The news that a battery factory may be built in Coventry got me thinking.
The use of batteries to power many things in our life is increasing rapidly.
In the 50/60s I can only remember having a torch or a transistor radio that were battery powered.
I have listed the items that I have today that are wholly battery powered.
When can you remember their first use of batteries?
My list is: Car (Nissan Leaf), watch, clock, floor cleaner, vacuum, window cleaner, hearing aids, guitar amp, umpteen remote controls, air fresheners, Christmas decorations, garden sprinkler system, car locking fob.
I am sure there will be more.
