Free: Vintage ipad for tinkering. (Fareham PO15) According to the serial number, this ipad dates from 2010. There is no charger, and I don't know if it works. Maybe someone can enjoy getting it going or taking it apart.

Free: Collectable etched glass soda syphon (Fareham PO15) Gifted Glass soda syphon with the name "Southern Table Water Co" etched on it. It's more of interest as a decorative item for your bar than for serious use. It's not the sort that takes your own CO2 bulbs. In its day it would have been refilled and charged by the company.

Free: Ring car starter. Needs attention. (Fareham PO15) Gifted Ring Car Starter, emergency battery charger. Please read the following description as it is not usable in its present state. This device contains a 12V battery. If your car battery goes flat, you can then recharge it from this one. That's the theory, but it does require you to keep the charger charged, otherwise it won't be any use when needed. This one has probably never been used and is now completely run down. Whether it can be revived I don't know, but it might give a bit of fun to someone who likes tinkering.
