TipAlert High Tech Gadget Brings Peace to Gender Wars this Holiday Season
Ottawa, Canada (PRWEB) December 16, 2016 -- It’s the middle of the night and she shuffles to the washroom in the dark, hoping not to fully wake. “Splash.” He did it again.
Wives, girlfriends, siblings and moms alike ask the same age-old question: “How can I get him to put the seat down?” With TipAlert®, inventor Al Howard believes he has the answer.
TipAlert® is a tech-smart microelectronic device that attaches to the underside of any toilet seat. The peel-and-stick gadget is family friendly, hygienic and enclosed in a water resistant casing. When the seat is left in the upright position it lets you know about the bathroom faux pas with sound and flashing light. Should guys forget to put the seat down, TipAlert®:
• Notifies them with music and voice messages, including a woman’s soft appeal
• Reminds boys with a happy tune and mom’s friendly greeting
• Cheers when the seat goes down, and
• Alerts women with a flash every 15 seconds when the seat is left up in the night
Howard came up with the idea for TipAlert as a newlywed. He soon learned his bathroom manners left something to be desired. He started asking other couples if they had the same problem and dis- covered that the toilet seat problem is a sore point in many families. Last summer he asked 1000 women to share their views in an online poll. The result? Seven out of ten women say toilet seats left up are high on their list of pet peeves.
Howard has spent the last six years developing and testing the product with all kinds of users.
“Most women say it’s not a problem until they fall into the bowl at night,” he says. “Then it’s an issue.” Howard says TipAlert solves the toilet seat problem once and for all. It is a novelty item for couples, a finishing touch for toddlers in training or a stocking stuffer for friends, available online for $9.95.
