Is your partner a geek? My husband most definitely falls into this category and I really struggle to buy him gifts for Valentine’s Day. He’s often the first to say ‘don’t worry about buying me a present’ when the most romantic day of the year comes around, but I like giving gifts and I think it’s sad to miss the opportunity to spoil someone you love.

I’m not saying that buying gifts for geeks is easy, because actually, it can be really hard, but I’m determined to find my husband the perfect present this year. In the past I have researched potentially nerdy things such as buy sim racing cockpit and the newest games for Xbox, however, after many years I am running out of ideas. Seeing as I’ve been hard at work finding the perfect Valentine’s Day gift, I thought I would share all my ideas in this handy gift guide just in case you were having the same issues as me. I’m confident you will find the perfect present right here for the one you love that says, ‘I know your a geek, but I totally get you!’

TrackR Pixel

I probably hear my husband say ‘where’s my … keys/phone/wallet/bag?’ at least once a day. I have no idea how someone can manage to lose things quite so easily. The TrackR Pixel is the perfect geek gadget for him and it will help him find whatever he has lost either at home or when we are travelling.

It’s the perfect little present to pop inside a Valentine’s Day card and you could even play a little hunt the present if you wish!

Headphones are a really important accessory for my husband and I’m guessing your loved one will appreciate these Hesh 3 Wireless Bluetooth Headphones too.

The pod is worn during the game and updates an app on your phone with your stats, like running speed and distance.

  1. Yep my hubby is definitely a geek!
    He’d love the FIXR Multi Tool, Star Wars Bluetooth Stormtrooper Speaker & the wireless bluetooth headphones.
    We haven’t given gifts at Valentines for a long time however I may well treat him to the FIXR Multi Tool this year as it does sound very useful!

  2. Wow you have a great list of goodies there. The storm trooper speaker looks great I’v not seen those before. Perfect timing as I know the perfect person to give some too and his birthday is in Feb.

  3. I love finding quirky gift ideas, things I would never have thought of myself. This is one of those lists, with some fabulous ideas. Although I think the Formula 1 car experience is something I shall have to hint at my husband to get me.

  4. These are great gift ideas. I’m a Star Wars / Superhero geek at heart so the bluetooth speaker and logo light would be perfect for me. I really love the socks though so I’m off to enter your giveaway now.
