Instapark® NEW All Black 130W Mono-crystalline Solar Panel, 130 watt

Instapark® NEW All Black 130W Mono-crystalline Solar Panel, 130 wattNOTICE: THIS IS NOT THE SAME PRODUCT I PURCHASED. THIS REVIEW BELONGS TO THE WHITE PANEL

Panel was received and appears to be as promised. My biggest concern is lifespan/warranty. Is it worth saving $60 (delivered price)with an unknown warranty, or better to spend the extra money on a good Kyocera panel with a 20 year warranty? Stay tuned updates will follow in 6 months or if the panel fails.

Update Instapark raised their price since my purchase, and the price on Kyocera panels has come down. Considering there is no warranty information provided from Instapark (supposedly there is a two year warranty but how do you return and how comprehensive is it?), and the lack of history of the company, I cannot recommend this product. This is true especially since you can buy a known brand, made in the US, with an extensive warranty and good service record for almost the same price.

The product itself appears to be operating just fine so far, but where is the support if you need it?

Update after 6 mos: The unit performed well over the summer. No signs of damage from the salt water. So I upgraded my rating to 4 stars. However, doing it over again I still would by a Kyocera panel for the piece of mind that a good warranty would give me and to buy a comparably priced American product.

Installed 4 130 watt panels.

No instructions.

No Warrentee.

Pkging was pretty good, lots of protection inside box.

Frame is well made.

Glass seems of heavy weight.

J-Box seems well made, #12 AWG wire with MC4 connectors, good construction, nice seal.

Silicon on back in every nook and cranny.

Will see how long they last, they do feel like good quality panels.

Panel operates as discribed on label on back of panel.

Hope this helps...

Buy Instapark® NEW All Black 130W Mono-crystalline Solar Panel, 130 watt Now

I have bought a half dozen of these panels over the past eight months. The quality seems to be as good as most other panels I have looked at and the price is fair. What impressed me was how well they work. They easily put out the rated power on sunny days and even on cloudy days they still work reasonably well. I am using them as an off grid backup power supply. I want to end this project with a total of twelve panels before the end of the year. The only thing that concerned me was the lack any mention of a warranty. Still, I would recommend these panels. They are working great for me.

I added this panel to my existing system which consists of a hydro-turbine(makes the majority of our power 24 hrs a day, 364 days a year -one down for a rebuild), generators, 6 KW Trace, & everything else.

So far after a handful of days of use, I am relatively pleased. Around the 46th parallel in the full sun of early September, I'm getting as much as 85 watts/panel before a miniscule amount of line loss.

As I've stated in their feedback, these guys seem to have great customer service. Before the product arrived I had a concern that they addressed almost immediately.

Want Instapark® NEW All Black 130W Mono-crystalline Solar Panel, 130 watt Discount?

I ordered three of these Instapark 130 Watt panels to supply power to a trailer because 120 VAC is only available using a generator. So far, I have only connected one panel to a SunSaver solar controller just to keep the (old crummy 12V) trailer battery charged. I will wait until warmer weather to connect the other two panels and get two new 6V deep cycle batteries and a true-sine inverter at that time. I have tested all three panels and the two I haven't used yet tested okay on my volt meter, so I think they are okay. According to my solar controller readout, I was cranking over 9 amps out of the one panel at a little over 14 volts. I was getting the full 130 Watts out of this panel on a sunny day! That's great! I read about another brand of panel rated at 100 W that people were only able to get about 80 W out of. I am very pleased that this panel, rated at 130 W, was able to produce the full 130 W at a voltage that could charge the battery and/or run 12V equipment. I think these panels are excellent values and would definitely buy more from Instapark.

Peak PKC0TN 2.5 Million Candle Power Spotlight

Peak PKC0TN 2.5 Million Candle Power SpotlightSeems nice enough and the DC recharger works fine. Haven't had it on long, so I'm not sure how long the battery will last. Didn't need a recharge until I got home when I used it for 9 days over deer hunting season. I don't believe it should be rated at 2.5 million candle power though. Spotlights I used in the past for deer shining that were rated less where actually as bright or brighter. Especially the 1 million candle power unit I used many years ago.

Very bright and a wonderful idea not to need a charger, any extension chord will work to charge. The only con is it does not hold a charge for long.

Buy Peak PKC0TN 2.5 Million Candle Power Spotlight Now

It takes forever to charge and you can't use it while its charging. It would be nice if you could use it while it is charging at least 12 volt. And it is kind of old school as far as the bulb is concerned because it has a dark spot in the middle of the light.

I use this spotlight as a volunteer for the red cross disaster action team. The throw on the spotlight allows us to light up addresses from the van. The throw also allows us to see streetlights far enough in advance. There isn't much lighting in Detroit streets, so this light comes in handy finding houses. Especially after a house fire, there is usually no lights in the house. This allows us to do an assessment on the house with no problems!

Kenwood DDX512 6.1-Inch-Wide In-Dash Monitor with USB/iPod Direct Control/DVD Receiver

Buy Kenwood DDX512 6.1-Inch-Wide In-Dash Monitor with USB/iPod Direct Control/DVD Receiver Now

this is a great all around unit

i had to upgrade after my stock headunit took a dump and couldn't be happier with my choice

the earlier complaints about this deck have now been solved and all you have to do is visit kenwoods website to get the latest updates installed (Real easy) and if your using a rear sub via the sub out connection you will have to contact kennwoods customer support # to get them to walk you thur the process.

btw calling and getting a kenwood tech is REAL easy and they are more then happy to help you. i called 3 times about different questions and got the answers every time, with little to no waiting on hold. (thank you kenwood)

the deck is fully upgradeable down the road so if you decide to add navi, satellite radio, bluetooth or hd radio ect. your covered no problem.

if your wanting to use your ipod or iphone with the new update and the use of KENWOODs KCA-IP301V cable you will be able to control your ipod thru the deck seamlessly

i am currently able to control my iphone 3g with no problems. (Video music podcasts .ect)

so if your looking for the basics with the option to upgrade you'd be goofy not to seriously consider the DDX-512

Purchased as a replacement for factory DD radio, great head unitIt can be upgraded to all the stuff you exactly want. It plays DVDs, no issues viewing, great sound quality with the Alpine components, Have the navigation love it to just wish you could here the radio but I guess if you need directions your focuse should be there not the music, Radio is as weak as the factory radio so no change there but good news you can always upgrade to sat. or HD radioso for the price its a great head unit with even greater potential with all the upgrades you could ever want.

Easy installtook about 15 minutes, the nav unit took longer due to running/ hiding the wires, but all turned out seemless.

Want Kenwood DDX512 6.1-Inch-Wide In-Dash Monitor with USB/iPod Direct Control/DVD Receiver Discount?

This is a good item for the price. it plays DVD's, CD's, musis and TV shows that are on your iPod. Once you get it hooked up it works great. My reason for only giving it 3 stars is the lack of information available regarding extra equipment to make it work properly. This information is not available on Kenwoods web site or Amazons product description or any other web sit I searched.

1. You will most likely need an antana adaptor. Depenting on what type of vehicle you have this could be as much as $50.00. Luckily for my GMC Sierra it was only $10.00.

2. In order to hook up your iPod you need another adaptor cable which was about $40.00. Additionally, this will not work on all iPods. I have an iPod touch which works great with this stereo. I also have an origional iPod classic that does not work even with the upgrades available on apple's web site. I took my older iPod to a local stereo store to seek help and they told me that it is simply "too old to work with this stereo". The product description for this stereo says it works with all iPods version 1.2 or newer and I have found this to be false.

3. Mounting HardwareUnless you are replacing an existing aftermarket double din deck you will also need a dash kit. The installation hardware that comes with the unit is useless for a GMC sierra. Add another $20.00.

4. This deck does not come with a remote control. This is not deceptive as the product description does not state that there is a remote included. However some movies will not play without the comand from a remote. Another $30.00.

5. If you want to maintain your door chimes and factory computer functions of your particular vehicle, you need an additional unit that plugs inline with your factory wiring harness before pluging into the deck. For a GMC Sierra this was another $189.00. You don't NEED this to make the deck work but again, not mentioned in the product description, anywhere.

Enough bashing on this unit as it does have a couple of unexpected useful features.

1. It clearly states in the instruction manual that you cannot play video from your iPod on this unit. That is not true. I watch movies, TV shows and any other type of video from my iPod touch without any problem.

2. The installation manual wants you to install this unit so that it won't play video while you are driving. This can be easily over riden by grounding the wire on that back of the deck that they want you to connect to your park brake.

Hope this is helpful because none of this information was available to me before I purchased this unit. But now that I have it hooked up, and over $250.00 additional dollars later I love this unit!!!

I just purchased this unit upgrading from my old kenwood head unit. I found out the hard way that there is some serious issues with this unit.

1. The unit is "Satellite XM/Sirius" Ready, but Kenwood has not released the cables needed to connected the unit to the Sirius unit. So basically if you buy this unit to listen to Satellite radio, you are out of luck until Kenwood releases the proper cable. I called Kenwood Usa support about this and they can't give a reason why the cables are not available, but said they should be available by April 2008. In the meantime I can't listen to my Sirius.

2. The unit claims to be able to play MP3, JPEG photos, and MPEG videos from a USB device (ext USB hard drive or thumb drive). I bought a external USB hard drive and it was able to play MP3s from it but no JPEG and no videos. I emailed Kenwood USA about this and they responded with this:

"The DNX-5120 and DDX-512 are currently unable to play MPEGs or JPEGs via USB. We are aware of this issue and currently working on a fix to solve the problem. When the fix is available, we will contact and email you the update."

So now I can't play my Satellite radio or play JPEG and Mpeg videos from my USB device! But there is more:

This is supposed to also have bluetooth with the optional BT-200 bluetooth unit. I called Kenwood and the Bluetooth add on will not be available until May 2008 according to Kenwood USA.

So I can't use my Bluetooth, Satellite Radio, or JPEG, MPEG files!

So basically if you are going to buy this unit, wait until May when they are supposedly going to have everything available. I am not a happy customer!

Cobra Walkie-Talkie microTalk CXT90 18-Mile 22-Channel Two-Way Radio (Black, Pair)

Cobra Walkie-Talkie microTalk CXT90 18-Mile 22-Channel Two-Way Radio
  • 18-mile range, 22 channels, and 121 privacy codes
  • Hands-free operation (VOX)
  • 8 rechargeable AAA batteries and a "Y" wall charger included
  • Maximum range extender and belt clip included for maximum efficiency and carrying ease
  • Lead-free packaging

I gave these walkie-talkies to my son for his birthday. He and I don't read instructions. Regardless, we figured out how to operate them totally in less than 10 minutes! These are small enough to hold in the hand, easily operate the calling, talk, listen, channel features. We didn't test the, I think, 20 mile limit, but at one block it was fully clear. It comes with a recharger that recharges both units at the same time. While this is great fun for my children and me, it's perfect for adults. With unlimited cell phone calling now available I'm not sure that cell phones aren't even more useful, albeit more costly. I highly recommend these walkie-talkies and I give them a solid, "A".

Buy Cobra Walkie-Talkie microTalk CXT90 18-Mile 22-Channel Two-Way Radio (Black, Pair) Now

Purchased these walkie talkies for a cross country trip. We used them to communicate between two cars on a trip lasting 4 days from Oregon to Arkansas. The batteries lasted a reasonable length of time and the sound quality was great. Did encountered other people on the channel we were using, but it was no problem to switch to another channel. Cannot comment on the maximum range since we were never more than a mile apart. This turned out to be a great buy and do recommend this product, particularly for the way we used them.

Read Best Reviews of Cobra Walkie-Talkie microTalk CXT90 18-Mile 22-Channel Two-Way Radio (Black, Pair) Here

While these radios came highly recommended, and they do indeed work as advertised, I cannot seem to get the batteries recharged. The first problem is that the radio's display does not indicate if the batteries are charging or when they are fully charged. I emailed Cobra about the problem. Their recommendation was this: The radios should be 'OFF' while charging. The initial charge is 15 hours. Once fully charged you can keep them off of the charger during the day, charge back at night. You can use any other rechargeable battery, just score about 1/4 inch from of the plastic to expose the silver part of the batteries. Take a look at the batteries your radios came with. You need to have the other batteries look similar as far as the silver part of the battery showing at the bottom so you will need to remove some of the plastic from the battery.

I have followed the recommendations, and the batteries do not charge. I have sent Cobra another email, and I am going to try some Energizer batteries to see if they work. I don't mind working through a problem with a company, and Cobra has been very friendly and helpful. However, it seems to me the lower end priced Cobra's are going to have problems based on other Amazon reviews.

I got these to use when i paintball and they are amazing they work in the snow and they are just awesome to use for car trips also and i give one to my little cousin when he walks home and i know he's safe that way

I purchased these walkie talkies, for use at Wal Mart while shopping, so I could find my wife at times, works good, also use them to carry with me when I walk the dog, and they do fine then too. I haven't used these walkie's over a mile yet and they work fine, don't really know how much distance you could get from them, but I live in a mountainous region and lots of hills, so, probably couldn't get much distance , but works fine for me.

Premium 1000mAh Micro USB Retractable Car Charger for LG Optimus G LS970 Eclipse 4G

Premium 1000mAh Micro USB Retractable Car Charger for LG Optimus G LS970 Eclipse 4GI would recommend this product, but don't expect it to fully charge your phone! It's not the charger, it's how most smart phones charge in cars; they require a lot of power to full charge.

It works well, but the little red light doesn't always turn on even though it is charging. Not a big deal, just be sure to check on your phone before you think it's not working.

Cobra MicroTalk CXT125 16-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GRMS Two-Way Radio

Cobra MicroTalk CXT125 16-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GRMS Two-Way Radio
  • 16 Mile Range
  • 22 Channels
  • 6 Rechargeable AAA batteries and "Y" wall charger included
  • Belt Clip included for easy carrying
  • Lead-Free Packaging

I bought the 2-way radio for our cruise we took. I bought it after reading about similar cobra products and liked the fact that batteries were rechargeable. After the initial charge the 2-way radio worked fine. We could communicate on the ship with each other to find where the other was, the voice was clear and crisp. One draw back was not having sub-channels on this product, as a result we could hear other conversations from other users. Even though the feature lists 16 mile range, I would say the maximum range was about 1 to 1.5 miles on an island without any major obstacles. The initial charge lasted a while but when the initial charge was gone, one of the radios would not recharge again and after a while the other failed to recharge. I tried charging for over 2 days but still no luck. I don't know where the failure was, whether it was the charger or the batteries themselves. I really like these radios but were useless without recharge so I ended up in returning to Amazon.

I bought this set of two walkies at Walmart for $24 and was attracted to the small size, simple design, and rechargeable batteries. I had intended to give them to my kids so when they hike about on our 25 acres of upstate forest, I can keep in touch with them. 16 miles under ideal conditions and 1 mile in the city according to the back panel. From the front lawn of our suburban home, without more than a few trees blocking, the signal faded after 1500 feet. By a mile, mostly static and largely inaudible. I would suggest that at $24, they are a great toy and within 1000ft, certainly as clear as a bell. Don't rely on them for anything over a mile especially if staying in contact is critical.

Stanley BC209 Battery Maintainer

Stanley BC209 Battery MaintainerI am using this as a battery maintainer. Seems to work fine. It is a higher quality case and wiring than the Schumacher units I had used in the past. These are a buy again.

This appears to me to be the same BC209 as the more expensive all yellow version. This one is advertised as a maintainer but the directions and box refer to it as a maintainer/charger just like the yellow version. The paperwork is dated 2011 so it is a up to date model. I bought this to maintain my starting battery in my motor home while in storage which is most of the time. The "house" charger in the motor home only maintains the house battery (not the starting battery)so I was going through starting batteries way too fast from lack of use. The charger does exactly what I wanted which is slow charge then maintain the battery level. The included plug adapters are all nice quality. I chose to use the cigarette lighter adapter and it works great. The light indicates when it is charging and when it is charged. The unit runs without making any noise at all. I actually put my ear to the box and could barely hear a slight hum. From 1 inch away you can't hear a thing! Also there is no odor from the unit either. I could not be happier and highly recommend this product. Now when it is time to travel I can just start her up and go!

This charger works as good or better than chargers costing 5 times more. I bought 3 of them to use during the winter. Great value!

Read Best Reviews of Stanley BC209 Battery Maintainer Here

For anyone who has a vehicle which doesn't get much use, this is a must.

We have a valued, but seldom used vehicle which we would very often forget to start up and run. Hence, whenever we DID want to use it... dead battery and usually dead enough to need a new battery. It was getting silly and expensive. Finally, one honest battery salesman said, "buy a trickle charger" and we got this one. It is just what the doctor ordered. We still have to turn the engine over occasionally, of course, and keep the "juices" flowing, but no more dead battery and expensive replacements if we forget for a couple of months.

This is just a tiny little thing that has a magnet that attaches itself to the side of the car. You crack the window and feed a cord through to insert in the cigarette lighter slot. Attach an extension cord to the other end, plug it in the wall and it just does it's thing.

Love it!

The Stanley BC 209 Battery Maintainer is one of the worse battery maintainers that I have used/purchased. The charger gets extremely hot, has wide range in charging voltages (13-15V), and for me, stopped working after 6 months. The overall design is basic and feels cheap.

Rapid Car Charger w Smart Chip For HTC Droid Incredible

Rapid Car Charger w Smart Chip For HTC Droid IncredibleThis little device works as advertised, and it's a must-have for my HTC Incredible, with it's abysmal battery life. The only thing to be careful of: do not leave this plugged in to the dash port when the car is off! It will drain your battery, as it did mine.

Figured you can never have too many accessories so I purchased the kit. Comes with clamps, cable, eyelet connectors, and plug connector. These are high quality products and seems like they are gonna last forever. I put them in different cars (attached with the quick connect) for conveience. Good price for great quality!

I have the the G3500 and the G7200. This is a great kit to extend the reach of the chargers or if you want to hard wire a battery to the adapter, especially a hard to reach battery like in a boat or trailer. I use the kit a lot and it is of the same quality as other NOCO products. Highly recommended!

HQRP 12 Watt (6W + 6W) Solar Panel 12W Power 12V Monocrystalline 12 Volt PV Module w/ Solid Alumini

HQRP 12 Watt Solar Panel 12W Power 12V Monocrystalline 12 Volt PV Module w/ Solid Aluminium Frame DC Battery Charger RV Marine Yacht Boat 5 Years Limited Power WarrantyThese solar panels work as advertised. Test results in nominally full (Arizona) sunlight are: (panel #1) 17.80V at 0.303A, (panel 2) 17.65V at 0.301A. This is actually a little higher than the panel rating of 17.50V at 0.290A. Mechanically they are well constructed and sealed against moisture. Shipment from Osprey-Talon was very quick (same day) and the packaging was sufficient even though it was shipped in an envelope instead of a box (the panels are individually boxed and well protected).

The free "mouse pad", on the other hand, is pretty much a joke since it is only 6.75" in diameter. But it'll make a good coaster for my coffee cup, so I'm completely satisfied with this purchase.

Audiovox Car Charger for Audiovox CDM9100 Series Phones

Audiovox Car Charger for Audiovox CDM9100 Series PhonesBy the second time I used this piece of junk to charge my phone, it gave me an error message and would not work. Unfortunately, it was beyond 30 days so I'm stuck with it. Proceed with caution-and test it early and often. Hope I win the 50 bucks to make up for this bad purchase!

I have had this charger for about 3 months and it has worked perfectly. There's not mutch else to say other than that it does exactly what it is designed to do, which is charge my 9100 phone.

I don't know why this product has only 1 star. It has never failed to work well for me. In fact, I prefer to charge my phone in the car instead of at home. Though I no longer use this phone (I upgraded to a motorola a few months ago) I never once had a problem with the car charger.

One of the only 3 usb port, 2.5amp charger I could find. Works great for most my devices, but it won't charge my Asus Transformer Infinity TF700T (it won't charge through any USB port aside from the included wall plug), nor will it charge my brand new Samsung Galaxy S4. I tried using the included AC only cable adapter, and tested with a plethora of USB cables, including factory cables that came with said devices.
