    Rechargeable Hand Warmer

    A very seasonal, brief, and I'll admit largely uninformative review of a rechargeable hand warmer. There are a couple of reasons why I put this video together. a) To show that I'm still around & b) To inform people that such a product category actually exists. It is very unlikely anyone would go searching for a rechargeable hand warmer without knowing that you could actually buy one. 

    This is the first video I've done where I've overdubbed the narration with my new Samson Go Mic and I think it sounds fine. The Go Mic is the cheapest Condenser USB microphone I could find.

    I needed a separate mic as my Macbook's inbuilt one kept picking up the sound of the fan (jet engine?) going into overdrive whenever I played back an HD video clip for overdubbing. I kept having to stop whilst it cooled down. The last time I made a video I had to sit the Macbook on a bed of ice packs from the freezer and after that I decided that enough was enough. I think I made the right decision.

    For those who are interested in Car Cameras - I've just had a delivery from HK today of a new HD, Motion Activated car camera. I'll be testing this one out over the Christmas break and will endeavour to get the full in-depth review out before New Year.

    Anyway..... hand warmer video 'review' below.

    Just a quick note to thank you for your great reviews. The videos are very well presented, very detailed and straight to the point. I know from experience these take a lot of time and effort to produce. Congratulations and keep up the good work! :)

    Thanks Jose. You are right about these taking a lot of time. My latest probably took me 10 hours spread over 4 days.
