  • Intelligent circuit provides precise output voltage and resistor configuration specific to the Garmin Nuvi 360. This ensures battery is safely and efficiently charged without affecting battery longevity.
  • Charger provides a full 10W (2,000mAh) of available current in a small form factor a little over 1 inch long. Flexible, straight cable measure 50 inches in total length.
  • Built using high quality capacitors and circuit components to ensure that charging current does not interfere with FM radio transmissions. Rigorous Q&A process.
  • Power Sleep"" feature will cut power draw of charger by over 99% when not in use. Charger will draw less than 0.1W of power when in ""ready state"" (e.g. not connected to the Garmin Nuvi 360).

although the cord powers up the garmin nuvi just fine the insertion point to the nuvi looks like an adapter that is straight out. when you plug into this and then put the nuvi on the dashboard the weight of the adapter pulling on it has bent the adapter almost 90 degrees. Would NOT buy this again. Would look for one that is bent 90 degrees at insertion already. This will probably break in a month or so. Certainly not the same one that came with the orginal product.

WirthCo 20039 Battery Doctor Sport Charger

WirthCo 20039 Battery Doctor Sport ChargerI have used the charger for a few years with no problems. I use it on my MC which I only ride once a month or so. It keeps the battery charged so it starts perfectly. Returned a B&D charged as it overcharged my Jeeps battery and ordered another Battery Doc charger. You get what you pay for.

Exactly what I expected; no more, no less. Keeps my motorcycle alive over the winter. That's what it's supposed to do.

I've owned three of these chargers. The first one became part of the deal when I sold a motorcycle, the second one became part of the deal when I sold a boat. I bought this one for my daughter's motorcycle when she moves out, it will go with her and I'll buy another one. They are excellent for keeping a vehicle battery charged and ready to go, especially if you are not using it every day. Simple to use and seem to last forever. Well worth the money!

Retractable Car Charger (CLA) for Pantech Laser

Retractable Car Charger for Pantech LaserAfter reading the reviews for this I wasn't expecting it to actually work but for the price I had to at least give it a shot. It's been 3 days now and it's still working. I use it everyday on my way to and from work! No issues so far....and I must admit...I love not having the long cord hanging and getting stepped on. I would order it again if it broke tomorrow!

I ordered this car charger in preparation for a week-long road trip; at under 5 dollars it seemed like a pretty good deal, especially considering the fact that my mobile carrier sells the exact same thing for over 30 dollars in their store. The charger arrived in time and I found the design to be very handy but it stopped working after only one use. I plugged it into my car's cigarette lighter, then plugged it into the phone and it initially charged just fine. Two hours later I stopped the car and unplugged the charger, then later that day I got back in the car and plugged the phone into the charger again but nothing happened; the phone didn't recognize it and the battery was not being charged at all. The red light on the charger was still on so I know it was connected properly but it no longer provided any power and I was stuck with a dead phone for much of the trip as a result. I guess you get what you pay for.

I purchased this in Jan 2011 to use in my car with my Pantech Laser and so far it has worked just fine. Being retractable, it takes up little space with no cables getting tangled up in the glove box, etc. The retractor works by pushing a button (which blends into the unit so well it's hard to notice) rather than by pulling on the cord and letting it spring back. Charges and retracts just like it's supposed to, so it's 5 stars from me.

Power Wheels battery charger, 6 volt, 4AH, for blue battery.

Power Wheels battery charger, 6 volt, 4AH, for blue battery.We visited my parents last Christmas and they gave my little boy a Kawasaki Power Wheels Bike by them. I Charged the battery and when we returned home we lost the charger. The battery lasted a lot so I was looking for the charger and the Amazon description (color of the batteries and the Voltage) helped me a lot. The new charger arrived and it also has some recommendations so we the parents do not forget when charging the battery. The charger worked perfectly fine. I recommend this product and its seller.

The product arrived exactly as it was described. We charged the power wheels 4-wheeler overnight and it worked perfectly the next day.

F30 HD Dual Camera Lens Car Vehicle DVR Cam Dash Video Recorder 8 IR Lights SOS

F30 HD Dual Camera Lens Car Vehicle DVR Cam Dash Video Recorder 8 IR Lights SOS
  • Unique human voice in Chinese, Russian and English, and a numberof exclusive patents
  • SOSemergency button - press SOS button in case of emergency, themachine will automatically save 2 files of the emergency as non-deletablefiles.
  • 2.7"16:9 HD display, dual-lens can rotate by 180 °
  • Fastswitch to the night-shoot mode, the mode is very effective tosolve the overexposure problem, and thereby to see the licenseplate as clearly as possible.
  • Seamless video, up to 30 frames / s

After seeing all the Russian video footage of the meteor explosion of 2013. I decided I had to get one of these camera's. Who knows what interesting things you might capture on video. The product is almost what I expected … my only complaint would be the quality of the video is not quite as good as I would have hoped. It's 1280X480 and that's only if you just use one of the 2 camera's. If you use both at the same time then your down to 640X480. BTW it records what displayed on the LCD screen. Your choices are 1, 2, 1+2 or 2+1. In my case I'm doing 1+2 with one camera facing forward and one out the back windows. I'd like to catch the person behind me texting when they rear end me if that's possible. When going back and reviewing the footage you can make out the cars and their make and model but reading a license plate would be out of the question. Still over all I feel it's a decent product for the money. Keep in mind that you have to buy the Micro SD card separately and it needs to be a class 6 or better speed wise.

Good product but two camera's view it is hard to follow on playback. I prefer a single camera view. still a good product but not for me.

  • IC Chip recognizes full battery & automatically switches to saver mode
  • LED charging indicator
  • Fast charge for your GPS while on the road
  • Can be used with input voltages for car and truck
  • Made of high quality vinyl

I purchased this car charger for my Garmin nuvi 650. I am seeing a compatibility issue. During charging, sometimes the GPS goes into the PC connect mode (which uses the same port). This happens abruptly and I have had to disconnect the cable and restart the GPS. I wouldn't recommend buying this cable for a nuvi 650. Its probably worth to buy the regular power adapter (expensive compared to this) that comes with the nuvi.

Schumacher IPD-1800 Instant Power Jump-Starter with Docking Station

Schumacher IPD-1800 Instant Power Jump-Starter with Docking StationThe reasons that I bought this charger is because it has a docking stations which can be used to charge and store the unit when not in use. After the charging is completed, the docking station will enter a "floating charge" mode to prevent overcharging. Some other charger need to be monitored carefully since overcharging can damage the battery. With this unit, I can just leave it and forget it... Also, this unit is small enough that my wife can use it to jumpstart her minivan. Some other multifunction charger are so heavy, you'd have to be a weightlifter to carry the thing.

** UPDATE ** I originally wrote the glowing review below. This was a great product, while it lasted. Unfortunately, about 1 week after the 1-year warranty period ran out, the unit stopped accepting a charge. That is, I could not charge it either using the cradle or directly from the wall adapter. I called Schumacher and they could not offer me any help. A shame, but I can no longer recommend this device and I will be looking for a replacement.

UPDATE: I paid $88 for this when I purchased it in February, 2008. I see the price has increased, so I just wanted to note this difference so you take my comment about 'heck of a deal for the price' and 'comparison shopping' in the appropriate context. I am still very pleased with the unit but wanted to make clear that I am no longer completely certain that it's the best deal on the market. I have not recently done any comparison shopping to figure out if other units prices have changed.

Original review: Let me begin by saying that this is a sturdy, well-built piece of machinery. It also clearly can get the job done, period. My V6 Toyota Land Cruiser had a _completely_ flat battery, with a totally crudded-over positive terminal. I hooked this puppy up, and my engine ROARED back to life within 10 seconds of the connection being made. I haven't ever heard my engine start like that before, even when jumped from other jumper packs. Now, to comment on some other aspects of this equipment: It comes with a charging cradle, but you don't need to use it, because the AC adapter that plugs in to the cradle can also be plugged directly in to the jumper pack itself. So you can just stash the AC adapter in the car with the jumper pack, for mobile use. Also, this _can_ be used to power small appliances, but you'll need a cigarette-lighter adapter, because this doesn't have a regular outlet, only a cigarette-lighter outlet. Anyway, this is a heck of a deal for the price. I did a lot of comparison shopping to get the best value, and I'm very, very pleased.

I purchased this unit based on all the positive reviews, but unfortunately, I cannot say the same. I guess I must have received a defective unit. The main battery would not charge through the dock and the LED's on the dock were not in synch, as it showed full charge whether the main unit was attached or not, even before charging. The battery charged fine on its own and I concluded that either the dock itself or the battery contacts must be faulty. I could have done without the dock, but the idea of unprotected contacts being bare makes no sense. What made me decide to return it however was the unpleasant experience with Schumacher. After 3 days of calling, each time I was given the run around and they had no records of my issue (Like I was calling for the first time). Finally they decided I had to ship the entire unit (at my cost) so they can "test it". So much for customer service and warranty on a brand new unit out of the box. I decided to return it to Amazon and they paid for the return shipping. The 3 stars is a balance of 1-2 stars for the product, 0star for Schumacher, and 5+ stars for Amazon.

I use this as an alternate 12V power source to power a 12V

air compressor and it is a great product! It can power a

Spot Light(15 watts/12V) for 12 hours. So it doesn't have a problem at all when I blow up tires, floats etc.

I am very impressed with this product as far as it's dependability and ease of use. I had a problem with a battery drain on my vehicle in which the battery would be dead every morning when I would go to start it. I used this product every day for a few weeks to jump off the car until we could find the source of the drain. It worked flawlessly every time I needed it. I had always been scared to jump start a battery, but with this product, it is so easy I didn't have any worries. I could even throw it in the trunk and take it with me when I thought I might need it.

I have had it about 6 months now and I love it! The peace of mind is well worth it!

Uniden Public Safety Receiver (Home Patrol- 1)

Uniden Public Safety ReceiverThe Uniden Home Patrol-1 is an amazing piece of technology. A touch screen scanner that requires very little user input, and has the entire US frequency database in its memory. For the most part, the HP-1 make scanning as simple as can be. You hook up the scanner to your PC, and run the Uniden Sentinel Software. The software downloads the latest frequency database from RadioReference. You upload the the database to the scanner, and you're good to go. Just enter your Zip Code, City, or GPS coordinates, and the HP-1 will scan all the agencies in your area. You can even hook up an optional GPS unit to automatically follow your location. You set the range of the scanner from 0-30 miles to limit how far away the agencies are that the scanner will attempt to scan. You can also select the type of agencies you wish to listen to. I find the "location" setting to be hit or miss. It seems to think that towns that are 40 miles from me, are actually less than 1 mile from me. It also thinks agencies in my own town are more than 10 miles away. This is due to the database, not the scanner. The database has been getting updated on a daily basis, to get it more accurate and up to date. I find that setting up your own "Favorites Lists" works well in listening to what you want to.

As for the hardware itself, the HP-1 is a very solid performer. The receiver has great sensitivity and selectivity. I've listened to APCO-25 digital systems, EDACS, and Motorola analog trunking systems. All of them were configured correctly without any user input. Audio quality is good, but not great. It is about what I expected from a very small speaker. The small SMA duck antenna performs surprisingly well, especially on UHF. The touch screen is bright and easy to use. Battery life with the included 2300mAh batteries is good. I get over 8 hours on a single charge. The scanner is capable of replaying and recording transmissions. A very cool feature. The scanner also comes with a home charger/adapter, car charger/adapter, and home stand. The stand is a nice touch. The HomePatrol-1 is a nice addition to my collection of scanners. People that don't like to program their scanners, or would like to use it in different areas, will probably enjoy it also.

Update: A few months ago, Uniden introduced a new "Extreme Upgrade" firmware update for the Home Patrol-1. They are charging $100 for this upgrade, and it adds some new features to the scanner. So basically in order for you get all the features of the Home Patrol-1, you now have to spend $600, or you'll have a crippled $500 radio. In my opinion, this is a dangerous practice. Many in the Amatuer Radio Community are outraged about this, but everyone has to decide for themselves whether or not they have an issue with this. As a matter of principle, I will not be paying another $100 for a firmware upgrade, and I lowered my rating from 5 stars to 4 stars. I will also think twice about purchasing another Uniden radio since I'll never know whether or not Uniden will be charging for future upgrades.

Could I be dreaming? Is this really true for this price? All these features with a touch screen? Long and the short of it is this is an amazing breakthrough in digital scanners at this price point! I am a news videographer who has worked in many different markets for various stations and has had a number of different scanners through the years. The Home Patrol 1 beats many of them hands down from both a pro and amateur level. Yes the unit needs some work but I expected that as this is such a new product.

The Pros: Right out of the box you can set it up to work via zipcode, city, GPS(need the proper connection), or area (the HP1 automatically picks up what signals are in the area). These methods work extremely well right out of the box but do have some issues which I'll get to in the Cons section.

For this price it comes with everything, home AND car charger, preloaded frequencies, stand and software all in a touch screen package. Hands down this can't be beat.

The touch screen is brilliant and relatively easy to navigate. Set brightness, auto dim, contrast and power save to your liking and your off.

Having all the frequencies preloaded on a 2gig micro SD card is great also Plus the fact that Uniden updates the list on a regular basis which is taken care of just by plugging the unit into the computer and hitting update in the software.

Squelch, attenuation, range, inputting frequencies, favorites, gps connection and yes even recording are all here.

The In Between: My understanding is that Uniden knows about these problems and are working on fixing them.

While having the ability to set zipcode, range, area etc. is fantastic the unit gets a bit confused and leads to excessive work out of the box. I put my zipcode in and it loaded states that were over two hours away. Same thing with entering range, I set it for 15 miles and it loads frequencies from over forty miles away. So then you have to work on locking out channels left and right.

You can set up what you want to listen to such as fire, police, transportation, rail, etc. but the problem is even with certain departments chosen it will just load everything up. For example all I wanted was police, fire and ems yet it loaded up rail, airports and transportation anyway.

Again Uniden knows about these problems and is working on them.

The Bad or Nitpicky: Being able to save favorites in the unit is a good thing to have but to make an entire list is a giant time consuming pain and your much better off making a list in the software which leads me to the next problem. The software is easy to navigate but has little to no instruction on creating and saving your lists to the unit. I figured it out and once figured out it is a snap but a little instruction would go a long way. In fact entering and saving frequencies in the software is easier than entering them in the unit itself.

The touch screen is a giant step forward but needs some tweeks. I like seeing County, Department, Frequency etc. and be able to one touch lock but to skip a channel requires a three touch process on the tiny bar on the right which while driving can be a pain. This needs to be a one button step like on other handhelds.

The squelch feature is great to have but on the other handheld units you have more finite control with a turn type knob.

Overall a fantastic scanner for the money, it really can't be beat. Yes there are some nitpicky issues but Uniden is working on addressing them and once addressed will make the Home Patrol 1 THE unit to have. Uniden needs to come out with the car mount like they said they were going to three months ago.

Any questions on the software or unit feel free to ask.

Buy Uniden Public Safety Receiver (Home Patrol- 1) Now

I'm in a small city in New Mexico and I'm sure that this scanner works perfectly in Dallas or even Albuquerque but it doesn't work where I am. The advertisements state that when you type in your zip code or city you can begin listening to fire, police, emergency transmissions etc. Unfortunately the transmissions come from a database and if your local police, fire, etc. frequencies aren't in the data base you hear nothing at all. The unit looks like you are scanning Police, railroads, etc. but it never stops.

I'd advise contacting Uniden before investing in this expensive unit if you are in a small town or city.

Read Best Reviews of Uniden Public Safety Receiver (Home Patrol- 1) Here

I've owned all types of scanners over my life having to jump to new technologies as radio systems have evolved across this land.

This particular uniden isn't geared towards the advanced user, you know who your are,the ones who are at ease with programming in trunked radio systems,modes,attenuations and the like. This scanner is geared toward general novice scanner users.....and it's a breeze to use for the most part...I really like it's ability to record audio unattended...and replay it displaying the agency and talkgroup just like as if it were capturing the transmission in real time. It's fun to use while sleeping in a hotel, then replaying what happened overnight in a town you're unfamiliar with... You tend to get a feeling of the more crime ridden parts of a community, (Ooh better stay off so in so street on my way to that meeting etc.)

Even though it really is intended for Home use...you can use it while mobile and even attach hockey puck style GPS devices(with a whole lot of wiring) so you can tool down our nations roadways listening where legal as you drive, it will track systems as you move from area to area... Please remember it's unlawful to use and even have a scanner in your car in a few states (MN,IN,KY,FL,SD,NY) ..So those of you who intend on tossing the unit on your dashboard like a GPS, while trucking cross country might run afowl of the folks you're listening to, so play nice..and follow the laws. Just cuz it's lawful to scan in your home, doesn't mean it's lawful nationwide to scan while mobile.

The audio of the unit at home is fine, while mobile it's not as loud as it should be...and an external speaker should be considered...and there's no easy way to mount the unit in many cars simply because of where Uniden chose to place the SMA style antenna. (it's a very poor location).

It has some advanced features buried in the advanced menu portion of the unit , if you want to manually program a frequency, or tell it to avoid specific systems or departments with in 20 miles or so of you...and as discussed in other reviews...the manual is just plainly poorly written and the software isn't the best either. But it's uniden's first real attempt at a scanner for the masses, living with advanced radio systems in their midst, using data from Radio reference to find it's way from city to city , department to department.

All in all a 4 out of 5 , NOT too highly recommended for folks who are used to the technological side of scanning, but rather those who live in a city with advanced public service communications systems and really just wish to listen to what's happening when a siren races past your home. Just pop in the zip, block out (avoid) the systems and agencies you don't want the unit to receive and you're off and running.

Enjoy and remember watch those mobile scanner laws....you don't want a Kentucky State Patrol person rolling a Crown Vic rear tire over your $500.00 HP 1 at the side of the road during a traffic stop.

My objective was to find a user friendly scanner that did not require an advanced degree is math and physics coupled with years of programming experience, and a professional electronics background. This scanner is easy to use right out of the box, and meets that criteria. What a novel idea . . . a product easy to use and understand.

Motorola MJ270R 22-Channel 27-Mile Two-Way Radios

Motorola MJ270R 22-Channel 27-Mile Two-Way RadiosWe live on 23 acres and use these almost every day to stay in touch while I am in the barn, hills etc. They work fine from inside a metal building to inside the house about 500 feet away. Actually they work from anywhere on the property. I tried them from down the road about 1/2 mile away, on the other side of a hill. Could hear the paging sound but we could not understand each other. I like the LED light, it is actually bright enough to be useful at night. Battery life is good, an over night charge lasts all day and then some.

I purchased this with Motorola Earpiece with Boom Microphone. I couldn't first make them work together but the manual has an important detail:

Do not plug the headset when the radio is on. If you do that, then the radio immediately starts transmitting and does not stop no matter what you do until the head set is unplugged.

To use the headset, turn off the radio, plug in the headset, open the radio. When you do that it goes into VOX mode, it will start transmitting in about one second of your speaking. If you press PTT button, the VOX will be cancelled, and if you want to enable VOX again just turn off and on the radio.

Devices work great, they are easy to use on basic functions and require a bit more time for some of the bonus functions but it's to be expected with so many features.

1 Star reduction for the distance claim. While I was not naive enough to believe I would easily get 27 miles, I'm lucky if I'm getting over 2 miles around where I live. I've tested it a few different ways but the range can easily be reduced to a significant extent. Having known that would be an issue going into the purchase, it works great for almost all the uses we had intended it for that didn't involve moderate distance.

The LED is a nice feature, although we haven't had need of it, it has come in handy once or twice. The unit is easy enough for a 3 year old to understand it's basic use and all the features have worked as expected. The charge so far has held up well and we've used it infrequently for about 8 months. If you have neighborhood friends/babysitters/kid's friends then it works great as a replacement to a cell phone. Although our kids are not old enough for a cellphone, it's definitely an alternative.

Being from the "old school philosophy", I hate texting, tweeting, or twittering,

or whatever; we do enjoy being in direct real time communication when we are

up and down hiking paths, out of sight, even in some rough terrain.

This product works well for us and we give it a "thumbs up" for use and effect.

You do have to find the one channel that is not commonly used to have uninterrupted communication; there are many channels to choose from.

We can not say that it will work well with 20 or miles of separation, for we

have only been @5miles apart from time to time. We can hear clearly and use

it easily-and that is what we wanted. Good product.

The one big issue I have with the radios is the battery. The battery does not hold a charge for very long. I finally gave up and pulled it out to replace it with rechargeable AA batteries (3) That worked fine. The sound quality is OK at best. These were used for a cross country road trip and we had areas of limited coverage and areas of ok coverage. We were never more than a mile away from each other. I probably would NOT buy these again.

This little thing just saved my life! At least, during our long driving trips. We have two kids, who were watching movies in the car until they broke the original cable. Their DVD player eventually got broken too, but cable is still good (I purchased it in 2009)!

the item was exactly what we needed works great. We bought the DVD player at a yard sale without the adapter and we were so happy to find an adapter for it since the player was several years old.

This is just want I needed for my portable d.v.d.player now I just need a car so my son can watch the lion king

I bought this adapter for my daughter's portable dvd player. The one that we had quit working & it was hard to find a new one for a reasonable price. I happened to look on amazon & found this one at a very reasonable price. The only drawback on this one is that it is hard to get the plug into the outlet in my car. I have to really push to get it in & wiggle it to get it out. All in all, I am happy with it because it works & my daughter can watch her movies now. I just wish it fit better into the outlet in my car.

Tenergy TN323 Dual 2 port USB Car Charger for iPhone, iPad, MP3 and other USB-chargeable devices

Tenergy TN323 Dual 2 port USB Car Charger for iPhone, iPad, MP3 and other USB-chargeable devicesI picked one up locally from Tenergy.

On the way to work, I plug it in to try. It lit up light blue and charges my Samsung Galaxy S3 ok.

It was about a 40 min drive and it charged 25% on the phone. Base on that, my guestimate is that

it would take about 2.5 hrs to fully charge the phone.

It's output is 1000mA on one port and 500mA if both ports are used.

For less than $3, I think it is fine. Since I just had it, I can't say much about its longevity.

Black & Decker PI100AB Inverter

Black & Decker PI100AB InverterWe bought this to power our laptop and cell chargers while on a road trip to the Grand Canyon. This unit was compact and easily packed in with the laptop. It worked flawlessly and saved our sanity by giving the kids power to "entertain" for some of the less senic drive times. The only minor complaint is the cooling fan, it just added a little white noise noticable at less than cruising speeds. On the plus side it also reminded us that it was sucking power when we would shut down the car. Overall we are very pleased with this purchase.

I got this inverter elsewhere. I'm very happy with it, and I was very amused to see other reviews complaining about how noisy it is. This inverter will power my laptop just fine, as well as charge my blackberry via USB. The noise is acceptable to me. I'm a guy, and I like things that plug into power and make a whirring noise. It makes a whirring noise, so I know it's on, and the green light comes on when it's plugged in to let me know it's providing power to whatever I have plugged into it.

If you have a medium or larger laptop, heed my warning: If you're looking to charge your laptop from a dead battery, this will do it, provided you don't do something stupid like turn the laptop on while it's charging. You have a choice: You can keep the laptop powered by this inverter while your battery is at full power, or you can charge your dead laptop while it's powered off. You will probably ruin the inverter or pop its fuse if you try to charge your dead laptop AND power it at the same time.

I've had other inverters before and this one isn't louder than any of the other ones i've had. It does it's job and is cheap. It's nice to be able to charge my iphone and laptop at the same time.

I was planning to buy Car charger for my two cell phones, Ipod, Digital Camera Charger,video camera charger; but cost for each of them was a big factor, then i got to know about black and decker inverter; It solved all of my problem. The price is quite reasonalble.

Charges all of the device quite efficiently.

Advise, it has low hissing sound; so if you are listening to soft music with your ipod connected, it might spoil the mood. Incase of Ipod first charge it

Warning, the cooling fan inside this inverter is way too noisy to be used in a car. I can't believe Black & Decker can sell something like this without violating a noise safety level regulation, the fan is entirely too loud and the white noise it generates will slowly drive you crazy. It's especially bad if you have a dashboard where the 12V cigarette lighter is close to the steering wheel or heating/AC vents and not far from your ears, like I do. I used it during a 2 hour road trip and my ears were very unhappy by the end of the trip. No amount of music, road noise, or max fan speed setting on the AC could drown it out.

The physical design of the unit is great and the single AC and USB outlets are exactly what I needed. 100W is perfect for laptops, cell phones, and mp3 players, I've had no trouble using any of them with this inverter. I also like the way the neck bends 45 degrees in either direction, that helps get it out of the way somewhat (again, that depends on the placement of the 12V output on your dash).

I guess if your 12V cigarette lighter is near the floorboard this inverter might work for you, but the noise level of the fan is so bad that I would advise everyone to skip this and find something else.
