Batteries are always in great demand here - I sometimes think we could forget the Euro vs Sterling debate and just adopt batteries as a form of currency as the deals which go down when power runs low is worthy of a city trader.
I tried issuing them all with individual packs of rechargeable batteries and bought couple of chargers but I swear we must have a monster in the wardrobe which eats these.
I tried buying cheap packs from those stores which charge around £1 for everything. They are OK but don't last long especially when overworked in power-draining items like games console controllers. Sometimes you have to admit you get what you pay for - and good quality batteries generally are worth spending extra on for top performance.
I always buy in a couple of packets of batteries ready for Christmas to include in any presents I give which need them and buy a few extra for any gadgets or toys which we receive. There's nothing worse that a Christmas present you can't play with until the shops selling batteries re-open!
I love that Duracell have just released special limited edition packs of their long lasting batteries featuring characters from Star Wars to celebrate the release of the new movie.
There is a whole series of limited edition battery packs featuring characters from Star Wars: The Force Awakens, including the newest member of the dark side Kylo Ren and new droid BB-8, as well as some beloved favourites including Stormtroopers, Chewbacca, C-3PO and R2-D2.
I bet fans would be extra-pleased to receive a pack of these in their stocking to power up their Star Wars themed gifts. Apparently the Duracell battery is the official battery for the newly issued Hasbro light sabre promising to help you fight the dark side for up to 15 times longer!
