Advantages: A relatively cheap spare sensor bar. Good for a second TV or a quick replacement. Disadvantages: The cable is still flimsy. Other sensor bars are even cheaper.
The Wii might have been the best thing to happen to console gaming since, well, at least the Xbox 360, but the need to install the sensor bar rather ties you to a particular television.
It works via two infra-red LEDs which send out signals that are picked up by the Wii-mote which calculates its position via triangulation; accelerometers in the Wii-mote allow it to recalculate its position when out of sight. Since all the complicated electronics are in the Wii-mote and the console, the sensor bar is a relatively simple bit of kit; it is, however, crucial to the operation of the console as a whole. Wii-motes will just about work without it for a while, but will regularly cut-out and drift off-target.
If you're the sort of person with multiple TVs in the household and want to move your Wii around you've got to remove and re ...
Advantages: Provides lots more information than regular weighing scales Disadvantages: Have to weigh yourself after similar levels of activity or readings can be distorted
Let's face it, stepping on the scales isn't much fun. They don't tell you a whole lot, but that number on the scales can make or break your mood for the day. Well, that's how it works for me.
If they tell me I weigh more than they should, I protest it's down to water retention, or maybe I've developed more muscles. It's all down to guesswork. What I really needed was more information on my body composition. I wanted all the nitty gritty details that were contributing to my ever changing weight dilemmas.
After reading an advert for body fat monitors one day, I decided that this was the sort of information I was after. So, after undertaking a bit of research, I bought the Tanita BC-532. Tanita is a well known brand name for weighing scales, plus the price wasn't too horrendous at around £70 at Argos. However, Argos don't appear to be ...
Advantages: Great shave, pretty good for D-Fining Disadvantages: replacements are expensive
As you will have guessed from my photo I'm not exactly in the habit of using a razor. I do though need occasionally have a tiding up job on the old ragged face. Electric razors have tendency to catch on the portion of the beard I intend to leave attached , and this can often be a bit painful.
So the obvious choice is a wet shave. I have through the years tried many of these including the old fashioned screw together things which contain an actual razor blade. Very dodgy things those, they can decapitate you in an instant.
The cheapo ones you buy in multi-packs do not appear to be quite as sharp as their dearer counterparts and rip your face to shreds.
So in 1990 when Gillette launched their Sensor range I decided to give them a go. I have since changed from the original Sensor to the Sensor II and that is the razor I have been ...
Alcohol Sensor (HC-207) It's easy to have one alcoholic drink too many, and over the long term this can lead to serious health problems. By breathing on the hi-tech semi conductor gas sensor in this clever and accurate* device, you can discover the level of alcohol in your blood in just 5 seconds. The LCD shows blood alcohol concentration in mg/100ml and measures from 0.1 to 1.0 mg/100ml. It is especially useful to learn how much alcohol is left in your system the morning after, or in the evening after a lunchtime drinking session. It is small enough to fit discretely into a pocket or purse (10cm long) and the batteries last up to 1 year if used once a day. *Background research has shown this product to be accurate. However, you should not use it to judge whether you are legally fit to drive a car, operate machinery, or conduct potentially dangerous activities. The only safe advice is - do not drink and drive!
