(UPDATE 1/7 – Reposting as this Kickstarter is currently scheduled to expire on Friday 1/10)
Occasionally I see some interesting travel related products being crowd funded that I think you guys might be interested in. We’ve talked about the Tropicfeel travel shoe, the Cleansebot bacteria killing robot, and the AirThrone travel lounger, among others. Here’s a few of the travel related crowd funded projects that I’ve seen.
Travel related kickstarters:
- IcyFlow 6-in-1 Portable Air Conditioner ($115K already funded; back by February 11th)
- RetraStrap luggage travel strap (already funded; no end date)
- Gravel - Toiletry Bags, Blankets, Backpacks (already funded; no end date)
- Uphold - Pocket-Size Reusable Folding Travel Cutlery (already funded; no end date)
- Sonic Soak: The Ultimate Ultrasonic Cleaning Tool (already funded; no end date)
Today I wanted to talk a bit about the FOLDEAT modular lunchbox, which bills itself as a modular lunchbox that folds into an eating mat. I thought of this as a possible addition to a traveler’s repertoire if you find yourself wanting to carry a packed lunch when you travel. It’s currently on Kickstarter and scheduled to expire in January. All Kickstarter / Indiegogo links in this post may pay me a commission if you boost the project through my link.

Why can’t I buy a Foldeat modular lunchbox? It’s brilliant, yet all the websites turn up blank??!
If they were raising $10000 to make this, yet have raised over half a million, why has the product not been produced yet?
