Buy Coleman Cable 04218 14/3 SJTW Vinyl Outdoor Extension Cord, Red, 3-Outlet, 50-Feet Now

Had better gauge, at a cheaper price because of it's 3 outlet. Nice and extra long and durable. Had absolutely no problems with it. Great cable brand have bought them before. Mine did not have a safety cover for the middle plug. Which is a little annoying. But I guess if you not using any of them it shouldn't be plugged in lol.

Still great chord, no problems at all, even under very high loads chord did not even get warm.

To person review below this cable can definitely be used outside. Just keep the open area away from water lol.

Want Coleman Cable 04218 14/3 SJTW Vinyl Outdoor Extension Cord, Red, 3-Outlet, 50-Feet Discount?

It's not easy to find an extension cord with a good length and with multiple plugs already built in. This fit the bill and works great.

The wire is really durable, and the cord is absolutely massively long. It's fantastic. The three ports on the end have the grounding port included, so that's a peace of mind.

Powerline By Original Power 0900-66 200-Watt Coffee Cup Inverter with USB Charging Port and Two Outl

This little guy is GREAT. The shape allows it to sit in your cup holder out of the way unlike the bigger odd-shaped ones that fly all over the place while you're driving.

This device is perfect for road trips. It handled my laptop and cell phone charger at the same time, and the USB port let me charge my iPod too. The plug fit just fine, and the low-power alarm is quite effective.

The only bummer is when you have a real cup of coffee and no where to put it...

This worked for maybe 20 minutes, but after that, any time I so much as plugged this unit into the car's outlet, the car's fuse would immediately blow (even with nothing plugged into the inverter).

The concept is great, having a place to put the inverter that is convenient and doesn't dangle or shift around, yet also isn't a big device that has to plug right into the accessory outlet (which isn't always placed to facilitate a device like this, and also precludes being able to simultaneously use the outlet to power anything else.) And enough people have left good reviews that I assume they're not all so prone to quick failure. Nevertheless, I will not buy another PowerLine. I previously had the PowerLine 0900-36A which also failed (though I did get more than 20 minutes out of it). So I just don't consider them reliable, and I don't know how long other reviewers have had their units.

Luckily, there are numerous other cup-holder-sized inverters to choose from, just do an amazon search for "inverter cup"

UPDATE: I purchased the Black & Decker PI100CB. It only has one outlet instead of two, but at least so far, it's working perfectly. It is possible that the Powerline failed quickly because of a design flaw other reviewers have noticed... the Powerline needs air around the fan toward the bottom of the unit and that air flow will generally get blocked once the device is actually placed in a cup holder, possibly leading to overheating and failure. The Black and Decker has a clever design which solves this problem. It comes with a rubber insert that goes in your cup holder, and the device in turn goes into the rubber insert. The smart thing is that the rubber insert itself is designed to make sure air flow to the device's fan is not blocked.

But the instructions say to not cover any of the vents while in use. That makes putting the inverter into your cup holder (as it was seemingly made for) a big no-no. The bottom of the cup is filled with vents and you can feel air blowing out when it's in use. So, they market this cool inverter that fits into your cup holder, but then give instructions that discourage you from putting it into your cup holder.....

When I put it into my cup holder, the light ended up turning red, meaning it was turning itself off.

Used this inverter once so far. Clever design. I was hoping I might be able to leave it in the car, maybe stick a disk of paper on the top to hide the outlets, and thieves would think it was just a coffee cup, but the white cord sticking out the back near the top makes that hard to pull off. Still, I love the design. Charging my shaver and my iPod at the same time was no problem, and the fan did not come on, at least not audibly. Will have to try some higher powered devices and see what happens. I have some concern, like others have, that tucking it into a tight cup holder will not leave enough breathing room for the bottom vents, but with the fan not even turning on for my typical uses, I'm not too concerned. If it ends up being an issue, I can always stick a small piece of wine cork on the bottom to give it some additional space. The 12V plug has a two-position switch to adjust the tightness of its fit in the socket, a nice touch.

UPDATE: recently when my iPhone was nearly dead, the USB port on this device appeared to not be able to charge it. After 30 minutes of charging, I still had the iPhone displaying a red "depleted battery" graphic. The graphic normally goes away within 10 minutes of initiating charging. Subsequent tests using the Apple iPhone 3G AC adapter in the inverter's 110V outlet, then the USB iPhone cable in the AC adapter, exhibited no problems. Either the 500mA provided via USB is not enough, or the iphone is picky about its USB power source. There is some info on the web suggesting the iPhone is just picky. Google "iPhone reference voltage"

Let's see..the description says 200 watt continuous 400 watt peak..Well, I bought this inverter to power my coleman inflater (170 watt)..SO I plug it in and plug into my coleman and there it goes, right? NO!! it can't handle the load..What?? isn't 170 less than 200..Why yes it is, except in powerline land...All kidding aside, if you're looking to power something close to the 200 watt range look somewhere else..if you're looking to power something less i.e. under 170 watts than this might work, but who knows..What I do know is that it WILL NOT power 170 watts so saying 200 continuous is a stretch...THANKS

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

NOTICE: 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.

OEM Car Kit Vehicle Plug in Adapter + Original Home Wall AC Travel Charger + USB 2.0 Data Sync Conne

This is a nice kit and nicely priced. Everything works well. I like that the wall charger is also a usb adapter. That way I can also charge my phone with my laptop. Also, when I upgrade to a phone with the now almost universal mini usb and no longer need this, I can still use the wall charger part that plugs into the wall to charge other usb devices.

Price was good for the car plus wall charger, but the car charger will not work at all. I even tried a couple different plug ins for it and something must be wrong with it. Has been a very good product otherwise!

HTC Sensation 4G T-Mobile Adjustable Car Windshield Dash Mount Cradle Holder Kit + Micro USB Rapic C

This broke on me :( I havent used the charger yet but the part where it connects to the suction cup came off the first day I got it.

Who ever boxed my item didnt do it right. It was already broken when I opened the box. The 2 side grips that hold the phone broke but luckily super glue fixed it. Other than those issues, this product has potential. It grips the glass and my phone pretty good. If the material they used was better I would definetly recommend it but I wouldnt buy this item again.

Because this one ain't it! Yes It holds to the glass... most of the time, yes it holds the phone without pushing the (way too long) volume buttons of the phone ( once you extend all ajustability to their far ends ) however if you try to plug in the usb charger while it is in there it pushes the plug to the side ( not good as HTC are notorious for usb port failure from anything other than perfect insertion of the plug) my biggest gripe is that when the phone vibrates this non premium holder sounds enough like a rattle snake to make dessert rat jump!

Best replacement for the original iPod Home/Travel Charger.

I love those cheapo stuff Amazon sells, like those USB hubs with SD card reader selling for less than $5.00, a bluetooth USB adapter for less than $3.00 and so on. Most of my purchases of those cheapo stuff from Amazon work fine, but often durability may be an issue, or you don't know what kind of material manufacturers of those cheapo stuff used (they could be super toxic, who knows? Most of them have no valid labels.), or have no idea where to go to get some (or any at all) support.

I bought this iPod charger, not because I needed it, but because the price was so low, I just had to have it. Of course, the shipping was so much more expensive than the actual item. When I received the unit, it was in a clear plastic bag with white label with nothing on it. I opened the bag and plugged it in, and connected my iPod Classic (6G) to this charger. The charger itself was lighting up the red LED inside the white charger casing, making the whole unit looking pink, but nothing was happening to my iPod. I pushed the connector up a bit and for a moment my iPod went into charging mode (the battery icon with a little bolt icon) but as soon as I set the iPod down on the table, the charging icon would go away. I tried a few times, with different iPods that I have, but none of them really worked. There was either jittery connection or no connection at all. Oh well, my two dollars down the drain, and I should have learned the lesson by now... but I never do! These cheapo stuff has such a weird allure to me, and I just keep spending my money on them.

I sometimes laugh when I read other people's review for this type of cheapo stuff that doesn't work. A lot of people get genuinely upset for an item they paid the bottom price for. So, my conclusion is that this charger probably would work if the connector is making a good connection to the iPod's connection plug, but obviously with my copy at least, that is not happening. (I don't want to give these people who's selling these items a bad rap and I have no doubt that these chargers work fine when they do, but I am sure I just got a lemon.) So if you are enticed by the price of this piece, think of it as a gamble. You may get the one that is working perfectly from the start (other cheapo stuff worked for me well), or like mine, not quite working. You can go through the painful procedure of RMA and returning and all that, or save yourself and spend at least $10 for a decent charger (well, maybe $20 to get a real "decent" one). Heck, Apple is charging people $20 for their iPod to USB cable alone... So this charger is a huge huge bargain. Just don't expect this less-than-two-dollar item to be just as good as $20 charger... (You don't expect a 99cent-store screwdriver to last a lifetime, do you?) So there, from my experience, I am giving two stars...

Buy Travel/ Wall Charger w/ IC Chip for Apple iPod 3G / 4G / Video / iPod Mini / iPod Nano , White Now

First of all. I gave it one star due to the awesome fast shipping. Now as far as the product goes, I bought it for my ipod 80Gig classic, plugged it in and NOTHING! It looks nice though (big deal). Really the only upside is that I am only out $3.81. I noticed on the invoice that it said iphone 3G charger however, when the box arrived it did in fact say ipod. Either way, it does not work. Trust me! This thing does not charge ipod classics. Spend the extra money and buy a charger that you know will work. I would recomend buying from the same carrier because this is the only problem I have ever had with them. NOTE: I found out that if it charges iphones, it will not charge the ipod classic.

This product was advertised on the bargaincell web site, and listed on my invoice as an Apple iPod Classic Travel Charger/Wall Charger. It was not! This fact only came to light when I charged my husband's iPod while on vacation. Consequently a $250 device was destroyed because of this falsely advertised bogus $4. charger. I now feel fortunate to have only lost one iPod. Luckily mine didn't need charging. The company did not respond to my inquiry email before purchase nor my complaint email afterward. I'd rate this product a zero, but apparently at least a one star rating is required for submission.

Sun Minicompass

I purchased this as a lightweight hiking nut to replace my heavier compass, especially since it is only for backup if my Garmin ever dies on me while in the wilderness. The construction quality is great and it seems to be very accurate. The only reason I did not give it a 5 star rating was that the lanyard was not long enough after tying a knot in the end to allow it to go over my head so I could wear it around my neck. The lanyard is very thin and lightweight which help keep the total weight down to just 9 grams! Do no forget to melt the ends of the nylon lanyard to avoid fraying over time since this may weaken the already thin lanyard. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to keep pack weight down but wants an accurate compass.

Emgo Handlebar-Mount Cigarette Lighter 86-44410

Mounts on 7/8in and 1in bars
Includes hot and ground leads
Comes with a fuse holder

I had to fabricate my own mounting clamp for this for 2 reasons.

1. clamp that came with the unit was too small for my 09 Honda VTX 1300R.

2. the holder itself looked weak due to plastic construction, VTX 1300 vibrates a lot.

3. it's larger(the lighter/socket assembly) than the photo shows and I needed the extra length to the holder for clearance.

The weatherproof cap is not too snug so, it may be better to leave the lighter in place. At least it'll keep the rain/water from going into the socket.

The wires that's supplied is way too short for handlebar mount, unless you want to splice into your existing system, like headlight, that comes on when the ignition is turned on...hey, when the lighter is not used, it won't draw any current any way so why cut into the wiring? Just get some extra wires and connectors and go direct to the battery positive terminal. You can put the ground(black wire) anywhere metallic.

For whatever accessories you plan to use this, make sure you have the right fuse installed for universal use. My rule of thumb is 150% of max amp the device uses. example: If device draws 1 amp max, I'll put in a 1.5 amp fuse. You might want to have some extra sizes handy for various devices, if possible. A 1 amp device with 10 amp fuse installed to be used for the most powerful device you got is NOT a good idea!

The first thing that caught my attention, was the very-well written instructions. The assembly is very rugged and except for the exposed back-end should weather storms. With this being advertised to be handlebar mounted, it got me questioning why the manufacturer would leave the electrical wiring unprotected instead of somehow putting the connections inside somekind of screw-on sleeving. They do try to cover their tracks with a weak disclaimer in the instructions--something to the effect of "mount this in weather-proof area", but come-on, this is suppose to be mounted on motorcycle bars! Anyways, I slapped on a thick layer of liquid electrical tape around the entire back end and PRESTO the perfect 12V power socket.

Works like it should. Put on my 7/8 bars a year ago and still holds fine. Powers my gps and air compressor. The actual lighter is cheaply made and broke after 3-4 weeks. Bought another lighter and no problems since. It is one of the few made that can actually be used as a cigarette lighter due to the metal inside rather than the plastic many other outlets are made of. Overall, I have no regrets.

Want Emgo Handlebar-Mount Cigarette Lighter 86-44410 Discount?

There are better more pricey units out there but for the price, it does what is advertised with one weakness--couldn't mount to handlebar due to clamp size and wiring length. Instead, mounted it on right passenger floorboard bracket which is within easy reach for wires to battery and charger for cell extending from right jacket pocket straight down to it. As for the exposed electrical wiring and fitting at bottom, black automotive vacuum tubing (available in varying diameters--split the side if you have to for fuse fitting) works great for covering wiring and hot glue for sealing it to exposed fitting connection. One caution: make sure when mounting, the cap hinge is positioned to the front of the unit/bike so if the cap comes loose at 60 with a 30 mph head wind it won't snap off like my first one did when mounted at the rear of unit. When I know in advance I'll be riding in rain, I add a wrap of electrical tape to the cap bottom for added sealing. Wouldn't recommend leaving lighter plugged in while riding or bypassing/excluding the fuse. Haven't had a problem with quality of the plastic clamp in 4 years of use of first one purchased. Never broke, always snug. Oh yes, bike mounted on: Rigid-mount '86 Heritage Softtail (lots of vibration). No problem recommending for purchase. Shipping was as advertised. Received within 4 days in original new packaging.

Apple iPod Battery Pack for shuffle 1st Generation

Extend the battery life of your iPod shuffle with this battery pack
Two AAA batteries keep music playing up to 20 hours after the internal battery is drained
Signature Apple design and quality construction ensure years of use
A perfect companion for long plane rides, hikes, or any time you're away from the computer for a while
Compatibility: iPod shuffle (1G only)

This battery pack from Apple is just the right companion for you shuffle on trips with no access to USB ports. Plug in the shuffle into this pack and you are ready to go. And as with any Apple product it just works, you don't have to worry about buying an unknown brand accessory.

Also I suspect this should keep working with future generation of Shuffle, since its normal USB based. And possibly other devices like Treo 650, Tungsten E etc which can be charged from its USB port.

In short this is perfect and elegant solution to recharge battery on the go for your mobile device and almost certainly future proof.

Nice back up to the rechargable battery. Of course, the built in battery does not have unlimited recharges. This is the answer extended playback time plus no worries when the rechargable battery fails to hold a charge.

I tried out my friends battery pack with my own iPod Shuffle and I have to say that it does indeed increase the battery life. I usually get around 10 hours of playback and the battery pack gives it an extra 15-16 hours. But again, even though the battery pack isn't that bulky itself, the concept of having a light weight flash player with an attached battery pack is odd. Looks and feels slightly big. I don't use my Shuffle for long drives, since it isn't made for that. Get the regular iPod instead. If you are not satisfied with the normal battery life(which is quite good), then go ahead and get this. But you might just lose the iPod Shuffle touch; lightweight and compact.

I purchased this in the hopes that is would help keep a longer battery life for my iPhone 3GS. Unfortunately when you plug in the device into the phone a pop up appears that reads, "Charging is not supported with this accessory". Given you can't fault the product for not supporting something that it wasn't designed for (as it charges my shuffle and other iPods great). However I have seen this same product work on earlier versions of the iPhone so that is why I am faulting the company more than the product. If it works on another version of the iPhone why did the company have to change how the device charges? So basically, if you are purchasing this for the iPhone 3GS it will NOT work.

Not much to really review as this is just an extension cable.

Electronic load limiter with LED indicator protects the tool from overload, self-locking geartrain with dynamic braking and circuit breaker protected

I bought this for a boat engine replacement project. I returned it. Quick story... Approx 600lb motor, well within 1000lb rating of puller. On first try. the puller went an inch or two and cut out (overload safety). Hmmm found that the tool had arived with the puller cable spooled backwards, causing it to rub and abbraid on the entry opening and spooler mechanism. Pulled the cable all the way out and wound it back in correctly. The abbraision problem was solved, but the thing still cut out after every few inches. Finally got the engine high enough, then started moving it down onto a dolly. The variable speed which kind of worked in the pull mode does not work at all in the release mode. The slightest trigger pull caused the load to lower quickly and a minimum of an inch or more. Useless come time to gently lower the engine onto engine mounts. I'm returning it and getting a manual chain hoist. This product is a great concept, but a poor execution. It might be good for dragging trees or something, but not for any kind of precision work.

When I asked them about it, they simply say "We would like to help BUT........ and you can reorder another online if you wish." Fat chance of that. The time and expense of shipping a faulty piece of equipment back and forth isn't worth the hassle or the cost. Bottom line: Faulty product Lousy customer service.

Bought this for light duty pulling in my shop. The first unit would over run several inches no matter how light the trigger pull. It was hard to judge where it would stop. I also found that the cable had a broken strand that could catch a finger if not wearing gloves so I returned it for another.

The new one allows me to feather the trigger so that it will stop where I want it to. I downloaded the service manual from the Warn site. It's 50 pages long and has a lot of detail. From the manual it looks like the winch has had several revisions.

The manual advises to discard the tension plate if it has one. I think my first one did as it had a black drum guide in the picture and the new one is gold colored. It also shows a revised hook, but both my units had the old one.

The manual states that old units have a circuit breaker and the new ones have a rocker switch. Both my units had the circuit breaker. It's a little disappointing that the old units are still being sold. Maybe this is a recent improvement. It would be nice to leave the unit plugged in and turn off the rocker switch.

The direction switch is confusing as if you think of the unit going up or down the direction arrows are backwards. If you remember to think of the cable going in or out the arrows are correct. I made in-out and direction arrow labels with a label maker so I won't have to think about it.

I think the Pullzall is a very good idea, but could be of better quality. The fairlead on both units is rough cast and would be easier on the cable if were smooth. I would recommend that you check to make sure the Pullzall that you order has the updated features.

Installed for use as a hoist in the attic, for lifting heavy storage items through an access hatch.

Pros: I like the versatility of the unit. It is lightweight and can be used for outside applications like pulling shrubs out, hoisting things in the garage, trees, etc. It performed well in the Attic application in lifting three window air conditioners that were stored for the winter.

Cons: It is a bit slow. It is geared low, and overshoots when you release the trigger, making it difficult to come to an exact position. (not a big issue) I would have liked to have a cargo net available with the unit. I could not find one and had to build a small plywood platform with ropes attached in order to lift items into the attic. This works OK, but a net would be much easier.

This is a great tool for quick and easy access to pulling-I can connect to my 1500w power inverter and use it anywhere. The only drawbacks I see are that the power cord is short (12"), and there is not a free cable disconnect, so if you need the full length of cable, you have to run it out electrictly, a time and power grabber. I carry a pully and hook system to increase my cap, to 2000 lbs, you can do more, if you have the pullys and cables.
