I bought this doo-dad so I could charge my Plantronics 510 blue tooth earpiece in my car. The added bonus is that with the two USB ports I can now charge my phone and earpiece at the same time. The only real price for that is that this unit is a bit bulky compared to my prvious car-phone charger; it certainly makes for a longer plug. The blue LED light on the unit is a bit bright at night on dark roads out in the sticks, but it really hasn't been much of a problem. USB adapter cables for various devices are dirt cheap so this way you don't have to buy a new car charger every time you change devices. You can also charge Ipods and other similar devices without needing 110V power. I may get a second one for the second vehicle.

Great backup power to have while on the road. I was working a trade-show with a friend that forgot to charge their iPhone over night. I charged his phone from 16% to 85% so he could make a conference call and close a sale before the bid date closed. Then I was able to charge my iPhone 4s (from 65% to 100%) and had charge remaining.

I received as a gift and can say that it out charges my other 2200 charger by 40%. The bag and extra adapters are a nice touch but i'll only be using the cable and 30 pin connector for my iPhone 4S. I love the pink color and the charging indicator. I know exactly when it's fully charged and ready to go. With a 1 year warranty from the manufacturer it's a good deal for the price.

I got this for my Mp3s en and my eBook cause I love to listen to my tunes in the car and it's easy to use, When I got it I read how you hook it up and I let it charge first and its ready to go. But the draw back to this is this usb cable to hook it up to my laptop broke when I was hooking it up but other usb cords will work with it. I could have sent it back but it still works so I kept it. that's the only draw back there is and if you listen to your mp3 always make sure you keep it charged you can hook it up tp the computer and let it charge. When the light turns green or in my case blue it means it's done charging.

Honest reviews on Original OEM Car + Travel Charger + Data Cable For Motorola Droid X

I know the Droid X is an old phone (by now), but when I had my phone plugged into the wall charger, the phone began exhibiting some ridiculously strange behavior such as: opening and closing random apps on its own, opening the messaging app (droid OS default) and typing messages to people in my contact list, creating calendar events with gibberish in the description, and so on. In short, it seemed like my phone was possessed! Never happened with any other charger or when the phone was not plugged in.

I could only attribute it to the wall charger...very weird. Other than that, everything else was great.

We have been waiting for this tool for several months. We finally found a supplier who had one in stock and bought it. Today, we used it for the first time. For lug nuts, be careful, as this tool has so much torque it might tear off your lug nut. We used a torque stick to be safe. We had been using a DeWalt 18 volt impact, with mostly success. However, this tool is much more powerful. When running it has heft and torque. You must have strong hands and arms and be ready. Great tool.

My wife received these radios as a gift and we promptly used them in Glacier National Park. We only charged them up overnight, not the 24 hours recommended. Regardless, they lasted about two days which may be symptomatic because of the short charging time. As for their range, 2 couples were hiking and we were separated at some times by distance or terrain. The radio transmission was clear, the units easy to use, and easy to setup. The two power levels are tied to the particular channel selected by the user. When you select the channel, be sure to read the manual or you may have a visit from the FCC as a few of the channels require a radio license. One other thing is that the radios will automatically shut off if the batteries are too low. My recommendation is that if you are going to be on the trail for several days, have 4 AAA batteries as a backup. The weather radio function is a nice touch.

These radios are great but they (in NO way whatsoever) will broadcast or recieve radio transmissions from anything more than maybe 5 miles away if you're lucky (they didn't even come close to that when a friend and I tested this). Otherwise, they are decent (a little on the larger size but decent).

The radios do, however, feature a great function that allows you to monitor two channels at the same time... so you can monitor what the enemy has to say as well as what your team has to say... just gotta figure out their channels LOL!

Honest reviews on Turbo Charge TC Portable Charger for iPod and iPhone

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.

Spend the couple of extra dollars on this. The wide range of movement on the dial makes it easier to see small differences between individual cells in a battery. It dosn't say so on the web-site, but on the box it states that it self compensating for tempurature.

Easy to use and quickly shows which battery (and which cells) are good, fair or poor. I have two old golf carts that have questionable batteries, and its always been difficult to determine which battery to replace (other than by age), and when I did this I quickly found the bad battery in each cart, and when replaced greatly improved the charging and charge holding capacity of each GC. For the price, you can't beat it.

Short of a laboratory grade instrument, this hydrometer gets the job done. I use it to monitor my solar power system battery bank, so it's important that it gives accurate and repeatable measurements. The built-in temperature compensation is a help no need to use cumbersome and confusing compensation charts. My only (small) complaint is that you need to be sure that the device is level when filled with battery acid or the reading will be off a bit. If you pay attention to this detail you'll be fine.

Honest reviews on E-Z Red SP101 Battery Hydrometer

[edited] Upgrading from 2 to 3 stars.

Overall, this tool will do a good job of letting you know whether any of your cells are bad. If that's all you need to know, then it's is a fine product.

I found, however, that the readings are not consistent enough to provide accurate measurements. Test after test usually ranges plus or minus a graduation (about .025 each).

Previously, I had a complaint that it was difficult to tell if the proper amount of fluid was being used because the meniscus (curvature of the liquid) didn't match with the fill-to line, but was informed that standard practice is to read at the bottom of the meniscus. I may have known that at some point, but certainly forgot about it. So, it turns out I've been using a number of devices incorrectly, but unfortunately with this one the readings are still inconsistent. Regardless, I've found this item to be useful enough that I'll give it a star boost.

This item turned out to be awesome. Given the price, I thought this was going to be made of cruddy construction, but it's actually a quality tool. The bulb does not come off, and is sealed very well. Easy to rinse.

Just remember to use something harder than your finger to tap on the side of the device to eliminate the bubbles during operation.

I had no problems using this. It worked perfectly for me.

Highly recommended.

Black & Decker Smart Battery Charger 25 Amp Fully Automatic With 75 Review

Customer Ratings:

One reviewer said it was complicated. I agree the controls and labels are unintuitive. Not informative in a clear manner. But the operation is pretty simple. A few minutes reading the instructions make sit clear enough. A couple of uses and it all makes sense. This unit can check your alternator, tell you if a battery has an open or shorted cell. It can recondition batteries suffering from sulfanation. It will charge at 25 amps which is faster than many chargers. Plus it can put out 75 amps for a short time to give a quick boost. All in all a good charger for many purposes. I will deduct one star for the non-intuitive design which easily could have been made a non-issue.

I thought I was taking a chance on this product when I found it at a Black and Decker Outlet store in Michigan. I figured mine is getting old and I should get a spare.

However, I soon found that I had gotten very lucky for $40. This tool seems fool-proof (I should know) and does seem to be pretty automatic as stated. As soon as the battery is charged it will reduce the charging amperage on its own. I have not even used all the options yet, but the battery reconditioning function is pretty cool--I've saved one so far that I would have otherwise replaced. Also, the cable storage makes it nice and tidy on the shelf. Remember that to perform a jump-start a car, though, it will only perform the task a few times, then needs four or five minutes to 'recharge' in order to do the jump-start again.

I live on a boat at sea. I've used this charger at least 2,000 times. (Powered by Honda generator) Around the first year the fan went out so I put a cheep fan blowing on it (I think my not having a good "ground" is the culprit fore the fan failure). Around the 4th year the "Charge rate" button became difficult to press so I use a rubber coated piece of something to press that button. After 4+ years of that I fear I may be breaking that button. I have a spare "cave-man" charger, but this charger seems to double the life expectancy of my batteries. (They cost 3X what the charger dose easy.) So now it's been more than 8 years and my fear that button may break compels me to buy a new one (I've owned a dozen different chargers and this one has already lasted many times longer the all the others.)

Conclusion: This charger has a few flaws. But money being no obstacle I'm still going to get another one and my batteries increased longevity compels me to give it a full five stars

Good product. I've used the air pump several times, the hose and connector are more than adequate. The battery charge indicator works great. Having to use an extension cord to charge this product is a minor inconvience. Charging took 2 hours the first time and when I needed to jump my battery 3 days later, I had no problems. And my kids love the USB port, so they can charge their I-Pods while we are camping.

This does NOT have an Air Compressor as stated on the Amazon page. And even if it did I would still return it as it is very complicated. The user manual is a nightmare. There is no easy quick start instructions. Perhaps this is appropriate for a Profession car mechanic. Nothing easy or intuitive about the unit or the manual. This is likely a quality product from B&D, but seems like a collage class is necessary to use the damn thing. I plugged it in, I got a bunch of flashing lights, beeping, and codes on the LED screen. Forget it.

I have only used this charger one time and it seems to charge my cell phone as it should. The reason I didn't use it for a while after I first got it, I did not realize that you had to plug a dongle to the charger in order to make it fit the port on my cell phone. I told my husband that I was really puzzled by this charger because it was suppose to be specifically for an Exalt LG & that was why I bought it. It is so hard to find accessories for this cell phone because it is so new. My husband is the one who discovered the dongle in a separate little package and showed me how to put the charger and the dongle together. So be sure and look for it when you get this charger.

Schumacher BT-100 100 amp Battery Load Tester Reviews

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $58.30
Sale Price: $35.86
Today's Bonus: 38% Off

This device is a carbon pile load tester.

A carbon pile load tester works by applying a calibrated load to the battery (the load is essentially a large carbon resistor that heats up when voltage is applied).

To properly test using this method, the battery must be at least 75% charged. A good battery should be able to supply half its cold cranking amps (CCA) rating for 15 seconds without dropping below 9.5 volts (if you want to test batteries that are not fully charged you'll need to purchase an electronic tester which tests by measuring the internal resistance of the battery.)

IMPORTANT NOTE: This unit (by design) will get hot and might initially produce some smoke if there is any foreign matter on the resistor element.

*** UPDATE: The rocker switch on my unit MELTED rendering the tester useless ***

Click Here For Most Helpful Customer Reviews >>

Remember, this unit is a carbon pile testerin other words, uses a thick carbon resistor to apply a heavy load across the battery terminals to load test the battery. Works flawlessly from the first, and I use this unit daily in my lawnmower shop it is a huge time-saver over "test by elimination" methods, and has successfully tested several dozen batteries and going strong. As long as unit is maintained (keep it clean and in a toolbox where dust won't settle on the carbon resistors) you'll be happy to have this unit in your shop. If you leave it out or splatter oil on it, obviously it will smoke as the debris burns off from the hot carbon pile resistor.

It does not test a discharged battery (but if a 12V battery does not have 12 volts, even after charging, it's obviously bad) but a quick charge from a charger and a quick, very brief load test to burn off surface charge easily lets me know whether to continue charging the battery or condemn it right away.

For a small shop that does not need the advanced features of a resistance circuit computerized battery tester, this unit is well worth the investment. (we use different procedures for charging system testing, depending on the equipment being serviced, so it is not always possible to test these charging systems we work with with an advanced computerized unit, so.. )

Only complaint I have with this unit is the cables are maybe a little short, and quite stiff. It'd be nicer if the cables at least had more flexibility to them, or were about 6 to 10 inches longer some places it is a little clumsy to hook it on to the battery, while holding up the tractor seat at the same time, and other places the battery is slightly recessed. smaller clamps to fit in tight spots, and more flexible cables, and this unit would be *perfection*

Besides checking batteries on my car and truck I have several other deep cycle batteries for RV and other purposes. This unit provides an easy and quick way to know if the batteries are healthy and expected to last awhile. Yes, the tester did smoke slightly during it's first use, but it's expected to 'burn in' when new, like a muffler on a new car. The BT-100 looks and feels like a quality piece of equipment, is handy to have around and a good buy from Amazon.

Honest reviews on Schumacher BT-100 100 amp Battery Load Tester

I purchased one of these from Amazon about a month ago. My issue...I have an on-board battery charger in my bass boat, so I simply plug in from a remote plug and end up not checking/maintaining my three boat batteries as often as I should. So, when I went to use the boat the first time this year, I did check the water level in my starting battery and found it low (below the top of the plates). I had charged it to put away last year, but wasn't sure if I should trust it this year. So I ordered this, followed the instructions to load test the battery, and found it good. Without this, I would have probably just bought a new battery "to be safe". So save one battery. I have also used it to test the JD lawn tractor battery, the battery for my wood splitter, my trolling motor batteries, and both my vehicle batteries. I also keep a couple spare 12v batteries. One tested bad, so I could dispose of that, otherwise I may have just had that sitting around and kept trying to keep it periodically topped off with a 2A trickle charger.

So, I figure it has already paid for itself, and I'm a light user. Now my brother can check his batteries too. Yes, I recommend!

The product performs as advertised. The FM signal is reasonably strong and noise free even while driving in the Washington,D.C. metro area. The only drawback is a bit of an whine either coming from my car's alternator or the IMA system on my 2004 hybrid Honda Civic. Perhaps a more beefier filtering system on the unit would help? However if you crank the music up on the phone it can mostly overcome that whine. I've used this unit in other vehicles that don't have this whine so your mileage may vary.
