I've often thought about how we could benefit from international trading on a friendly bases, did you know that because our incandesent lamps are 240v rated ,they would last donkeys years longer over there as your on 110v, i saw a docco on it but cant remember the exact amount of years, but it was a rediculous number.

I'm not surprised mate. Your cars get far better gas mileage too. When I was there in 2002 I could not believe how far we went on a tank of gas. Almost blew up my hair dryer too. The *darn thing said it was rated be used on 240 but they lied. I traveled around England and Wales more often with a hair Don't instead of a hair Do. :shock: I figured since no one would see me again it was all good. :lol:

You can get the cards here for cheap, but most people don't have the tool to open their watch, or know what type of battery they need. Usually one battery will last 5-7 years, so most think the $10 is justified...
