Cordless Panasonic Phones

Friday, October 9th, 2009

Panasonic are a brand that have always produced very good products and the Panasonic cordless phones are no exception. One thing Panasonic is not very good at though is giving them a decent name. For example the Panasonic KX-TG6421ES cordless phone or the Panasonic KX-TG6481ET are just two of these terrible attempts.

Once however you get past the numbers and letters Panasonic phones that are cordless are very good. The range starts itself with two similar models with one having an answering machine and the other not. Panasonic call these the KX-TG6411ET Panasonic Cordless Phone and the KX-TG6421ES Panasonic Cordless Phone with Answering Machine

Next in the range is an extremely robust handset and hard wearing cordless phone in the Panasonic range. Normal handsets are not weak but this particular cordless phone is extra tough. In fact it has been given an IP54 IP rating this particular cordless Panasonic phone is so tough. This phone is named the Panasonic Cordless Phone KX-TG6481ET

Next in the Panasonic cordless range is a corded and cordless telephone that is very unique. The extra handset will walk around working as a slave to the main corded phone plugged into the telephone line. With the corded on the desk it means the cordless could be in another room. This phone is the Panasonic Cordless Phone KX-TG6461ET

Finally the top of the range model in the Panasonic range has a colour screen as well as an answering machine. Also this particular model has other features such as an extra large phone book. Panasonic call this model the anasonic KX-TG8421EB

Just to make things more complicated all of the above models come in multi packs that also have different product names. However simply look at which Panasonic cordless phone you want first and then work out how many phones you want after.

Dealing with indoor allergies

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Allergies can be debilitating even for people with mild symptoms.  The typical runny nose, sneezing and watery eyes make it difficult to concentrate on even the simplest tasks.  Unlike hay fever sufferers, those with indoor allergies tend to suffer all year round without respite.

By far the most common cause of indoor allergies is house dust mite droppings as dust mites are found in every home in the UK.  Modern centrally heated houses make the perfect breading ground for them.  They thrive in a warm and humid location so beds provide an ideal environment and even a food source in the form of dead skin cells, although they can also live in carpets, soft furnishings and even furry toys.  Asthmatics can be particularly susceptible to indoor allergies bought about by house dust mites and the allergy symptoms can even bring about asthma attacks.

The best way to reduce the impact of the dust mite is to control their numbers as far as is possible.

  • Barrier covers – Use specially design barrier covers on the non-washable bedding, e.g. pillows and mattress.  The covers need to enclose the item entirely to be effective.
  • Wash bedding on high heat – Wash all bedclothes at a temperature of at least 60 degrees centigrade.  This is sufficient to kill the dust mites; lower temperatures will only provide temporary relief by removing the dust mite droppings but leaving the mites alive.
  • Use a HEPA vacuum – Use a high filtration vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter such as the Dyson DC25.  The HEPA filter ensures that the majority of the allergens stay in the filter and are not atomised back into the air.  Regularly vacuum all household upholstery, ideally several times a week.
  • Damp wipe surfaces – Rather than using a duster to dust and polish surfaces, use a damp cloth, this will trap the allergens rather than making them airborne where they are more likely to cause symptoms.
  • Use a dehumidifier – The house dust mites like a humid environment so use a dehumidifier to keep the house in the range 30-50% humidity.
