bargin, comes with the spade lug bulbs too. The only issue is the
height of the tubes, only about 4 inches off the ground. I like
them up more but these are still fine for most walkways. The heads
even fit 10 year older model posts with the three tabe twist on

(More customer reviews)This item works as
advertised, but it is a modified sine wave inverter.If you are
planning on using it to charge cordless tool batteries---don't.The
owners manual contains a caution about using with cordless tool
chargers (such as Dewalt).Do a quick Internet search on "cordless
tools" and "modified sine wave inverter" to confirm whether your
tool is effected.Some other items that may not work well are
appliances with clocks, microwaves, etc.Be sure you understand the
limitations of a modified sine wave inverter.
For those smaller appliances that will run on modified sine wave,
this item works well.

(More customer reviews)This inverter
powered my MacBook Pro which draws 85 watts using the power plug in
a box truck I rented. The plug tag and inverter label read up to 80
watts while the manual states up to 100 watts for the plug. The
heavier gauge alligator clip cables are for higher wattage
applications or you may blow your power port fuse. The alligator
clips connect directly to the battery. If you permanently hardwire
the inverter buy 6 gauge wire with a 50 amp fuse up to 6 feet long
or 4 gauge wire over 6 feet.Both included cables are 3 feet (91 cm)
long. Remember, Volts x Amps = Watts. The inverter draws 512 watts
when output is 400 watts according to the label.Output is a stepped
modified sine wave and NOT sinusoidal.
When the inverter fan comes on it is noticeable like a radio
between stations at moderate volume (took me some miles before
figuring it was the inverter).The housing stayed cool at 85
watts.
When Black & Decker fixes their dead links the manual may be
available at [..] (search for PI400AB). Lowes and Home Depot were

(More customer reviews)I'm a bit of a
technophile, and gadgets like thin film solar panels really raise
my eyebrows. Aside from the WOW factor, there is the practical
application of the device.
I'm in the Army, and two things are important to me. Portable power
and ease of transport. I have owned Brunton Solar products before,
namely the Solaris 25,and it did a terrific job providing me power
but at the cost of size and limited use for high power consuming
devices. The Brunton Solaris 52 was the answer.
Other solar products tell you that they can charge portable
devices....but how many of them can actually RUN them. The answer
is a resounding zip....zero....nada. The Solaris 52 can power your
device, and provide a trickle charge to other applications. It is
voltage regulated once devices are connected, so while the panels
can produce upwards of 28 volts....it is paired down to 12 volts
for your devices.
The Solaris 52 is about the size of a regular textbook. The folding
cover has a Velcro closed pocket for the three types of cables
provided with the device, and even with those cables in the front
pocket the device presents a minimal profile in your pack. The
panels are applied to a thin type of waterproof canvas. It's a
sturdy material which retains the folding pattern of the panels so
set up an tear down are a snap.
I tested this unit late on an overcast day. I live in Kansas, so I
am not in one of the peak sun belts, and I tested this unit during
one of the coldest months in this region. The panel was completely
unfolded, I connected it to my Solo 15, and even with a
considerable amount of cloud cover the device kicked out the
promised 12 volts of DC. I watched the charged device closely to
see how much tinkering I would have to do to get maximum output
from the panels....the answer...NONE! I was amazed by just how
simple, elegant and effective this device truly turned out to
be.
I continued to run tests with my voltmeter and found that on top of
the steady 12 volts I was able to use the available second power
adaptor port to charge my cellphone at the same time. This
additional flow was no where near what was being drawn by my Solo
15, but it was still more than enough to charge my phone very
quickly.
What Brunton has produced here is an efficient, lightweight and
extremely capable portable power plant that will require no
maintenance from the user due to the self-healing qualities of the
newly developed CIGS cells. All the device needs is a little
cleaning with a cloth every now and then to remove dirt or
debris...that's it!
The price is a little halting for most. I Realize that, but rest
assured you are paying for quality and the assurance that you will
have electricity anywhere you need it as long as the sun is in the
sky. That kind of reassurance is truly worth he price. As the CIGS
technology becomes more mainstream, which it will, expect prices to
drop. Or just be a savvy consumer....I picked my Solaris 52 up here
on Amazon for around $680. A steal in my opinion.

(More customer reviews)This switch is good
looking and very easy to use. The ZIP-set feature is especially
useful if you use it to control outdoor lighting - it calculates
the sunset time and turns on automatically at dusk. No more manual
resets throughout the year. Installation is easy and the
instructions are clear. It switches compact fluorescent (CF)
bulbs.
However read this VERY CAREFULLY before you purchase this switch:
it needs to be connected to a NEUTRAL wire. Many 2-pole light
switches only switch the hot wire of the circuit and you may not be
able to find the necessary neutral wire to connect this. Look into
your junction box to confirm the presence of the neutral wire if
you are replacing and existing switch. If you find only 2 wires of
the same color connected to and around the old switch, you probably
won't be able to swap in this one (or any other CF-capable digital
timer switch) without rewiring the circuit.

(More customer reviews)I bought one of the
Malibu Mosquito Inhibitors and several packs of refills last year
at my local Wal Mart to use when we go camping. I usually place it
on the ground under the small table between our chairs under the
awning. It worked well for us and the smell is much more pleasant
than the old cintronella candles. Also no open flame around our
granchildren.
About a month ago, we were having a problem with the mosquitos in
an outside storage room at work, so I decided to bring it in and
try it. I put it in the center of the room with a fresh refill and
fresh batteries. The smell was pretty strong the first day but it
got rid of the mosquitos, the flies, the moths, and all the other
bugs that we have there. I left it running 24/7. The batteries
lasted two weeks to the day. I changed them and finally had to
changed the refill after 18 days. It still runs 24/7 and will until
the mosquitos die off for the winter.
It worked so well that I wanted to get more refills. Of course WM
doesn't carry them anymore so I came to Amazon.com. I bought three
more Malibu Mosquito Inhibitors and 20 packs of refills. I now have
the one at work, one in my garage, one in my husbands workshop, and
I put one back in the camper.
One thing I have found about the refills is that if you store the
unopened ones upside down so that the liquid is all on top of the
sponge when you open it, it seems to work better. When the smell
starts to fade a little, I take the refill off and flip the sponge
over to get the "juice" back on the top. I keep doing that until
the sponge is completely dry and it makes them last alot longer.
Also if you won't be using it for awhile, take the refill off and
cover it with a piece of foil or stick it in a ziploc bag to keep
it from drying out. Once the refill is opened, you should store it
upright or the "juice" will run out.
Here in Swamp East Missouri (South East Missouri), where we all
thought the mosquito was our State Bird, we love these things!!
