YOU’RE DOING IT WRONG!!

500,000 or, if you used the tool daily for 75 years, 18 charges per day. In the USA it was sold under the Coleman brand.

I have a very handy cordless electric screwdriver, it operates at 5.4 v DC and can usually manage about 50-75 light-duty screws before needing a top-up. Doesn't sound much, but this thing has no batteries, instead it has a capacitor that takes only 90 seconds to fully charge from a completely dead state. It also had quite high torque for its driving duties. Here's. 2008 review of the thing: http://www.onlinetoolreviews.com/reviews/gmcfastcellscrewdrivers.htm, mine being the higher-capacity straight barrel design.

Blood test results all OK. Cholesterol is low, blood sugar a tad high but no higher than at an other time. Uric acid now being regulated, iron levels being monitored. No major areas of concern.

Damned cat has just vomited up right beside the front door. Fortunately the wet & dry vacuum cleaner was able to collect it all.

Brown bears, wolves and lynx numbers rising in Europe.

Cooked up something different for tomorrow's lunch. Arborio rice risotto with a stock of mild yellow curry paste, water, cooking cream & coconut essence. Thickened at the end with slivers of Irish cheddar cheese. Initial sample was rather delish.
