YTX12-BS High Performance - Maintenance Free - Sealed AGM Motorcycle Battery
Great product!Quick delivery,great price,plenty of power--Only issue was pos & neg posts were opposite of battery I replaced,so that I had to put battery in "backwards" which made making connections more difficult---But it was worth it for the $100 or so that I saved over the dealer's price.

YTX4L-BS Power Sports Battery Replaces 4L-BS EXT14 GTX4L-BS CYTX4L-BS
We replaced it with this battery.
My dad checked the battery with a voltage meter when we recieved it.
He said, this is how I tell how the state of the battery charge condition was 12.3 volts.
A fully charged battery should be at least 12.78 volts.
Batteries below 12.5 volt usually need to be charged.
This battery needed to be charged .After more than 5 years, the original battery in my scooter died. Battery prices were all over the place. This one was well priced and the looked to be the exact fit. I believe there was a good return policy if it did not fit as well.
I arrived in a few days, fit perfect and had enough charge to start the scooter. I put it on a battery maintainer and have been using it since without problems. I believe to maintain any of this type of battery, it's best to keep them on a maintainer or top them off regularly. I was told that the scooter charging systems are minimal. Hopefully I will get another 3-5 years from this battery, like I did the first one (if I treat it well).

B.B. Battery 7.2 AH 12V SLA Battery BP Series
Buy B.B. Battery 7.2 AH 12V SLA Battery BP Series Now
I ordered this for a UPS under the impression that it would be the B.B. Battery so I wouldn't need to worry about the terminals being different. However I received a UB170 in its place which of course, has smaller terminals. Not a show stopper but annoying and not what I paid for. Also as others have stated it was shipped just in a bag.This company did contact me offering to ship the terminal adapters if I would remove this review. However, probably should have sent it with the battery in the first place if you are going to send something different than what was advertised.

Generac 5847 XG8000E 8,000 Watt 410cc OHV Gas Powered Portable Generator With Wheel Kit & Electric
Well, I'm glad I bought the Generac 5847! It shipped fast and was well packed in its carton. All parts and documentation were in the box as expected, and it was easy to install the wheels and fill it with oil and gas. Generac includes the oil, plus a maintenance kit including an extra oil filter, air filter, spark plug, plug wrench, and even a paper funnel and a couple of paper shop towels nice! You also get a trickle charger that you can plug into the wall to keep the generator battery topped up and ready to go (and of course when the generator is running, you can plug the charger into one of the 120v outlets on the generator). This thing is built tough, too the bright orange tube frame is seriously beefy, and the motor-generator combo is mounted on big rubber isolators. I also like that it has a proper spin-on oil filter, a feature missing from most portable generators.
I tugged the choke lever, pushed the start switch and VROOM the gennie fired right up! I also tried starting it using the pull cord and found that it started in one easy pull. Then I plugged in a couple of tools and lights just to test that the outlets were hot, and the generator didn't even notice. The noise level is about what I expected: it's a gas engine, after all, so it ain't silent, but it's on par with other generators I've heard, not to mention other gas-engine powered tools I have. And as usual for portable generators, this one is not weather-proof, so I'll be making a shed for it. I also plan to wire up a waterproof twist lock receptacle on the outside of my house and properly connect it into my house's load center no back-feeding through the clothes dryer receptacle for me!Generac has the worse attitude about customer service and support that I have ever encountered. The generator (once it is fixed and working) probably is a 4 or 5 like many others have rated it. Over all I give them a 2. If your generator works correctly on arrival (based on reviews most seem to), you will probably be very happy with it.
If you buy a Generac generator, you should be aware that Generac's response to warranty issues is dismally slow. Their written warranty does not cover needed adjustments, even if your new unit arrives out of adjustment. (The output of mine was only 100 volts on arrival.) If you do not have the means to get the 250+ pound unit to a repair dealer, Generac's warranty does not cover pickup and delivery of the unit. You cannot return it to Amazon once it has had gas in it, which I knew when I ordered it.
After three frustrating weeks of emails, phone calls and slow responses, I finally got Generac to cover the $80 repair cost and the $55 pickup and delivery charge. Their attitude was that according to their written warranty it was my responsibility to pay another $135 to get the defective product working the first time. A detailed time line follows, if you are interested...
02-January-2013
My brand new generator arrived on December 28. The shipping box was in perfect shape and there was no visible damage to the unit. I was able to test it for the first time over the weekend and found that it only delivered 100 volts and the frequency was only 58 Hz, with no load. As per instructions, I contacted Generac and was given the name of a service dealer. The service dealer was very nice but they require a deposit to look at the unit, which they will return when and if Generac approves the warranty repair. The service dealer warned me that it sometimes takes 4 weeks for Generac to authorize the repair.
I also have to get the 250+ pound unit to the service dealer or pay the service dealer to pick it up from my house and Generac will not cover the pickup charge under warranty.
I contacted Generac a second time and told them that this was not an acceptable solution for a purchase that was not working correctly upon arrival. The representative told me that none of the incident escalation people were available and that I could submit an incident form electronically. I've submitted an incident form to Generac. We'll see if they resolve this quickly. If so, I may raise my rating.
I cannot return it to Amazon since it has had oil and gas in it. Plus, I had to cut the shipping carton apart to put the wheels on and roll it out (far too heavy to lift). Checkout the return policy before you order.
Update 08-January-2013
Here is the response I received from Generac in response to the incident form I filed:
"Thank you for contacting Generac, my name is (removed) and I will be your case coordinator. I apologize for the failure of your generator, however Generac unfortunately cannot pre-approve a repair as the repairs needs to be diagnosed as a manufacturing defect in order to qualify for warranty coverage. In order for warranty to cover the repairs, the issue would need to first be diagnosed by a certified service dealer as a manufacturing defect. Not all service dealers require a deposit and if you would like to contact some additional dealers, I have included a list below. If the service dealer does request a deposit before working on the unit, that deposit should be returned if the issue is found to be a warrantable item. As for the travel expense, I apologize for the inconvenience, but the product warranty only covers parts and labor for the repair, with transportation being the responsibility of the consumer. Once again, I apologize for the failure you've experienced and if you have any questions, please feel free to email or call me back."
Basically it is my responsibility to get the DOA unit to a repair dealer. I do not think this is very good customer service for a generator that did not work correctly the first time it was started.
Update 24-January-2013
It has been almost a month since my generator was defective on arrival.
I managed to get Generac to agree to be responsible for the $55 fee for the service dealer to pickup and return my generator. The service dealer picked it up on January 14. They told me on the 18th that the repair should be under warranty and that they were waiting for Generac to respond. I contacted Generac on the 18th and was told that they were waiting for something from the dealer. The dealer gave me the claim numbers showing that Generac acknowledged receipt on the 17th. I do not understand what Generac needs from the dealer.
There was still no word from Generac as of yesterday, the 23rd. I emailed Generac yesterday and told them if I did not receive confirmation by today that my claim had been resolved I would submit a complaint to the Better Business Bureau.
I just do not understand how a company can be so slow to get a product that was defective on delivery fixed. Are they so backed up with warranty claims that it takes weeks to approve one after it is submitted by one of their recommended service dealers?
Update 25-January-2013
It got worse before it got better. My Generac Case Coordinator called me shortly after noon yesterday. He explained that the repair was just an adjustment to the governor that regulates the speed and that adjustments were not covered under the Generac warranty because they were not "manufacturing defects." He said that I should read their written warranty (wish I knew all of this before ordering). I explained that I would not accept this since the generator produced low voltage the first time I started it and as far as I was concerned it was a manufacturing defect since it never worked correctly. I asked to speak to a manager and he told me that he was a manager. I asked to speak to his supervisor and was told that he probably could not get back to me that day. After making it clear that I would be filing a Better Business Bureau complaint, if his supervisor did not contact me that day and agree that Generac would cover the repair, we ended the call.
The Case Coordinator called back about 20 minutes later and told me that Generac would pay the $80 for the repair plus the $55 for pickup and delivery of the generator. Hopefully the service dealer will be able to deliver it to my house today (they are really nice people but are a small operation).I bought the Generac XG8000E after experiencing two week long power outages this fall (Hurricane Irene and the freak Halloween snow storm). After waiting to get my transfer switch installed I finally decided to power up the Generac to test out the wiring and circuits. I was disappointed to find that the Generac was very difficult to start. I think the problem is there is no gas prime bulb. I put in only one gallon of gas at first and tried for an hour to start the thing. I disconnected the fuel line filter to see that gas was flowing pass the gas cutoff switch it checked out OK. Then I tried to pour gas into the fuel line still didn't start. Finally I emptied my 2.5 gal gas can into the Generac and then it started after several more attempts. So if you buy a Generac put lots of gas in the tank in order to use the gravity of the gas to help prime the carburetor. And hey Generac put a primer bulb on your gas line! And also put a sticker on the gas tank to tell owners to fill the gas tank when starting.I purchased this generator three years ago and couldn't be more satisfied with it. I had an electrician install a 100 amp transfer switch and now can easily power the entire house with this unit. With selected circuits on, I can run the generator for about two hours on one gallon of gas which is a wonderful feature. We lost power for five days on three occasions since purchasing this generator and having electricity makes investing in this worth every cent.
I noticed that with running two refrigerators, one freezer, lights, tv's, heat, and the computer, I was only using about 25% of this 8000 watt generator's capacity. I will run my central a/c with it should I lose power in the summer as well. We also bought this same unit for our son. I do start the generator and allow to run once every two weeks, and charge the battery overnight twice a month, to insure it will be ready for the next power outage.

White Retractable Micro USB Plug in Car Charger Lighter Socket DC Power Adapter for Straight Talk L
Powermate PM0106507 Vx Power Series 8,125 Watt 420cc Gas Powered Portable Generator With Electric S
On the Friday before Hurricane Sandy hit I finally agreed with my husband that we needed a generator. No stores in my local area had any stock (Since all the smart people had already purchased one and I live in NJ) so I logged into Amazon, spent some time on reviews and decided on this one. I must have hit the "buy" button about 10:30AM ish. By evening I recieved a shipped notice from Amazon with a delivery date of Tuesday. (please note that since I have prime, this item shippped 2 day and free) The generator actually arrived Monday afternoon, just as the storm was starting. So, it was in my house in ONE (yes 1) business day!!
All the comments are correct, the battery is a pain btw...
My husband put it together and we found that the electronic start does not work at the begining. (Don't fret, our theory is that it needs a slight charge to do it. It worked every time afterwards) It started on the first pull and chugged along assisting us through 13 days without power. Now, we did not run it all the time because of the gas shortages but the beast did a commendable job.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind.
1. you can't run it outside while it is raining. One of those snowball things. It never dawned on me that it would need its own house.
2. Its loud... no question about it. They all seem loud, so its not worrying to me.
3. Buy the oil for its first oil change now, do not wait till you are in the middle of a storm to try to find oil.
4. If you put it in the shed to run, make sure all the doors/windows are open, even if it is raining.
5. we found that it would run at a moderate load for about 12 hours.
6. It ran the freezer, fridge, husbands PC network (this is not just a computer) cable router, tv, dvd, playstation, kitchen and living room lights, while charging a plethera of electronic gadgets) without breaking a sweat. I even used it to run the washing machine a few times.First of all I do not make any major electrical purchases without reviewing all options for at least 2-3 weeks. I read reviews, shop for best prices & compare product features. I have used this generator 3 times so far and it is just as expected, It has performed admirably. All of the issues the other reviewers spoke of are minor but accurate. You should know that this thing is heavy and the battery needs to be connected. I can't think of a single problem so far and I've had this thing over a year. If I had to buy a generator all over again I would buy this one.I ordered this generator during a 5 day power outage, which was over by the time the generator came in. I went ahead and took delivery, not wanting to ever be caught without one again. As another reviewer noted, it's hard to connect the battery cable because of its location. The oil filler hole is hidden behind the trim panel and is hard to get to. Can't be seen at all unless you bend down and look up under the panel. Comes with a funnel and tubing which is necessary to add oil. Started right up with no problems. Have not had to use it yet, hope I never have to.Easy to unpack, clear instructions to install the wheels/legs.
A little difficult to connect the negative cable to the battery. No instructions on how to do it. Difficult until in frustration I loosened the battery so I could see the damn thing!
Oil required was a little more than a quart, again no amount given for the requirement. I added about 1 1/4 quarts, and it over flowed. Not a big deal, but wanted to do it right.
Started in 2 seconds. I used a halogen lamp and a fan to load the output (and blow the exhaust out of the garage) to run for awhile, nothing like the 6500W I expect out of it.
I am very satisfied with the product, I have another, smaller generator I'm happy with too just too small and I have to start it by hand. I think these smaller generators are built really well, seem to always work for me.
I hope I remember to keep this updated.
I'm happy now. Thanks Amazon.pulled generator out before sandy and made sure it was ready to run, fired it up, all was ok. It began running roughly after about 8 hours of operation despite using fresh gas, and then failed at 10 hours. Warranty service is nearly non-existant, i finally found a source in december about 15 miles from my home and it is still at the shop with no estimate of completion, not a really good experience with an expensive generator,

HQRP 85 Watt Solar Panel 85W Power (Size of 80 Watt / 80W) 12V Monocrystalline PV Module plus HQRP
Goods showed up, was installed and works as per the description.
There could have been more documentation included but I knew what I was doing so it was not a big problem.
I measured the outputs and found them to be very close to the specs (17volt/5amp).Recieved the solar panel as a gift. I had it mounted on my 2006 981 Lance Max Camper with dual batteries. This panel keeps my batteries in top condition and fully charged by evening. Great product. Plan on buying another one to hook up in series on my camper for extended dry camping.Made custom mounting hardware for this panel. It was easy to install and I saw a peak amp output of 4.8 Email me of a picture!I've copied my review of this panel and a charge controller combo (HQRP Solar Power Controller 10Amp 150W with Digital LED Display) since my review contains details for both products and might be useful to others.
I purchased a relatively large Jayco camping trailer (Pop-up) this year and wanted to be able to dry camp for a week at a time and not need to haul along a generator or be overly worried about conserving electricity. After doing the math I upgraded the stock group 24 battery to a group 29 and found this panel/charge controller combination for a bit of a discount over buying each separately. I did a few "dry-runs" at home by discharging my battery 20-40% and bringing it back up with this panel and controller and my battery was left with the same charge that my Schumacher SC-600A charger left it at so the controller's charging logic seemed sound. Using this in the field I'm happy to have plenty of power to the point that the charge controller is usually indicating a full battery by 9:30-10:00 each morning after a night with a few hours of running about 20 watts of dome/patio lights, the water pump as necessary, two small fans overnight and the furnace induction and blower fans as needed. The system has been reliable and performance has been great so far. While I haven't hooked up a meter to verify output, my back-of-the-envelope calculation based on draining up to 40% of the rated capacity of my battery and then charging it with this panel/charge controller combination it seems to be working as advertised.
I used some 10AWG outdoor rated wire and connectors leftover from my home PV installation I completed about 3 years ago which allows me to place the panel up to 20' from the battery to get it clear of trees or other shade that we like to place our trailer beneath. Worse case I can pull the battery off and move both battery and panel/charge controller to a more favorable charging location during the day and return it to the trailer once charging completes. I crimped some ring terminals on the wires going from the charge controller to the battery for easy installation/removal keeping these wires about 2' long to reduce losses from the charge controller to the battery and keep the charge controller sheltered by the bunk that slides out over the front of the trailer. Being 85 watts this panel isn't small so spend the time to look at the dimensions and make sure it will fit wherever you plan to store and use it. Mine stows beneath the dining table with about 6" to spare.
I did discover that the panel is reasonably tough as my wife mentioned to me one evening that she caught our friends' kid standing on it behind our trailer. Yes, actually STANDING on the glass portion of the panel while it was lying behind our trailer. This panel is build in the same manner as my 200 watt panels on my roof with an aluminum frame and PV cells glued to the back side of a panel of glass. Now I know this panel can support at least 40 pounds of kid without failing. I was prompted to put together a small "A-frame" stand made with leftover aluminum rail and brackets from my home install so now I can do a better job of optimizing the tilt of my panel and hopefully avoid subjecting the panel to a load-bearing stress test!I have 4 of these panels, and all four are running flawlessly.
Mine are mounted to the top of my converted cargo trailer, and power a bank of 8 125 AH Deep cycle batteries.
The environment that these panels are in is subject to a lot of wind, vibration, and of course exposure to the elements.
They have stood up well, and only need cleaning every couple of months or so.
I have noticed that the power output was slightly higher then the specs say at first, but they settle down
after a month or two.
These panels arrived fast, and where fairly well packed. I noticed only one of the four had a minor scuff, where the edge of the box had been dented in.
It is true that these are not the most efficient, nor the cheapest panels one can buy, but you don't have to buy a pallet of them,
they are perfect for 12VDC systems, and are easy to hook up.
The frames of these panels have plenty of extra room to mount your own custom hardware to, or if need be, mounted together to form one larger panel.
Great panel, fast shipping, super easy instal, and best of all
they just plain work!

Travel Smart By Conair Adapter/Converter Combo with Surge Protection
The adapter itself is made of plastic, so it's as durable as plastic can be. The knobs that slide along the side lock in place once you've fully extended the prongs. It's a little bulky compared to other adapters, but that's because it contains several mechanisms for various prongs and the voltage converter circuitry. It also holds the input plug very snug, and the output plug also feels like a sturdy connection to the wall outlet.product worked like it was supposed to. I traveled to a few different countries and it worked in all of them. (Spain, England, Ireland) Very convenient to have an adaptor/convertor all in one!

Goal Zero 42005 Sherpa 50 Silver/Black Solar Recharging Kit with Inverter
Everything looks like it's made of good quality material. The charging time is very fast even on winter partially cloudy days.
My only concern was the integrated led light that seems to not active avery time I depress the switch. I worked it a little and it's alot better now (contact oxydation I guess).
Buy Goal Zero 42005 Sherpa 50 Silver/Black Solar Recharging Kit with Inverter Now
I live in Florida, so there is plenty of sunshine. I bought this kit directly from Goal Zero when the new Sherpa 50 first became available (for more than $100 more might I add). I have absolutely no regrets about buying this kit. I use the Nomad 13 solar panels daily to recharge my cellphone. I have a Samsung Galaxy S3, and set my phone out in the morning around 8 AM with around a 65% charge on my phone. By 11:30 AM my phone is close to fully charged. The solar panel even charges on cloudy days, although I usually get only a 90-95% charge. On absolutely rainy days, I use the Sherpa battery to charge my phone. I use approximately 20% of the battery to charge it from 50 to 100%. I have used the battery to recharge a 2nd gen iPad as well as power tool batteries (using the included 12V adapter). I can charge the iPad directly from the solar panels, but it took about 3/4 of the day, rotating the panels periodically. Considering it took me only ~4 hours to fully charge the Sherpa battery, it makes more sense to recharge the iPad directly from the battery than from the solar panel. Even though the new Sherpa is about 1/2 the weight of the old one, I would not recommend using this on casual hiking trips, as it still weighs more than 1 lb. with the solar panel plus the battery plus the inverter. For me, the whole point of hiking is to get way from everything, so I only take my phone for emergencies. I leave the tablet and other electronics behind. I use it on car camping trips and around the house, and couldn't be happier.Read Best Reviews of Goal Zero 42005 Sherpa 50 Silver/Black Solar Recharging Kit with Inverter Here

First of all, I love this thing. It works very well and for its size, it packs a lot of battery power. I also have the Goal Zero Escape 150. I wanted a smaller unit that I could take with me overseas and on adventures. I mainly wanted to power USB devices and some other things (camera battery chargers, etc...). The one big one was my MacBook Pro 15" Retina (85W power supply). While the inverter is capable of 100W, the combination of a Sherpa 50 + inverter only allows for up to 75W. Apparently, a Sherpa 100 is coming, which when used with the inverter will power up to 100W. I didnt know this until I was trying to charge my MBP on a flight and the battery 'failed' (the error message on the LCD). It charged for a few seconds, reset, charged for a few seconds, etc... My MBP has a 95WH battery, so I was hoping to get it back up to about 50%. Because it was just a bit underpowered, I wasnt able to charge my MBP. I am ordering a 60W power supply for my MBP, which I know will charge it if its not in use... I would have probably still bought this knowing that, but it was a bummer to learn the hard way. I would have given it 5 stars had I known in advance that the inverter + Sherpa 50 only gave me 75W of AC power. I understand trying to have consumer friendly messaging, but not having any solid specs kind of hurt me here...I do love this thing very very nice piece of kit. I'll definitely buy the Sherpa 100 when it becomes available too!
