PowerEx Imedion rechargeable batteries

 Rechargeable batteries are a wonderful invention but they have two flaws that can render them stillborn for ‘professional’ use. If you buy them new they need charging. Secondly they gradually lose their charge. How many times have you tried to use your torch or camera to find the rechargeables flat? And then after seeking out some rechargeables you discover that you have to charge them up before use. It’s enough to make you return to the distinctly environmentally-unfriendly single use ones.

Powerex seems to have solved the problem by producing AA rechargeables that come ready charged. It’s a simple idea that makes you wonder why no one has thought of doing it before. The Powerex Imedion batteries worked flawlessly out of the pack and powered an Eton E5 radio for over 20 hours. So far after pretty thorough testing the batteries seem to hold their charge too. There’s not much more you can say about a set of batteries, is there?

Sennheiser CX 400
 Apple’s various iPods are wolves in sheep’s clothing. They are capable of producing wonderful sound quality but end up sounding like a bee trapped in a jar because of the dreadful earphones they come bundled with.

If you’re a casual user who loves music and doesn’t want to be a mugger’s target then the Sennheiser CX400 is hard to beat. At around £40 they are dramatically better than Apple’s originals and won’t break the bank.

In short: A worthy upgrade for all iPods and iPhones.
