When the lights go out from a thunderstorm or your boyfriend blows a fuse trying to repair something, the first thing you reach for is generally a torch. Hopefully, it’s bright enough to help your way out of the dark and if it isn’t and the batteries are flat, it should be at least hevy enough to throw at the person who caused the mess.
But how has the technology changed over the years?
On this show, we’ll look at regular old torches, LED’s, and really big torches as well as how they’re now being used in replace of personal self-defense items like Pepper Spray to help people like you and me.
We’ve also got a bunch of news including Microsoft ordered to stop selling Word, details on the new Sony PS3 & PSP, how everyone can be a DJ, Samsung’s new phones, how ViewSonic are entering the 3D space, and a whole heap more!
