Woolets

[Jazzy]

There are few things more annoying than losing or forgetting your wallet.

And even fewer than the friend who cannot cough up for a round of drinks because they ‘left their wallet at home’.

So an American company has devised a solution, designing a wallet fitted with a mini-sensor to prevent it getting lost.

Delaware-based firm Wooletco raised £108,000 on Kickstarter to fund the accessory, known as a Woolet, which will cost £67.

It syncs to a phone over Bluetooth, with a distance tracker and a ‘howling’ alarm among its features.

If left behind, a linked-up phone will vibrate – and vice-versa if the phone is lost.

It has a maximum range of 200 ft, and works with iOS and Android.

Woolets can be pre-ordered from Kickstarter.

The devices are expected to ship in May this year.

So no excuses for turning up to the pub without any cash.

Thoughts?

Would you have to put it on the charger at night?
