Koolatron 28-Quart Soft-Sided Electric Travel Cooler, Black
My husband drives a truck for 12-16 hours per day. He never stops, so I pack his lunch every day. He carries water, energy drinks, veggies, sandwiches, sometimes pizza, etc. He used a Rubbermaid cooler for a long time, but it was too small. He needed a larger cooler that would fit between the seats of the truck and have more space.
This cooler is HUGE. They make two smaller ones, but since I like to load it up with big ice packs, it's a good size. It'll never actually be full unless we take a trip with it, though. 2 liter bottles stand up in it and I'm guessing that six of them would fit. I load it up with 2 1.5 liter water bottles, a couple of 16 oz lowcarb Monster drinks, plus a sandwich, cherry tomatoes fruit and other snacks and the cooler is still about half full even with the two large blue ice bags.
The Koolatron does the job nicely. It will not cool warm things down well and if left on its own, cold things will start to warm up after 8-10 hours, so I put 2 large blue ice bags in the cooler every morning and they come back at night still partially frozen. Any leftover drinks are still cold.
I also purchased the power inverter so that I could plug in the cooler first thing when I get up. I then load the cooler and the ice bags right before he leaves. That helps considerably.
Is the cooler keeping things at 40*? Doubtful, but it's keeping them cold enough that drinks are refreshing and his food does't spoil. He keeps the AC on in the truck all the time, so the cooler doesn't have to work too hard.
A soft sided cooler like this isn't as effective as a hardsided cooler, so there's a bit of a tradeoff, but it's the largest one I could find that would fit where it needed to go (between the seats of a Peterbilt Daycab after removing the drink holders) and it's lightweight. The shoulder strap makes it easy to carry. By the time I load it down with a couple liters of water, drinks, ice and use the bungee on top for his paperwork, it weighs about 30 pounds or so. A hard cooler would be impossible.
The outside pockets are handy, you can even put ice in the drink holder (which will only hold a cup the diameter of a soda can). There's a mesh pocket in the back that's also very handy.
Overall, we're very pleased with this cooler, but unlike the another reviewer, our expectations were more realistic.Great cooler, just remember to chill your products, and a blue chill block (couple of bucks at wally world etc) helps also. Put a weeks worth of sandwich fixin's in and the stuff was still cold a week later. Easy to transport, and just the right size for one person.

I got this cooler in Late Jan 2011. I took it on a cross country trip even through West Tx, NM and AZ. This cooler kept our items cool and we made sandwiches along the way. I just got back from a trip where I did not have a refrigerator in the hotel room. I took mine in with cream for coffee, cheese and beefstick for late night sandwiches. I plugged it in (with the optional powerpack) and everything was still cold. I added a room temperature soda can on day two and by the time I got home the soda can was cold. I also had cold packs in this refrigerator and they were cold enough to ease sore muscles.I also put all my items in this cooler cold and add an ice pack.
Update,
I just got back from a trip where I was driving all day. I packed my cold items in the cooler and put a pillow of ice on top. The ice pillows I refreeze each night when I am in a hotel that has a freezer. Most days I was driving 10-12 hours. I place the cooler in the back of my SUV and plug it in. I place light colored fabric on top to reduce the solar effect. Most of the driving days were 95-100 degrees. My food arrived cold and some of it was still frozen as I brought frozen food with me to eat at night and the ice pillows were still partially frozen. I will be going to Fl in a couple weeks and will be taking my cooler with me. It is doing a great job for me.

I purchased this cooler along with it's electric adapter. I love it. I've used it in work to keep my lunch cold (the adapter allows you to plug it into an outlet) and it's just like putting my lunch in a refrigerator. You can also plug it into you car's cigarette lighter (which we did on a trip) and that works great also.Want Koolatron 28-Quart Soft-Sided Electric Travel Cooler, Black Discount?
We got this cooler due to its larger size, soft-sidedness, and cooling capability. We have two young kids and we do several family road trips, so we thought it would be a good fit for long journeys, especially keeping juice, milk, string cheese, etc. cool enough throughout the day. While technically the cooler worked, it could have been a lot better, and it really isn't worth the hassles or price for what it delivers.Having read other reviews, here's what I agree with:
There's a difference between refrigeration and "cooling"
The cooler is quite large
Using this cooler did indeed keep items a bit colder than if we hadn't used the cooling function
However, these agreements don't cover the negatives.
While the item fits on the floor in front of the rear seat in our SUV, the fan is awfully noisy, and pushes out a bit of heat.
The durability and construction is questionable, as a few of the zipper pulls broke on its maiden voyage. We ended up using bent paper clips for the rest of the trip.
the side pockets don't offer enough elasticity to allow much more than paper, cards, or possibly a rigid string cheese stick
when testing prior to departure, the cooler struggled to keep the internal temperature below 66 degrees, even though items came from the fridge, and the house thermostat was set at 76.
After two days, the warm exhaust and droning noise in-vehicle were too much, so we unplugged it and used it as a soft-sided conventional cooler for the remainder of our trips. The cooling unit took up interior space, and the odd exterior pockets weren't useful, and the aforementioned zipper issue made using it less satisfactory than if we had picked up a different cooler for half the price (not even including the adapter).
Bottom line: we're hoping to get $15 at our next garage sale for it (including adapter). A bit of a waste.

Zune Car Charger
- Handy car charger for Microsoft Zune media player
- Lets you charge and power Zune while you drive
- Also works seamlessly with Zune FM transmitter
- Plugs into any vehicle's 12-volt cigarette lighter
- Coiled cable curls up for easy storage; 1-year warranty
Noise is probably dependent on vehicles electrical system. I get some low level noise in my '09 Toyota, but not in my Dodge.
I'm going to buy another, because it does work well.A little pricy for a charger and bulkier than I prefer but it does exactly what it is suppose to do with no problems and thats really all I ask for something liek this.Can't say much about this, other than it works great! Doesn't get hot and it charges my Zune very quickly. I use it for both of my devices; the Zune 30gb (brick) and my Zune HD. It's OEM so you know you're getting the legit and I've never had any issues since the day I got it.I use the car charger a lot and it works well. I didn't have any trouble. The product is good.

NOCO Genius GEN3 12V+12V+12V 3-Bank 30 Amp Smart On-Board Waterproof Battery Charger
Buy NOCO Genius GEN3 12V+12V+12V 3-Bank 30 Amp Smart On-Board Waterproof Battery Charger Now
Great product. Easy to install with the three leads to the batteries. No noise or hum in use. Wish I would have had this product before I over charged my batteries in the boat. I hooked this to the old charger leads and it works fine. If I want to super charge the batteries for a short period of time I turn on the old 80 amp charger.This charger is compact, lightweight, easy to install and works as advertised. Amazon beat all other supplier prices by a mile.Want NOCO Genius GEN3 12V+12V+12V 3-Bank 30 Amp Smart On-Board Waterproof Battery Charger Discount?
Not sure how I've done without it. It is awesome! Just plug it in and all three batteries charge at the same time, when one battery is charged it will shut that bank down and continue to charge the others. Great product. Very easy to install, very well made.Thursday, December 26, 2013
Sealed Lead Acid Battery Charger UPG D1724
12V sealed lead-acid batteries of the type used in many house alarms are pretty expensive. Fortunately, they are rechargeable. This charger only costs about 1/4 to 1/3 of the price of a new battery.
I let it charge during a weekend for a total of about 12-16 hours. I don't recommend leaving things like this charging while you're away from home or asleep, just in case.
No more beeping, so it seems to have worked. The charger does NOT have an LED light or other feature to indicate that it is "on" or whether in fact it is "done" charging.

This charger works fine -my only gripe is that I wish it had some sort of indicator light to tell you that it's working, or that it's charging. You know, a red light while the battery is charging, a green light when it's done. Other than that, it's fine.Read Best Reviews of Sealed Lead Acid Battery Charger UPG D1724 Here
This item should be listed as I have, because it will charge only small batteries, (lawn Tractor, or such items) that have loss their charge over a long period, as is common with lead acid batteries.It will maintain batteries that sit idle over the winter, and recharge small like batteries, if the discharge was do to idle periods. If your battery, "dies" after only a few days replace it, as it more than likely has a bad cell(shorted) and you will ruin these chargers, as they will put out the max they can and eventually "burn" up, do to excess heat.They can be used on large batteries that are in good shape,to "Maintain" the charge. Don't confuse these units for a full size battery charger, they charge at 4-10 AMPS, this unit only puts out Milli amps.The thing will need supervision because it is non-descriminatory. It will over-charge your product, but what I like most about it is that it will always deliver voltage. So dead batteries can be charged, a trickle charge battery will only turn on if it senses 60% of the batteries full voltage.Wednesday, August 21, 2013

New 3 Buttons Keyless Remote Key Shell Case For Chrysler Voyager Dodge Dakota Jeep Cherokee No Chip
The rubber portion is an obviously cheaper rubber than the original, and doesn't have feedback on pressing a button as the original rubber does, even after ten years of use. It's unclear how long it will last.
That said, the whole item is less than $7. As others have noted, Chrysler will only replace the entire thing for a ridiculous amount, and apparently won't sell parts. For now, the item seems good enough, and is better than having a missing unlock button or paying ten times as much to replace the whole remote with an original.
Also, as others have noted, none of this reflects on the seller, about whom I have no complaints.The key shell came earlier than I expected and was packaged securely. The product also made it easy to change key fobs. I would recommend to anyone looking for a quick inexpensive change.Just what I wanted, was able to correct an issue with my remote by sending for this shell and putting my old chip board in to. mine was original this was just what wz neededPerfect! All I needed to do was swap the "guts" and I was back in business. Thank again for my product.The clicker works just as good as the cars original equipment and the cost of replacement is next to nothing.

Husky Liners Custom Fit Front and Second Seat Floor Liner Set for Select Toyota Venza Models (Black)
They fit perfectly in my vehicle, and they won't move. The conformal raised edges are the reason why I wanted them so that when you do get water, snow, mud, ect in your car it'll stay on the mat and you can pour it out without it ever touching your carpet.
My problem with them is that they feel cheap. They're just plain injection molded plastic, and they're kinda slick, so they might be slippery. I guess I was expecting them to be made out of rubber. I was expecting a higher quality product for the money I paid, but I know they'll at least do the job.If you are thinking about buying these = do it. I like them so much more than matts. They fit perfectly, look great and are easy to keep clean. Your carpet is completely protected! I only wish these things had been available years ago.Awesome fit and easy installation. The hole for the fuel door was also super easy to cit out with a utility knife.
I have a two and four year old, so u know how that can get. All I do is vacuumed and wipe with a wet microfiber rag and it looks good as new.I have owned Weathertechs before for my Sienna and let me tell you I wish this ones were around when I got those.I am using this ones now on my Venza and I think the price is right, they fit way better and look about the same. Some one here mentioned that the quality of the material is not so good and is true, they feel somewhat thin, but when they lay down on the carpet, it feels good. The sides that protect from spills are way better than weathertech's because they are more rigid and no flimsy. Overall I am very satisfied with this product. Lets see about durability later on...
