Best electronic gadget, must be my ipad. Open it up, check emails within seconds.
Best DIY gadget, my multi tool saw. The blade is about 50 mm long, and 30 mm wide, the blade vibrates at variable speed, ideal for cutting recesses for hinges, as you can cut from any direction. rebating to fit locks, cutting plastic drain pipes, better than a jig saw in confined spaces. Down side, blades are expensive, and soon blunt and not many available that will cut steel. Best car gadget, must be my garmin Sat Nav. Best boat gadget, must be my fish finder, used as a depth indicator. Best home gadget, the portable Air Con unit in our bedroom, used first time last night for nearly a year. Best outdoor gadget, my Karcher power washer, with underbody lance, keeps the underside of the Mav clean, and washing the salt off, but also great for unblocking drains, provided that you don't switch it on BEFORE you submerse the head, talk about get your own back... My definition of best gadget would be... if it broke I would get a replacement straight away. ( Or try to fix it first). Oh... best kitchen gadget... My wife. Irreplaceable. Only joking... ( true though in our household ). I bet I open my self up for a few comments on this one... best regards, Rustic

best electronic gadget I've brought must be my 22amp Lithium Battery for my hunting lamp, it lasts 3or4 nights lamping and saves lugging around a motoer bike battery witch is what I used before, I used to get paranoid that the acid was leaking out the battery and dripping down my back cus I had it in a rucksack, used to do my head in! so I decided to upgrade best thing ive brought I think
