Default Coolest gadget?

There has been an influx (is that a word??) of new hunting gear, gadgets if you will, to hit the archery market in the past, say, 3 years. I know alot of them are gimmicks and pretty much worthless, but what would you say is one of the best gizmo's to hit the market recently?

I'm saying hands down the Bohning Blazer vane.

thermacell wins my vote, though i love blazers as well.

thermacell is a mosquitto repellent. not a spray but a little device that uses butane to heat a mat of insect repellents. it gives off smoke, and gets rid of all the skeeters around you, i garauntee it. just google it, and buy you one if you ever have problems with mosquitos, nothing works even half as good as the thermacell.

another for thermacell,

Part of why I was slow to take up bowhunting in years past was where I hunt it is teaming with mosquitoes and gnats in the early bow season. I thought dousing myself with mosquito dope was dumb for trying to get deer close and the constant buzzing in my ears was driving me insane and made me move too much. I know there are bug suits, but you just can't beat the thermacell. Fire it up and focus on hunting.

For those that don't know, Thermacell is really only good for stand or blind hunting, as it takes a few minutes to ward them off. It is also good for camping or other outdoor stuff where you might stay in one spot for a while.
