    Tokyo-based crap gadget maker Thanko is at it again. This time, the company is giving us the USB Seat Air [JP], which is nothing but a butt cooler cushion for office chairs. It’s the last Thanko product in a long line of gadgets that either cools off or heats up parts of your body.

    All you need to do is to place the cushion on your seat, plug it into your computer via USB and let the cushion cool your behind for as long as you like (the cable is 148cm long). The cushion is sized at 49 x 50.5 cm.

    Thanko already started the Seat Air in its Japanese online store (price: $45). If you’re interested in getting one for some reason, ask import/export specialist (and Thanko partner) Geek Stuff 4 U to get one for you.
