USB Drive to Freshen up your Office
By Madhur Kapoor on Jun 25, 2008 in Gadgets
We have air-fresheners for our car, rooms, bathrooms but we don’t have one for our beloved PC. Debure, a Hong Kong based company thought about it and came up with a USB drive that emits sweet smell when connected to the computer.
The drive has been names as Scent Drive. To use it, just fill its Oil compartment with fragrance oil like rose or pepper mint and plug in the device. The device actually burns the oil which produces a sweet smell
The drive weighs just 5g and is available in two colours, rose red and pepper mint green The cost is just $7.
Wow !! ..
This is Great !! .. A new idea .. An awesome concept !!

Is it a drive or a device? You’ve not mentioned a link, nor its space if it is, or is not.
And what a lame concept of having to actually plug it in to get the smell, totally non-green idea. Find better stuff to post, ffs.

Not a bad idea at all. It could be used for aroma therapy or something. I wonder if it does well outdoors where it’s much more windy?

I think its just a device looking like pen drive. Or else he would have mentioned price v/s capacity. Its just meant for fragrance. Nice one Madhur….
What would be the next idea then? If it is popularized, every web page will have some meta tag/ javascript code indicating what intensity of smell to emit on that particular page…. Howz it?

The smell will be in to the PC? What for? No body breathing inside the PC

Ooo I get it. This is to freshen the room but take electricity power through the USB port. That’s good idea, so we don’t hve to change the battery.

I too have the doubt, does it have any storage space or only emits smell.

Though it is not that useful for everybody, but still it is an innovative product.
@A
it is device.
@jhay
Now thats also a very good suggestion for which it could be used.
@Pavan
Great concept. The Web pages can then be recognized by Smell intensity.
@Jacklin
It just freshens the room
@Nirmal
It doesn’t have any storage space
