Tesco plug in recharger for aa & aaa batteries with 2 aa and 2 aaa batteries is around 3.43. don't know the exact price. cant find my receipt

Found a couple of these but somewhat disappointed. First tried charging the four batteries that came with it and it was going very slowly so then just put in the two AAA batteries. Even after leaving them in the charger for most of the day, the batteries were not fully charged - they are about 75% charged according to my battery tester. The manufacture date on the batteries is September 2011. Anyone know the shelf life on rechargeable batteries? It's been a while since I've used rechargeable batteries, maybe they do take a long time to charge the first time?

Also for anyone buying the Rolson torches, check the batteries. I found three of the Rolson torches today - two were fine but the batteries had corroded inside the third one.

Grabbed one of those torches in Douglas today.
There were a few but only some were scanning cheaply, ones with the barcode tagged to them, not stuck on.

I got one and it seems to work well, although I didn't try the batteries that came with it.
You can't charge AA and AAA together, when charging 2 put them either on the left side or right, i.e. not the two middle slots(although I don't think it will work at all with them there)

daytob · 28-08-2014 12:27pm

Yeah, first time I plugged it in to charge, I had the batteries the way they were packed with the two AAA on the outside and the two AA in the middle. That wasn't working well, so then just put two paired AAAs on their own. Will try to see if I can get the charging to complete now.

Clearwater has been picked clean, some crazy person had tried 20 different headphones at the price checker, I got a pair of Panasonic RP-HXD3W for €16.49, not a great sound but they'll do for now.

If they're anything like the cat treats they had reduced awhile ago your dog won't thank you. I bought loads thinking they were great value and when I gave them to my cat she was like wtf are these, wouldn't touch them

mel.b · 29-08-2014 8:06pm

No, these are good ones, 70% actual meat. I buy them occasionally and my dog loves them.

Philips wireless Bluetooth marked 61 scanning at 40 something

A few radio alarm clocks and some Bluetooth speakers reduced too.

Edit : apple iPad Dock - marked 29.99 scanning at 8 something

(All prices approximate)

After reading this thread over at HUKD I decided to have a look at my local Tesco and got lucky with the last/only one.
It's even cheaper over here than the £11 from the original thread

Found one today, it was 1.43 for me. For those looking for these, it's just the silvery grey ones tagged with the card label/barcode that are clearanced. There are almost identical ones with barcode on a sticky label on side of torch which scan at full price.

Another find today - Lowepro Compact Camera Case (style Vail 10) in red. Nice for anyone looking for a case for a digicam. These have been 1.87 for a long time, now scanning at 93c. They were hanging on the same rack as mobile phone cases.
