Gift

[mansoor_]

I need suggestions for a gift, preferably tech, ~£100

gift is for a tech savy teenager,

he doesnt need new pc components or peripherals. 

[Osmium]

Decent Toolkit?

My dad bought me a good toolkit and I love it.

[Shd0w2]

Vengeance K70?

[Hans Christian | Teri]

Good screwdrivers (as in good, that will last him the rest of his life, Bahco, Wera etc etc).

[prolemur]

a raspberry pi or arduino kit

[Austin:P]

Get him the comfiest computer chair from like... Ikea

Sometimes the simplest of things are the most effective. Having a large budget isn't the key to gifts, it's about being savvy with money.

 

To be honest I'd get something from his past or your friendship like in Breaking Bad when Walt got Elliott some Noodles.

Look around some charity shops and some deartment stores and ask store clerks. They are generaly very knowledgable about stuff like that.

 

EDIT: And Alcohol always goes down well. Unless he is religious or teetotal, it doesn't have to be a tech gift.

Maybe some cool gadgets or tech toys?

 

Like an RC helicopter or something cool?

He said he doesn't need peripherals.

 

But nice choice.

 

@topic: What about gadgets or merchandise? In my experience you can't go wrong with stuff people want but aren't willing to buy themselves.

You can always get some headphones or something funny

[Joshua Ondangan]

I'd always love new tools to play with.

 

but hey you can always grab a stripper or prostitute for that money and make him happy in a night or two.

Honestly it may be the most boring think ever to do but just give him the money... Or to fancy it up get him a prepaid credicard or something amongst those lines.

Maybe a new phone case with a battery in it? Or some wall post of video games he plays for his room. Or just buy him a card and let him decide what he wants...

Vengeance K70?

I second this. My K70 is amazing.

I say go for some good headphones. Although headphones in Europe are a bit expensive. The Beyerdynamic DT series is great for the price in Europe but its a little bit over 100. Sennheiser 518 and 558 are good as well. AKG K612 are great as well but not sure how much they cost.
