Collaborating for a Greener Future We are firm believers in collaborating with organizations that share a similar vision. Second Harvest is dedicated to growing an efficient food recovery network to reduce the environmental impact of avoidable food waste. In Canada, $49 billion worth of food is wasted every year. By supporting Second Harvest, we are helping to redirect that surplus edible food to the people in our communities who need it most. The Hero Sweepstakes IMGadgets didn't just want to watch from the sidelines; we wanted to fuel the movement. We were honoured to contribute to the sweepstakes by donating a Gyrocopters Flash 3.0 Electric Scooter (valued at $749). We look forward to offering our high-quality products to the winners and participants who step up to donate. It is inspiring to see individuals come forward to contribute to such a vital cause, and we are glad to have joined them in this initiative.

Prepare Preparing for back to school can be stressful so it's important to start as soon as possible. Setting yourself up with a monitor/computer screen is one of the most important things. It's beneficial to have a computer where you can get work done, have videos calls and also have some down time at the end of the night. Investing in the right technology now can make the school year even more rewarding. Although back to school may not be the same as other years due to the pandemic, it's still important to make the most out of it. This year, a few online classes may still be taking place. Which is why it's important to invest in a strong video calling tool with a sturdy tripod and LED light. Make those video calls and study sessions count!    Get Organized & Don't Miss A Thing  Having the right pair of Bluetooth headphones when going back to school is something we often forget about. Listening to music before or after school is a great way to relax. Bluetooth headphones are also great for online classes or video calls.  Show Up in Style Showing up in style to school has been everyone's dream at least once. Whether it's new clothes, shoes or a sweet new ride. The trendiest gadget right now has to be a hoverboard or an electric scooter for commuting in style. They're fast, affordable and obviously look super cool!   

We're sure everyone has wondered what gift they should give their loved ones during birthdays or Christmas. Why not a hoverboard? This gift is guaranteed to put a smile on everyone's face! The excitement of ripping off the wrapping paper and receiving a hoverboard can't go wrong. Hoverboards have been very popular for the last few years and the craze isn't dying down anytime soon. Without a doubt, kids love them, and so do adults! 

Do you ever wonder how some people can create content that seems flawless? It most likely has to do with the behind-the-scenes ring light we can't see. Ring lights are used by mostly anyone who creates content, such as videos and pictures. The ring light is every influencers best friend, it gives you a balanced lighting effect with no shadows. Continue reading below to learn about the advantages and functions of ring lights. Emphasize Details  Without a doubt, we've all wished for better lighting at least once. This is where the ring light comes in. Ring lights are known to balance out blemishes and remove shadows. The most popular ring light is the 10" selfie ring light. It comes with 3 colours, warm, cool white and daylight. These colours allow you to choose how you want to emphasize certain aspects of the content you are creating. There is more flexibility and experimentation with this feature.  Video Production and Tutorials Creating video content has gotten a lot easier with the help of ring lights and LED lights. Realistically when trying to create low-budget tutorials and videos, ring lights and all-in-one vlog kits are a wise decision. They're easy to set up and use and allow you to attach your smartphone in the center for balanced lighting. Simply turn on your lights, sit back and record tutorials without stressing about lighting. Convenience Surely enough, most people have tried to take pictures and may have used their smartphone flashlight to increase lighting at least once. Did you know you can buy portable ring lights? These ring lights are not as big as the original 10" ring lights but have the same features and advantages. They have 3 different colours selections as well, and can easily be controlled with a remote. They can clip to a desk and plugin through the USB wire. This ring light is all about convenience!

Staying healthy at home during these uncertain times can be a challenge. With gyms being closed and outdoor activities being limited, we can oftentimes start to sink into our work from home routines. It's difficult to balance everything in our day-to-day lives but following a few simple steps now can help us in the long run.

We are without a doubt going through uncertain times, but do you know what doesn't need to be uncertain? The fun you can experience with a swimming pool safely in your backyard! Did you know, that due to high demand, swimming pools are selling out quickly?...

With the current state of this panorama (Covid), there are some of us that are able to return to work, or are able to work remotely. For the lucky ones that have been, or are now working from home, there's a special kind of love/hate relationship that comes with it. One the one hand you're always home; no more worrying about getting up early to have enough time to get to work, preparing lunch, putting on work attire, and being free to choose your work setting, all from the comfort of your home. On the other hand you're always home, which can make you a little stir-crazy after some time consistently being in the same environment.  However, there are ways to counter the crazy by adding some little changes to your typical work day routine. Go For a Walk While You Work  I know when first reading that, it doesn't make any sense at all, how can you walk while you work ?? But, there's a way to do so that's a lot easier than it sounds. If you're not aware, sitting -whether at a desk or elsewhere- for long periods of time is not beneficial to your health. With a walking pad treadmill, you can simply go for walk whenever you feel to stretch your legs without abandoning your tasks. The sleek and foldable design allows it to fit easily under your desk, with built-in roller wheels so you can transport it to your desired place to walk. Get your steps as you work; two birds with one stone.  Do More with Less Depending on the type of work you do, you may need two monitors to help with the efficiency of your work, but what if you could be just as efficient with one? Having a two-in-one monitor makes multi-tasking a lot easier, and saves you desk space to place other work items. The 21:9 screen ratio gives you more display space than the standard 16:9 monitor, along with a wider colour gamut for a more precise visual presentation. You'll be surprised how less fatigued and more efficient your work days become.  Never Miss a Thing One of the top 10 most annoying things is having your phone die on you when you need it, or realizing your phone wasn't charging when you thought it was. One way to avoid these annoyances would be to get yourself a MagSafe charger (granted you have an iPhone 12 or up). The magnetic attachment of this charger to the back of your phone guarantees a consistent charge to your phone, as well as continued mobility so you're still free to use your phone as you wish. Now your work days no longer have that charging stress so you can keep taking work calls, making notes, etc.  Your work days don't need to be dreary or feel tedious, add some spice to your days to make it just a little more durable. 

Family Day is fast approaching, and while most have us have been spending a lot of time with our family members indoors due to the pandemic, now we have a designated day to spend even MORE time with them to make it all the more ✨special ✨. As the pandemic will likely still be happening when this day comes, the family fun may be limited but it's still possible to have fun indoors/outdoors while being safe and COVID friendly. Here's some inspiration for activities you can do that'll make the day memorable: Make a Meal Together Whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner, coming together to whip up a meal is one way to get everybody talking and enjoying each other's company. Each person can even be assigned their own dish (i.e. making the pancakes for breakfast), putting their own style to it if they choose to, and when it's time to eat each person's cooking skills gets put to the taste test. Plus with everyone doing their own thing, there's less chances of arguments from butting heads (...one can hope). Regardless of the dish, it'll be a fun memory to look back on from the laughter, and potential errors that comes with cooking together. Put On a Show This is where everyone gets to put on their acting hats. For however long you wish, each person can act like another family member, dressing like them too to really get into character. You'll be humorously surprised and entertained seeing how other family members view you, but remember to keep it light hearted and fun before feelings get hurt. The idea here is happy memories, not traumatic ones.  Try a Cultural Dish In relation to making a meal together, you can add to the fun by choosing an exotic dish from another country to make. Start by randomly choose a country on a globe or map, read a short introduction to the nation's culture, then finding a signature dish from that country to try making. This is a fun experience to open yourself and family up to other cultures. Create a Time Capsule I'm sure many of you have heard of this activity but probably haven't gotten around to actually try it....now's the time! Make those memories last for years by sealing them in the ground. Simply ask everyone to bring something special that can fit in a small box (i.e. shoe box size), then dig a hole to hide the capsule for a few years. When a couple Family Days have passed, you'll be able to dig up the capsule and look up the memories of a past time with your past selves. It'll definitely bring a pleasant nostalgia.  Make a Family Sized Fort   We all know this as an activity usually meant more for kids, so just imagine the fun trying to build a fort as adults, for adults. You may be thinking "ugh that sounds lame", BUT, stacking pillows, furniture, blankets, etc., in ways to form a structure is not as easy as it sounds, and requires some creativity, enter the fun. And if you want to hit a family member with a pillow while building this fort then hey, it's all part of the fun fort building process.  Having fun and spending time with your family doesn't need to be a chore, there are ways to make that time more enjoyable. I get it, we may not all be family people and that's completely fine, to each their own. The great thing about these ideas is that they can be done with friends too, or even by yourself (except idea #2, unless you get really creative with it). The fact of the matter is, enjoy the day with who you wish, because family is who make it.
