These life meter pins will be adored by any couple who enjoys video games like Zelda or are just plain nerdy. The pins have six hearts side by side within a long rectangular panel. Like lives gained and lost in a video game, each heart represents life and, in this case, associated love.
With built-in sensors, the life meter pins communicate with each other and when they are close in proximity, all six hearts light up showing you are near your significant other and that love is in the air. The pins are rechargeable and will run for 3 1/2 hours on full -- meaning if you want them to last longer, you have to stay away from your sweetheart all day.
