Taylor Cable 48100 Aluminum Battery Box and Hold Down Component

The battery box is very good. The quality is top notch and the install was quite smooth. I would most certainly purchase one again.

If I had to pick out cons, they would be as follows:

* Thicker gauge aluminum would be cool. Not necessary but I wouldn't mind it.

* The battery hold down could stand to be a little wider only because my battery needed a bit of convincing to get in on there.

Overall I am very pleased with the box and it is working out great in my project car.

GreatShield Flex Grip Lightweight Windshield Dashboard Universal Car Mount Holder for Cell Phones a

I needed something cheap to mount my cellphone to the windshield. I have one of the biggest phone in the market, the Samsung Note which has a 5.3" screen on it. This unit is able to support my phone with no problem. It has a locking wheel that locks the mount to the windshield and it worked really well. It worked so well that I had trouble removing it the first time I tested it on the window.

This holder was nice and compact. Pad came off the dashboard a few times, but that could have been fixed with some adhesive.

The major problem was that within 2 to 3 weeks, the holder became "frozen" in position and could no longer be rotated or the angle changed. An attempt to change the angle (with only mild pressure) caused the holder to snap into two pieces, just below the ball joint.

(NOTE: This review was written 2 months after I bought it. Then updated 3 months after I bought it)

This is a great clip. I use it for my 5" navigator.

It has one arm of the clip side that is spring loaded. It can be a little difficult with mounting it one handed, but I do it. I take my device and push up the arm (spring loaded), then fit my device in, and then release. To take it out, you could just yank it out, but that will probably wear the rubber grips on the side.

The mount has a twist on for the bottom side suction cup. Typically for windshield mounting. You put the base toward your windshield or flat mounted base (provided), and then rotate the base to create a suction seal to hold it in place.

The mount that is provided is about the size of the circular base on the holster. Use this mount if you want to mount to a dash or some other location (not windshield) that is flat (or near flat), and will not be a good source for a suction cup mounting. Like dash boards with that vinyl coating on top.

The round plastic mount (what they are calling a pedestal) has a sticker on back, but it also has 3 tiny mounting holes, to screw it into place. It does not come with the mounting screws. Uses size 4 screws for this option. Use mounting screws with the sticker on back if you want to have more mounting strength than just the sticky back. (I don't trust sticky back products in the car. The high heat in summer always melts the glue away.) I used the 3 holes and screwed it into the dash, so you might be aware of that option.

The great thing is that the holster (as the picture shows) can go on and come off very easily with the twist of the base. The suction is released. The plastic mount (bracket) stays in place always. But this gives you the option to switch to mounting on windshield too.

It is very adjustable in angles. Rotates 0, 15, 30, 45, etc up to 360 degrees. (OK... maybe not exactly 15 degree increments, but it clicks to various angles). I haven't been moving it around much, so I'm not sure the wear and tear on the joints.

I don't have the dimension of the round mounting plate (pedestal), but it's about 2" in diameter. And about 1/16" thick.

For the price, I don't think you'll find a better product with this much flexibility. I certainly have enjoyed mine for the past 2 months.

---UPDATE-------OK... 3 months now, after I have it... and it's broken!

The little plastic (and I emphasize... plastic) arm that attaches to the rotating ball just snapped.

I understand why too. It takes the most stress when you need to move the holder around.

The rotating ball (that allows the clamp to rotate) has a tendency to get sticky and gets stuck in place.

The plastic arm then takes a large force to 'crack' the seal of the rotating ball.

And THIS WILL happen, when you need to change the angle of your device.

YOU DO GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. I'M NOT BUYING AGAIN. FOR THE PRICE OF 3 OF THESE, I'M SURE I'LL GET A BETTER LONGER LASTING ONE.

I DON'T NEED TO KEEP REPLACING EVERY 3 MONTHS!!!

This unit was reasonably priced and delivered ontime however it is a bit too weak to hold the Galxy S3. When you hit a bump the phone spins around. Pretty iritating when you need to keep repositioning the phone as you are driving trying to check traffic conditions through google maps. In addition the arm that hold the device need some type of edge to hold in the phone better. The rubber that covers them onbt he inside does not hold the phone very well.

• 1920x1080P FULL HD high quality resolution
• Advanced H.264 video compression technology
• Support HDMI high quality video transmission
• 5 resolution forms can be changed for video recording.

I bought this to record my driving just in the case I get ticketed for an offense I did not commit. Very easy to setup, and the suction cup sticks very strongly to the windshield. It comes off also with very little effort.

I used this for 2 weeks and the video was very good. You can mute the sound if not, it will record everything you talk in the car so be careful what you say with this one recording :)

I returned this product after 2-3 weeks for 1 reason: I park my car outside, and do not want to take a chance of some burglar breaking my windshield to steal this I had to remove it every night before I go to bed, but it is too hard to remember every night. Hence I returned it.

If you are someone that parks the car inside the garage, or does not worry about someone stealing electronics from your car, I strongly advise buying this.

** There is no GPS nor speed sensor in this. Just records the video **

Cobra CPI 880 800 Watt 12 Volt DC to 120 Volt AC Power Inverter with 5 Volt USB output

• 800 W Continuous Power Handling
• 5v USB output
• 2 Grounded AC Receptacles
• Thermal Shutdown and Reverse Polarity Protection

Got this to put in my little RV. I was looking for something small enough to not draw down

the one battery I have in the Coach. Installed under a cabinet close to the battery and

ran 10 ga wire to it. Plug in the Coach electrical cord to it and turned it on. It will

run a Radio or TV or the Microwave or the Fan in my A/C but not the A/C itself which would

take about a 3000 watt inverter which would drain my battery really fast! I watched TV and

listened to the radio for 2 days and finally ran the battery down running the A/C fan on the

second day. It's a little workhorse. Good for the price too!

Bought this for tailgating at Buffet. I was actually able to hook it up to a lawn tractor battery and power a blender. I wasn't sure if the battery would have enough juice, but it worked great and was much easier to transport than a car or marine battery. Testing at home showed the low voltage alarms and whatnot work very well. I just wish this came with a cigarette lighter cord for those times you're just using it on low-amp devices the way some other inverters do. Also, I agree with some other reviews that the mounting tab locations look like they would make getting the screws in there difficult. I haven't tried mounting it, but the edges of the case definitely would get in the way. Creative DIYers would find a way to make it work, so no big deal.

The first one died within about 6 weeks. That is not a good sign... but Cobra made good and sent me a new one which has been working flawlessly for > year. I like this unit because the fan is active, not passive. So if you are using it to, say, charge a phone or run a laptop with a charged battery, (e.g. not much current draw) the fan stays off. As a noise-freak, that makes me happy. The power rating seems realistic, unlike two other units I tried. I'm quite happy with it, minus the dead original of course.

mine works great. i don't use the wires that it comes with. they are short and thin. i modified my old jumper cables to use with it. i cut the clamps off of one end and permanently attached that to the inverter. now i have big clamps with 12 foot wires for a little more flexibility. i have used it for camping to make coffee and it worked great. i have also hooked up various power tools and those fired right up. (power drill, circ saw). i had my truck running while i was using it only because i was nervous about killing my battery. (we camp out in the middle of nowhere). it's a good little tool, i would recommend it.

This works great. Hooked it up to the clamps of my portable jump starter (just to test it out) and it ran a box fan high. Than I tried my desktop which is a gaming computer I built. Q6600 quad core overclocked to 3.4ghz 3x500gb raid 0 and 2x1.5tb hard drives. Geforce 8800 superclocked. Its 4 years old give me a break. It ran my desktop from start up to gaming and it was also running my monitor too. After 10 min or so the low voltage alarm came on but remember I was testing it with a portable jumpstarter that wasn't even fully charged. All in all its great. Its sitting in my car next to my amp so I can connect it to my amps power connection when I need to run something big.

AAMP of America Soundquest SQK0 CCA 1/0 Gauge Wiring Kit

• 1/0 Gauge Power and Grounding Wires
• Remote Wire, Speaker wire, and RCA Signal Wires
• Fuse Block and Fuse
• Various crimp style connectors

I purchased this amp kit about a month ago for my Rockford T8002 sub amp. I actually read all of the other reviews after I purchased the kit, thank God for that too. I might not have bought it if I had read them first. That would have been a shame, because this is actually a very good kit as far as kits go. Especially considering the price. The kit had everything you need from loom to zip ties to crimp connectors, everything. I read the other reviews about the crimp connectors and I keep reading things such as hammer and vice grips and pliers. These are CRIMP connectors, hello. Use crimpers, crimp pliers. I didn't even use my large crimpers, I used my regular Klein crimpers. The crimp fittings went right on and crimped right onto the wire, solid and stable by the way. The wire, which I keep hearing so much about, is indeed 0 or 1/0 cable size by the AWG code. The problem here is we have all been spoiled to companies over sizing their cable. I read one company, not naming any names, they had three different size and capacity 1/0 cable. Sorry folks, but if it is larger than .3249" in diameter it is no longer officially 1/0, but it is a larger guage. The RCA cable is well made, nothing extravagant, but it gets the job done and done well. Someone actually made a reference to the remote lead not being very large in relation to the other cables especially the power wire. They have absolutely NOTHING to do with each other. The remote lead usually connects to a TL494CN pulse width modulator chip which requires maybe three electrons to turn on. (That was a joke by the way.) I have never seen a remote lead correctly wired conduct more than 500mA. The wire included will have no problem with that current flow. I am sorry but for less than $40 this kit gets a 5 star rating. No, it isn't an Esoteric Ultra Flow kit, but then again, it didn't cost $120 either. In the end, this kit gets the job done!!

I ordered this amp kit with a Load of doubt's. A 0 awg kit being cca and actually perform to even close to my expectations. I like the gravel around my sub woofer box was blown away. I could not believe the power and ground wire. I swear It looks like a rope you would expect to see hanging in a tree over a lake for a swing. I used this to hook up a boss nxd 4500 watt onyx mono block amp. Let me tell you something,this may or may not be true 0 awg but i had to wrap the end around and sweet talk it into the big holes for the power and ground with out any casing near the opening. The fuse holder is meh,but those are cheap to moderately expensive depending on what you want.

The remote wire leaves something to be desired,even for 18 gauge it was very fragile but if your nice with it,it will do just fine.

The terminal ends if you dont have the proper crimp tool is a nightmare,if you dont have the money for a crimp tool use a soldier gun and proper soldier and you will be fine.

I did not use the battery connect as i have side post so i cant comment on it's function but it looks decent.

All I can add is that for a 40 dollar 0 gauge kit,this is a hot item. It's Not a world renown name,it is a cca kit,and it is in my opinion a great kit for the every day driver install,but most likely not a good kit for competition style amps/subs

Pretty decent products and do what they are supposed to do. I am glad I looked around before getting the same stuff from Sony which could have set me back more than $100 easy. I have taken them around on a few business trips and haven't had a problem. If I had more disposable income, I would probably buy the official accessories with nice design and logo, but for now these do the trick.

I love Sony Products and I will purchase Sony Products again. The player conked out

on me after two weeks of use while it was playing I heard this loud popping sound

and the player never played again.

I never saw the screen because it was just a faint picture , since I had it for the

music to aid me in my walking I could pass on that. The sound was beautiful and I

really enjoyed the two weeks of use.

The company refunded my entire cost in a quick way. I would get another one and give

Sony a second change.

IOGEAR Solar Bluetooth Hands-Free Car Kit GBHFK231 (Black)

I was looking for a bluetooth speaker unit to replace an old Motorola headset. I was tired of always charging the headset and I rarely used it outside of the car, so when I found this car kit I thought it would be perfect. It uses a standard micro USB port to charge (the same as my phone) which is handy, and the solar panel idea made a lot of sense. I charged the unit initially using USB, and then stuck it on my windshield below the tinted area at the top, sort of behind my rear view mirror. It's small enough that it is discreet; the controls are simple and easy to use.

Pairing my phone was very easy and it has had no problems connecting each time since then. Incoming sound quality is good and the speaker is plenty loud. People I talk to also report that I sound clear on their end, so I think the noise cancellation works well.

As far as the effectiveness of the solar charging, it seems to be working although it's hard to say I've only had it for two weeks. After the initial USB charge, I haven't had to charge the unit again via USB in that time. We've only had a few sunny days lately, but it does seem like the unit must be getting some power from the solar panel; I always use Bluetooth for my daily commute and I have yet to receive a low battery warning. Of course, your mileage may vary depending on the amount of actual talking you do while in the car.

Overall, I've found this car kit to fit my needs extremely well.

I purchased this to replace a Jabra bluetooth handsfree speaker that was being redeployed to another vehicle. This IOGear unit is smaller than the Jabra but the interface is very similar. One difference is that the Jabra will announce the phone # of the incoming call. This unit does not have that feature. Also the sound quality on the Jabra is a little clearer and louder. At the highest setting, the volume on this unit is adequate but you may need to turn the volume setting on your phone to it's highest setting. I have an iPhone 3G and the highest setting was required to get a reasonable volume. I don't think this would work well in a moving convertible with the top down.

This was easy to pair with two phones simultaneously which is nice if you have 2 drivers for the vehicle as I do for my SUV. This eliminates the need to pair the device with each driver's phone when they use the car. You pair it once and just turn it on when in the car and either or both phones are paired automatically. You must read the instructions closely to make sure the multi-pairing setting is selected first.

The Visor clip does not work with a thick visor (Visors with lighted Mirrors built in are usually thicker). The suction mount is OK but not legal in all states. Check your state laws for compliance. Tech support said they do not offer a solution for clipping the unit to the thicker Visors. The suction cups is holding up so far but I am worried about the unit falling off as outside weather conditions and temperature change. IOGear does provide an extra set of suction cups and the unit seems robust enough to survive a fall but it might be better to remount it periodically.

So far the Solar charging seems to be working well. Also because of the compact size, the unit is easy to travel with.

The Volume and Visor clip issues prevent me from giving this 5 stars. Also, it would be nice if it announced the # of the incoming call as the Jabra does. If you don't want to hassle with charging monthly (my Jabra lasted over a month on a charge in typical usage) then this is a nice solution. If you want the best voice quality and added features, I would recommend the Jabra for about $10 more as an alternative.

PROs

+ Loud speakerphone: I have no problem hearing the callers, even on the highway. It is a lot better than the iPhone's built-in speakerphone. Also, people I talk with say I sound crystal clear on this device.

+ Solar charging: My car is parked out in the sun while I'm at work, so why not put all that sunshine to good use? This device keeps itself charged without having to keep yet another cord in the glovebox.

+ Auto-Off: If your phone moves outside of the bluetooth range (20-40 ft), it will turn itself off after 10 minutes or so.

CONs

Power button: You have to hold the button for 4 seconds to turn this device on. I wish you could just tap it quick when you hop in the car to power it up.

The range is too good: With my car parked in my attached garage, the bluetooth never disconnects when my phone is in the house. Therefore, the speakerphone never turns off. I have to remember to manually power it down with the 4 second button press (or disable the bluetooth on my phone) when I get home.

Some reviewers commented that their device doesn't charge when it is in the sun. Basically, this device knows when it needs charged. The battery has to be low enough before the red charging light will come on when charging via solar power. It's kind of like your cellphone; your phone won't charge when you plug it in if it's at 100% already.

UPDATE: 1 year later and this bluetooth speakerphone is still going strong. I've never had to plug it in other than the initial charge when I first got it. The solar charging works great.

Had this about a month the solar feature attracted me since I never knew when there was any power left in my last unit. Actually, it's the same with this how much charge does it have left?

Charging: I did the first charge via USB, and once in between, during this four week period and every couple days put it into the sun. Have used it more than a dozen times or more on calls, and it keeps working. A previous review said the red led is supposed to light when solar charging, but I've never seen it, and not sure it's supposed to do that... only lights when plugged into USB charging. Given that a full solar charge takes more than 10 hours the limited time I place it in the sun just might be enough to keep it going. Bottom line: not sure if the solar charging really works, but I only did the USB charge after a couple weeks because I got nervous. And you do have to turn the unit over to charge, and then back again to use it so the speaker and mic are toward you. Seems to take a little more fussing to use it fully.

I like the size... and the capability to handle two phones. People seem to hear me fine. The speaker volume is not the best I have a Storm 2 and need to have it at full volume, with the Iogear at full volume, to really hear it. For me, this is the weakest point. I don't have a noisy car, but I have to kill the radio, roll up the windows and really pay attention. Or, I'm just gettin' old!

This was very easy to use right out of the package! When I tried it out at first I was disappointed as I couldnt hear while the car air conditioner was running. And I remembered that someone else had said it was very low in sound. While quite by accident I found that the volume on my lotus was down to 2 and after adjusting the volume on the IOgear and on my phone it works wonderfully loud if I so choose! I did find that i have to check my phone volume when I get in the car because either from bumping around in my purse or in just normal use it tends to lower the volume by itself. If you check that out on yours too I think you will be as happy as I am with this product...Oh, I have to mention the voice recognition works better than most items I've tried. I will say call 123456 and as long as I don't rush it, it always understands and makes the call!

It works, it's cheap. Nuff said.

(I use it with my Magellan 1700. It has ample amps (the max) so it will charge fast.)

Received quickly from the vendor. Plugged it in and it works well. I use it to plan trips inside the house prior to getting into the car. I find it a critical accessory since the GPS battery has a short life.

This is a surprisingly good product. I have a very good GPS in my car, integrated with OnStar. I bought the Magellan so that I could plug it into a rental car after flying to Florida. I also bought the adapter so that I could program in the places I wanted to visit before I left home in Canada.

The Magellan was quite good almost as good as the one in my car, which cost about 30 times more. It is very easy to program and it is easy to read and hear in strange surroundings. Most of Florida is pretty simple to navigate on one's own but Miami is a nightmare for all but the cognoscenti. There, the Magellan was dead-accurate. I would have been lost without it. It saved my bacon several times.

My only quibble would be the geeky voice with a Spanish accent, but I guess that's the state of the art. Also, be careful programming the right options. If you "minimize freeways," Magellan can take you on a horrendous detour to save a two buck toll. Once I made this mistake once and realized the error, there was no problem.

I purchased the Magellan OEM power AC adapter in August 2011 but didn't open the package until February 2012. The cord was enclosed but not the part that plugs in to the outlet. I contacted this company knowing too much time had lapsed to return but expected at least some response. Received no acknowledgement from them at all.

DEWALT Bare-Tool DC820B 1/2-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Impact Wrench (Tool Only, No Battery)

If you are looking at the DC823 or DC825 or any other 18v impact, get this instead. Why? 25% more torque than DC825 (1330 in/lb) and 240 more inch pounds than DC823(1500in/lb). The DC820 has 1740 in/lb. With a couple simple adapters you can do anything you can with the other 2 impacts. Any "impact rated" 1/2" to 3/8" adapter will get you the functionality of the DC823. There are several adapters to go from 1/2" to 1/4" hex as well, I chose the "ASIN:B002KKBBR4 Milwaukee 48-03-4410 Shockwave 1/2-Inch Square by 1/4-Inch Hex Adapter" and now I can do anything the DC825 can do as well. Just one bit of caution however when using it with the 1/4 hex adapter to drive screws, it is so powerful you can overdrive/break normal strength fasteners if you aren't paying attention. I also have the option of just putting a socket on and using it for automotive applications. It pulls lugs nuts off like a champ. This thing rocks, just buy it already!

This is a useful tool with more power than you'd expect for its small size.

It's about 1.5 times the size and weight of my 1/4" hex drive impact tool but seems to have 4x the power. This obviously isn't going to out drive an air powered impact wrench but has more than enough power to handle lug nuts.

The only time this tool failed to impress me was removing large diameter stainless steel fasteners with seriously galled threads (an antenna mount that had been on our office roof for 10+ years.) The DC820B could break the seized 3/8 bolts but didn't have the power to break the 1/2" bolts. It tried and tried but couldn't quite get the job done. I could feel a slight flexing of the tool in my grip that probably robbed torque from the job at hand. To be fair, I had removed more than 50 bolts before attempting to free the seized bolts and didn't take the time to replace the battery so this isn't conclusive, your results may be better.

The only real design complaint I have about this tool is the socket retention mechanism. Instead of the spring loaded ball or hog ring systems used on most 1/2 air impact tools this one has a spring loaded "detent pin retention system". On my tool this requires using a small screwdriver or similar tool to push in the retention pin every time you want to change a socket. It was a hassle at first but now I just leave a short impact extension on the tool and change sockets on the extension.

I mention this since when looking at the parts diagram it appears that Dewalt has different models that use the hog ring system. One of those might be a better choice if you change sockets frequently.

Like one or two other reviewers mine emits a slight burning smell that seems to have gotten less noticeable the longer I use the tool. I have some other Dewalt tools that had the same problem but none have died (so far at least)

This tool is small and light but has plenty of power for any 1/2" socket you would be likely to use. It works best with the lithium battery but the nicad works just fine although noticeably heavier. After using this tool hard for several days I'm not sure 5 stars is enough. The work performed per pound would have been unimaginable a few years back.

Battery Protector (T3)

I was exited when I read this item's description. I have a convertible Mustang that is several years old that, while I love it, I don't drive it as much as I'd like. This, of course, results in an often-drained battery. The Battery Brain Gold promised solutions to all problems. A manual button to cut or reset batter power, an override switch, a remote control so you don't have to lift the hood, an automatic power monitor in case you forget to cut the power or just decide not to, and even direct power connect wires to power specific items while the power is overridden. Fantastic! Except it doesn't work.

The brain was pretty simple to install and it worked for two days, giving me false hope. And when I say two days, I mean a drive to the gas station one day and a three mile drive to work the next. Nothing happened when I tried to cut power after arriving at my office that second day. The remote was completely ineffective. Upon arriving at home at the end of the day I opened the hood and tried the manual button. Nothing. Not only did it not cut power, the button didn't even click. It has ceased to anything at all.

Believing that the unit was simply defective, I ordered another. This one didn't even work as well as the first. The button didn't work at all and the remote cut power twice before stopping and never restored power. I had to manually override the device and then just disconnect it.

I really do not feel it's worth the money on this one; and to make things worse, Amazon increased its price by $30 since I purchased it! I will now try a manual switch which will physically sever the power flow and pay $60 less to simply raise the hood.

My battery brain worked as advertised until it died for no reason four months later. The only reason I gave two stars instead of one is that it does work . . . until it stops working. Based on some other reviews I have read, it seems that I am not the only victim. I would stay away until they change the design and solve whatever is making these things fail.

I installed the Battery Brain Gold as an alternative to a remote mount manual kill switch (I have an old car and I like to disconnect the battery in case of shorts when it's not in use. Harder to steal as well)

The device installed pretty easily and included all the hardware neededand then somebut it can be awkward if you don't have some space around the battery or the positive battery cable length is marginal.

Don't have a long term feel for it yet...I'll add comments if it fails to perform.

Put this on my 2006 Corvette because it sits a lot and after a couple of weeks the battery could go dead. Used it for about a week and then finally took it off. Started actively driving the car again (with a new battery) I'd park the car, go back to start it 10 minutes later and it would have disconnected my battery for no reason. Was random. May work on some cars but is probably pure luck at what their trigger threshold is. Would not recommend.

NOCO Genius G26000 12V/24V 26 Amp Smart Battery Charger and Maintainer

Would definitely recommend this charger to anyone! Safe, compact, and light. I have batteries that won't accept charge from anything else and this NOCO genius worked! It's definitely a great buy!!

I own the smaller more portable NOCO G750 NOCO Genius Gray 6V and 12V 750mA (.75A) Fully Automatic Battery Charger and Maintainer but needed something that I could use regularly to charge my 24 volt batteries and this charger did not disappoint. It actually repaired a battery which I thought was dead. I haven't owned this charger that long but will be back with a more updated review once I do, but to this point I haven't found any negatives yet.

This charger is a must have if you own multiple vehicles and/or farm equipment like I do. I got it on sale for around $290 and have to say it's worth every single penny. The recovery mode is a cool feature because if you lose power it remembers the previous setting when the power comes back on, so you really can just plug this charger in and set it with no worries of over-charging or damaging your batteries. You can pretty much charge anything with this beast too, this is a swiss-army charger in my opinion.

We set this up as a charger for our toy hauler. When the generator is on and the Genius is plugged into the trailer, it charges the batteries to a full capacity in 2-3 hours. Works best with 6-volt batteries.

Garmin Zumo 550 3.5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

• 3.5-Inch Screen
• High-Sensitivity GPS Receiver
• 10,000 Point Tracking
• Bluetooth-Enabled For Hands Free Calling & For Sending Audio To Compatible Helmets
• High Bright Display For Sunlight Readability & Uv Resistant

People complain about the Zumo not having a built in speaker. Well, you wouldn't be able to hear it while riding your bike it if it had one, so it's a bit of a moot point.

On a side note, I think there are some features the unit lacks that can be somewhat annoying. First, and definitely the most annoying for me, the elevation by which you view your position on a GPS determines the amount of detail you see, i.e. POI's, street names, distance of road to travel, etc. The units I have used previously (factory nav in a Honda, other Garmins and the Mio 310 to name a few) had the ability to select zoom/elevation from the main nav screen allowing you to choose your "view" of the road so to speak, at anytime. With the Zumo, you cannot change elevation/zoom from the main nav screen, you can only adjust it while in map mode searching for a destination. The second you go back to the main navigation screen you loose the elevation you chose and go back to a default level of zoom, which for me is real irritating.

Another annoying feature is the keyboard for text input does not offer a QWERTY layout. I have not had to type on an ABCDEF style keyboard since the invention on the PC. In fact, I have a Garmin IQue 3600 that's 4 years old and it has a QWERTY keyboard?

Also, the search function on the Zumo is relatively slow at times. I once waited 4+ minutes while searching for a popular restaurant. It found it eventually, but for a while I thought the unit just froze up. I happen to be sitting in my driveway so it was only a minor annoyance, but if you were parked on the roadside with cars buzzing by it would seem more like an eternity.

One other issue, the built in hard drive is pretty much full with maps right out of the box, which isn't that big of a deal with the open SD slot. The SD slot lets you slip in a SD card for expanded memory capability (MP3 storage etc.), but when loading routes from your PC (which is a great feature I'll touch on below) you must save the data directly to the units hard drive in order for the Zumo to be able to read it. Well, that's going to be an issue when the hard drive fills up from firmware updates, etc.

While I'm at it, I think the icon that marks your position on the map is annoyingly large. It makes your car or bike look the size of a lake, or some other large map detail.

On the plus side, I believe that all of the issues I mentioned are correctable via a firmware update and a few bugs are to be expected to some extent given this is the 1st generation of a new model. Although, you can also argue that with the price this thing sells for combined with the experience Garmin has building GPS devices there is really no excuse for the Zumo lacking anything.

A nice feature, which is common on Garmins top units, is that you can map out routes on your PC, load it to the Zumo (again, on the built in hard drive though not the SD card) and away you go. This comes in handy if you're in sales for example and need to hit a few clients on a particular day or if you're going to be cruising on your bike and have a bunch of places you want to stop at during the trip. Rather than having to wait and program destinations one at a time as you make your stops, you can knock them all out the night before on your PC so you're entire trip is planned before it's even begun.

Also, the Bluetooth feature is sweet and works flawlessly. Pairing the Zumo with my Blackberry was a breeze. The Zumo was able to read my address book and displayed the contacts on the phone screen so there was never a need to touch the Blackberry once paired. When in the car, the speaker worked well and people on the other end seemed to have no trouble hearing me. I disagree with the one reviewer that said the mount looked weak. I think the mount would successfully support a cinderblock on rough road.

Installing the Zumo on my ZZR1200 took me about 30 min. It takes some time to run the wires and connect to the battery. You will need to crimp connectors (that are not supplied) on the end of the wires that go to the battery. The Ram mount is real solid. The Zumo does not move once you're locked in and on the road.

Now for the justification of the 4 star rating given I beat the Zumo up quite a bit. The build quality of this thing it second to none. It is literally built like a tank. I'd bet it would outlast anyone who buys it. Again, firmware updates will likely take care of all its shortcomings over time. And last but not least, Garmin tech support is second to none. No matter who you speak to they are knowledgeable, professional and will provide answers to anything you can throw at them (and I come up with some good ones) all without making you feel like you're annoying or a technological moron.

Therefore, I don't think you can go wrong with any Garmin, if you can swallow the price of the unit.

I just wanted to comment on the Zumo 550 with current software. I purchased this unit about 3 weeks ago and before I got it I was a little disheartened by some people's reviews on some lacking features. However when i got the unit and upgraded to the latest software (that was available as of 4/15/2007) many negative comments seem to have been addressed (if I'm understanding the commented issues correctly). First the views of the unit seem very flexable and I don't see the limitations. You can select between 2-D top down views for the people who are used to that view or 3-D. The unit has multiple levels of zoom/un-zoom from the big buttons on the outside as well as on the touch screen... I'm just not seeing any limitations. You can also taylor how much detail you want to see on the screen ( more or less). The only thing I do agree with is the Icon's used to show your position (you can choose between about 6 or so) are kind of large. Would have been nice to have the choice to alter that but I chose the 'wedge' and it works nicely with the screen size. Second, definitely a software upgrade was the addition of two different compus views.. .one small indication on the main map screen and a full 360 degree compus graphic with ELEVATION on a separate screen (selectable from the big rubber buttons or through the menu). The unit is unbelievable compared to earlier units I've had .. I can litterally stand in my family room under cover and turnaround and move 1 step (sometimes 2 is needed) and the unit will reflect the change in direction! I use this with a common motorola razr phone and a Scala Rider helmet bluetooth unit (on a shoei rf-1000 helmet) and everything works perfectly. Also, as far as weatherproofing the manual indicates it can be kept under 1 meter of water for 30 minutes! Great mounting hardware and super easy to use.. definitely a fantastic unit with the latest software upgrades. Thanks.

The 550 works very well. Specs say it works between 32 & 140 degrees. I ride all winter so far it works at 15 degrees F. Surprisingly easy to use with heavy winter riding gloves. The motorcycle mount is much cleaner than I expected. Very flexible, allowing the unit to tuck in close and not look dorky. The car mount is clean with an acceptable albeit not great speaker. It's VERY easy to move between vehicles. I was somewhat disappointed at first about the lack of a built in speaker, but if I need to walk around with it, it's no big deal to use your cell phone Bluetooth with it. Maybe that's the price you pay for a truely waterproof unit. While riding, you can hear the alert tone using a cell phone Bluetooth, but cannot understand the audio. I plugged in iPod ear buds into the bike mount and it sounds great without being obvious about being "plugged in" (I ride a half helmet). If you use a full face with built in speakers you will be very happy with the audio.

Others complained about the lack of things like a real compass and satellite acquisition display and built in speaker. I have addressed the speaker issue. The compass displays eight points (like the one in the rear view mirror of your GM car). That's all I really need. Showing the satellites it has acquired is neat but what do I really care the thing is very sensitive. I get 5 of 5 bars IN my house. The MP3 player does work well although it does not have play lists. You can at least sort by album, artist and genre. To listen to decent quality audio, you will need ear buds. Displaying pictures looks good but the response is a little sluggish.

Storing up to 50 routes is great and being able to download them to Google Earth and visualize them is very slick (it does take Google Earth Plus a $20 annual fee to support this feature).

Overall I am VERY pleased with this unit it does exactly what I need (and then some) looks great very sturdy.

The new Zumo 550 is a big step forward in ease of use, but sacrifices some of the flexibility of previous units (Streepilot series, x76C series). The touch screen display and integrated buttons on the left side of the unit are easy to use even with riding gloves, and the new locking mount is a big improvement. GPS reception also seems to be GREATLY improved; not getting lost under dense tree coverage. The display is relatively big, bright and clear; but difficult to read in really bright sunlight. Also, much of the screen is used for large display items and touch "buttons", so the actual map display is fairly small. The built in battery is an improvement over the StreetPilot, allowing the unit to be used when the motorcycle is off. The battery also allows the unit to be connected to a PC without an AC adapter.

The new operating system is easy to learn and use, but lacks some of the flexibility of other units. Long time GPS users may feel restricted by the fixed display formats, but new users probably won't notice. The operating software still has a few bugs and route guidance prompts need some work, but Garmin does a good job of making updates available (with WebUpdater) and has already released v2.3.

The MP3 player is simple to use but does not support playlists and still seems to have software bugs.

I have linked the ZUMO to a bluetooth helmet (Dainese) and phone (LG-VX8500) and it seems to work very well. Although told that the MP3 would not work over bluetooth, it does in my set-up.

In summary: even with the display restrictions and software issues this is a great GPS for motorcycle use.

All the write-ups suggested this Zumo 550 was going to be impressive. They weren't wrong. The BIG positives, from my perspective:

1. Satellite acquisition must be seen to be believed. In my basement it took less than 15 seconds, out of the box, first power-up. That performance has been repeated every time since, with the exception of first-power-up after upgrading the firmware to 3.2. Thereafter it went back to sub-20 second acquisition.

2. Its built like it should be, like you wanted it to be. Solid. Its going to spend time on my Harley ElectraGlide and in my Corvette and I wanted someting that matched their image. I got it.

3. Firmware upgrade was a 5 minute affair, no hassles, no fuss, no tears. Several nice new features were added, for my 5-minute investment.

4. Interchangeable top and bottom plates, in contrasting black, are a nice little extra. They even included the Allen wrench for the 3-minute task.

5. There's no need to buy extra (read, "expensive") accessories. This was the biggie, for me. This unit ships with a bike mount, complete with hard-wire power connector, AND it ships with a car-mount, with its own power connector. The fact that Garmin includes BOTH mounts with this unit was the deciding factor for me. The fact that both docking cradles with each mount are thoughtfully designed to allow super-quick, super-solid on and off mounting of the GPS unit itself, is a nice added plus. Also, the voice quality and volume of the built-in speaker in the car mount is impressive.

6. Bluetooth pairing of both my Blackberry 8700 and my Jabra BT800 was simple and flawless. Thereafter, when the BB and the Jabra were on and the Zumo was insereted into either the bike mount or the car mount, the Zumo automatically paired back with each unit, within 30 seconds of being mounted. I love technology that works. The real zinger was that the Zumo synched the 400-odd contacts in my BB8700, inside of 45 seconds.

7. For me, simply put, Garmin hit a BIG homerun with the design, execution and packaging of their new Zumo 550. Is it expensive? Not really, considering I didn't need to go out and scrounge up the expensive extras Garmin included for free. And the little things, like designing a magnetically-positioned weather cover for the bike's connector pins, is just icing on a big, well-decorated cake.

Bravo, Garmin.
