Joby Gorillapod - SLR

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: Joby

September 25, 2007
This is the Gorillapod for a compact camera.
Although most compact cameras have a tripod socket this is invariably at one end of the body and they feel unstable with some of the small tripods sold for use with a compact camera. This isn't a problem for the Gorillapod as you can bend the legs to make the camera nice and stable. The Gorillapod is more than an ordinary tripod though, I've wrapped it around the banisters in a restaurant to take a group photo and wrapped it around a fence post for outdoor shots. Handy for night shots too where the longer exposure time means jitter is a problem.
You do need a coin to screw the removable adapter plate to the camera and you need to know how to switch the self-timer on. It's small and light, ... Read More:

BT Digital Baby Monitor 100

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: BT

October 31, 2007
We bought this baby monitor after being guided by the other reviews on Amazon. I'm pleased to report that we've been equally impressed!

I won't go into tons of detail - other than to say it does everything that you would need for a newborn, plus more. Don't worry about the more expensive 150 model - the extra gadgets are overkill. The 100 does everything you need, plus a few extra bits that you might never use (the tunes it plays are a nice touch - but never used in our house).

And, we live right under the Heathrow flight path and never had a single bit of interference!

Spend your money with confidence.

Tacima CS929 6 Way Mains Conditioner and Radio Frequency Interference Filter

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: Tacima


If you have got a real hifi (not from currys or a fridge seller)this filter makes such a difference in the quality of sound. tighter bass more defined treble and a purer mid range. you get as much difference in the sound like when you change interconnects or speaker cables. but if you have a stack system it wont make to much difference as you need the quality there to start with. Its cheaper on amazon than ebay so buy itTACIMA MAINS CONDITIONER 6 WAY WITH RF FILTER

James Martin by Wahl Coffee Grinder ZX595

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: Wahl UK LTD


Knowing James Martins love of machines(cars)I imagined he would not put his name to anything mechanical if he was not happy with it and so it seems tbe with this little beauty. I have used this grinder for about six months now and have no complaints. Design and build are great and is simple to use,you just keep your finger on the button if you want a stronger brew. Recommended. Standard delivery from amazon took just two days.

Powermonkey Explorer - Emergency Charger For All Your Needs!

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: Power Traveller


The Powermonkey has a 1W solar panel and a 2200mAh battery which is slightly better specced than the Solio which has a 0.85W panel, and a 1800maH battery (the Freeloader has a 0.65W panel and a 1000mAH battery but is so unreliable as to be useless). The Powermonkey works as specified and will provide charge to most mobiles, pdas and portable media devices that take between a 4.5 - 5.5V charge (the charging voltage of your device should be listed on its AC adapter). For it to work properly it needs to be placed outside at a 30 degree angle facing south and in an unshaded spot- if you don't have a secure garden or you are on the move this could obviously be problematic. If you are really going somewhere where you will have no access to power for an extended ... Read More:

Philips HQ170 - Coolskin Moisturising lotion cartridges (pack of 5)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: Philips


If you own a Philishave Coolskin shaver, you are sooner or later going to need refills of the lotion cartridges. These come in a standard pack of five and at this price are very good value.

I find that typically one cartridge lasts a good few weeks if you shave every day, and you get a new cartridge head with every pack, so not much clogging up in the shaver either.

The Coolskin is a great shaver, and to get the most out of it make sure you keep stocked up on these as they really help the skin whilst making shaving a smoother, more comfortable experience.

Qwik Tune QTP1 guitar tuner & chord finder

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Toy Types
from: Qwik Tune


I've just received this guitar tuner and for £12.50 (including postage and packaging) this is brilliant! It's simple to use and you have 250 chords that is searchable with this tuner as well.

The only disadvantage of the chord finder is you have to go through the whole chords before you find the one you want. But this doesn't bother me because I can use the Internet to find chords.

I would definitely recommend this guitar tuner if you're tight on budget.

Aurora Colour Changing Clock

The alarm is far too quiet - think old Casio watch 'beep beep' sound and level. All well and good having lights, but needs to cover the basics!

I really liked these earphones. They've lasted me 6 months and I use them every day. The left earphone stopped working in the end but I am going to buy another pair because they're really comfortable and the sound is great.
