Real Life Batman Gadgets to Prepare for The Batman (2024)
It’s been a long day. You’re curled up on the sofa under a weighted blanket, ready to watch Netflix when you glance out the window. It’s the bat signal. Suddenly, your phone blows up with texts from Commissioner Gordon. The Penguin is making trouble. Again. You spring into action. But, which Batman gadgets do you choose?
Before fighting crime, you’ll need gear. We asked Alfred to give us a list of real-life Batman gadgets that you can use in your daily life whether you’re tussling with the Riddler or looking for a way to stream The Batman (2022).
- NordVPN: What does a VPN (virtual private network) have to do with a potential Catwoman attack? More than you think. To stream the newest Batman flick from anywhere, you’ll need a solid VPN. We recommend NordVPN a tried, tested, and true VPN that allows you to watch Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz battle it out in the latest iteration of DC Comics’ caped crusader.
“I was hiding out in an abandoned warehouse staking out the Joker. I had time to kill so I used my VPN to throw on a couple episodes of HBO’s Euphoria to pass the time.” – Robin
- Nest Smart Thermostat: Wayne Manor gets drafty. It’s an older home, it’s expected. However, you can control the temperature in the mansion via the Nest Smart Thermostat. This smart device allows you to not only save money on your heating and cooling bills (millionaires can be thrifty too!), but you can regulate temperatures from your batphone. Plus, saving money on energy falls in line with the green initiatives of Wayne Enterprises. Moreover, drafty homes may lead to sore joints and muscle aches which can hinder your ability to capture Poison Ivy.
“Once I broke into Wayne Manor and I found the temperature very delightful, considering it’s such a big place. Both of my faces were perfectly comfortable, even after I was caught by the butler. Did you know that guy is a trained assassin? I did not.” – Two-Face
- NordicTrack Rower: Row, row, row your way into great shape. This rowing machine has a touchscreen and you can add up to five users (in case Batgirl wants to use it). Choose from immersive classes single to sessions to keep your body healthy, toned, and ready to tangle with the worst villains in Gotham.
“I use the Aviron rowing machine at Arkham during my exercise time. It helps me stay in shape so when I get out of here, I can be with my Puddin’ again!” – Harley Quinn
- WELT Smart Belt: Upgrade your traditional utility belt with something smarter. The WELT smart belt works with Android and iOS to track not only your waistline but your every movement since you’re always on the go. This belt uses Bluetooth sensors to relay your activities to your phone helping you stay on track.
“I was born into darkness but I value my health. This belt helped me manage my movements and it matches my mask which is a bonus.” – Bane
- Eye Massager: Unfortunately, superheroes aren’t immune to undereye bags. Get a good night’s sleep – even if you’re hanging upside down – with a heated eye massager from Rephno. This device has warming sensors that gently heat up while giving your eyes some much-needed relief. After wearing the batsuit and matching batmask for hours at a time, your eyes will thank you for the reprieve.
“My eyes were weary from taking photos and editing them in my dimly-lit cubicle at the Gotham Gazette. I’ve been using the eye massager nightly and wake up with refreshed peepers.” Vicki Vale
When Ra’s al Ghul is trying to end the world, or Mr. Freeze is staging a robbery at Gotham National Bank, these real-life Batman gadgets can get you through it. And for those rare moments when you have some downtime because the Justice League weekly Zoom meeting has been canceled, use your VPN to stream The Batman (2022) and see which new Batman gadgets are on the market.
