Forty years after the release of the groundbreaking and shelf-clearing Super Soaker, engineer Lonnie Johnson talks about pushing the boundaries The post Watch: Super Soaker inventor Lonnie Johnson ...
Shortly after making the deal for the Super Soaker with the Larami Corporation, Larami became a subsidiary of Hasbro Inc. in February 1995. [18] Johnson tweaked the design of the water gun, replacing the water in the Super Soaker with a toy Nerf projectile, which became the N-Strike Nerf product line. [19]
Larami toys were produced based on several movies, television shows, etc. [3] By the 1980s, Larami Corp. had a growing water gun product line. [2] It was Larami Corp. that eventually marketed and sold the Power Drencher, rebranded as the Super Soaker in 1991 [2] which was based on the pressurized water-air reservoir invented and developed by the former Jet Propulsion Engineer Dr. Lonnie ...
Super Soaker is an American brand of recreational water gun that uses manually-pressurized air to shoot water with greater power, range, and accuracy than conventional squirt pistols. The Super Soaker was invented in 1989 by engineer Lonnie Johnson. The prototype combined PVC pipe, acrylic glass, and an empty plastic soda bottle. [1]
A bread making machine or breadmaker or Bread Maker is a home appliance for baking bread. It consists of a bread pan (or "tin"), at the bottom of which are one or more built-in paddles, mounted in the center of a small special-purpose oven. The machine is usually controlled by a built-in computer using settings input via a control panel.

Johnson is the only one cited in the Super Soaker's invention, yet the patent is held by both he and fellow inventor Bruce D'Andrade. It was D'Andrade who tooled the entire mechanism for the Super Soaker and was commissioned alongside Johnson, yet Johnson takes all of the credit in this article and many outside (much more biased) articles.
The sponge and dough method is a two-step bread making process: in the first step a sponge is made and allowed to ferment for a period of time, and in the second step the sponge is added to the final dough's ingredients, [1] creating the total formula. [2] In this usage, synonyms for sponge are yeast starter or yeast pre-ferment.
