Top 5 Gadget Sparklers for Bonfire Night
Remember, remember the 5th of the November – that's how the saying goes. Now Guy Fawkes, there was a man who knew a thing or too about making a statement. If only he'd have done it with his gadgets though and shown off his status with some bling, rather than trying to blow up the Houses of Parliament.
So, as it's Firework Night today, what better way to mark it than with five top sparklers from the techno-world. Unfortunately, not all of them can be waved around in the air and they don't make pretty colours in the smoke, but with gold and crystals on them, each one definitely costs more than a penny for the guy…

Sennheiser CX 300 2.5mm quality earphones designed for music phones
Sennheiser has created a music phone friendly version of its CX 300 earphones. Claiming to be the first quality in-ear headphones to be made available with a 2.5mm headphone jack, they boast improved sound quality for music phones.
The CX 300s feature an advanced, miniaturised driver, designed to give smooth, acoustically correct in-ear operation, with an extended response of 18Hz-21kHz.
They come with three different sizes of ear adapters for a perfect fit, which also means that sound leakage is minimised, thus reducing annoyance to other people. They feature powerful, bass-driven stereo sound, and an asymmetrical cable for optimum wearing comfort.
If you want pink, though, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
Available now, priced £39.99.
