    Heat yourself not the house – heated vests

    Our dual fuel energy bill is eye-wateringly high so we don’t have our heating on as much as last year. Instead we use things like mini oil heaters and blankets……but one thing I discovered and really like is a heated vest, which keeps your core warm and runs off a portable phone charger.

    Heated vests offer something that layers of ordinary clothing can’t offer. They keep your body toasty, so you can stay focused, which is crucial when trying to live in a cold house.

    They are simple to use. Once you receive your heated vest, you need to check the battery. In some cases, your battery will come partially charged, but you’d want to bring it to a full charge before putting your vest on.

    Wear your heated vest like you’d wear a regular …

    Broadband providers lifting data limits during Covid-19 lockdown

    Broadband providers are to relax prices and lift data caps to keep the nation online during the coronavirus pandemic.

    All data allowance caps on current fixed broadband services will be removed in a deal struck by the government and telecommunications providers and this will help vulnerable people stay connected.

    Companies such as BT/EE, Openreach, Virgin Media, Sky, TalkTalk, O2, Vodafone, Three, Hyperoptic, Gigaclear, and KCOM have pledged that anyone who is struggling to pay their bill due to the pandemic will be treated fairly and appropriately supported.

    The firms have also agreed to offer generous new mobile and landline packages to ensure people are connected and the most vulnerable continue to be supported. These could put users in line for packages featuring data boosts at low prices and free calls from their landline or mobile.…

    Gorgeous VQ Retro Mk II Dab radio – now £89.99 at Sainsbury’s stores

    Wow, this VQ Retro Mk II radio is just gorgeous, a great gift idea or just a beautiful piece of tech that will look stunning in your home.

    Currently the radio and rechargeable battery pack are a steal at £89.99 at Sainsbury’s stores – this bundle is usually a minimum of £120 so a decent saving, the battery pack which makes it portable alone being around £20 – £30. Check out PriceSpy to confirm.

    The radio is huge and the guys at VQ were kind enough to send me one to review – dimensions are 30 x 11.5 x 20.5 cm, so – so I just used it as plugged in rather than using it as a portable radio.

    As well as being a DAB radio, it’s a handy and stylish docking station with …
