Day 448, Battery chart two, read the bottom line


Teeny weenie batteries for a thing that spins round a lot.  Not to power the spinning but to count the spin.

No this is not some LHC experiment from CERN*.  The size of the power units required ought to be a give away to that.

The batteries are for a Powerball, a device which supposedly helps in strengthening wrists and grip.

I'm not overly convinced that the device does what it says, the medical evidence is thin on the ground.

I certainly couldn't find anything other than hearsay or anecdotal evidence, no actual scientific data.

It's a coincidence that the batteries are sitting on a set of charts of warm up exercises for guitar - the Powerball is cited by some as helping strengthen hands for guitar playing.

The only reason I took a picture of them was to see what type the batteries were.

To paraphrase Peter Cook - The writing is too small for the human eye, which is what I am equipped with.

And it is possible to increase the size of the image just by using human fingers, which I am also equipped with, oh and a smart phone of course.

There may be exercises to reverse hardening of the lens in the eye, although I expect they would have difficulty holding the weights.





* Spin, let me Google that for you.
