Last night my keyboard went down while I was typing in a fairly important bit of work. The mouse was still working, so I changed the batteries on the keyboard. Still no luck, tried several more times re-setting the reciver and so on. Closed down for the night as it was getting on and I was tired. This morning I delved below my desk and checked all the connections, still no joy. Before putting every thing back in place and calling the LCS I decided to try the batteries again but this time instead of useing the cheap Maplin one's that were on offer. I used two Energizer's, which I had bought in bulk for the camera(s) and GPS. Low and Behold every thing worked perfect. Lesson learnt again dont buy cheap batteries for important kit. Yes I will use the cheap Maplins up (probably give them to the daughter the next time she comes cadging) but I will certainly not be buying any more.
