Water Games Technologies Red Diamond bath tub features HDTVs, cellular control

We're no strangers to out-there bathroom fixtures, but the $47,000 Red Diamond bathtub from Water Games Technologies is probably a new low high in powder room decadence. The screaming-red tub features multicolor lighting, a computer-controlled heating system that maintains your desired water temperature, an automatic disinfection system and built-in massager. Of course, that's what any peasant's tub offers -- the real action is in the two retractable HDTVs, Swarovski-encrusted champagne holder, and built-in GSM module that lets you call your bathtub and get things ready for some splashy time from afar. No word on availability, but if you're in the market we're certain your butler can figure it out for you.

If they invented technology to stop you from wrinkling after an hour, I may never leave the bath tub.

But if you never leave the bath tub, how are you going to make $47,000?

Perhaps this is possible already? Maybe try an isotonic liquid? 5% dextrose? Normal saline? N/5 + 4% Dextrose?

Though having a hot salty/sweet bath could be weird.

I don't even want to know how the matching toilet would be equiped.

[Gad Get Posted May 24th 2008 7:37AM]

Well, I'll tell you anyway. It would be bright red, feature an automatic disinfection system, two retractable HDTV's, with one on each side of the toilet, multicolor lights inside the bowl, a computer-controlled heating system to keep just the right water temperature, a GSM module that lets you call your toilet and get it ready for a little splashy time from afar, a Swarovski-encrusted champagne holder, and a built-in massager.

Given my former roommate, I'd settle for three little words:

Remote. Courtesy. Flush.

Scary

So true... and ironically, this $47K wunderkind doesn't even get you clean! Owing to osmosis and Brownian motion, you actually emerge "Swarovski-encrusted",,,

People with way too much spending money.

Ha! Finally someone gets the joke. I'm glad you're not a diva, unlike the many that have failed this ever so ticklish test of mine.

[Gad Get Posted May 24th 2008 7:45AM]

Am I the first??

[Gundam Tablet Posted May 24th 2008 8:16AM]

Yep I believe so, but I wouldn't take my word for it =)

Isn't that the same thing Darth Vader had in Episode 5? Only his came with a latch on top to put his helmet on ^^

That wasn't a bath tub.

[Gad Get Posted May 24th 2008 10:27AM]

LOL!

This should never have left the concept phase.

[(Unverified) Posted May 24th 2008 8:35PM]

I worked that out a while ago... Still, should have recorded it, Congratulations.

See if anyone else can work it out...

[(Unverified) Posted May 25th 2008 12:31AM]

that raises the question of a waterproof remote.... hmm

[Cupajoe Posted May 25th 2008 12:46AM]

You know I have to admit, most of that stuff is ridiculous but I like the feature that keeps the bath temperature constant. I think more bathes should have that.

[(Unverified) Posted May 25th 2008 1:29AM]

I had to snicker when I saw the "Water Games" moniker. Then I realized I was confused with "Water Sports" (which would have been much funnier if this were a shower not bath).

[biggerx Posted May 26th 2008 2:08PM]

you can play "water sports" in a bathtub. *wink*

Although technology is the triumph of the human race, when productive energy is put into items of luxury and glamour the outcome can be unnecessary and seemingly disturbing for some. This is bathtub is not all bad of course, it explores new innovations in technology and puts them to practical use. Such as the feature that keeps the water temperature constant. However much of what this bath does is feed the human ego, compiling all we can to one very simple household item, a big bowl that can hold water. in short, our time and minds can be put into inventions and innovations that can really serve the human kind entirely, not just the upper class
