USB Data Cable + USB Car + USB Home Travel Charger for Sandisk Sansa View

USB Data Cable + USB Car + USB Home Travel Charger for Sandisk Sansa View
  • This Combo Pack Includes: One USB Charger, One USB Home Charger, One USB Data Cable,
  • Charger: Input: 100V - 240V (U.S. & World Standard), LED light power indicator, Best replacement for original charger.
  • Intelligent IC chip inside recognizes a fully charged battery and automatically switches to a saver mode to prevent overcharging and short circuit.
  • USB cable: 2-In-1 Features: Hotsysnc & Charging. Connect your iPod with your PC/Laptop by USB port.Software & technical support not included.

I purchased this item with great hope based on the reviews submitted. However, when I received I noticed the items were not the same as those pictured. Also the moment I plugged the wall charger in the wall and tried to remove it, one AC prong stayed stuck in the outlet. It just pulled right out of the wall charger. So I gave the USB cable a chance but that did not work out great either. When I plugged it into my computer, it did charge the Sansa and it seemed to work. But while transferring files to the Sansa it crashed. This never happened with the original cord. All in all the quality is very cheap, as is evident in the price.

If it helps anyone the items I purchased claimed to be produced by BargainCell but they shipped from iShoppingDeals. I mention this because while writing this review I noticed the same item link now states it ships from a different seller. So perhaps that could make all the difference. Considering the price I may not return the kit but its still money lost so I hope this review helps others.

It does what it is supposed to do-it charges the Sansa View quickly and efficently.

I ordered this because Best Buy doesn't sell accessories for non-iPod mp3 players. It worked to charge my Sansa View only once or twice but now I have to manipulate the connection of cable to device to ensure contact. Disappointed.

Worked well charged up right away ots all black in color. Cord not very long.Quality looks cheap but its still a great buy

Ramsond® 20 Watt 20W W Solar Panel Module 12V Nominal Output RV Boat Battery Charger Charging Tric

Ramsond® 20 Watt 20W W Solar Panel Module 12V Nominal Output RV Boat Battery Charger Charging Trickle BoatThis is a nice panel that upon voltmeter assessment in full sun, actually slightly exceeded the amperage rating by the manufacturer. The open circuit voltage (Voc) is also at the rated voltage. The build quality appears to be good with the exception of the sealing of the panel on the back side. The original panel I ordered actually was not sealed in the back at all. I sent it back for a replacement, which they did with a free return shipping label as it was defective. However, the replacement panel also had a poor quality silicon sealant job done on the 4 sides on the back of the panel where the white tedlar backing joined the aluminum frames. I just caulked it myself as I didn't want water intrusion over time. I was also tired of returning a panel that only cost me 65 bucks including shipping.

Overall a good buy for the money. They could do better with the quality control. I anticipate it will hold up well overall, however and it has a 25 year output warranty.

The "weatherproof" box doesn't seem to be completely weatherproof to me. But that's my opinion, so I can't say for sure whether it is or isn't weatherproof. Buy waterproof sealant, which is up to you, DC rated cables and crimp-able (sp? ) connectors and a crimping tool if you don't have them. There are two holes with rubber plugs for the wires. You'll have to punch a hole through each of the rubber plugs. This panel doesn't supply enough watts to keep my 68AH agm vehicle SLI battery fully charged, which has an mppt solar charger, when it's sitting on the dashboard under the front window, but it sucks up ~1.2 amps when it's outside in direct sunlight. Edit: The solar panel has enough juice to float my battery after two or more sunny days in NY.

I am disabled and do not drive alot so at times my car{Ford crown-vic police interceptor} is a slow crank or once in a while not at all. I installed this on my rear deck and it does just enough to keep my battery topped off and give me a fast crank all the time. I live in solar zone 5 mid atlantic with ave. 4.2 hours of sun. Although for its output I don't need to, I am running it thru a control unit. I am very pleased with my results. It has a sturdy aluminum frame and about 3" x 4" black plastic junction box for easy connection with pre-drilled holes and can easily be daisy chained. All cells are clean with no breaks.

I bought it last week and I used it today for about 3 hours around noon in full sun, Houston Texas. Short circuit current is about 1.10-1.2A in peak, it was good. I charged my SLA battery 12V 7.2Ah for a while and found there are more than 10 spots changing color on the cells. Also some cells started changing its color. Back side is still looking Ok though, It's tyipical connection defect in production line I guess. I felt it's not safe to use without anyone attending, so I am preparing to return.

Solid type solar panel is quite reliable for the structure compaired to folding type, so I liked it first, but this time, my unit isn't so nice. If it didn't have such heat spot problem, I would have liked it very much. I want replacement and want to try good unit.

Samsung Replenish M580 Combo Rapid Car Charger , Home Wall Charger , USB Data Charge Sync Cable

Samsung Replenish M580 Combo Rapid Car Charger , Home Wall Charger , USB Data Charge Sync CableThe car charger didn't work the USB cord didn't fit his phone. Only thing that worked was the wall charger that has a blue light on it to let you know that cord is plugged in the wall.

Doesn't even deserve 1 star. My usb charger cord was broke upon arrival. I plugged my.phone in and the metal piece that gets inserted got stuck when removed. And the car charger got fried as soon as I plugged it in. I know its not my 12V socket because I have several other items I plug in. Would not reccomend!!!!!

Original Magellan OEM Power AC Adapter wall charger for Maestro 5310 and Roadmate 1700 GPS Navigato

Original Magellan OEM Power AC Adapter wall charger for Maestro 5310 and Roadmate 1700 GPS Navigator-P/N AN0204SWXXX
  • Brand New in Bluk Package
  • Original Magellan Adapter
  • Build in Dynamic IC Charge IC & Power fuse for rapid charging and over charge protection
  • for Magellan Maestro 5310 & Roadmate 1700 GPS

I have a Magellan Roadmate 1700 that works well both inside and outside my house. With this power supply, I am able to set up my routes and charge the battery inside my house. The battery never did get fully charged while in my car, but does charge in the house.

Received quickly from the vendor. Plugged it in and it works well. I use it to plan trips inside the house prior to getting into the car. I find it a critical accessory since the GPS battery has a short life.

Want Original Magellan OEM Power AC Adapter wall charger for Maestro 5310 and Roadmate 1700 GPS Navigato Discount?

This is a surprisingly good product. I have a very good GPS in my car, integrated with OnStar. I bought the Magellan so that I could plug it into a rental car after flying to Florida. I also bought the adapter so that I could program in the places I wanted to visit before I left home in Canada.

The Magellan was quite good almost as good as the one in my car, which cost about 30 times more. It is very easy to program and it is easy to read and hear in strange surroundings. Most of Florida is pretty simple to navigate on one's own but Miami is a nightmare for all but the cognoscenti. There, the Magellan was dead-accurate. I would have been lost without it. It saved my bacon several times.

My only quibble would be the geeky voice with a Spanish accent, but I guess that's the state of the art. Also, be careful programming the right options. If you "minimize freeways," Magellan can take you on a horrendous detour to save a two buck toll. Once I made this mistake once and realized the error, there was no problem.

I purchased the Magellan OEM power AC adapter in August 2011 but didn't open the package until February 2012. The cord was enclosed but not the part that plugs in to the outlet. I contacted this company knowing too much time had lapsed to return but expected at least some response. Received no acknowledgement from them at all.

5 Volt Polycrystaline Solar Panel

5 Volt Polycrystaline Solar Panel
  • Solar cell type polycrystalline
  • Produces up to 1 watt
  • US dimensions: 3X5 inches
  • Metric dimensions: 82 X 128 mm
  • Thickness 1 inch (2.5mm)

Ok so it isnt the cheapest pannel of this type and size that you can get, you already know that.

so what is different about it? how well does it work?

Unlike some other epoxy covered PCB mounted solar cell items this one is much lighter, it is not a thick coat epoxy style.

this makes it much better for portability.

when weight is important this mid sized multicell pannel was a good choice.

and if your worried about it getting scratched, you can put a very thin piece of vinyl on top (often sold at the wallymart for a few bucks for a whole yard) that will cut output about 5-8% and makes it impervious.

the one i got speced out correctally, the array in there doesnt waste a lot of space , like some arrays with too much gap between cell items.

I put this one on top of a GPS device with an acrylic hinge, and connected a diode and a protection curcuit to use it to charge a oversized battery in the unit. it now forms 3 functions.

1) charges the unit. if it sits inside on the window sil and catches a bit of light, the unit is now self sustaining for minor use. If i put it outside it could fully charge the FAT oversized 5amp li-poly cell in 2 days of brutal california sun. If i go walking with it in the sun, it runs the gps unit non-stop forever :-)

the hinge allows it to be aimed into the sun, and to shade the battery/unit.

2) caps the screen, via the hinge when i close the unit up it is now the top cap covering the screen. not the most durable cover i could put over the screen , but the most funtional one :-)

3) Is a Sun hood , or shade, so when gpsing in the sun it keeps the unit charged and the sun off the unit at the same time.

connections on these were at the "ends" of course to get power off the cell items, and the back of the PCB there is foil traces bringing the power to the Center of the pannel for a good location for connection.

probably be good for solar charger , and solar car projects and lots of other stuff you can think of.

lightweight, still good quality glass cell items, assembled at the voltage as speced.

that about covers it. It did not dissapoint.

Schumacher SE-4020 10/40/200-AMP Wheel-Style Charger/Starter

Schumacher SE-4020 10/40/200-AMP Wheel-Style Charger/StarterIve had this a couple of years and it really hasn't measured up. It can charge quickly but not fast, has no over charge protection, most of the parts are on the low end (ie wheels, handle, cables, clamps). It seems to be twice as large as it needs to be. But the 2 biggest issues with this is the poor performance of the 200-amp start and the cables literally melting every time you use it. I have used this 15 20 times over 2 years and the cables have ROTTED off. First the cable insulation would melt and smoke when I used the 40 or 200 amp settings, then, when I could see the wire I realized it was corroded and soon broke. Its obvious the cables were the cheapest they could get away with and thats just dangerous. It makes me question whats inside. I wouldn't mind all the trim being low end but when you cut corners with the core product thats just not safe.

I have been trying to locate from Amazon.com a charger that would individually charge Trojan 105 Batteries used for Golf Carts. The description said the SE4020 would do this but when I tried to charge a six volt deep cell battery it did not do the job. The clamps are not heavy enough to clamp heavy duty batteries, nor are the wires. I believe the wires should be a heavier guage to prevent over heating. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because of the reason specified above. Also I really think Schumacher should have used a more heavier metal in the construction of this charger. The edges of the charger on the bottom are very sharp and could cut you easily if you are not very careful. The wheels are also what you would find on a toy doll carriage, not a good quality battery charger. As for being a charger for all other types of batteries this charger would probably do the job it as designed. Just cheaply constructed!

i use the charger all the time..works great and its pretty tough..it gets knocked around all scratched up forgotten outside in the rain and snow..keeps on workin !!the 200 amp will start stone dead car...the trickle charge will bring a battery back from the dead{depends on the battery's condition}...what else could you ask for ???

I work on old classic cars at home and most of my life. This charger is great for the guy at home that needs good instant starting power quickly. It will also charge 6 volt batterys. The instant 12 volt start system on the unit works great. Unit is not professional quality but works absolutly great for home use. It could be used in a professional shop but every day use would shorten it life span. If you want a nice item to add to your home shop that will not let you down this is the one and priced well.

Want Schumacher SE-4020 10/40/200-AMP Wheel-Style Charger/Starter Discount?

I received this Schumacher SE-4020 BATTERY CHARGER today, first of all let me say it was packed real good and no damage and I received it in a timely manner. Now having said that there are some things I was not too happy with and somewhat disappointed. First of all a reviewer before I ordered this said in his review that he felt the battery leads and clamps were not heavy enough, I TOTAL AGREE WITH HIS ACCESSMENT COMPLETELY, they may work but pretty light duty in my opinion too! They wire is pretty light guage and the clamps are not too empressive, somewhat chincy if that's a word!! Secondly the screws for the clamps that hold the axle to the bottom were way too small for the pilot holes that were pre-drilled and they would not tighten up, now I have to get larger ones it appears and that sucks. Thirdly the self tapping screws for the handle, the Chinese needs to have someone show them what a self tapping screw is, the attempt was made to make them that way but NO CIGAR! And those little drive on caps that hold the wheels on the axle, THEY DO SUCK OUT LOUD FOR SURE! The wheels themself are pretty generic as well. All in all I haven't used it yet and it may work fine, definently a good looking battery charger but not too empressed with the thought or better yet VERY LITTLE THOUGHT for the screws, clamps or guage wire used or the rest of the hardware, by the way the 110 volt wire for the plug-in is heavier than the battery clamp wires, go figure if the clamp wires had of even been as heavy wouldn't have been as bad! Just being real and upfront here, again nice looking battery charger but there needs to be some attention paid to detail items. Just maybe if it wasn't such a hassle I would send it back, again have not used it yet so we'll see first, but NOT a real happy customer on this purchase!!! More than likely will keep it if it WORKS!

This is my personal opnion and now at least you have the truth as I see it, and rest of the story. Maybe in somes eyes I am too picky too much but truth is the truth in my mind! I do think it is a good looking charge so gave it the benifit of the doubt on 3 stars, did think about 2 but darn good looking charger, lets hope it works when I need it!

Thanks for reading my novel, guess you get what you pay for and this wasn't a fortune by no means.

Blackberry ASY-18083-001 In-Vehicle Charger, 12V, Micro-USB, Black-Car Charger-Non-Retail Packaging

Blackberry ASY-18083-001 In-Vehicle Charger, 12V, Micro-USB, Black-Car Charger-Non-Retail Packaging-BlackNot too long ago the global consortium that makes standards for cell phones decided that all cell phones would have micro usb connectors as a standard. Simply put, whether its a blackberry, a smartphone, or any other cell phone (iPhones excluded) will require this type of cable to connect to your pc/mac for charging and or synchronizing.

These particular car chargers are not cheap knock offs but original equipment from the manufacturer. In other words they are genuine blackberry parts and work perfectly fine for Blackberry 8900's and Storms both of which now sport the new micro usb connector.

5/5

This is original blackberry equipment and quite a bit cheaper than the $30 price tag charged by Verizon wireless, which is a total rip-off. This has the blackberry name on it and works like a charm. I highly recommend this item.

Buy Blackberry ASY-18083-001 In-Vehicle Charger, 12V, Micro-USB, Black-Car Charger-Non-Retail Packaging Now

I recently bought a BlackBerry Tour at the Verizon store, and because I was taking a trip in a few days, I bought the car charger even though I knew it was overpriced at thirty dollars.

However, after I returned, I bought this product for another car at a fraction of the cost for what I paid for the first charger. It works just as well.

Bottom line: Unless you need a car charger immediately, buy this product rather than the car charger sold at the phone store. For much less money you get the exact same performance.

Update September 28, 2010: Just bought this elsewhere on Amazon for $7.00 with no shipping charge for Prime members.

I recently ordered this item for my new Blackberry Storm. As the other reviews mention, this is a genuine Blackberry accessory...not some cheap knock-off product. It does come packaged in a plain plastic bag, instead of the clam shell packaging that you would typically see in a store. That doesn't bother me at all, but it wouldn't be a good presentation if you bought it as a gift for another person.

UPDATE: September 2012

It's officially dead. I plugged it in and the light turns on only for a few seconds then stops and it will not charge the phone at all. I'm surprised it lasted this long, but it really shouldn't die after two years.

--------

I thought "by Blackberry" in the description meant this would be an OEM item made by BlackBerry. Turns out this one is a cheap knockoff. It still charges, but I was looking for OEM. If you want one actually made by Blackberry, check out: BlackBerry Original Car Charger for BlackBerry Pearl 8220, Gemini 8520, Curve 8900, Storm2 9520, Storm 9530,Tour 9630, Bold 9700

Note the only difference is the word "Original" in the product name. Shame on you amazon... or Wireless Central... whoever is to blame.

Kawasaki 840110 Black 19.2-Volt Drill Kit

Kawasaki 840110 Black 19.2-Volt Drill KitPrice is attractive but you will remember the poor quality long after the low price is forgotten. Drill is made by AllTrade. Drill head on the drill I received for Christmas was not properly aligned, so the bit wobbles with every turn of the drill head. I sent it back to AllTrade for correction while under warranty with a thorough description of the problem but the drill came back in the same condition in which I sent it. Wish I had simply returned it.

If your buying this to be a work horse I probably wouldn't bother, but if your a home handy man who needs a nice cheaply priced drill this is it. I've been in the construction business for over 30 yrs and have always bought heavy duty drills. My drills still work good but having to spend big dollars on a battery just dosn't make sense to me any more. I bought this drill at Christmas and have used it on and off for the last three months. So far it has plenty of power and is a buy for the money. The bits that came with are also pretty good in quality. So for a forty dollar drill I say go for it.

Buy Kawasaki 840110 Black 19.2-Volt Drill Kit Now

I picked one of these up in a local warehouse club last year, around $40, and used it fairly extensively for a couple of months to install wood floors. It was a compact and well balanced unit, and I liked the way it felt in the hand. Plenty of power for a basic drill/driver, and good battery life.

But after about three months, the switch burned out, and it would no longer work. I dissected it to see if I could fix it, but the switch was shot. I have been unable to find a parts supplier online or otherwise. Kawasaki's sites do not even acknowledge that they make such a product, so I suspect it is manufactured in China and imported under the K label. The reviewer below indicates it is made by AllTrade, but their website says send it back to them, and does not list the replacement parts for sale. Shipping and repair costs will likely be more than the unit originally cost.

It was a nice unit while it lasted, and I may be able to resurrect it with a homemade switch (sacrificing variable speed control).

But based on my experience, I would recommend you spend a little more to get one from a reputable tool manufacturer that stands behind its products.

Read Best Reviews of Kawasaki 840110 Black 19.2-Volt Drill Kit Here

While it's true that there was a recall on the batteries, it looks like the folks that had trouble with the batteries only being good for 10 to 15 holes did the following: "Put the battery in the charger, and let it sit there." What happens is that a green LED comes on and one would think it's charging. That's not the case. One actually has to push a (flat to the surface) button to initiate charging. So you push the button and a RED light comes on and stays on until the battery is charged. At which point the green light comes on indicating a charged battery.

I must admit I didn't read the manual and thus was running the drill 'for two months' without actually charging it. I only thought I was charging it. That's two months of use on just the battery come-back! That was over two years ago and now that I'm actually charging it the drill has more than enough power and longevity to spare.

Really, the only bad thing I have to say about the drill is that the two spring clip retainers for the drill bits wear out after extended use. But I was always weary about keeping bits there anyway, although I did.

The reason I'm looking at this drill on Amazon is that I was thinking about getting another one, because it's just handy to not having to change the bit all the time from a drill bit to a driving bit.

I am, and have been, happy with the drill and it's an excellent value for the p;rice. If you don't need a corded, heavy duty drill then this Kawasaki will do the job for you.

Wireless Technologies Premium Vehicle Power Charger for Nokia 6101, 6102, 3155

Wireless Technologies Premium Vehicle Power Charger for Nokia 6101, 6102, 3155I bought 2 of these, and one of them stopped working after 2 months for no apparent reason. The light still comes on, but it does not charge the phone. Another annoyance is that it needs to be firmy and almost forcefully pushed into the cigarette lighter adapter. The slightest movement can loosen it, and you won't know until you find later that your phone is not charged. Like many other cell phone accessories, with this one you get what you pay for when you go with generic non-OEM products.

I've been able to replace all my different adapters for Europe, Asia and Middle East with just this one. It's a little pricey but well worth the money.

I cannot bear to be without my USB charger/adapter when I leave for any trips. Even if it's a domestic trip, the travel adapter, along with USB attachments for conversion, are incredibly useful so that I don't have to pack a ton of extra chargers in my luggage. For instance, I can charge my phone and camera at the same time and not have to worry about bringing their separate chargers, just need the adapters so that they fit the USB on these chargers. I bought this on the plane, where it was certainly more expensive than it is here on Amazon so I would highly suggsest planning ahead to have this on you through an online order before your next trip. That way you can also save some money without having to buy at the duty free shops!

I have a large bag full of plug adapters one trip Philippines, next Australia and Papua New Guinea, off to the UK, then Europe. What a pain! But this Skross adapter travels with me and it does the job nearly everywhere (I still need a grounded US three pin to two US blade adapter but I do not use grounded US three pin cords when I am mobile.) To boot, I add the end cap and now I have two USB 5 volt power sources, ideal for my Samsung mobile, Kindle, etc. All in one small bundle all pins extensible / retractable. What a great idea!

Updated in June 2013: I don't use this any longer, because I ow prefer the relatively newly available dual USB adapter one can also plug A/C power plugs into without having to disassemble the unit and make a choice of what to use Tripshell WORLD TRAVEL ADAPTER Built-in Dual USB Chargerb by elago design for $24.99 here on Amazon.

Bought one of each this model and one of the standard models without USB from Shoreline Warehouse, nice product, great customer service.

Why spend the extra money for the same product.

Would not hesitate to buy from them again.

Purchased Garmin nüvi 260W GPS, this product was listed under 'Frequently Bought Together' items. It was inexpensive, in fact, shipping was more than the item itself. I purchased the AC wall charger and when I received my GPS I attempted to use it to initially charge the GPS. Not only would the Garmin NOT charge, it functioned like it kept getting reset, like it was caught in a loop. Once I placed the Garmin inside my vehicle with the car charger it worked exactly like it should have, so I know the problem was the AC charger. The AC charger price was not worth going thru the expense or hassle or returning it, so I threw it in the trash. Hopefully this review will save others a couple of bucks.

This charger did not work on the Garmin NUV 255. It was a total waste of money. The box it came in didn't even say it was for a GPS. It only said cell phone and MP3 player on the box. It was a complete false advertisement. Don't purchade this for a GPs system.

The first time I used this product it failed. I charged up my GPS then disconnected the plug from the back of GPS and only half of the plug end came out of my gps. I had to remove the rest of the plug end with pliers.

I bought one of these at discounted price off Amazon about a year ago and it worked until the plug-in pins to the Garmin broke. So I checked back at Amazon and despite the bad reviews I ordered two more for my Garmin 255W with free shipping that ran a little under five bucks total. I mean, at that price, no big loss. And I also ordered another one for around $15 just to be sure I received one that worked. I should have saved the extra 15 bucks because when I received my order both of the ones I ordered for $2.47 each work just fine with my Garmin 255W. And the $15 one I ordered also worked just fine. So...at this $2.47 with free shipping you might want try one of these, or not, but the ones I received do charge my Garmin 255W GPS just fine.

Schumacher XC12 SpeedCharge 12 Amp Battery Charger

Schumacher XC12 SpeedCharge 12 Amp Battery ChargerSo I bought this because 1) it could do 6V and 12V and 2) it had a digital display for voltage and percent charge. It chooses automatically between 6 and 12V fine. The display however, seems quite off. The voltage is ~0.2V off vs a multimeter, but to be fair the resolution is only 0.1V so its hard to say exactly how off it is. The percent charge, which I was most interested in, appears way off. I had a 6V motorcycle battery that sat all winter, read ~3.5V before charging. I hooked it up, on the slow trickle charge setting recommended for small batteries, and it read 90% state of charge to begin. The SOC rose quickly to the high 90's, where it sat for quite awhile until fully charged. I understand there are a lot of battery types and sizes out there, so this may be hard to calculate, but I thought everyone should have a proper expectation about it. I like to monitor this type of information, which is why I elected for this model with SOC display (I didn't really need the 12A). Now I wish I would've just went with a more basic model.

Other Good:

It does kick out automatically to a maintenance mode once fully charged, and automatically start charging after a power loss.

Other Bad:

The fan is loud, and there is no on/off switch (you must unplug it). Also, while charging, the display switches between the SOC and the voltage setting(6 or 12). It would be more helpful to see an actual real-time voltage instead of what setting it is on. To check voltage status with the unit, you must abort charging and put into testing mode, then go back to charging.

fairly fragile construction. but worst thing was that it failed to charge at the 2 amp setting after only a few days.

This charger is fully automatic and will charge and maintain all types of 12 volt batteries. It also has a small footprint to fit into tight spaces. The only con is that it is rather noisy at times.

Sunforce 50032 15 Watt Solar Battery Charger

Sunforce 50032 15 Watt Solar Battery ChargerI purchased 6 of these for a backup system for my home. Two Northern units and 4 Sunforce units all 15 watt. ( these are the exact same units btw, northern's are cheaper). With two inverters, a 2500 watt, and a 300 watt pure sinewave for computers and such. Hooked through a 7 amp charge controller to a pair of 110 amp hour deep cells in parallel for a total of 220 amp hr's.

I first hooked two panels up to see how they did, they worked well in very low light but couldn't ever get the batteries to "full" on the controller. I then hooked up a third panel and that gave enough to bring the batteries to full after a full day. With six panels hooked up, it will bring the batteries to "full" in a very few hours from a 30% drained condition.

These units are less then optimally placed and rarely get full sun, but do very well even without that. Two panels in full sun may very well have been able to bring the batteries to "full" but location is a problem for me. One other product of note is the P3 international "Kill A Watt" electrical useage meter. Doing a survey of electrical useage in my house to get ready for this project was an eye opener to say the least.

Great panels, at a good price, that do what you pay for...all you can ask for.

No problems with delivery (of two panels). Worked right out of the box, getting great wattage out of it. Only nit is I would have preferred a seperate power cable, vs. attached.

Mounting holes made it easy to build a PVC stand.

Haven't found another panel with these specs at this price.

I put this on top of a metal storage container with 3 LED lights inside. I put in a controller and a 12 volt deep cyle battery, and I have lots of light.

Just for grins I put in a 400 watt inverter in case anyone wanted to run a battery charger for a DeWalt cordless drill. Great job site problem solver.

Got mine undamaged from northerntool for $92.40 (with shipping and tax). A quick DVM reading (laid out flat on ground in full sun at 2PM June 19th 2007 in Minnesota): 21 volts and 0.8 amps = 16.8 watts. Now $92.40 for 16.8 watts works out to $5.50/watt, which is a very competitive price these days (note that they only warranty up to 80% of rated output). I plan to use this to drive a 12V fountain pump. According to the specsheet, "Yes, this panel is fully weatherproofed." Nevertheless, I wish it came with a plastic hail guard, as the glass feels delicate. Looks like the same product as the Sunforce 50032.

It arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It produced the rated open circuit voltage and short circuit current in full sunshine per the specifications. It was a good buy, very good for maintaining a battery, but you must use a charge controller. You need several along with a charge controller if you intend to produce enough power for useful work. I use 5 (similar) together with a 100 amp/hour marine battery to power my laptop. I'd like to add a few more! Great for the hobbyist who wants to play with solar without a large expense, also useful for low power off grid applications. It has been outside during several large rainstorms and had no problems.
