Micro USB Car Charger
There was a time when mobile phones were the size of bricks, you carried the battery pack in a shoulder bag and you had to charge them overnight – if you want to see one, you need to go to a museum. Thanks to the Micro USB Car Charger, you can drive over to see them and charge your iPod, iPhone or any other portable USB device as you go!
You will not find a more compact or portable car charger! In fact, you’ll hardly notice that it’s even there – until you need it, when you’ll be singing its praises while your favourite device is sucking the juice.
Not much bigger than the size of your thumb (depending on how big your thumb is of course), the Micro USB Car Charger’s sleek design will blend in with your car’s interior. And the cool blue LED ‘X’ lets you know that it’s got power.
You can use it for your iPod/iPhone (iPhone / iPod charging cable included), Blackberry and any other device that can charge via USB – in fact, there’s probably not one person you know (unless your grandad’s still got his brick phone) that couldn’t use the Micro USB Car Charger, which makes it a great gift for friends, workmates, family members, secret santas and of course, yourself! It’s the gift-that-fits-all!
Why get yourself tangled up with cords? Why lug around your 240V charger hoping you can find an outlet someone will let you use? The Micro USB Car Charger is the only charger you’ll ever need whilst on the move.

USB Cup Warmer
Posted by Daoco in Computers, Gadgets, Great Ideas on June 25, 2010
Burning the midnight oil cramming for an exam? So flat out at work that you barely have time to scratch yourself let alone go and make yourself a cuppa? Who doesn’t know the feeling?
…and the irritating thing is that just because you may get a chance to get away from your desk and make yourself a tea or coffee, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ll have time to drink it immediately!
So knowing that there’s nothing less appealing than a cuppa gone cold, the USB Cup Warmer is simply an indispensable gadget to anyone anchored to their desk.
Simply plug this decor-pleasing plate straight into your USB computer port, pop your cuppa on it and your coffee, tea, Milo or soup will be warm for hours!
Featuring a bright LED indicating that the warmer is plugged in, you can flick the unit on and off direct from the base plate which means you don’t even have to keep plugging it in when you want to use it. Better still, even if you currently use your USB port for another device such as our USB Massage Ball, you can simply connect it to the built-in USB port on the side of the cup warmer itself.
Convenient, ingenious and so simple to use – you’ll never waste another cuppa again!

Battery Direct for Laptops, Camcords and Digital Cameras
How can I maximize the performance of my laptop battery?
There are several steps you can take to help you get maximum performance from your laptop battery:
Prevent the Memory Effect – Keep the laptop battery healthy by fully charging and then fully discharging it at least once every two to three weeks. Exceptions to the rule are Li-Ion batteries which do not suffer from the memory effect.
Keep the laptop Batteries Clean – It’s a good idea to clean dirty battery contacts with a cotton swab and alcohol. This helps maintain a good connection between the battery and the portable device.
Exercise the Battery – Do not leave the battery dormant for long periods of time. We recommend using the battery at least once every two to three weeks. If a laptop battery has not been used for a long period of time, perform the new battery break in procedure described above.
