A muscle gun that soothes aches and saves lives at the same time? Until now a mere fantasy, made true by Therabody and (RED), the non-profit charity dedicated to ending COVID-19 and HIV/AIDS. The Theragun PRO is the most powerful and advanced model on the market, with speed options that range from 1750 and 2400 percussions per minute. It also features an OLED screen, six different attachments for different areas of the body, and an app that allows you to fine-tune your recovery.
There are two ways to be The Best Guy at the BBQ. You could man the grills all day (an extremely stressful and lonely experience, despite what the lamestream media would have you believe) or you could bring the Perfect Draft Pro along and simply put your feet up. Guests can pour their own pints of beer from the machine, and you can monitor the temperature of the six-litre keg for optimum crispness via your smartphone app. Easy. You can choose from over 50 of them, including some of our favourite breweries like Tiny Rebel, Dark Arts and Mikkeller.
Techs Rich and Powerful Are So Over Their Gadgets
I'm a Staff Writer on the Wealth team at Forbes, covering billionaires and their wealth. My reporting has led me to an S&P 500 tech firm in the plains of Oklahoma; a fighter-jet-flying payments entrepreneur in New Jersey; a family-owned firm making insulin pens and vials for Covid-19 vaccines in northern Italy; and many more stories across the U.S. and the world. See my work here and on Twitter @giacomotognini and on LinkedIn @giacomotognini. Tips: gtognini@forbes.com
I'm a San Francisco-based Assistant Managing Editor with a focus on the world's richest people. I oversee coverage of the world's billionaires and the richest self made women in the U.S. For more than a decade I was one of two editors in charge of the massive reporting effort that goes into Forbes' annual World's Billionaires list and the annual Forbes 400 list of the richest Americans. My reporting has won several awards: In 2014, I won an Overseas Press Club award for an article I wrote about Saudi Arabian billionaire investor Prince Alwaleed bin Talal; I also won a Gerald Loeb Award with co-author Rafael Marques de Morais for an article we wrote about Isabel dos Santos, the eldest daughter of Angola's former president. Over more than two decades, reporting for Forbes has taken me to 17 countries on four continents, from the streets of Manila to palaces in Saudi Arabia and Mexico's presidential residence.

Every movie, from Tim Burton's Batman to Matt Reeves' The Batman, portrays Bruce Wayne's expensive cache of equipment, gadgets, and gear. However, the various film incarnations of the caped crusader seem to be unclear with exactly how rich the Wayne family is and exactly how deep their bank accounts go, although all seem to be deep enough to afford a fully functional Batcave. Considering the socioeconomic nightmare of Gotham City, it seems like Bruce Wayne would do much more good if he just spent his money on education and social benefits rather than bat-related accessories.
The incredibly intelligent Reed Richards AKA Mr. Fantastic is not only the leader of The Fantastic Four, but his genius has managed to gain him a great deal of wealth over the years. Earning his degree at only 20 years old, Reed is responsible for a number of inventions that earned him a great deal of money. On top of this, Reed invested the money he made into scientific advancement, helping the U.S. government prepare for any war that may come their way.
Aquaman may not be making money like Reed Richards is, but he comes from a long line of old money. As ruler of the oceans, Aquaman rules over 70% of the Earth. Along with his royal status, Aquaman has access to millions of shipwrecks all over the ocean, home to billions of dollars worth of treasure, which he can access at any time along with anything else of value within the ocean. In the first issue of his New 52 comic storyline, Aquaman changes a waitress's life by tipping her gold doubloons he acquired from a sunken pirate ship. Thanks to this, Aquaman is the richest superhero in the DC Universe, greatly surpassing Batman.
While it may be some time before we get a week's life out of our phones, development is progressing well. We've collected all the best battery discoveries that could be with us soon, from over the air charging to super-fast 30-second re-charging. Hopefully, you'll be seeing this tech in your gadgets soon.
The uBeam concept was stumbled upon by 25-year-old astrobiology graduate Meredith Perry. She started the company that will make it possible to charge gadgets over the air using a 5mm thick plate. These transmitters can be attached to walls, or made into decorative art, to beam power to smartphones and laptops. The gadgets just need a thin receiver in order to receive the charge.
IBM and ETH Zurich and have developed a much smaller liquid flow battery that could potentially be used in mobile devices. This new battery claims to be able to not only supply power to components, but cool them at the same time. The two companies have discovered two liquids that are up to the task, and will be used in a system that can produce 1.4 Watts of power per square cm, with 1 Watt of power reserved for powering the battery.
Scientists have found that current batteries can in fact be pushed beyond their recommended limits without affecting performance or overheating. Maybe we don't need any of the other new batteries mentioned at all!
