Turbo Charge TC Portable Charger for iPod and iPhone

Extends playtime up to 16 hours with 2 AA batteries
Low-battery LED warning system and battery saving on/off switch
AlgorChip technology regulates the flow of energy from the TC²charger unit into the iPod battery
Includes AA batteries, adapters and deluxe carrying case

I bought this little marvel for my new iPod Classic 80GB... I saw this and tought it would be great for when I'm travelling, in the beach or out for some photoshoot... And I was right man!

I use this with some 2100 Ni-mh and It recharges my iPod without any problem and really fast... about 80% charge in a mere 15 minutes... and you can even charge while the iPod is working. I haven't got into how many charges can it make per a couple of AA's... but with the Ni-Mh's at least 4 or 5.

Let me do you a favor: do no hesitate, just buy it... is trully amazing (and let's face it... is pretty cheap ah?)

Buy Turbo Charge TC Portable Charger for iPod and iPhone Now

I just got this and even though it has a "works with iphone" tag on it, it does not work with the iphone 3g. The company support was very helpful and they say they're working on it. But for now, it does not work. I'll be returning it.

I wrote a review of the cell-phone turbo charger I had issues, with the process, not the product. This item is great and it really does work. Recently I was on a long trip and used it to continue watching movies on my IPod Classic. The actual charger is the same for the cell phone and IPod. If you have one, you just need to order the adapter for the other. (IPod classic takes adapter TA202).

This is a great little device and it does what it advertises. I can't say it does it any faster than standard USB charging, but it does charge nonetheless. On an iPod Touch 2nd Gen. it is pretty much only good for one charge and then you need to put in another set of batteries. I still find this a better option than a built-in battery because you can find AAs anywhere and not to mention rechargeable AA NIMH batteries. Why AA NIMHs are a better option? Well you can get them in two flavors: 1.) Regular that take a bit to charge and 2.) Fast Rechargeable NIMHs that can usually be charged in 15 minutes. I don't believe any built-in battery devices can recharge in 15 minutes. So charge your batteries in 15 minutes and you got a backup ready when needed.

I don't have anything else to add because most of the other reviews have covered it. I just wanted people to know that it does work with an iPod Touch 2nd Gen. and I highly recommend it.

This charger works great -it is ideal for long flights to make sure you can keep watching movies on your video iPod or iPod touch / iPhone. Works as advertised.

Kawasaki 840045 Black 19.2-Volt 1-1/3-Amp Hour NiCad Pod Style Battery

Replacement 19.2V Battery
Compatible with all 19.2V Unisource Tools
3-5 hr recharge time
Clip-on style fits Kawasaki regular duty cordless tools
ABS housing

Perfect replacement for original battery # 690071 or 691235 but the literature does not say so until you get the battery with its packaging. It fits and works on tool set # 840055 which includes drill # 691234 and other tools. I will never again buy Craftsman tools because Sears deliberately changes their batteries and chargers so that they are never backwards compatible, and you have to buy new batteries at more than the cost of the original tool set. Batteries are the weakest link on portable tools, so buy with battery replacement in mind-get them early before they are discontinued.

Make sure you order this ONLY for the exact drill model number...even if the pic looks like it will work. In addition to not working for my husband's drill, the seller's customer service was extremely poor/ non-existant.

The referenced (and advertised) item is NOT the item that was shipped. Without notice of backorder status or requested permission from AUTO BARN to ship alternative item number, a different item #691240 was sent. After inquiry with the shipper, they admitted that the sent item was a replacement for the other 'back-ordered' item. Research on the shipped item revealed that there was a factory recall for the shipped item 691240 due to 'possible fire hazard'. Via AUTO BARN, I requested a statement from the mfg.'r that the shipped item was equivolent to that ordered and that there was no fire hazard either. The shipper AUTO BARN has refused to respond or acknowledge my concerns. I have requested a refund or replacement for the correct ordered item. So far, no response. Reference AUTO BARN Order # 53345.

Even it fits my drill and charger, they changed the battery pack. So there is no 3 contacts, but only two side ones. (the third towards the center battery which is on my battery packs 691034 is missing on this one).

This means that my battery charger 690507 can not (will not) charge the battery pack.

That is it.

If you are more electronics savvy, i looked inside the battery what was actually changed. There is just totaly same inside (even exactly the same NICD batteries) with one exception from minus pole there is a connection to the third above mentioned pole via some piece of small unidentified electronic device (condensator or resistor probably). So i took one from my expired battery pack and made it in about 15 minutes with my solder. It works now. I guess manufacturer wants you to buy new charger or the whole thing..... They have to eat i guess.

This wall charge is something I got as an auxiliary aide when I bought my GPS so that if needed, I could charge my Garmin GPS from an ordinary 110V AC wall socket if I had to do some extensive programming in the house, or if the GPS hadn't been used for a while and it needed to be charged to be ready for a trip.

It turns out that I have never had to use it! The battery in the Garmin GPS holds a charge sufficiently well that a wall charger wasn't necessary. But the dealer sold it at a good price, delivered it quickly and it was nicely packaged. So, kudos for the dealer for being an honorable merchant!

The unit arrived in a very reasonable period of time.

Short instruction manual contained inadequate how-to information (green attempt by Garvin, they say). Other than that, with the information available on line, the unit does what it claimed.

I have had the nuvi 780 for about a month and yesterday, received a lowbattery notification on-screen, which replaced the map while I was using it for directions to a distant location.

The low-battery notification occurred while the unit was plugged into a working DC cigarette lighter outlet in the car and required the nuvi to be turned off since the notification replaced the on-screen map.

The on-screen information is excellent easy to read and interpret.

The mounting hardware supplied with the unit is excellent in all respects.

The nuvi speaker audio is rather poor quality but the use of a cassette adapter with the car stereo is very good. (I have not tried to use the NUVIs FM output to the car radio but reviews say it is too lacking in power to be useful and my antenna is rear mounted.)

The NUVIs routing voice notifications are bit difficult to understand but they are much better than nothing; it requires getting used to.

Check to see if MS Direct information (trial version comes with the nuvi) is available in your area if you want this service. (It isn't in my area but seems to be available in most or all larger metropolitan areas.)

Bluetooth Handsfree In-car Visor Kit for All Samsung Phones

I bought this mostly for work. I drive around as a service tech and get calls on the road quite a bit. Considering I have two phones, one bussiness and one personal, this works great because I can sync both phones to it!! It states to have an 8 hour talk time which works great for a busy day or lenghty call while on the road. So for 24 buck this is perfect! The speaker is loud enough to hear, and I have no problems people hearing me on the other end. The only negative I can think of is that the connection for charging isn't the mirco USB my phones and most things are. Its slightly larger, but the end that plugs into the 12v outlet does detach for a standard USB, so it can plug right in with the dual charger I use. I love it for what I need!!!

Even though I originally brought the device for myself. I gave it to my daughter who fell in love with it. Her boyfriend wanted one for himself, so I ordered a second one.

Sync & Charge USB Cable for Apple iPod Touch 2G (White)

I disagree with other review low rating.

Manufacturer of this cord cannot be held responsible for the IPOD case you picked out. These reviews, and star ratings, are to be based on Product Item itself. This product does fit the IPOD touch, and performs its charging duties well.

This USB IPOD charger cord is a wonderful product and is very convenient for me to use. Instead of having to find wall outlets behind desks or couches. I can easily sit down in front of my computer and plug the IPOD charger in right in front of me.

These USB cables are exactly like the one supplied with my Itouch. They even look like they are from the same source that Apple uses since the wrappings are identical. Very happy with this item.

I purchased this item 1 year ago in April 2011 and it broke on me after a month of use. I recently came across this item in my junk drawer which reminded me to fill out a review for my purchase.

The plug end that goes into the iPod separated from the cable, exposing the wires and breaking off the solder leads to the plug. I really don't believe I was being rough with it at all; only used it at my computer desk. This cable is also extremely thin.

Alternately, the cable that came with the Belkin F8Z446 Micro Auto Charger with Charge Sync Cable for iPhone and iPod has been excellent, is hefty, and will take a beating in the hot car. Of course it cost more.

My 17 year old son uses his iPod Touch constantly & charges it several times per day. This cord is holding up great and works just like the Apple branded ones, just WAY LESS EXPENSIVE!! I bough 2 so he could have one in the truck too.

Midland Consumer Radio LXT500VP3 22-Channel GMRS with 24 Mile Range

22 Channel GMRS with Up to 24 Mile Range
Call Alert for incoming call notification
Channel Scan
Hi/Low Power Setting
Dual Power Option

Be aware these are only 22 channels and don't have the privacy subchannels that the more expensive radios offer. If you are OK with that they will likely be fine. I didn't realize models were available with the subchannels until after I ordered these so I sent them back and got the Midland GXT1000VP4 with the privacy channels.

These radios were bought as a test for other radios from the midland product line. They were used nov 5-12 2012 on private land approx. 800 acres 200 of which is wooded the rest farmland. There is nothing but hills and valleys here where my family hunts in the 200 wooded. We have no base station between the radios. The reception is great, clarity of the sound as well. We have since decided to purchase more of these rather than the more costly ones from midland radio line. They have done very well for us and will continue to use them time and time again. A+ product.

We bought these for our daughter for out at our summer vacation campsite, she loves them cause she and her friends can go run and play and we can check on there where abouts or they check in with us. we also use them at home when she goes to a friends house. the signal strength/range is very good she can go blocks away. she got lost looking for a friends house and called me asap i was able to talk to her while i went to find her, made it nice cause she told me the street sign where she was at and we found her right away. we decided to see how true the range was and took one to the video store which was 15 to 20 city blocks from my home and we got awesome reception, some static but not bad at all. the next test will be going further to see if they do have true range. if you want a nice product for this type of use i suggest it.

I purchased this as a gift for my 12-year old. We have had many of these in the past and they are great forms of communication for your kids in the neighborhood, at a theme park, or wherever. I know how to work them, I know how to charge the batteries and like many many other folks pointed out THE BATTERIES WILL NOT CHARGE. And like many other people I was foolish enough to think Midland would respond to my requests for support. They did not. Only postive here is that Amazon was easy on the return policy and they should be commended for it. Midland not a company worth trusting.

We bought this for our boat to go along with a new Sony stereo, 4 speakers, and subwoofer. The sound quality with just the Sony stereo and speakers was not impressive, I was ready to return everything. Lots of noise and any bass sounded awful. We decided to give the stereo and speakers a chance by buying the Sony subwoofer and amp. I am so glad we did. After hooking everything up, which was easy, the sound quality was amazing. Everything from Hip-hop to high-treble 80's music sounds great. I was worried because Sony is not known for sound quality, but I am sold from now on. I hope this review helps. I could not find enough reviews when I was buying this product.

Buy Sony XM604M Marine 4/3-Channel Amplifier Now

After getting my boat with the factory head unit and speakers in it, I opted for sony's marine unit to add capability to the boat for using ipods-sirius-mp3 discs etc. That went great, as I could use many new modern devices, but the sound was terrible with my 2 little 25 watt RMS speakers. So then I dropped in some new polk (100 watt RMS) speakers. Much better sound but now the head unit couldn't push enough power to the speakers and the unit would start to clip the sound at higher volumes as it struggled to try and keep up. So to cure this I opted for this amp. Now I have what I consider great, clean, clear, crisp sound at very loud levels without any distortion. Now I am not the biggest audiophile out there and this is my first install of head units, speakers and amps but it is all very clear and easy to understand and do. I guess now my next move will to be to buy a sub woofer to run off the amp and then to buy a wakeboard tower and install some more speakers and then buy another amp to run those and then buy the remote commander for the stern etc...But seriously this amp so improved the overall sound and capabilities of my system that it is now something you want to use and listen to.

I bought a Ski Centurion Elite V 22' boat and wanted to upgrade the stereo system from the existing Alpine unit (which didn't have an i-pod port) and the older marine speakers. I installed this Sony Amp, along with the Sony CDXM60UI Marine Stereo and 6 Polk DB-651 speakers (4 in the boat & 2 on the tower). This combination has a clean crisp sound, even at a higher volume, with a nice bass. I'm so impressed with this amp. My installer was also impressed with how this system sounded. I would recommend it highly.

I am using this Sony amp with the Kenwood KDC-BT752HD car receiver in a boat. The head unit puts out 2.5volts from the pre-outs going to the amp. I am using 4ohm marine speakers rated at 65watts rms. I installed amp with full 8 guage power and ground wires to the battery that are both 16 feet long and Scosche twisted audio cable from the head unit to the amp. Using Ohm's Law, the voltage output of the amp can be 16.1volts before clipping occurs. Volts=Square Root of (Amplifier's power in watts which is rated at 65rms x Resistance in ohms of your speaker which is 4 ohms). I have the head unit at 3/4 volume with a 1000Hz tone playing on the CD and I can only get a maximum of 14 volts from the front speaker outputs and 13 volts from the rear speaker outputs with the amps gain turned all the way up. The Sony amp is not putting out enough voltage to maximize the speakers output, but at least I will not get any clipping. The sound is loud and clear enough so no complaints yet. I have no prior experience with mobile amps to compare it with and have used it only one hour. The quality in the construction of the amp appears to be good on the outside. So far I would recommend to others.

CONS: The only problem I can see would be that the low pass filter switch is not adjustable and only on the rear speaker outputs and high pass filter switch is also not adjustable and only on the front speaker outputs. There is no bass boost, if that is important to you.

This charger is a must have if you own multiple vehicles and/or farm equipment like I do. I got it on sale for around $290 and have to say it's worth every single penny. The recovery mode is a cool feature because if you lose power it remembers the previous setting when the power comes back on, so you really can just plug this charger in and set it with no worries of over-charging or damaging your batteries. You can pretty much charge anything with this beast too, this is a swiss-army charger in my opinion.

You can find other chargers that are cheaper, but this G26000 model works well and is worth the extra money. I have used it to charge multiple batteries the past few weeks and I haven't had one battery this charger was unable to charge yet and some of the batteries were over 5 years old.
