Aermate Wine and Spirits Aerator

What’s to love: Instead of waiting for wine to breathe, quickly aerate it with this device.

What does it do: Basically, the tool is a silicone bulb on one end of a stainless-steel tube with a tip at the other that produces micro bubbles. The tinier bubbles provide more surface area when oxygenating a drink. The

Aerator reaches to the bottom of most wine

bottles, but can also be used in glasses and with other beverages. The Aermate Wine Aerator sells for $39.95.

Energizer Ultimate Lithium Batteries What’s to love: Longer lasting batteries. What does it do: These batteries comein AA and AAA and are

made specifically for use in devices that create a high drain on ordinary batteries such as cameras, external flashes and two-way radios. According to a news release from the company, the new batteries last nine times longer than their Energizer Max batteries. They are also 33 percent lighter than other alkaline batteries

and have a 20 year storage life. A four pack sells for $9.99.
