Peak PKC0CV 4/10/20/40 Amp Intelligent Battery Charger
It works as promised. But the manual is not too clear about how it works. There is no transformer. It's a High Frequency switching power supply and charges by both constant current and constant voltage only near the end. Near the end of charge the microprocessor switches back to constant voltage to top off the battery at a much slower rate.
I set the mode at 40 amps and if the batteries are deeply discharged, it stays steady as a rock at the 40 amps, up until it approaches 90% of the full capacity. Then you can see the charge rate taper off as it slows down the charge until it's full.
I spoke to customer service about the 90 day warranty. They just didn't get around to updating the warranty period to a year. But they have not denied a free exchange to anyone, no matter how long they had it. Of course they want to reserve the right to deny a free exchange if it was abused. IMHO for the money, it's the best in value, rating the performance vs cost.I would like to buy this but just noticed that the warranty is only 90Days!!! That's it???? Only 90days!!! They must not think much of their product!! Even unreliable Vector VEC 1095 offers 5 Years, last time I checked (I had 6 of those).

Charger will be free from defects in material and workmanship for ninety (90) days from the date

Tripp Lite PV150 Portable Auto Inverter 150W 12V DC to AC 120V 5-15R 1 Outlet

We've used this with a variety of cell phone/ipod/handheld game chargers and so far haven't experienced any problems.
Buy Tripp Lite PV150 Portable Auto Inverter 150W 12V DC to AC 120V 5-15R 1 Outlet Now
I have used this inverter in my work van for 3 years. I use it daily (yes, daily!!) to power my DeWatt, Hitashi, Ryobi, 18 volt battery chargers and occasionally my drill doctor, etc. I plan to buy another inverter to run my bedroom 42" lcd tv (200 watts) in an emergency and I will buy this exact same product again. It is slightly noisy(mild whine at best) but that is not a factor for emergencey power. I blew the fuse only once when I overloaded the device and I knew better, but I had to push the limit to learn. Do buy this product, but do plan on spending another well spent $45 dollars on battery cables and clamps, etc. The cig lighter connector is just a convenience and not able to pull the full 375 watts. I spent plenty for twin copper #10 wire and pricy connectors to mount this bad boy inside my van. But it remains the best bang for the buck device. You must pay the extra for heavy amp wireing to your truck battery. Get wise, buy this, then spend again for 12 volt supply wireing and you will never be sorry, and always have power!Excellent design! After much research, I purchased this item and have used it extensively for the past couple months. So far, nothing negative to report. Many reviews commented on how loud the fan was but I barely heard it at all. Nor did it get too warm. It's pretty basic mechanically, so I assume it's as dependable as any other inverter. If you're not sure what size to get, always be on the safe side and GO LARGE! Tripp Lite makes them in various sizes.Want Tripp Lite PV150 Portable Auto Inverter 150W 12V DC to AC 120V 5-15R 1 Outlet Discount?
I bought this item for putting in our minivan in case we needed it on long trips to recharge a laptop, provide power to a DVD player, among other things. It has always worked with no issues. When the car battery starts to get low, it shuts off thus saving us a jumpstart. You can hear it, but not above any road or radio noise. All around a decent product.Wednesday, August 20, 2014

272 Watts Solar Battery Charger Kit for 12V batteries. Flexible Solar Panels PV Laminate, Charge Co
You will need to add a combiner box, fuses and cable to run from the combiner to the batteries. This was almost another $100 in parts for my RV. A battery monitor is a wise investment, also.
I ended up having to pay an RV solar company to complete the install and add a quality battery monitor. I now have a solar system that will get us thru cold nights (furnance fan runs off battery power) when the days are sunny or we drive over 200 miles. These panels do perform better in lower light and partially shaded conditions than the typical rigid panels.
Knowing what I now know, I would buy this system, again. Should I trade motor homes I don't think these can be moved. They are REALLY stuck tight to the roof.

Roadpro 7 Liter 12V Cooler / Warmer with Cup Holders
Keep in mind this unit is NOT a refrigerator or an oven as some reviewers have expected it to be. Pre chill or heat the items and this unit works marvelously all day long.
I also like the fact it only uses 2-3 amps since I plan and using it at times with a remote 12 amp hr. DC power source. This easily gives me a full 3 hours plus of heating or cooling without recharging. I also like that it's 8 1/2 inches tall on the inside for the taller bottles. This also works out great for the primary reason I bought this unit, to heat/cool 20 oz. CO2 tanks for my air rifles/pistols.
I haven't researched all the units or compared all the features but for $40 this Roadpro 7 liter cooler/warmer definitely is a good value regardless. I liked mine so much I purchased another one.
kdWe are very pleased with both Roadpro and their cooler. However, our experience did not start out so well. We received the Roadpro 12V cooler for Christmas 2009, and were so busy we did not have a chance to try it out until after Amazon's 30-day return policy had expired. The first unit we received did not cool at all. We contacted Roadpro through their website, and were pleased with their reply and instructions on how to return the bad unit for a replacement. We did so, Roadpro followed through with a new unit, and it works great. We keep it powered through a "Koolatron Battery Saver" in the car, which prevents the car battery from running down overnight. We also keep a blue cool-pack in the cooler, too help keep it cool when the battery saver turns off the power.
The unit holds a 6-pack of canned soda, or any equivalent amount of drinks or food. We recommend the Roadpro company, the Roadpro 12V Cooler, and the Koolatron Battery Saver.

Well, I ordered this for a long road trip we've just returned from and have to say I'm definitely disappointed. While it works, as in turns on and off, it doesn't actually "work," as in keeping beverages all that cool. Is it cooler than, say, the ambient temperature of your car? Definitely. Is it as cool as a cooler? Not even close.The unit's power connection also seems to loosen frequently with the jiggling motion inherent in a moving car, so that's another downer. Fortunately (????), it's quite loud (fan), so you can tell when it's jiggled itself loose, again, and fix it quickly. I will also note the cup holders on the top are NOT as pictured here, but are instead shallow slots on the top of the unit that are almost too small for a can of soda. At any rate, you wouldn't put a full can in as you have to wiggle the can to get it out and, therefore, spill it all over; which we did, several times. (Also, in case you're wondering, the cup holders are not cooling/heating.)
To sum up, if you put cold from the fridge cans in this unit, they'll say moderately cool as long as the unit is on, but not as cold as they were when you put them in. But this unit will NOT cool warm soda, even after it's been in there for hours, and the top layer of cans (they have to stack on top of each other to fit in 12) doesn't get any cooling at all, necessitating a constant shifting of drinks in order to use it. If you're trying to put in odd-size bottles or anything else ... Well, good luck with that.
We never tried the "keep warm" function but, all in all, I'm sorry I wasted my money and will stick with my $5 cooler and an ice pack from now on.

I'm an over the road truck driver and I run this cooler 24/7 weeks at a time and it has been working as described. While it's not a refrigerator, it does cool enough to keep my milk, butter, and mayonnaise from spoiling. Also plan ahead when putting items in it, because it can cool a room temp drink but will take about 5 hours.UPDATE 2/17/13 Broke after 3 months of use, Fan would come on with green light but just stopped cooling. So exchanged it and then after 2 months the replacement also broke. Same issue fan comes on everything sounds and appears working but just never gets cools. Ended up buying a 44Q Coleman 12v Cooler (ac cord also included)with 2 year extended warranty for $97 out the door at Walmart.

This is a very nice cooler and keeps foods and drinks cold for a long time.I purchased this for my grandson who is a truck driver. The other coolers
he purchased did not retain the cool temperatures for the long time he required.
The only thing that would make it better is that it could be a little larger.

BioLogic Bike Mount for iPhone (fits 3, 3G, 3GS)
Buy BioLogic Bike Mount for iPhone (fits 3, 3G, 3GS) Now
well, I should have believed in some of the reviews I read. On my first time out with my bike I hit a medium sized pothole and the cover popped open and launched my phone across the road... luckily I was able to retrieve it however only to find a smashed glass front. Of course Apple wants $199 to provide me with a replacement. Perhaps BioLogic will send me the $199 for a product that doesn't hold up under real circumstances? If you were using this on a stationary bike, it should work. If you plan on riding this in the "real" world I ABSOLUTELY advise a rubber band or velcro strap around the unit. Best of luck to you.Read Best Reviews of BioLogic Bike Mount for iPhone (fits 3, 3G, 3GS) Here
This was the best option I could find for mounting my Iphone to my motorcycle handlebars. I wanted something that would offer some water resistance and complete coverage for the phone, while allowing me to see and access the screen for navigation apps, ect. I would rate it five stars, if not for the cons listed below.Pros:
-case is well designed and is easy to mount, provides decent protection
-holds steady at 70+mph on a naked motorcycle
-looks good and provides full 360 degrees of orientation
-can be adjusted easily while on the go
Cons:
-expensive for a plastic and rubber mount/case
-home button is held on with adhesive and could peel off
Overall, I am happy with this purchase. Amazon seller, safetycycle provided good service and fast, free shipping via USPS. USPS did crush the packaging, but the product inside was undamaged.

Really was looking forward to having a Bike mount for my iPhone. The plastic looks sturdy enough but nowhere near the what's required the bike mount itself is just a bad construction. Can just pull the the iPhone right off, has no security at all... DO NOT PURCHASE! Hoping Otter Cases comes up with something far better....Saturday, May 24, 2014

Datexx Super Battery Dynamo Cell Phone Charger
Will it charge? Well I hooked my iphone up to the Super Battery, and cranked it for half-an-hour (a painful half-an-hour). According to my multimeter, my battery gained about 3% from the effort. So, that's probably not a good thing for the hand cranking option. As for the built in battery, it's only rated at about 1700mAh. The technical specs says it has a single AA rechargable battery inside. ???? There are a multitude of good quality, low-priced AA rechargables on the market with upwards of 2950mAh per battery. Why choose such a small capacity?
I'm getting ready to crack the Super Battery open and see if I can change the battery and/or add another. If there's room I should be able to increase storage capacity to 5000-6000mAh. That would make it much, much more usefull.After charging this unit up overnight, I plugged the USB adapter to my Motorola Razr v3xx and it did not show a charge light on the phone.
I started cranking the handle and found at slow speed, the phone would show a charge light, if I went too fast, the charge light would go back off.
So if you can be very patient cranking this device while watching the phones charge light to be on, it can work for your Razr v3xx.
Other phones and devices may work with this device

The product worked for most of my USB powered devices, but the huge disappointment was that I had an Ipod Video when I bought this charger, but a few months later I upgraded to an Ipod Touch. The charger DOES NOT work with the Ipod Touch, this wouldn't be a problem if it was clear, but it is not clear, nowhere in the product description this is specified.Read Best Reviews of Datexx Super Battery Dynamo Cell Phone Charger Here
I bought this unit because it said it worked with i-pods. Apparently they didn't mean i-touch i-pods. Guess what I have? It also does not work for Garmin navigation units. Anyway, I've written Datexx Customer Support so we'll see what they say. But at this point, it is a very expensive and very heavy flashlight.Want Datexx Super Battery Dynamo Cell Phone Charger Discount?
It's pretty good, my biggest problem is that the charge from a wall charge on it isn't enough for a full charge on my BlackBerry.The flashlight part is nothing to write home about... sorta dim.
Pretty sturdy besides that...

UPG UBCD5745 Sealed Lead Acid Batteries
These exactly fit Die-hard sears
portable jumper box's...200.71487
Ed DriscollAfter 4 years the batteries on my mower died. I ordered 2 of these and they work great. The only thing I had to do was drill the hole just a bit bigger so the bolt would fit through. I'm pleased with the purchase.
Buy UPG UBCD5745 Sealed Lead Acid Batteries Now
I purchased two of these for my Friendly Robotics RL800 mower and was disappointed with their performance. While initial run time with these batteries was nearly three hours, within a month that time had dropped to less than 10 minutes.Friendly Robotics thought the mower was working correctly and that the problem was these UPGs were not up to the task. I bought B.B. Batteries EB20-12X which have been working fine and have also used the Werker WKA12-18NBs.

After about 5 years or so, the battery pack in my B&D CMM 1200 24V mower died. I live in Canada, and bought the mower at Home Depot, so I went there and they don't sell the replacement batteries. I went to the B&D website, and was redirected to DeWalt, (they merged), where I found their replacement batteries. They were around $150 plus shipping, and also stated "backordered". The cynic in me thinks that this is suspicious, since B&D just came out with that sexy new 36V mower, so maybe they aren't going to support the older 24V anymore--"Can't get a battery? Darn, better buy a new mower........" Anyway, I found these batteries after reading a mower blog (who knew there were mower blogs?). They work just fine. There have been some comments that the posts are different, and that is correct, but I didn't need to modify anything. The factory batteries in my mower didn't have external terminals, but rather had screw holes with the wires secured by screws which themselves formed the posts. These new batteries have two terminals with a bolt going through them as can be seen from the photos. So, the wires are held on with screws in both systems, but the screws face in slightly different directions. There may be different variations of this B&D mower, so maybe in some there isn't any slack in the wires, but in mine it worked just fine.So, if you can get them (maybe not anymore) the factory batteries will cost you about $150-$160 plus shipping, and two of these together were $82 shipped........ I don't know how long they will last, but even if they only last a year or two, I still didn't have to spend over $400 for a new mower yet! I had to pay some brokerage fees to bring the batteries into Canada, but would have had to with the factory battery as well, so it all comes out in the wash.This is the exact replacement battery for my Generac 7500 watt, 13HP generator. My only complaint is that they don't last beyond three years even when kept on a smart charger. Other than that, it's a solid battery, plenty of cranking power and inexpensive.

Rapid Car Charger with IC chip for AT&T Pantech Impact P7000, Reveal C790, Matrix Pro C820 GSM
it works great no problems at all,
the wire feels a little tense
you can tell is not an original item
but it does the job.
i do recommend this product.It works on all pantech devices, it's worth it and cheap is you can get for quality. It's better than buying from the store for $20.I bought this for my Pantech Impact. It came in the mail today, I plugged it into my phone & it promptly got stuck in my phone. I did eventually get it out. However, I will not be using it. It's not worth sending it back as it was very cheap. Now I know why. I based my purchase on the one other review for this product, unfortunately I did not have the same result. I should have known better!!

GTMax Metalic Black 2-Port (2.1A Output 10W) USB Car Charger Adapter for Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Note
The GTMax did not get hot (still felt cool to me) telling me internal circuitry is probably more efficient and a better design, maybe active circuitry. Although I say this without breaking it open and a taking a look.
New phone doesn't have ability to monitor charging voltage, so I don't have a baseline how much the voltage drops when varying loads are applied. Will be my next step sometime down the road.
Either way, I feel much more comfortable using the GTMax USB car charger adapter mainly because of the heat, or lack of self heating.
