3M 16398 PPS SUN GUN Nickel-Cadmium Battery

3M 16398 PPS SUN GUN Nickel-Cadmium Battery3M is a innovator in all kinds of products. I am a certified collision painter . Paint is the first thing a customer looks at when picking up a vehicle. Today's cars and trucks come from plants all over the world and so does the paint that's on them.

That's where the problem comes in , and that's where the 3M Sun Gun is a painter's best tool with today's colors.

All paint company's try to make formulas that will match a color ,but there are a few thousand colors out there.

So , they have what is called alternates and all paint company's supply color deck's with alternate formulas-

examplesdarker ,redder ,finer, lighter , greener, etc. So , as a painter , when a color comes up that has a alternate (most do ) I grab my Sun Gun and use the decks against the car to choose the correct alternate to use as the Sun Gun is the closest thing to natural sunlight.

These guns use up a battery quick when tinting a color ,or going in and out the booth multiple times and you need to have something as close to sunlight to get a good match.

It's good to always have a second and third battery ready to go as these guns do not give you a display of battery life and in the course of a day or half a hour depending on use you may need it.

I do not recommend putting the battery in the charger after each use , drain charge fully.

Husky Liners Custom Fit Second Seat Floor Liner for Select Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra Models (B

Husky Liners Custom Fit Second Seat Floor Liner for Select Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra ModelsThis mat fit like a glove and is great for keeping the dog hair out of the carpet and seats.

Perfect covering for back floor. When the seats are folded up the liners offer coverage over the entire floor. Easy to clean and saves my carpet from the kids and pets.

They are everything they say, fit very well, cover the entire carpet area, don't move. Just disappointed with the material. It's a stiff plastic, rather thin. I was thinking it would be a heavy duty type rubber with flex. I picked this one over the more expensive one (only by like $10 a row) and now regret it. Oh well, they will still protect the carpet.

This fit perfectly in a 2012 Chevy Silverado LT Crew Cab. Easy to install (we did have to trim a bit off the top per instructions). We like that this went all the way under the seats for when we stow things under the seats. Can't beat a lifetime warranty! Would definitely recommend this product!

Delphi MyFi XM2GO Portable XM Satellite Radio Receiver with Home / Car Kits

Delphi MyFi XM2GO Portable XM Satellite Radio Receiver with Home / Car Kits
  • Illuminated six-line LCD shows station, category, and artist information
  • Built-in wireless FM transmitter turns any FM receiver into an XM radio
  • Rechargeable battery provides five hours of use
  • Delivers more than 150 high-quality, XM satellite radio stations
  • Receiver measures 2.8 x 4.5 x 1.2 inches (W x H x D)

I've had my MyFi for a week now and I must say that it has exceeded my expectations. I do live in an urban area where reception is great (DC) but I find that I rarely use the live programming when on the run and just rely on my recorded content.

First what's great about the MyFi:

1) I'm new to satellite radio and was very impressed with the variety of music available. I've discovered lots of artists that while I had my Ipod I never knew existed. Add to that the great live events, talk radio, and other content.

2) XM2Go works flawlessly. But for the limitations (below) it works flawlessly. Pop your MyFi in the cradle at night and in the morning you have 5+ hours of content. Note, the box says 5 hours but in reality if you record any of the more compressed channels (talk etc.) you will end up being able to record more than 5 hours! I believe when I record music channels I actually get closer to 6 hours of recorded content. Once you have your content you can easily scroll from song to song. Skip the ones you don't like. Replay the ones you do.

3) It is truly portable. I go from pocket (headphones), to car (FM transmitter), to home cradle (line-in to the stereo) without ever interrupting listening.

4) It comes with everything you need, including a remote control so you can easily switch channels as your MyFi sits in its cradle across the room (you can't say that about the Ipod). Further, what it comes with is great quality. I love the swivel car cradle not only do you not have to worry about plugging wires into the MyFi everytime you bring it into the car (they are plugged into the cradle), it makes reading the display a breeze for both the driver and the passenger (just swivel it between the two).

5) Replaceable battery. Unlike the Ipod the MyFi, like a cell phone, has a swappable battery. That means you can (eventually) either buy a replacement when the battery starts to lose strengh without conducting the surgery necessary on the Ipod (this is huge given the amount of use these devices get and the liklihood that batteries will only hold their full capacity charge for 6-12 months) or just have one handy to extend your listening time.

6) It's solid state. Unlike the Ipod you don't have to worry about a hard drive to go bad (like mine did in 8 months!)

7) Recording isn't limited to scheduled records. You can always nab a song here or there by just hitting the XM2Go button.

8) It feels solid in your hand. Yeah, it's bigger and heavier than an Ipod (think thick PDA, or perhaps the Dell MP3 player) but it's designed to fit in your hand well and works well for both left (me) and right handed people.

Now the things you should be aware of (though, knowing them I still would buy one):

1) Don't expect non-stop reception when you are roaming around. Even in metro areas you might drop a signal when you aren't using the home or car kits. I imagine it is difficult at best in non-urban areas to maintain a line of sight with the sats. Just expect that you will need to make use of the recorded content in those situations.

2) Don't expect the sound quality of a high-bitrate MP3 on the Ipod. I suspect that this has everything to do with the nature of Sat radio and nothing to do with the MyFi hardware, but, the quality is not the same. Although I would rate it great, you do notice that you are getting a compressed stream.

3) Don't expect to be able to control your content. Unless you save a recording session for days you won't likely get the same songs day to day (the playlists on XM are vast, rarely are there repeats) (notable exception is if you record the top 20 channel). That's a good thing if you like variety that's a bad thing if you like the comfort of always having your favorite tunes handy.

4) The AV cable is a bit short (nothing an extension cord couldn't fix).

5) I would like to see a more sophisticated recording scheduler. Currently you can only schedule 2 record sessions and it limits you to recording within the next 24 hours (unless you schedule a daily recording session). With all of the great XM content it would have been nice to be able to set up a recording session several days into the future.

6) I would like to be able to lock or protect songs or even whole sessions from being recorded over by new recording sessions. Currently, the way it works is just a simple first in first out method. Fortunately, it is smart enough to merely delete a portion of an overwritten section as opposed to the whole section.

7) It doesn't buffer like a TiVo/ReplayTV. It would be nice to pause and/or rewind live content.

8) Fianlly, I would love a computer interface so that that XM can distribute updated software to fix some of the above issues.

This product is great.

Buy Delphi MyFi XM2GO Portable XM Satellite Radio Receiver with Home / Car Kits Now

First let me say that I have only had the MyFi since Christmas (yes, my wife was one of

the people who actually got one). I waited until now to write a review so that I could

get a good feel for the product. Some other reviewers on this page have laid out some of

my pluses and minuses, so I may be reaffirming their comments. First, the great-

1) The programming. XM has tons of stations. I listen to a wide variety of music, and I

was able to fill up the 30 available presets rather quickly. One form of music I

particularily like is techno/trance, and there are 3 channels that play some form of it.

Also, there are 3 comedy channels, and on 2 of them they run segments of stand-up

routines from pretty much any comic out there. Very funny. Also, I paid extra for "High

Voltage", which is the "Opie and Anthony" show. In my opinion, well worth the money.

Plus, XM has all MLB teams, Big Ten Football, and many other extras. I love the

programming.

2) The actual MyFi package itself is wonderful. It comes with 2 holders one for the

car, one for the home which you can plug the antenna, power source, and audio connector

into so that all you have to do to switch from car to home is pull the MyFi out of one

holder and drop it into another. Very easy, very smart. Plus, you get 3 different

mounting options for your car, headphones, a personal antenna for when you are using it

like a walkman, RCA cable for connection to a home stereo, tape adapter for the car,

cigarette lighter adapter, home power adapter, and various cases and clips, plus a remote control. I was

honestly amazed at how much comes with this package.

3) Ease of use. It took me all of about 10 minutes to figure out how to work the menus

and different options on the unit. It is extremely easy to set presets, change displays,

change channels, etc.

4) Recording. This is a truly innovative feature. I have a digital video recorder, and

this works pretty much the same way. You can set up recording schedules, or you can

record whatever you are listening to just by hitting the record button. Very cool.

Also, you can record up to 5 hours of programming, so if you are indoors (where satellite

does not work without external antennas) you can listen to the recording. For me, it is

great because I can record the whole "Opie and Anthony" show and listen to it whenever I

have some free time.

5) This is a small plus, but in this world of huge problems to get anything done, the

activation is very simple. You can log onto XM's website, enter your radio code, cough

up some dough, and within about an hour maximum your radio will be active. It took mine

about 7 minutes to be activated (much like a cell phone).

Now, for some of the not-so-great features

1) First, I have to complain about the audio quality. As another reviewer said, you can

tell it is compressed. Hopefully the XM people are working to resolve this issue, but it

is sort of frustrating. I have a very high quality Onkyo THX certified receiver, and I

can pick up very subtle audio imperfections. I would say the quality is somewhere

between a tape and a CD. Sometimes it almost seems like it is "wavering". The sound

will be amazing for 1/2 a song, and then it will be like a tape for 1/2 the song. I

suspect this has nothing to do with the MyFi itself, but has everything to do with the

stream coming from the satellite. Also, using a tape adapter for the car is pretty

frustrating. I am thinking about having mine hardwired, because using the tape adapter

ensures that the best sound quality you get will be, well, tape.

2) The headphones. What a joke. These could possibly be the worst headphones ever

unleashed on humanity. They suck. The sound quality is a joke, and they are the

in-the-ear style, but they actually cause pain having them in your ears. It is an insult

that they send out this wonderful product with such abominations for headphones. Mine

have already found the garbage.

3) The recording needs a buffering system, as another reviewer said. It would be nice

if it started recording as soon as you tuned into a station, like a DVR, but... I guess

we can't have everything.

4) I am also reaffirming another reviewer's comments, but XM or Delphi or whoever needs

to make the MyFi able to connect to a computer. I find it amazing that in this day and

age we can have such a sophisticated piece of electronics released without the ability to

connect for updates and such. Maybe it is coming.

Lastly, there is the issue of reception. I did not include this in the great or

not-so-great categories because it is neither. I live in a suburb of Cleveland, and I

have had very little reception problems. However, since the stream is coming from a

satellite, I do not think that where you live has anything to do with reception. I think

that some of the reception issues raised in some reviews may be user error, as opposed to

the radio not working. XM is pretty clear about where to put antennas, and if you follow

those guidelines, you should have no problems. Now, that is not to say that the

guidelines aren't kinda dumb. They want you to put the home antenna in a south facing

window with no obstructions to the sky. My stereo is about 45-50 feet from any south

facing window, and the cable on the antenna is only about 25 ft. However, XM is happy to

provide and extension (for a ton of money I assume). I put my antenna in an east facing

window with a house obstructing the sky, and I have had no reception problems, so take

that for what it's worth. In the car, the antenna cable is more than long enough to run

from the front of my Tahoe to the back, out the liftgate, onto the roof, and still have

about 3 extra feet. There is basically no car the antenna can't fit in. It is magnetic,

and it stays put. Reception while traveling around was great about 95% of the time.

However, just like my GPS, when you are in an area that is obstructed by trees or other

objects, the reception fades. It is somewhat annoying that the people in charge of

coming up with this technology couldn't figure out a way for satellites to beam signals

through things. This has always irritated me with my GPS. Maybe in the future.

I realize this is a long review, but I hope it helped. Overall, I wouldn't trade this

for any regular radio. I love it, and I believe the technology and

sound quality can only get better, and it is pretty good right now.

2/10/05 Update Well, I have now had the MyFi for about a month and a half now and I have read some of the VERY negative reviews here, and I feel the need to comment.

First Reception: I have had virtually no problems at all. I have used the MyFi in my car, my home, and as a "walkman". The only time I have had reception issues are when I am in my car and there is very heavy cover blocking the sky. I have used the MyFi almost everyday walking around Cleveland State University and I have never even had one single fade-out. I have even been able to go deep into buildings before the signal fades. Now, according to XM and Delphi, the unit will not work when a roof is over your head, but I have proven that very untrue. I have been able to listen to to the MyFi uninterrupted in a classroom with no windows. This may be a fluke, but take it for what it's worth.

Second Audio I mentioned this in the original review, and there have been many negative reviews about the audio quality. I have noticed, just within the past 2 weeks or so, that the quality has gotten much better. The "wavering" that I talked about is still present, but it is now only there about 25% of the time. I have been very impressed with the sound quality as of late. One reviewer said that talk shows sound like the people are talking into cans attached to a string, and I noticed this as well with "Opie and Anthony". However, both Opie and Anthony have been complaining about this problem, and the problem is coming from the studio that they broadcast from. They routinely complain about this during their program, and I have noticed a better sound lately on their program as well, most likely because O & A had a meeting with the XM engineers.

Overall, I would now give this unit 5 stars, whereas I gave it 4 before because of the audio quality. I do not have any complaints at all. Maybe I am unique in my experience, but I just don't get what any of the negative reviewers are complaining about.

It would have been 5 stars except the personal antenna is awful. I bought a different personal antenna from the XM Fan Store and it works great.

Want Delphi MyFi XM2GO Portable XM Satellite Radio Receiver with Home / Car Kits Discount?

Yesterday, the mailman delivered my long-awaited MyFi. I quickly got it up and running. I then took it to the gym for its first big test. Overall, I like this product. It fits in the hand nicely, the layout is very simple to use, and it certainly comes with a ton of extras. The sound quality is as good as any other satellite radio I've seen.

My problem though is in its portability, which is the main reason I paid for it. First of all, I live in Walnut Creek, CA which is a small town in the San Francisco Bay Area. When I'm not plugged into the home antenna, I get NO reception anywhere. When I went to the gym, I got nothing. I even put on that stupid looking external antenna. Even if it would have worked I don't know if I could have gotten a good workout with two different wires hanging down from me. But, despite that the external antenna has never done anything for me. So, if you are getting this unit and don't live in New York or LA, don't plan on using the live mode much, unless it's plugged into the home antenna. I have not hooked it up to my car yet, so I cannot comment on that aspect of it.

That being said, the only saving grace is the 2go feature. I did record two sessions last night, so now I have 5 hours of songs on it. So, now I can carry it around wherever I want to go. But, you can only record two sessions, so that is only two stations. I would love to be able to switch to news, sports, comedy, or other stations while I'm walking around. But, because of the reception issue I'm stuck with the recorded songs, which ain't bad. I also like how you can record a single song as it comes on the radio, if you like.

So, if you want to buy this thinking it is the long awaited portable satellite live radio solution, you'll be disappointed because you probably are not going to be happy with the reception you can get. But, if you get it realizing it that you'll mostly be using it to listen to recorded songs, you'll be very pleased. I'd recommend it, but I strongly stress waiting for the price to drop, because it's very overpriced right now for what it does.

First things first. This is not intended to be a review of the XM service in general. I had that in my truck for a year before getting the Delphi MyFi, so obviously I was pretty gangbusters about the service. But I've now had the MyFi about 3 weeks, including a two-week trip to Atlanta including air travel, hotels and rental cars, so I've gotten some good mileage out of it so far.

Pros:

Battery: This little beauty has about a 5-hour battery life (conservative estimate, as far as I can tell). This means that even for car trips, taking the dog for a walk, and any normal use, it has enough battery life to last. During our long car ride on the trip, I didn't really need to use the car charger, which was one less wire to hook up. I hate having a gadget that needs lots of random junk hanging off, and the battery capacity really cuts down on that.

FM Modulator: This is one of the major plusses to this little unit. Again, like the above, this means that in the car, you don't have a cassette adapter or wired aux jack. It may cut down slightly on sound quality, but it's still higher than standard broadcast FM radio. In addition, this had a special added benefit in the hotel. Usually a hotel has a clock radio, but not much else. The FM transmitter gave me the ability to broadcast to the clock radio, which was the only way to get tunes in the room.

Accessories: If you've bought the SkyFi, which is the unit I have for the truck, it comes with nothing. You need to buy a car adapter kit, then perhaps a home adapter kit, then worry about installation, and when all is said and done, the $100 SkyFi costs closer to $300 or more. This unit comes with *everything*. Car kit, home kit, headphones, belt clip, protective case, it's all there. Sure, the unit itself costs $350, but for a portable unit that's not bad.

Sound Quality: Again, XM is closer to CD-quality than FM. It won't meet the standards of the audiophiles out there, but it's not bad. I'd place it about as high quality as 128kb bitrate MP3. As long as you have decent satellite or terrestrial reception, the sound is pretty good.

Variety: This, of course, is what separates the MyFi from an iPod. Ever since the RIAA started suing people, I haven't been downloading any MP3's. And without good radio, I don't keep up to date on music anyway, so I wouldn't download music. So, I leave the music programming to professionals. XM has enough stations that unlike local LA radio, there is always something I want to hear, and unlike local LA radio, I don't flip through 6 presets of commercials. The really cool feature is that the name of the artist and song title are displayed on the screen, so I actually know who I'm listening to!

Neutral:

Reception: From what I could tell, reception was great in some areas, and not so good in others. At one of my hotels, I had southern exposure facing Atlanta. Connected to the home kit, I had three bars (of three) on both satellite and terrestrial antennas. Yet at my hotel in Montgomery, AL, I didn't get any reception. There were no terrestrial antennas in Montgomery, and my room didn't face south. Likewise, in my apartment here in California I have a lot of restriction as to where the antenna is placed to get reception. In the car, the reception is pretty much uniformly good. During most of my trip, I had the external antenna up on the dash, and got great reception. I've found from installing the car-specific antenna in my wife's car that this is even better, but once that is installed and the wire routed, it is something you don't want to remove. In the car, though, using the standard personal antenna is fine. Walking around, however, the reception can be spotty. While this is intended as a portable device, it doesn't 100% live up to its billing. I put this as neutral rather than a con, though, because in most situations it meets my needs.

Stored Content: The MyFi has the ability to store 5 hours of music content. It is billed as a major feature, but after the above reception issues, I believe it is added as a crutch because of some of the reception issues. That being said, if they had implemented the record feature better, it would easily have moved up to a pro for this unit. The main problem is twofold. First, the XM SkyFi2 buffers content, so that if you're listening to a song and want to pause/replay the song, you can do so. This is not available as a feature on the MyFi. Second, it has two recording slots, each with a 2 1/2 hour maximum. You cannot schedule it to record 5 1-hour slots on 5 different channels. You can't schedule it to record a 3 1/2 football game on one channel, followed by a 1 1/2 hour program on a second channel. I think that purely from a software programming standpoint, they could have fixed this easily. Last, I it needs to be in the home kit to record. I'd prefer that it be able to record easily on-the-go, so that if I wanted to leave it in a car overnight recording, I could do so. Alas, no such luck. However, even with all these problems, the record feature is a plus when traveling. I got no reception on an airplane, and the saved content was a lifesaver when I needed something to listen to.

Cons:

Antenna Compatibility: The personal antenna plugs right into the side of the unit. The car and the home antenna, however, don't. They don't plug into the unit at all. They plug into the car or home kit. I didn't think this would be too much of a problem, but in my wife's car, the optimal place to put this unit is in the cupholder. If the car antenna plugged directly in, I could do so. However, the car antenna only plugs into the car docking station. Which doesn't fit into the cupholder. If the antennas were interchangeable, it would be helpful.

Conclusion:

All in all, if I had to do it all over again, I would still buy this unit. I had read the Amazon reviews, and the reception exceeded the limited expecations they had given me. The ease of use for car usage makes it simple to take in and out of the car, and since I already have XM in my truck, my wife might start getting some use out of the XM as well. I've said before that I'm not a major gadget guy, and I usually look for gadgets that will improve my life, rather than just buying gadgets to own them. The Delphi MyFi meets that criteria.

Superwinch 1145230 Terra 45 4500lbs/2046kg single line pull with hawse, handlebar mnt toggle, handh

Superwinch 1145230 Terra 45 4500lbs/2046kg single line pull with hawse, handlebar mnt toggle, handheld remote, and synthetic ropeworks well, but rocker switch is set up for an ATV only, will not mount to the dash of my side-by-side. would be perfect if it had some kind of adaptor for this problem. very quiet while running. used an electrical wire shrinkwrap on the end of the rope to make it small enough to go through the drum, this made it a whole lot easier

I made a mount and set it up on my grizzly. I can't find a hole I can't get out of. I can't stop this thing it will pull me out without giving it any gas. I ride alot of water and no problems yet

Having Super winch products prior & trusting their name..

Review will be for installation only...hopefully I will be able to give a better rating on actual product use...a mechanically inclined friend of mine helped with the installation...right from the get go...there were issues...very poorly laid out installation instructions...bolts supplied were barely adequate...info on installing synthetic rope were non existant....once completely installed..the winch is mounted securely on the machine's frame..having two operation switches is handy...remote cord connection mounted in glove box along with remote cord & handle...as mentioned review is for installation only..giving it a one star rating...hopefully the unit performs as advertised because I wouldn't want it to let me down in Utah's back country...

winch works fine. Install instructions are messed up. Wire colors and location are wrong. Seems to be a good product resonably priced. Shipped in good time.

I can't comment on the longevity of the unit, having just finished installing and testing, but everything went together as it should and I was, overall and considering the price, impressed with the quality of the items in the package with the winch...with two exceptions. The circuit breaker assembly is all metal with no stock way to bolt it to something solid (which usually means metallic), so the intended installation method appears to be to connect it to the hot wires and anchor it by tie-wrapping the wiring, with the breaker wrapped up in foam or tape so that it doesn't short on something metallic. That was unacceptable to me, so I used an inexpensive plastic encased circuit breaker intended for bolted mounting to metal (you can buy them on Amazon). The installation manual is also poorly written, but if you understand how a solenoid works the installation is straightforward. I've read some reviews that said that the winch was "too complicated" to install. That really is not the case. A bit of reading on the web to learn how a solenoid works is required a solenoid is just an electrically operated switch. Learning that will allow the installer to jury-rig a fix in the field or to make any modifications to the Superwinch installation instructions that they want to incorporate (like in my case not installing the handlebar mounted rocker switch, wiring the winch such that it will operate without the ignition to the UTV being turned on, swapping two wires so that the winch turns in the correct direction when the handheld remote button IN button is pushed). The other option to greatly simplify the required wiring is to purchase a winch with an integrated solenoid, like the WARN 93700 3700 DC Winch basically it just requires a positive and negative wire from the battery to the winch. Unfortunately, at least at the time of the writing of this review there were no winches to be found anywhere of about the size of the Terra 45, with synthetic line and an integrated solenoid. If you want to mount the Terra 45 in a removable 2" hitch receiver, I recommend that you read my review of the 2" Receiver KFI Winch Mount

Pulse Tech Battery Maintenance System 100X010

Pulse Tech Battery Maintenance System 100X010Its a true delight to get to write such a positive report. This charger will charge/desulfate/ and maintain any 12 battery from gel cell jump packs, to AGM spiral cells, to car, truck and RV batteries and will actually restore them to a higher capacity as well as make them last much longer. For 24 volt applications you can use two of these chargers. I run a battery shop for a large maintenance facility and since we started using these products several years ago, we continue to save thousands of dollars every month using Pulse Tech chargers (bigger commercial units using the same technology). This is the only charger I have found that actually breaks up the lead sulfate crystals -which form on the lead plates when a battery sits at a less than full charged state. (All lead acid batteries do this). Its these deposits of lead sulfate crystals that keeps the battery from delivering current and excepting a full charge. I have 3 of these chargers at homethey come in different colors (red, yellow, green and blue and a dual charger version). They are all electronically the same so buy the cheapest one you find.

In a world where things claim to "work better" or "make things last longer"this is the rare exception where the product actually does what it says and does it well. These results can be fully verified though empirical testing. Used regularly you should expect to easily get 6-10 years out of a battery rather than the often normal 2-4 years. This will quickly pay for the charger. I cycle it through all our batteries (at home) 3 or 4 times a year to keep them charged, de-sulfated and ultimately lasting longer. If you have access to a battery conductance tester (found in large automotive shops) which tests batteries for capacity and cranking amps, you can test a battery and then go use this pulse tech charger. You can then measure how it restores the battery to a previous higher capacity. It will often bring back a really weak battery to fully operation status allowing you to get a couple more years of use out of it. Its rare that I am able to recommend a product so hardily, but it works well and you will be happy with not having to buy replacement batteries for your equipment so often.

I've used this product for several years now and it's the best charger I've ever owned. I originally bought it to maintain my motorcycle battery. I use my motorcycle mostly for track days now so I don't ride it as often as when I commuted on it. Because of this, I had to replace a very expensive AGM battery. Rather than having to replace expensive batteries, I put my bike on a trickle chager. Originally I tried to get away with a cheaper type. I used a battery tender junior (which I bought from amazon). It died after a day of use. I figured it was defective and I had it replaced. It also died. Given the rock solid ratings and review, I figured, I must have done something wrong. I talked to their customer service and on my 3rd try on that charger had it "maintain" a new battery with a full charge. It also died. I gave up after that and switched to this charger.

This charger has worked flawlessly over the past few years. The indicator lights give me all the information I need regarding the health of my battery. It doesn't overcharge the battery or reduce battery life. I now use it also on my deep cycle batteries on my boat (3 of them). I basically cycle this charger and move it from battery to battery every few weeks. I've used this thing non-stop for at least 2-3 years now. It is also water-resistant (proof?), and I have no problem leaving charging my boat even if it's raining outside. It also doesn't get hot at all like many other chargers.

The only drawback to this unit is is $100 bucks vs. $25 for other chargers. However, I personally believe it's well worth the money.

If you check the specs, all the models are the same charge capacity, except for color of plastic and labeling. So buy the cheaper one! Have two differant ones, and both identical ratings, and charge the same in real time.

I purchased the Pulse Tech charger after much online research into this technology and even some discussions with the company since they are local to my area in N. Texas. What I think I discovered from my research is that the pulse technology is best suited for new batteries rather than reclaiming old and sulfated batteries. This technology seems to prevent the sulfate from forming on the plates. I installed the charger/maintainer on a brand new 100 Ah marine battery. On start-up, it showed 50% charge level and began it's charging/pulsing cycle. The maximum charge current is 2.5 amps, so it took 24 hours for the battery to reach 100% charge. At 100% the Pulse Tech charger switched to maintenance mode. That consists of no charge current, but the anti-sulfation pulses remain active.

As with any device of this type, it can only get glowing reviews if it works. With the promise of pulse charging extending the life of batteries for 4-6 years and beyond. This review will be very stale by the time I can report back on the devices complete success. However, as a battery low-current maintainer with high tech properties, It seems to be a well-made and easy to use device. I give it 4-stars for now with the possibility of getting that extra star when it shows it's usefulness 4 to 5 years hence. Because of it's ease of use, great function, and feedback via lights, I still rate it highly and can cautiously recommend it to others. I do recommend it as an addition to new batteries or ones that are still performing near 100%. Preventing sulfation seems to be a better solution than removing it after the fact.

this brought a dead sulfated battery back to life that a 2/10/50 amp charger set on 2 amps for 2 weeks and still wouldn't start the car.(Battery was left hooked up in a truck by my neighbor and wasn't started for 2ish years). It just wouldn't take a charge so I pulled the battery and sat it in the garage corner with this pulsetech thing on it for 3 weeks or so. It came back to 75 percent on the indicator and wouldn't go higher so I put it in and it has started an F150 v8 fine for the past 5 months. This thing paid for itself just saving 1 battery. i used it on my skidtsteer and tractor and it definitely perked up those older batteries as well compared to the trickle charger that i usually leave on them. Also brought back a 6yr old marginal battery in a hyundai that was barely turning over and after 2 days cahrging with this on is starting normally 2 months later. I'm happy.

I ordered two, one for each vehicle. One worked better than the other. We had to switch batteries multiple times in order to function on a trip.

Have had some trouble getting the device to work because no instructions were included and have tried to contact the importer thru Amazon and haven't been able to get a resolution to this problem.

Works great inside parking garages, but static in open areas. Works better on thriving stations than lower stations. It's ok.. doesn't work all the time. If you looking to use it constantly, I wouldn't suggest it because of how it works for me. I had a similar one before that I loved and thought it would be like that, but no.

Husky Liners Custom Fit Second Seat Floor Liner for Select Mercury/Ford ModelsI absolutely love these mats. They are probably hands down the best purchase i made for my car.

I would recommend these to anyone. And will be purchasing these for the other vehicles as well.
