9 – 14, 2011). Ending time is based on central standard time. To enter, identify what is going on in the pictured above.

Please do not give the answer in the comments.

Send an email to contest @ hackedgadgets.com with “Name the Thing Contest” as the subject, and the message body consisting of:

  • The name of the item in the above picture
  • An example of what the item pictured above can be used for

The winner will be chosen at random from all of the correct entries.

  13. Nardella Says:

    Would it be too much to ask for a post to the blog once this contest is over? I’ve been asking for months, there must be some really good stories behind these things. Please tell them to us!

  14. Alan Parekh Says:

    Hi Nardella,

    Once the contest is over the winner is added to the contest body and the item is also disclosed. There was an error in the last contest date so it will run for 2 weeks (instead of the normal 1 week).

    Sometimes there is a bit of a delay posting the winner and what it is but all 186 of the previous ones can be seen.
