I have a 1kw system on the roof. This Charge controller is able to handle the capsids with out a problem. I like that it is 12v or 24v, The wire connection point are well insolated and easy to use. I have not had to retighten them like I have had to do with other products. The display shows the battery power when connected. The back light is nice but uses a lot of battery life at night. To me having the light on is not worth the energy that it uses, again the display is easy to read with the light off. The real question is would I buy another one? Yes. It is a nice unit that has flexibility and gives the user options while setting up the solar system.

I have ordered several of these units. This unit arrived in a plastic sandwich bag and the white case was badly sun yellowed and scratched up.

It really gets old eating fast food while out on the road.I'm a trucker and thats all they have in most travel centers.On Christmas my girlfriend got me this,and its the best gift I could have gotten.This is a tackle box stove, and its mainly a food warmer.This will get pretty hot also,and after plugged in for only 10 minutes the bottom plate has plenty of heat.I can pull into a rest area,throw some hot pockets or burritos in it.Then head down the road and then pull over and have lunch in about an hour.This stove saves me a whole lot of money as well,as i really don't have a need to eat out when I'm on the road.In the morning i can put some sausage biscuits in it and in 30 min. there piping hot.As for dinner i can warm up leftover pizza,lasagna,soups, or pretty much any frozen food and it comes out great.If theres any negative thing to this stove,I'm not sure what it would be.Its prefect for a someone running solo or a team.So if you want to eat healthier on the road or just to be able to bring some real good food with you,this would be the item to have.

UPDATE 4/11I need to to let people know i am still enjoying my stove.I'm able to pull over put my food in my stove,and about an hour later its done.I was getting burned out on hotpockets,so found other great things to cook.miniature pizzas for 45 min.(butches pizza) work great in this,you might need to trim it though.Chicken wings for 60 min.(walgreens premade)work great in this too,and a nice treat for me.campbells chucky soups for 60-90 min. using loaf pans lined with foil,our great to have as well.I like the clam chowder & chicken gumbo sausage soups.BBQ sandwiches work great in this too,i buy lloyds premade pork for 45 min.,and a package of buns and i'm set for the week.Mozzarella sticks & cheddar poppers for 45 min.our a nice treat as well.This stove really saves me a whole lot of money and being a long distance trucker,it gives me a chance to have something decent when i'm gone.

I want o start by saying the image shown doesn't really look like the Roadpro I got, the one pictured looks cheaply made and flimsy. The one I got looks much better built. Also there are no tins, not a big deal as I had some already (and I recommend getting some they will be handy)

That said this thing is awesome! I pre-made a few breakfast burritos to heat up while we were out in the Mts on a day trip. I got out my little stove to give it a try, grabbed my burrito out of the ice chest and about 10mins later had a hot meal and I do mean hot! This thing definitely lives up to the 300 degrees.

Two things to note:

1. The bottom of the stove gets fairly warm. I only had it on for 15-20mins at a time so I can't say how hot it would get but it was hot enough I took notice.

2. I felt the need to flip my burritos as it heated more on the bottom than the top. Stacking two to three didn't work well either. There was plenty of room but the ones on top didn't get hot, they might have got a little warmer but not much.

I'm a Letter Carrier for the US Postal Service here in Alaska. My route does not afford any stores or restraunts on it. I saw this and read most of the feed back, I thought it was a good idea.

Now the aluminum pans they talk about are fine, but you have to put food in them and seal the top with foil. You have to throw them away after eating. If your not careful, the bottom may burn if you don't cover it.

I have found a way, if your a regular user of this item to save money in the long run. I bought on Amazon, stainless steel bread loaf pans that met the measurements of the aluminum pans. I had to use my shop grinder to take about 75% of the lip off of them so they would not interfere with the rubber seal that goes around the unit. They are perfect now!

I put in about 4 ounces of water, set the pan in that's covered tightly with foil. About 30-40 minutes before I stop, I plug it in. Simple.

Example, fried potatoes and scrambled eggs, packed tightly into the pan, clear full. Refrigerated overnight, put into the RoadPro when I got to work with the lid closed. It was cold clear thru when I turned on the oven. I was surprised it heated that cold thing right through in 35 minutes.....! I have not expermented with frozen stuff yet, but I will have to try it soon.

All I can say, is if you have a pan wrapped in foil, the water starts to boil in 15 minutes, you see some puffs of steam, but don't open it. You'll have a very hot meal soon.

*** Just don't let it slide or tip. I move over curbs and big bumps all the time, as long as it's secured to one spot, you won't have a problem.***

Hope this helps!

Honest reviews on RoadPro 12-Volt Portable Stove, Black

I work for the Fire Department Emergency Medical Services and always find it very difficult to have lunch since we are not given a lunch break. So, now I can just heat up my food while working and have a nice hot home made meal as soon as I have a chance instead of waiting for take out fast food. Trust me that now in this difficult times 911 is very busy and sometimes we dont even make it to a fast food restaurant. So its also a very smart way to save money for those of us working on the road.

It was so nice to have a hot meal on the outing. Beware, it draws a little over 12 amps and most car accessories are fused at 6 or 8 amps (at least the ones I've seen). I custom built my Accessory line and made it heavy duty for a 20 amp service so I was OK from the start. The unit says it runs at 144 Watts, and my ammeter agreed (12V X 12A =144W). Definately use the foil trays and consider using extra foil in those trays to cover whatever you have in them to keep it from spilling if the stove gets knocked around at all.

The items in the bottom of the tray were scorched (hot dogs) the first time I used the stove, and they were really hot after about 1/2 hour or so. The second day I added some water into the bottom of the stove (under the tray) and it was perfect...no scorching, and still really hot. I can hardly wait to try it again and come up with different things to heat up.

You can spend 3 or 4 times the price easily on getting power to your tank bag. I go touring annually so this does not get daily use but does get beaten up over a two week period. The product is a little cheap feeling but hey it is cheap. Charging through 3 lighter connections and 2 USBs you will never run out of space. I would recommend this and I will replace it 3 or 4 times before spending more on the other brands.

Everydaysource Compatible With Samsung© Galaxy S III / S3 - USB Reviews

Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars

I bought 2 of these, one for my Samsung Galaxy S3, and one for my wife's LG Optimus Black. Don't get me wrong, the product is pretty cool, and the cable being retractable is a great feature, as you don't have wires all around your car. But a problem I found is that when I'm using it with my Galaxy S3, the battery drain is faster than the charging. This means that the amperage output of the charger is not enough to keep up with the normal discharge when using the phone as a GPS, or even to check Facebook in a parking lot or in the red lights.

I read some forums which say that this phone needs a charger with a 1 Amp output to be able to get charged while using it in the car. I did some research on this charger, and could not find the output it's generating. I even contacted the manufacturer , to ask them about this product, but didn't get a reply.

So, the charger works very well on smaller phones which don't require a high amperage to get charged, but the Galaxy S3 just drains the battery too fast when in use, so this charger is not good for it.

This charger is so compact that it's easy for me to put it in my purse and have it handy in my car or my husband's car. It was a good price and arrived quicker than the company promised. I'm happy with every aspect of this transaction.

This was a great purchase. We have gone through about 4 "cheap" chargers for our Samsung Galaxy S3, but finally found this one. The retractable cord is perfect and very useful. It has the perfect amount of give and seems like it will stand up to daily use. Great product and we would definitely recommend it to anyone wanting a well priced charger.

Why did I knock off one star? Because it took me about 15 minutes to get the little covers on the earbuds and another 30 to figure out how to set up the belt clip. I still haven't figured out how the key chain fits into the scheme of things. BUT, those "complaints" aside, this is a great little bundle of goodies for your Fuze+. Charging from wall, computer, or car a cute little rechargeable speaker, an audio cable to connect it to your car radio (and other setups as well). The screen protector came with a cut in the packaging, so I was concerned, but nothing inside was affected, and the cut actually made it easier to open the package. The screen protector itself comes with pretty good instructions unlike anything else in the package. Personally, I'd love to see a little "bag" included to keep everything together for traveling. A quart-sized zipper bag holds it all very nicely, so I'm set. All in all, I really like this package.

You get what you pay for i guess... when I first plugged it in it makes a high pich tone, which is very annoying. I found that if I used batteries instead of the car charger adapter, the sound went away, this worked for about a week, then the sound came back, just before the thing crapped out completely.

The way I figure it this $7 transmitter laster 7 days. At $1 per day, I know I can spend $30 and get one that will last more than a month (probably years), so that is what I'm going to do.

I see a lot of complaints here, but I really don't know why. This product is definitely worth the buy and it is really cheap. I've been through a lot of FM Transmitters and this $5 product is the best! Little to no static. I've had an expensive Griffin iTrip FM Transmitter and that was garbage compared to this. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about. This product is more than worth it.

I got this device for my wife to use in her car for her phone. It is working fine and better then not having one. The one little issue is that in our area (city) the channels that this uses to transmit on is used so in some spots the music from the radio slips through while she is listening to her phone.

This FM transmitter worked great for me out in the country, when there are few radio stations that interview but when I'm in cities it usually got a lot of static and was not as useable. The wire got a short in it after using it about every other day for 3 months, but hey, it's inexpensive and great way to hear your device through speakers if you don't have an AV input in your car.
