DipClip
In-Car Sauce Holder recently rebranded as Saucemoto
“How to Practice Safe Sauce” is the title of a promotional video for DipClip, a no-tech device designed to make driving safer and more convenient for the many people who eat in their cars. The clip, which attaches to any vent in your car, holds sauces and keeps the condiment container off your lap or other places where it’s prone to spilling.
The clip holds almost all sauces from all major food chains. It comes with a Ramekin tub that fits the clip and has a 1.3 fluid oz. capacity (about five ketchup packets). The universal mount rotates and locks into 16 positions at different vent angles.
DipClip, which almost quintupled its $10,000 Kickstarter goal, will retail for an estimated $15 with a shipping timetable of March for crowdfunding backers.
