wow, anti-eating face mask? that's just epic fail like the chastity belt ....

i'll make up my 10 worst later. how about yours?
 
Some of these are legit inventions... the iphone holder and the battery charger are perfectly reasonable devices
 
The iphone airplane holder is a pretty good idea. Watching movies on my Touch on the plane always sucks, get tired of holding the thing.

What's wrong with the battery charger?

A Battery to charge a Battery. Umm, just get a Battery to go into the device? Bueller.....Beuller....

But then you have to worry about keeping an extra battery charged, as opposed to just slapping a couple of AAs in.

It's a little more useful than that, but not by much. If you have several devices that use that interface, it would be better to have 1 rechargeable unit instead of bunch of spare batteries.

If you have the charger, you can just buy some AAs from anywhere and charge it on the go rather than waiting at some wall outlet to wait for your thing to charge.
 
CELL PHONE BATTERY EXTENDER device.... like for a 50 dollar device the size of the cell phone itself that you attach to your cell phone.... why not carry around a SECOND battery for 5$ from ebay!?!?!?!??!?!?!?

Ummm... You actually don't.

You have one battery in your phone.

You can slap 2 AAs in the charger and keep them in there forever.

1 battery in the phone, another in your pocket. What's so hard about that? Phone battery dies, pull the battery from your pocket.
