This cable should be firesleeved. If you connect it permanently to your battery, and the battery is in the engine compartment (it may or may not be, depending on the vehicle), there are likely hot surfaces in the vicinity. If by chance the cable comes in touch with one of the hot surfaces you are just about guaranteed a short, since the insulation will melt and expose the conductors. The fuse will likely blow (phew!) but the practice is nevertheless unsafe. Recommended only for batteries not in the engine compartment and away from hot spots. Else, buy a permanent fixture insulated with teflon.

Heavy Duty Weather Proof Sport Bike Mount Holder Hard Shell Case for Samsung GALAXY S3 / S III (i93

Heavy Duty Weather Proof Sport Bike Mount Holder Hard Shell Case for Samsung GALAXY S3 / S IIISolid mount Check

Fits phone Check (Galaxy S3)

Waterproof Check

Stays attached to bike Check

I was worried that it might not be solid as it holds an expensive phone that has become an important part of my life.

So far, so good. The mount seems solid and well designed. The phone rests in a rubberized fitted depression inside the case and the hinged front plate locks down on top. It is very secure and well fitted. The part that holds the phone is snapped onto the mount. I was worried that it would be a problem but the locking mechanism seems very solid. I have been on a few rides already with this mounted on the handle bars of my mountain bike. I ride almost exclusively on pavement but I do ride off road a little. The device has survived while riding over curbs, bumps, potholes, and gravel. I have had it out in the rain and it is very waterproof. I trust it to do its job.

This case feels very solid and well made, minus the clear plastic film that covers what would be the front of your phone and the rear camera. The film feels as though you could poke your finger through it. Though I suppose it can't be too thick in order to retain the touch screen functionality. I would give it a 4.5 if I could, it fits my Galaxy S III like a glove.

The bicycle mount also seems to be constructed well. There's padding on the inside of the clamp, so you get a snug fit on your handlebars. There's even a little rubber cover to put over the exposed portion screw that tightens the clamp.

It takes a good deal of force to snap the quick release mechanism into the back of the case. You will get a very audible click once it is properly inserted. This allows you to remove the case from the mount without having to take the phone out. The quick release also prevents the case from falling off the mount. I have this on a mountain bike and didn't have to think twice about whether or not this could handle the terrain.

I haven't had a chance to use this in the raid yet, but it does appear to be weatherproofed fairly well. Do not submerge this in water with your phone in it, it's weatherproof not waterproof!

If you are looking for something to hold your Galaxy S3 while riding your bike, I strongly recommend this mount. Although they claim it is not waterproof, the case keep my phone dry when I was stuck riding in a sudden down pour. The screw included to hold the case to your handlebars is a little short. The case fit perfectly around my son's Giant, but would not on my Trek. I simply went to Lowes and bought a longer screw (4mm X 50mm). The mount now fits perfectly on my Trek.

This heavy duty case and handlebar mount is a great hands-free way to utilize a bike ride app on your smartphone while riding. The rugged case seems strong enough to withstand a ground level crash or drop, although fortunately I can't yet speak from experience on this. Yes the screen cover is thin, but it has to be in order for you to still be able to use the touchscreen! It even has a headphone port so that you can put your earbuds in and listen to music or take an emergency phone call without having to remove the phone from its mount. The case and the mount are two separate pieces with a quick disconnect so when you get to where you're going, a quick push of a button slides the phone and case right off the mount.

The only negative thing I have found so far is that the clockwise/counterclockwise swivel is a bit loose (not the handlebar mount, but the axis that allows you to rotate the phone between upright and horizontal positions). It doesn't really move during road biking or cruising, but every so often a big bump such as hopping a curb will cause the phone to tilt a few degrees sideways. Also due to its size I find the case a bit impractical for everyday use but it literally takes about 2 or 3 seconds to put the case on or take it off.

All in all, it was money well spent in my opinion. I commute to work and school by bicycle so being able to safely have greater access to my phone helps break up the monotony of my daily ride.

Retractable Power Pack (Car Charger & Travel Charger) for Palm Pre

Retractable Power Pack for Palm PreI got these for my Palm Pre Plus and neither of them functioned for charging my device. When using the vehicle charger, the device would lock/freeze requiring a reset each time. The wall charger produced an even odder effect. It sent the device into some sort of weird mode causing each application to open/close, one after another. It was like sending the device into the "twilight zone". After 3 failed attempts, I gave up. I really wanted to love these chargers and if only one had functioned, I would have been okay with that. I loved the way the cords retracted, fast and clean. In the end, I'm giving them 2 stars because they work just fine with my enV2. Both are micro ports; however, I guess the Pre Plus has some incompatibility issue.

SODIAL(TM) Rubberized Retractable Car Charger for Apple iPhone 4 (Black)

SODIAL(TM) Rubberized Retractable Car Charger for Apple iPhone 4I was a little skeptical about purchasing this item, given the price was so cheap. I figured since it was so inexpensive I didn't have much to lose. It arrived earlier than I thought it would, I wasn't expecting it for a couple more weeks. I plugged it in to my car and phone and in a 15 minute drive, it charged my phone 10%faster than I expected. The only problem is the retractable cord. It appears to have a button you push to pull out and retract the cord. I did not see it when I initially pulled the cord out and I think I "sprung" the retract mechanism inside. This is entirely my faultuser's error. Just wanted to mention it for future users. The charger still works well though.

When I selected this product it didn't have much of a description. My only requirement was that it must be new. When I received this product, the product was not new. It was obviously used and a bit defected. The plug that connects to my iPhone does not stay in and easily falls out because the plug is broken and therefore does stay in iPhone so I cannot charge my iPhone. Additionally, when I received the product, it didn't come with anything nor was it wrap properly. It only came in an envelope which was a bit worrisome right away because i realized right away that the product was used.

Coleman Cable 08471 12-Feet Medium-Duty Booster Cable with Non-Polar Glow Clamps, 8-Gauge

Coleman Cable 08471 12-Feet Medium-Duty Booster Cable with Non-Polar Glow Clamps, 8-Gaugevery bare bones but fully functional jumper cables to throw in the trunk of your car. lacks the fancy safety heavy coverings on the grips you will find in much higher priced versions. if you know what you are doing and understand the protocol for safely jump starting a vehicle, don't spend the extra money on a heavier set, this set will serve you just fine.

The Coleman jumper cables are great good quality material. Five stars.

I'm posting this review specifically to remind other potential buyers to review the "Cable Type Selection Guide" (which is featured in one of the product photos). Don't make a dumb mistake like me and buy 8-gauge cables for your full size pickup truck. I am giving these 8-gauge cables to my wife for her sedan and buying Coleman 4-gauge for my vehicle...

For the price of this product, you can't go wrong if you need to jump start your car in a hurry or emergency. My car battery dies often and in the last 3 weeks we've had to jump it 4 times. This does the job. The cable is a little short so you just need to make sure the cars can be relatively close together.

I ordered these for emergency purposes in my 3rd car. The cable is fine, but the clamps on each end are flimsy and I am not sure how well they will clamp to a side terminal battery, if at all. Since my Toyota used top terminals I decided to keep them and hope if I ever need a jump, they will also have top terminals available. Checked Walmart website after buying and they have similarly priced items, so consider looking at brick and mortar before purchasing these "name brand" cables.

Sunforce 22007 Coleman 7.5W Folding Panel

Sunforce 22007 Coleman 7.5W Folding PanelDuring this review, I am going to be comparing the Sunforce 22007 Coleman 7.5W Folding Panel to the Goal Zero Nomad 7, which is the only other solar charger that I have had experience with and the product with which it is competing. Right out of the box, I was impressed by its compactness. I opened its velcro latch and spread it out. The charger has square, polycrystalline solar panels that make efficient use of space. The panels don't have a perfect appearance, as the horizontal conductive lines are inconsistent, but I don't expect this to hurt the panel's performance. Along the edges it has rope loops that are meant to be attachment points, which are comparable to the Nomad 7. On the back of the panel, there is a zipper enclosure that includes a power regulator which has a permanently attached 12 Volt adapter and a female, USB port. When you unzip the pouch all the way, the 12 Volt adapter tends to fall out. I couldn't wait to test it out, so I ran outside and pointed it toward the sun. At 3 in the afternoon on a clear day, I measured 5 Volts and .83 amps (A little over 4.15 watts). Compared this to the Goal Zero Nomad 7, which measured 5 Volts at .65 amps (3.28 watts) under the same conditions. I am guessing this difference in performance is due to the 0.5 extra watt of power rating from the Coleman Sunforce panel, as well as a better USB power regulator.

I tested the panel in low light conditions: An overcast morning, and it didn't produce any power, whereas the Goal Zero Nomad 7 did produce 5 Volts at 40 mA. This difference is probably due to polycrystalline solar panels vs monocrystalline solar panels, which are known for the low light efficiency. This was a very low light test.

I also tested it in a mostly cloudy midday sun situation: The Sunforce Coleman panel produced 5 Volts at .35 amps, whereas the Nomad 7 produced 5 Volts at .3 amps. They were both able to start a charging cycle on my phone under these conditions: 65 percent sky coverage according to the National Weather Service with stratocumulus perculidus clouds, with very little sky visible. This result reinforced my confidence in the Sunforce panel, given my foggy morning test the day before.

I purchased this solar charger to provide me with power while camping, so its compact nature is a plus, and it will be an invaluable resource when in an emergency situation. Knowing that you will be able to charge your communication and navigation devices with only the power of the sun is a great feeling. At this price, I couldn't pass trying it out, as I intend on getting more as gifts.

Compared to Goal Zero:

Pros:

Better output. at 3 PM 5 Volts .8 amps compared to 5 Volts .65 amps with Goal Zero in direct sunlight.

Smaller

Lighter (Even with 12V adapter. It isn't removable)

Cons:

12 Volt adapter tends to flop about when you open the zipper.

The usb port is very close to the zipper enclosure if you intend to enclose your charging device within the zipper. (This may have not been intended by the designer)

Perhaps slightly less low light performance.

I don't have any special equipment to give you hard numbers on voltage or amperage but I can tell you that it will charge my iPad2 to 87% with out the need for an external battery pack like my Nomad 7 system does.

The unit is not as "universal" as the Goal Zero system, but it does have a 12 cigarette lighter permanently attached for 12 volt charging and a single USB plug.

Edit 1-11-13

I'm updating my review and taking away 2 starts as it no longer functions after being exposed to moisture/rain. I plugged in my panel to charge a lawn tractor battery that powers my gate on a cloudy day. It started to rain, but I was not worried as the charger was out of the direct rain fall and it is "weatherproof". The next day I went out with my volt meter and was not getting any output from the 12 volt plug or any power from the USB plug.

I still think this panel is a good overall deal, but it is not weatherproof.

---Up date/ Feb 17,2013-----

My second one was broken. When I used it with putting on windshield of my car under the sun, and when I removed it

from the windshield in evening, this panel got quite hard to fold completely but I pushed it to fold it.

Since then it didn't create voltage. When I open it and change open angle from 0-270 deg, it won't make voltage, but

if I open it over 270deg, it makes 16.5V at cigar socket under full sunlight.

I am sure somewhere in folding part wire was cut in side.

I change my mind from my original review that it maybe not good product.

Anyway,

I wondered how this only two panels makes more than 12V.

I disassemble everything and found circuit board in the black box where the cigar socket wire and USB output are there.

On the circuit board, there's a L7805CV which is 5V,1A regulator for USB and MC34063A which is a switching regulator

IC that can be used for voltage step up/down or inverting to AC and it is used as step up converter on this circuit board.

I fed 9V to the circuit wires where solar panel power come in and cigar socket output is about 16.5V.

This is why this small 2 panel makes such high voltage.

DO NO USE it WITH SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLERS.

Solar charge controllers often have reverse voltage when it is connected to battery at night.

This cigar socket has schottky barrier diode SS14 in the black box but it seems my 1st 7.5W solar's

circuit was broken by reverse voltage from charge controller, SK-6. SK-6 was also broken at the same time.

======Original review=============================================

This is my first solar panel. It has 1 USB port and 1 cigar lighter socket.

Open circuit voltage goes to more than 40V in full sunlight here in Houston. Typical would be 18V.

Short circuit current is about 600mA and slightly more, 12V x 0.6A =7.2W, so it work as it is advertised.

I do not use USB port so much so I do not know well about it drives my USB fan which other solar/lithium

ion battery couldn't drive.

Actually I bought this panel twice, first was from local shop about $46, 2nd in amazon, Amazon was much cheaper than the shop.

I also never see this power of folding panel in this price. It's really good price for folding/7.5W panel.

I broke my 1st one so I disassemble all cover of it and found it was quite well made,

It was really hard to disassemble. Glue was all over the back side of the panel except only

soldering connection points.

Panel its self is water proof but I would say 12V to 5V convert circuit would not be water proof.

As other review also reports, yes the pocket zipper should come from the other way, I agree that.

but this time I modified my panel so this won't be problem for me.

Anyway it's good for my first experiment of Solar charging. I'll step up to bigger wattage panel next.

I actually put this on my head and walked around with it during a rally. It baarrely kept my phone up. This is because the panels are crystalline and they don't put out much if they don't have full sun. On the other hand, the flexible thin film panels don't get as much power per square centimeter even when they have full sun. So it's a trade off. These panels performed as expected. When left in the sun and not moved they kept my device fully charged. And the price is the best you can find, name brand even, seems like it will last.

I use it to charge the battery pack that I have. This in conjunction with the panels for the battery charge the 9200mAh battery in 2 days, without ever being plugged in. The battery pack fully charged, can charge up my ipad a little over one time from a really dead battery.

Car Black Box Kit - Includes Car DVR Camera Recorder with 2.5-Inch Screen and HDMI Out

Car Black Box Kit - Includes Car DVR Camera Recorder with 2.5-Inch Screen and HDMI Out
  • 1280x720 Color Video, Format: AVI, Speed: 30fps
  • 2.5" Color display
  • Real Time and Date display
  • Automatically Starts recording when car is powered on
  • HDMI output

Night video leaving a gas station. Not too great quality wise but I guess if you were involved in an accident, it would be better than nothing. Overall, the camera is decent. Daytime is alright. You can't really see license plate numbers or signs during the day, even on the highest quality setting. Those little details get blurred out. The highest setting isn't really HD, and playback is slow while on the setting.

This product is far more than I expected! I bought this because I saw on TV where a father Installed one of these in his teenage daughter's car so he could see if she was driving safely. She had an accident and the insurance company ruled the accident her fault until the father played them the saved recording and the insurance company then ruled the accident was not her fault. We don't have any teenage drivers but the TV segment was enough for me so I bought this. It is not only a Vehicle camera like the police use but also a camcord and still photo camera away from the vehicle on the 3 hour rechargeable battery. Also an excellent audio/video tool to use handsfree to record any conversation that you may have with a Police Officer that pulls you over! If the device records an accident ahead of you or at an intersection just down load the recording to a DVD-R/VCR and sell the recording to a TV station. Yep I'm glad that I bought this and I also bought a 32Gig memory card but the device will accept a 64Gig card if you want tons of storage.

I bought this camera in early Dec 2011 based on the reviews. It worked great at first but has slowly deteriorated to the point I may have to throw it out the window onto the Interstate. :) Mine is horrible now and of course it's past the point where I can return it. So, the cam locks up. There's a small reset button on the bottom but very dangerous to reset while driving as you have to get a small needle to stick in the reset hole. It also just stops recording for no apparent reason. I drove 4 hours to day and 4 times I had to turn it off, back on, then manual start the record. The "motion" options is basically worthless so I let it record all the time (which uses much more sdcard space. I highly recommend you avoid this dashcam.

Works pretty good. Nice quality for daytime recording but night recordings are pixelated if your headlights are the only light source. If you are in town with street lights and building lights, not bad.

Camera physically seems to be pretty fragile. Feels more like a child's toy camera. The hinge on the display screen seems kind of flimsy.

I like the rollover recodings that replace the older ones as the card gets filled. I ran two 8Gb cards and was able to get 4 hrs on each card. Came in pretty handy a couple of times when accidents happened in front of me and for drunk drivers going along in front as well.

Controls are a little awkward until you rememeber which button does what then it's pretty easy to make settings changes.

The mount could be a little more flexible on the positioning. I tried to set mine to be flat but with the positioning "teeth" it had it pointing down a little. Still worked but just an annoying thing to me. The suction cup worked great. I have seen alot that will fail when it gets warm out and your item falls off while going down the road. This thing hung on great. I moved it once but before re-attaching it. Make sure the cup is clean and a little damp...will hold again without issue.

Definately not for professional or business use. I don't think it would stand up to the constant use. But great otherwise.

Good video quality. I liked how it buffered the video into segments and rotated the segments by overwriting the oldest segment. I got about 2.5 hours loop time of hi-def video from a 8gig memory. BUT.....The unit worked for only a few months before dying. It is a cheaply made Chinese item.

Car DashBoard Video Camera Vehicle Video Accident Recorder DVR - 1080P Full HD Resolution Video, 2.

Car DashBoard Video Camera Vehicle Video Accident Recorder DVR - 1080P Full HD Resolution Video, 2.0' LCD DisplayAfter much research and deliberation, I ended up with this. It was originally in Russian but the manual was great and it took 10 seconds to get it to English.

I use a 8Gb MicroSD card, record in 1080P with 5 minute loops and this gives me about 2-3 hours of recording before it erases the oldest file. Each 5 minute video is approx. ~140-150Mb. Some people might complain that it erasing so fast is bad and what if they need something later; well, if there is an occurrence that you need to keep lock the file and it won't delete it. Otherwise, this is an install & forget device. It's great to have and isn't a nuisance and if an accident or ticket arises, will help you out immensely.

I work in Insurance and this is exactly what people need. The inaccuracies with human witnesses are too unreliable to be helpful during a claim or ticket dispute.

During the day, picture is great, if the sun is directly facing the camera; obviously there is a glare but that's unavoidable.

Can read street names, license plates everything it needs to do.

During nighttime, I personally do not turn on the 2 LED lights in the front, they are bright and don't add much quality.

Nighttime recording is a bit less detailed, given it's nighttime. But at stoplights it will record license plates and street signs depending on the type of sign. It shows the stoplights current color great and reflective lines in the street.

Audio is a bit meh, but what purpose does audio serve? None. Insurance / police don't care to hear you singing the Top 40 on the radio prior to the accident / that stop sign ticket violation, they care about visual proof.

The car cord is like 10 ft long, so when unraveling it, I would recommend not un-bundling all of it, just what you need to adequately have the cable connected and the rest tied up.

Overall, I am completely satisfied with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a dash cam.

There are rightfully many mixed reviews about this car-cam on here. At first, mine had stopped working too, but it wasn't the camera's fault. In fact, the car-cam works perfectly fine if it's configured correctly. Here's how: 1. Do not buy a Class 10 micro-card. It will stop working soon after. Amazon recommends it by default, but it is wrong 2. Buy a Class 4 micro-card instead. The car-cam works with an older technology, so you must use the Class 4 type of card. I bought and used this one: Kingston 16 GB Class 4 MicroSDHC Flash Card with SD Adapter SDC4/16GB and it works 100%. With the Class 10, mine stopped working after the card filled up, or thereabouts. After I read some detailed websites about car-cams, it's imperative you use the Class 4. I hope this helps both new buyers and older buyers as well, since Amazon is recommending the wrong type of card. Other than that, the camera works perfectly fine for $55. The playback is good enough for road use. The on/off with the car ignition is awesome too. Been working for a few months with no issues.

Buy Car DashBoard Video Camera Vehicle Video Accident Recorder DVR - 1080P Full HD Resolution Video, 2. Now



I have gone back and forth, trying to decide which camera to get. I finally got this one. CHECK MY VIDEO and you will see that this was a GREAT investment. The Clarity of this camera is amazing. Dont be fooled by the quality, when uploading videos, the videos lose some clarity. HOWEVER, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO READ THE LICENSE PLATES from the video in its Raw being (but of course you have to be close enough).

There are people that complain about how this camera isnt great quality. Well seriously, for about $50, what did you really expect? If you want TRUE 1080p, then mount a digital camera or a Real camera to get that quality.

For those of you who only need this for insurance purposes or to save your own ass, buy this gadget!

My only complaint is the fact that the mount is a bit flimsy (NOT THE SUCTION--THE SUCTION TO THE WINDSHIELD IS PERFECT). It's the fact that when I lean in to push the Power button, or the Record button, the Camera comes off the mount. I dont know, maybe its just me? Maybe I am not mounting it in correctly...

I bought this for my car after watching to many Russian YouTube videos. I had problems with it at first but I figured out that this camera cannot handle a 32gb sd card like it says even a top of the line one. I purchased a 16gb class 10 top of the line sd card and haven't had any problems now. It's pretty awesome, it shows date time and so on, really good video recorded. Turns on and records automatically when I start the car. So for the price it's worth it just make sure not to get to large of a sd card, if it wasn't for that it would get 5 stars. And I wish that the windshield mount swiveled. But it's a really good suction cup. :)

Decent dash cam, you can easily read license #'s when your within 15 feet of the car in front. Does not offer a very wide angle of view, but will cover the nose of your vehicle, so you can show if someone cuts you off then brake checks you. Within 2 weeks my mount melted off my windshield from the sun. So if you live somewhere south of Colorado, you have to remove the mount every time you stop, and replace it every time before you go somewhere. I am currently making a super glue mount to my dash to put it back in working order (I don't care about ruining the dash). The cord will reach from anywhere inside the vehicle. Make sure you order a large SD card, I have a 4 GB in and get about 7, 5 min "1080p" (note: not really 1080p) loops.

Rapid Car Kit Auto Plug-in Power Charger for Verizon Samsung Gem i100 - Tmobile Samsung Exhibit 4G

Rapid Car Kit Auto Plug-in Power Charger for Verizon Samsung Gem i100 - Tmobile Samsung Exhibit 4G - Samsung Gusto - Samsung Intensity 2 U460 - Verizon Samsung Convoy 2 U660 Cell Phone - BestCellBuy BrandExtremely well made and as sturdy as the $30.00 adapters from Verizon store. Does the job at a fraction of the price!

I purchased it from Electromaster for less than 3 bucks... with free shipping. It works and how many times I get to use it before it fails is an unknown but for the price I don't really care... especially since I rarely charge my phone in the car so it's a just-in-case purchase.

2-in-1 Sync & Charge USB Travel Kit (USB Cable & Car Adapter) for Motorola Atrix 4G

2-in-1 Sync & Charge USB Travel Kit for Motorola Atrix 4GThe reason I purchase this USB charger kit was because I was hoping I could also use it to charge my ipod if need be. However whenever I added the Apple USB cable, it wouldn't charge any of my Ipods. It did charge all of my Motorola products so it works fine, though to charge 10% of the battery takes 20 minutes, so it's not the most efficient charger.

What more can be said? It cost $3 and some change so it beats paying retail price for the same product which do the same thing.

AirBedz DC Automotive Charger Cord

AirBedz DC Automotive Charger CordI ordered the car charger because I didn't know that one was included with the Air Bedz mattress. Nice quality though, and for the price, I will keep it as a spare. Very satisfied.

Jump-N-Carry JNC950 2000 Peak Amp 12V Jump Starter

Jump-N-Carry JNC950 2000 Peak Amp 12V Jump StarterWe use this jump starter everyday usually several times a day to help guests at our commercial shopping center. It works much better than any other type of jump starter pack and what I like best about it is that you can replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. No need to buy another jump pack. It will definitely save money in the long run. Those cheap imitation jump packs can't stand up to repeated chargings and uses.

If you need a powerful jump starter with the capability to be an alternate power source for 12 VDC products this is it. It is a little large but If you want to run a portable cooler or similar device for nearly 8 hours at a shot this is the best with 32 amp hours of reserve power. We used it to power our cooler and keep our food cold and milk fresh when our car was parked and we were touring various sights on a 6000 mile 22 day adventure vacation. We would power the cooler from the car when we were driving but to avoid draining the car battery down when the car was parked we would use the Jump-N-Carry. At night in the hotel rooms we would recharge the Jump-N-Carry and power the cooler from AC. We paid for the price of the Jump Start with the left over restaurant food we saved in the cooler to eat later. This product will be with us for a long time for a supplemental 12 VDC supply and as an emergency jump start unit. The Jump-N-Carry is really great product.

I had decided to spring for this unit as opposed the "660" because of the few [but amazing] reviews I had read (particularly the ability to leave it plugged in and it won't overcharge). The 660 comes up as #1 in regards to user reviews here on amazon, but that simply because of the NUMBER of reviews. This JNC950 unit has equally good reviews, but only 10% of the reviewERS. Well, I decided to spend the extra for this unit. It jump started my 91 camaro from a complete cold and dead battery didn't have to hook directly to battery terminals either. It then started an old piece of crap camry several hours later. This thing was seam less both cars cranked as if their batteries were completely charged.

if you're looking at the 660, but want something even more hardcore buy this unit. It's worth it, it's not a toy (heavy as hell) and will jump start anything. no frills attached, no light, no nothing. just a jumpstarter.

I worked for a police department of about 125 sworn officers. Modern squad cars are full of electronic gadgets of one type or another some of which, when left on, slowly drain the batteries. A previous jump-starter purchases resulted in three poorly performing devices that turned out to be a waste of money.

I did a little research and found the JNC950. It has been very reliable and can stay plugged into a wall socket indfinitely without degrading, as do many of the other units. I can start 10-15 cars on one charge with this device.

I've been so impressed with the effectiveness of this jump starter that I went out and bought one for myself, to travel with.

Roadside Assistance programs use low-bid wrecker services. Those companies will always give higher priority to "full-pay" clients so when the really bad weather hits you will w a i t .

If you need an "emergency" jump start the JNC950 is far better insurance!

As a owner of a small car dealership, this has got to be one of the best investments that I have made. It is the absolute BEST Handheld Jump Box on the market. It will start any automobile plus with the cigarette lighter plug in. you can carry use it for other purposes. I love the automatic charge feature whereas, I plug it up when not in use and not worry about it over charging the jump box. It weighs probably 25-30 lbs; however, it is a lot easier to carry this than to roll around a portable jump starter. The value you receive is outstanding when compared to a cheaper jump box. You can not go wrong with this. Plus the Battery does come with it contrary to the rolling jump box where you have to buy the battery seprate.

Schumacher SE-1-12S Fully Automatic Onboard Battery Charger - 1.5 Amps

Schumacher SE-1-12S Fully Automatic Onboard Battery Charger - 1.5 AmpsI am fortunate enough to maintain two houses one in the mid-West for the summer and a second one in the Palm Springs area for the winter. Rather than drive 1500 miles each way I have a couple of cars in each location so each set will sit idle for six months of the year which means I usually have two dead batteries when I arrive for the season. I tried a cheaper brand of trickle charger in the desert last year and it worked but I was afraid that if it burned out I would still return to dead batteries. I really like the quality of the Schumacher products having two of their multifunction battery chargers that have worked well for over 10 years. When I saw that they offered high quality trickle chargers I bought two of them to make the switch to worry free charging. The chargers are well built and heavy for their size and the build quality is typical Schumacher. The chargers are intended to be installed in the engine compartment with battery connections that are permanently connected to the charger and for power a short plug comes out of the side of the unit and is easily connected to a grounded extension cord. I really didn't want to install these under the hood even though they supply the mounting brackets and screws required but I did like the idea of the permanent connection to the battery as opposed to a clamp which could fall off in the middle of the season and leave me with a dead battery. Remembering how the chargers connected in the Power Wheels toys my sons had several years ago, I was able to find polarity keyed plug connectors in the trailer wiring section of the local auto parts store and now have a short pigtail permanently connected to the battery and the ability to plug and unplug it into the charger when I want. Now I have the best of all worlds, the security of a solid connection to the battery and the flexibility of being able to plug and unplug the charger with ease. I like this a lot.

I installed this in one of my SUV's that is not driven for weeks at a time.

The Schumacher unit keeps a perfect charge and does not overheat or dry out the battery. The clock, radio, and GPS settings are all preserved and the charger does not seem to draw much power when the battery is charged. I am very satisfied with the operation of the unit.

The installation was a breeze with the included hardware and the instructions were clear and easy.

I do have two small complaints, however:

(1) The battery lugs were way too big for my vehicle and all other cars that I checked.

(2) The AC plug is too short to run anywhere. I wanted the plug to reach to just outside the vehicle's grill, so that the unit could be plugged in without opening the hood. I had to install an extra extension cord for that purpose.

Good product. 4 stars b/c the manual is misleading. There is a table that tells you what the lights mean, but it is hard to understand. I'll translate: If top light is green and bottom if off, the battery is charging. If the top light is green and the bottom light is red, you battery is charged. If the top light is off, then the unit isn't getting power from the wall. Funny how this crucial info is so messed up in the instructions. Happy charging!

I had a problem. A very bad car accident left me partially disabled. So these days I do very little driving. Just getting to and from the store and that's about it.

The problem I had is that I seldom drove long enough or far enough to fully charge my car battery, and on more than one occasion I'd get in it to go somewhere and the battery would be dead.

I've used a number of trickle chargers in the past. But there's the problem of digging them out and unhooking them when the battery is ready.

This charger, however, has been perfect for me and my situation. It's mounted permanently under the hood so I always know where it is. It charges the battery fully then shuts itself off. I can leave it plugged in for weeks and it shuts itself off automatically. When I'm ready to use the car, I unplug it and go. When I park the car in the garage for what always turns out to be extended periods, I plug it in and on my next trip the battery has a full charge. My days of getting into the car only to discover the battery died are over.

If your situation is similar, or if you own a vehicle that only gets occasional use, like a truck for errands or an RV, this could be the thing for you.

Works great to keep your battery topped off on cold winter nights, and for days of long storage. Instead of dragging out your conventional charger and cables, then putting everything away when finished! Just mount this small unit under your hood, plug in a small AC extension cord, and close the hood. (not affecting alarm operation). It can charge a dead battery (not recommended) but it can take 24 to 36 hours.

Battery Tender Cigarette Lighter Adapter 081-0069-5

Battery Tender Cigarette Lighter Adapter 081-0069-5I have several of these lighter adapters and they work great with the Battery Tender Plus. Many car manufactures have their cigarette lighters controlled by their ignition. So when the key is off the lighter is not functional. That is not the fault of the battery charger company. This is the design of the vehicle.

I use this in my BMW's. Otherwise, ya gotta smash the cord in the trunk or disconnect the trunk light which never turns off in my BMW E39 models. Just crack a window, plug this baby in, run the cord through the window, & presto chargo... trickle charge away using a Battery Tender Plus 1.25 amps.

This little neat tool lives in my battery tender pouch, and I use it for keeping the odometer and radio stations and clock when changing batteries. I live in AZ so with 4 cars it seems like I'm always changing batteries. On most cars you have to turn to accessories, 1st click, plug this in, and then change the battery. Great quality as all the other battery Tender products. I can highly recommend all the models. My favorite is the water proof 800ma...that thing is indestructible! I've accidentally run it over with my truck, no damage! Also, get a 6 or 12' extension, they are cheap and SO handy! BTW, the 800 works overseas 120-240 with just a cheap plug changer....my dad keeps one in his humid garage and always plugs the cars in during the winter! NEVER a starting problem.

The cigarette lighter adapter for the Battery Tender allows one to plug the unit into the cigarette lighter inside of the vehicle to keep the vehicle battery charged. Without it, I had to unlatch and raise the hood of the car, and then connect the Battery Tender by some "alligator clips" to the car battery. This is a handy device that is easy to use and saves one the hassle of having to raise the hood and connect the Battery Tender to the automobile battery. 'Get one!
