I use the Tripp Lite APSRM4 as a remote battery and function monitor and controller for a Trip Lite 750W inverter in my camper. It has nice looking face plate which provides several mounting options. The photograph of the unit is accurate. I'm pleased with it and would recommend it to others.

The Good: This is easy to install and it works just like they said it would. I use mine connected to a TripLite APS1250 in my motorhome. This easily allows me to operate the ASP1250 from a remote location.

The Bad: This unit will NOT allow you to turn off the APS1250 when not in use. At best it will only place it into a very low power standby mode. still have to access the ASP1250 to turn it on/off before or after use.

The Ugly: When using the large mounting plate it requires a fairly large hole be made into whatever you are mounting it into. But the plate is much larger then the hole so this is of little consequence.

Everything about this generator came just in time.

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.

Honest reviews on Powermate PM0106507 Vx Power Series 8,125 Watt 420cc Gas Powered

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,

P-300 Soldius 1 with iPod Tip and Mobile Phone Kit (1 charger kit) Review

P-300 Soldius 1 with iPod Tip and Mobile Phone Kit
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
NOTE: I have the charger with the full connector kit, meaning instead of 1 tip I've got 7.

This charger is great.

I use it to charge my Insignia Ns-DV4g and 2g, it works like a charm.

It says you should expect it to take 30 seconds in the sunglight before it starts charging but mine begins almost immediately.

I found the item to be plenty sensitive to the Sun.

It is sleek and attractive unlike most of the other charges I've seen out there.

Very simple to operate, even digital immigrants won't have trouble using it.

The various connectors are pretty comprehensive. If you were going on a long outdoor trek like I am you could charge your mp3 player, a USB AA/AAA battery charger, a garmin GPS, your cell phone and probably just about anything else you can think of.

I like that it's a folding unit because mine will be in my backpack a lot while hiking and I don't want the panels exposed to direct pressure and other sources of possible damage.

All around it is a kick butt unit, get one. I paid 30$ USD shipping included so shop around!

Reviews of 50 Watt Step Down Voltage Converter UK

50 Watt Step Down Voltage Converter UK
Customer Ratings: 3 stars
Buy Now
I was looking for low power converters with UK style plugs to use with my US cordless phone chargers in Nigeria. I purchased 3 of the voltage converters and have used them for about two months with no problems so far. The three have been in continuous use with wide fluctuations in input voltage due to daily power failures and switching to backup generators. Although they are rated at 50 watts, my application probably only loads them to about 5 watts maximum.

Note that many chargers use switching regulators and will work with either 120 or 240 volt input so you may not need a step down converter just an adapter to make the physical connection to the local outlets. My cordless phone chargers were labeled as 120 volt only so I ordered the step down converters and have been happy with them.

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.

Saved a tone of money with this. I'll be honest and I am sorry for this, but I do speed on freeways in America. Sorry, but in my opinion speed limits are way too low here. It's hard to drive on Autobahns with no speed limits one day, and then the next thing you know, you live in America and you have to live with 55/65 mph. So to cut the chase, I've purchased this unit to avoid tickets and to replace my previous lower end Cobra that had a lot of false alarms.

Summary:

Fake alarms reduced by 90% (besides funny moments such as warning me of Train and Railroad when going to Safeway)

Voice warning comes handy

Detects highway patrol/cops from far far away, including their most advanced guns, thus saving you a fortune.

Beware some officers know their job well: Will not protect you from those smart officers, who know how to ticket you by tailgating you. No detector will help you against that one. Trust me I got ticket that way.

Checked legality with friend of mine who is an Officer and found out that these are not illegal in California. BUT:Keep on mind that seeing one in your car will certainly NOT make Officer happy, and it WILL put you in A bad light.

To conclude: Well paid off investment. I was supposed to be ticketed dozen of times w/out this. At least I am honest and hope that helps. But don't be me. I still don't encourage you to you to speed and drive unsafely. Be smart, at the end of the day all that speeding, will save you only 2-3 minutes. I promise to change, too.

:)

P.S. If in need for speed: Go to the race track.

I recently took a 400 mile round trip with my Cobra and I was very pleased in fact it saved me twice from getting a $180 ticket so it more than paid for it self two times over. False alerts are very rare and it's very obvious by the strength that it's from a store. On a straight run on the highway I get about a two mile or more warning. On hills and curves that is cut down quite a bit but still enough time to slow down. I love the extra features like the compass and intellimute. The usb port for the gps module is great to have if I ever want red light camera capability. The size is a little longer that other radar detectors but the suction cup mount seems stronger that the $350 Escort I had and the unit does not shake like the Escort did. The coiled cord is nice and is a perfect length for my car. A long straight cord is available if anyone needs that.

Overall I'm very happy with the Cobra. It looks great and works great. What more can you ask for? Buy it. You'll like it.

(Update)

After enjoying the XRS 9945 for a couple of weeks I decided to get the red light gps module. Although I haven't taken any trips yet that encounter red light cameras, I really like being able to put in my own user alerts (up to 1000) and having my speed and more accurate compass available. I feel I have the complete package now.

(Second Update)

I don't know why people are bashing Cobra radar detectors. The XRS 9945 has worked as well as an Escort 8500 I had a while back plus it has tons of useful features. I read about a $500 Bell and how it knows the difference between non police signals and police radar (different freq's). My Cobra does that at one quarter the price. I had a low end Cobra from Walmart and a mid range Whistler and they were both junk. The only time they would alert to a police radar is when you were withing 100 ft. However they alerted to everything else. The Cobra XRS 9945 is not in that class at all. It is so quiet sometimes I think it's not working. It seems the way I have it configured, the only time it alerts is when it's a cop. Isn't that what we want from a detector? It is a quality, reliable product with tons of features for a great price.

Best Deals for Cobra XRS 9945 Voice Alert 15-Band Radar/Laser Detector

I can't justify paying more than $100 dollars for a RADAR detector. This one does the job fine. All RADAR detectors will give false alarms for door openers, etc., since they use the same frequencies. Also, officers have to have their RADAR on for your detector to work. Some of the reviews on here whined about police officers being right next to them and it not going off.

For a cheap RADAR/LIDAR detector, the Cobras work just like they should. They cannot do magic, and neither can the $400 ones. The only advantage to the more expensive ones are if they come with remote mounted (front and rear) sensors. Otherwise, it's the same technology for 4x times the price.

Honest reviews on Cobra XRS 9945 Voice Alert 15-Band Radar/Laser Detector

I have been using this product for well over 3 months already n at first it was not senstive bit when I started to play around with the setting I found it to be very senstive... When I first got it had a hard time picking up the ka band. But since now I have set it up the right way. I usually pick up the ka band from 2 to 3 miles away. And the laser from a cop about a mile away. It's a really good radar detector and I recommend you to get it but I will say you have to play with the settings before you use it. If anyone has any questions just as me I'll glady help you out...

Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Cobra XRS 9945 Voice Alert 15-Band Radar/Laser Detector

This is a very well designed Cobra 14 band radar/laser detector. It has multiple functions of which can be turned on or off.

Some earlier reviews remarked that it is too sensitive, Thats not true, reading the instructions is a must for this detector as it is not just a basic plug and play.

Yes you can just plug it in but you have the option of adjusting it for your driving conditions.

The intelimute shuts the detector off when the engine rpms fall below a certain level.

This eliminates a constant warning while you are sitting still.

The voice feature is nice. It can be turned off or on.

I found it odd that it begins with a female voice saying " system ready" and afterwards the warnings are male voices.

I would not recommend this as a first detector because it's features would overwhelm a novice.

But for the seasoned detector user, this is a great detector to have.

It has a built in memory that will store any settings you make to the detector when the power is turned off,

I have owned several detectors in the past both cobra and whisper and I am very pleased with this model.

My first two controllers were PWM types. As I read and learned more about solar panels/solar systems I realized I'd be considerably better off with an MPPT type of controller. I bought the 20 amp size of the MPPT Tracer2210RN Solar Charge Controller to allow me room for expansion. I have a meter monitoring what's coming in off the panels, another meter monitoring what's coming out of the controller, a third meter telling me what's in the batteries. By using the PWM controller for several months I got to know and expect what those meters would say. After installing the MPPT controller, right away I saw considerable differences, all good. I saw the batteries recover faster and brought to a higher voltage (safely, as the directions had explained). I would have to say those claims of gaining 20-30% are true. MPPT is simply a much better system for charging batteries.

The internals of this unit are not anything I studied in school..I just followed the directions and go by what my meters are telling me. I would recommend this unit to anyone starting a solar system, or to anyone who wants to extract every drop of power from their present system.
