Buy Sunlinq Portable Solar Panel Charger 25W 12V
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $429.99
Sale Price: $324.49
Today's Bonus: 25% Off

Product Manufacturer: Global Solar Energy
Model Indication / Branding: Sunlinq 25 Watt folding solar panel
Manufacturer Model Number: PN 22127A
Weight: 26 ounces / 737 grams
Output Unloaded: 15.6 VDC
Rated Output: 12 VDC
Nominal voltage: 14.3 VDC(Averaged)
Power: 1500mA
Connector type: SAE 2 Pin Connector "Junction"
Sunset Anti-Feedback Diode: Yes
Cell composition: Copper Indium Gallium diSelenide (CIGS)
Open size: 34" x 20" / 86.36 cm x 50.8 cm
Closed size: 8.5" x 10.5" x ~2.5" thick / 21.59 cm x 26.67 cm x 6.35 cm
This panel is my first foray into folding portable solar storage. The outer shell material appears to be a plasticized ballistic "rip stop" type nylon material [pattern] of at least a few mils thickness. (I will break out the micrometer if anyone is truly interested)
This product does not technically fall under the mil spec construction guidelines as identified by the manufacturer. The mil-spec units start at 30 Watts (or 62 Watts) and do not include the "accessory kit" . The accessory kit is only included with the 25 Watt and below units. I have not verified the low end of the scale for the accessory kit being included. But the buyer would be wise to ensure that if the kit is not included, that they have it.
This product material is stiff below 75F / 23C and prone to maintaining a memory. If allowed to be stretched out during daylight hours it will mostly conform to the flat or mildly curved surface below it, however below this temperature one will experience some mild displeasure at attempting to fold it when the following to conditions have been met. The materials has a core temp of >75F / 23C and it has been allowed to cool in a open/unfolded position. To create the least amount of stress on the panel one must consider folding these panels when warm. Unfolding the panel does not pose the same challenge as they will conform to the open position once warm.
This solar panel creates voltages that can be unhealthy for sealed/maintenance free batteries/ gel batteries and other types of batteries that do not allow the replenishment of water/acid levels. While the amperage levels are well below the unsafe levels, overcharging batteries by applying high voltages over long periods of time can produce undesirable performance characteristics in the batteries. The optional voltage regulator / charge controller is HIGHLY recommended.
This is a casual use panel. The intended purpose is to suit the qualifications of being ultra portable, mildly rugged and super cool.
The efficiency falls in between that of a rigid glass /silicone panel and above the older amorphous technology. Under peak/ideal conditions somewhere around 19%.
This panel is capable of charging smaller electronic devices directly so long as its output is regulated. On extremely bright days with low load is easily capable of producing voltages that have the potential to severely damage most consumer electronics.
In my setting I use it to keep several gel cell batteries (in parallel) topped up while car camping. This is easily enough power to run many strings of LED lights, a moderate sized car based audio system and the 12VDC margarita blender occasionally through a night and easily for 5-7 days of car camping with no outside input.
I cannot speak to survivalist purpose, but I must say that given proper care and conditions I would expect these panels to work as well as any other glass / silicone unit without the weight. Perhaps even longer for the mil-spec version.
As far as bang for the dollar is concerned. If you are looking for huge power outputs. These are not the panels you are interested in. These panels are built solely for the purpose of being lightweight, rugged and portable.
And with that purpose in mind I must say that i highly recommend them!
Originally touted as "weatherproof," this Global Solar device actually can be ruined by rain. As for the sun, it tends to dry out and crack when exposed to long sessions and the materials break down with sustained use. Even when pampered, a 3-year lifespan is all that can be hoped for, and this according to the manufacturer. It's great for the camper or hunter, who needs to pack it in a backpack, but somewhat lacking for the survivalist, who expects a 25+ year service life.
The 6W or 12W may be the way to go unless money is no object. Sadly, there's no other option except heavier glass paneled portable units, which weigh about nine pounds. If cared for, though, the heavier glass unit will provide significantly longer, if still indefinate, use.
I travel frequently in a van camper where weight & space limitations are an ever present factor, which is why I was attracted to the light weight, flexible technology in the first place. I also like to boon-dock; in those instances a well charged battery is essential.
The first thing I noticed about the 25W version is its tendency to retain a shape memory. Presumably, because the internal wires are heavier to be able to carry more electricity? Don't know, I'm not that savvy about these things.
My only concern about this model, is whether or not those wires will break with repeated opening and closing of the unit. The 12W version does not display that tendency.
A few months ago I replaced all the interior lighting in the van with LED bulbs, they are pricey but their lower power consumption, while providing adequate lighting, has proved to be very helpful, leaving more power available for the battery operated fan, TV or DVD player.
I also purchased the "Y" cable so both panels can be used simultaneously and as the literature recommended, a charge controller to prevent battery damage. So far it is all working well for my situation. If anything changes I will revise this review.

Used this product only a few times so far. It has not let me down. I would recommend using the charge controller with it. I hooked up two 7A-hr batteries (from a computer UPS). My system filled my backpack, but wasn't too heavy for our hike. This system worked great to keep my sat-phone charged as well as power left for charging some dry cell batteries.Best Deals for Sunlinq Portable Solar Panel Charger 25W 12V
This is actually a pretty nice solar charger. It only has two negative aspects. First, it only has an energy efficiency rating of about 7%, and even with tender loving care, you can forget about it lasting more than about 3-4 years.Originally touted as "weatherproof," this Global Solar device actually can be ruined by rain. As for the sun, it tends to dry out and crack when exposed to long sessions and the materials break down with sustained use.

Honest reviews on Sunlinq Portable Solar Panel Charger 25W 12V
I had previously purchased the 12W version and discovered it to be very effective, especially on cloudy or overcast days. Since the 12W version had served me so well, I decided to purchase the more powerful 25W version even knowing the company is now out of business and the obvious greater expense.I travel frequently in a van camper where weight & space limitations are an ever present factor, which is why I was attracted to the light weight, flexible technology in the first place. I also like to boon-dock; in those instances a well charged battery is essential.

FJC 45234 4 Gauge 20' 600 Amp Parrot Clamp Booster Cable Reviews
Customer Ratings: 
List Price: $72.68
Sale Price: $37.62
Today's Bonus: 48% Off

The only fault here is with ME! I thought "4 gauge" would be a bit thicker than what I got. I hindsight, I am sure these will work in just about any situation and if I need thicker gauge, I probably have other issues to deal with.
The clamps are smaller and of cheaper quality than what I thought they would be. I had a set of cables that looked like these years ago, but they were bigger and of better quality. I guess it is just like everything else in the world, "less for more", these days! I'm sure, for me, they will be fine. I hope I never have to use them, but for a professional, let's say a tow truck operator, they would be junk in less than a year.
For the price, a good product. I guess "El Cheapo" here should "pony up" next time, if he wants top shelf products. LOL
I hook-up ,tell my wife press the gas a bit ,then Honda Accord starts right away within a minute of hook-up. The parrot clamp is perfect it grips like a Visegrip locking plier . And the price is not bad. Shipping is good and fast delivery. OK OK OK ....

Reviews of Scorpio SR-i900R Motorcycle Alarm - New
Although there are some unwritten details about this alarm and it takes some getting used to, it is a very well made alarm. One neat feature that is not obvious in the manual is if the alarm is triggered and the remote is within 10 feet, the icons will flash to show a trigger, but the alarm will not go off. It "knows" you are there and the vehicle is safe. The perimeter feature and internal back-up battery (in case someone accesses the alarm and disconnects the power source) are also two nice perks. The perimeter feature will warn away someone in the vicinity, and will go off if the intruder doesn't leave. Even though it says to charge the remote daily, you probably could go at least 3 weeks without charging it. The effective range of the alarm in a city is about a quarter mile. This is my first experience with a paging alarm, and it is highly recommended if you want this type of alarm for your bike.

I found the installation instructions easy to follow, & this alarm works just as advertised, the sensitivity is easy to adjust, I reccomend this to anyone looking for an alarm that don't go off when the squirells or cats run over the seat of the bike. I am very happy I decided to get this one.Best Deals for Scorpio SR-i900R Motorcycle Alarm - New
I did have my I900 installed professionally and it works great It took a little time to adjust the perimeter alarm but once I got that taken care of it works great I have had it only about 3 weeks the the long term review is still out.Honest reviews on Scorpio SR-i900R Motorcycle Alarm - New
I made the mistake of ordering this product directly thru the company rather than amazon.com. They consist of 4 employees and when you ask to speak with the owner about the rude and obnoxious behavior of the employees they pass you around the circle telling you he is out of the county. When I originally called the company to request additional information, the young man who answered the call (sales support and tech support is the same person) was rude, obnoxious and short on his answers. At times he took deep breaths and laughed at my questions ... classy company. None the less I ordered the product because of the good reviews. What I received was a plastic and very fragile unit. During the install the cover over the speaker broke and the custom connector kit did not fit as advertised. Don't waste your money on their custom wiring kit, just use the wiring kit that comes with the alarm. After I completed the install, some of the features worked while others do not. I'm extremely technically oriented (have an electrical engineering degree) and to say the product was low quality would be right on. Pick another company that is not in financial trouble and you will be much better off. I'm wishing I had gone with the Gorilla system, would have saved money and been much more satisfied. Oh by the way, unless you return any product (defective or not) within 14 days or ordering it they will not provide an RMA. Another reason to only do business with amazon.com ... and not the vendor directly.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Scorpio SR-i900R Motorcycle Alarm - New

I could not believe it. I ordered it just to see, because I know Amazon has a great return policy. I received the Booster, opened it, noticed it had half a charge, connected it to a completed dead battery and IMMEDIATELY the car started. Unbelievable! I am considering buying another to carry in our vehicles instead of leaving it home. It is light and therefore easily handled by my wife (who needs it more than I do) and it is efficient and comes with a case to keep everything compact. I have told and shown some of my friends this product and they could not believe it either.

I bought this pair to replace my old pair of Cobra MicroTalk PR260 WXC radios (which by the way were cheapest on the market, but served great for the price of ~30$). So I had an experience and a chance to compare. Overall I can say that this Uniden 5089 radios behave far much better, but do not forget that they cost triple of the PR260s price. Uniden 5089s shewed not bad range for consumer products for about few miles in the city (this is not bad) with few hills in between and some buildings (stone, 5-7 floors) and traffic of course. When I reached the limit where Cobras lost the signal Unidens were still perfect to understand everything said by other party. Want to mention that this radios have BOOST function that increases transmitting power thus extending the range or making voice more clear, without any interference or noise in cases when standard (black) button begins transmitting with some noise due to distance or terrain. The only drawback was that pair of headsets that comes with this radios are for VOX operation and do not have button on them, you must use VOX to use them or press transmit button on the radio itself when used without VOX. This all I can say so far. I'll update my review with time when tested in other conditions.

Want to note that radios are performing well in the city, I have normal signal in the small center for about 0.5 km to 1 km in the city! My old cobras showed a result of 100 m in the same city conditions in comparison. But there is something I did not like the headset. Headsets are not bad actually, buy the cushions on them are too thin so the hurt your ear if worn for a long time because there are plastic edges which push to your ear and thin cushion on them is not enough. One thing more, there is no PTT button on the headphone so you can push it to talk, thus you are forced to push the talk button on the radio itself or use VOX (which is really unusable on any device I ever had, be it a radio or a cell phone).
There is a few seconds of static right after talking and sometimes just random static. Also, I am looking for a louder speaker, but the speaker is not as loud as some other radios, so it would be difficult to hear in a noisy environment, without the headset.
I use 2 way radios at work(noisy environment in the city) and on the ranch(open space in the country) so I am very familiar with these products and how they should operate. I've tried several Midland products that don't perform any better than these particular Unidens and a couple of Motorola products that have their own set of problems, like random channel changes and turning themselves off.
The best product I've found so far, is Cobra's CXR825, which do not get random static and the speaker is the loudest, even louder than the other cobra radios I've tried. The lock button keeps the Cobras from changing channel and powering off, but still allows the radios to be used.
As far as distance goes, everything on the market is going to get far less than what is stated, due to conditions and terrain. Everything I've used (with the exception of some Midlands that were usless after 1/10 of a mile), reaches about 1 mile in the city and as far as 5 miles in open areas.
I only purchase radios that state a 30 mile range or greater, because some of my co-workers who bought radios with a 16 mile or 22 mile range cannot be heard the 1/2 mile across the property at work.
Range: (since everyone states its not very far, but will not say how far is not very far)
These radios state long ranges and many channels. Without an FCC licence to use the radios, you are legally limited to channels 8 thru 14, which is only 1/6th the stated range in ideal conditions...that being wide open land, no trees, hills, power lines, etc.
Range in a residential location with no overhead power lines and an old neighborhood (i.e. homes are 30ft or so apart) for my 30 mile unit on channels 8-14 (max 5 miles legally without a licence), is about 0.25 miles. So basically, you are limited to about 1/20th the range in a residential area, so even at the higher power, I would estimate the 30 mile unit will get only about 1.5 miles in a residential area.

I bought the Uniden 3040-2CKHS hoping some of the reviews about static were wrong, but I should have saved my money.There is a few seconds of static right after talking and sometimes just random static.

I used three days for about 5-7 hrs each day on the same battery and still no need to change batteries, (with occasional chatter but mostly standby). I charged the batteries and extra's I bought for about 24+ hrs each so maybe it payed off. I did have a couple of batteries that wouldn't charge but I fixed it by placing a small piece of duct tape on the opposite end of the battery from the connectors to give it a bit more push in the connection direction and it works perfect. So far my max range up and down the bends of a river has been about a mile which had a little noise but was still a very readable transmission. A muffled sound coming from one was resolved by shaking the water out that had gathered in the speaker grill. The overstated max range and the fact that Uniden has been good to me in the past is why I ordered these radios.
