Fonus Universal Car Mount Holder with Dual USB Charger and Charging Socket for Apple Iphone 5

Fonus Universal Car Mount Holder with Dual USB Charger and Charging Socket for Apple Iphone 5The socket part is to big, It doesn't have a good fit. I have to Keep pushing it in. I recommend finding something else.

I had high hopes for this charger/mount for my new iPhone. Everything worked great--except for the USB plug, which would no way fit the iPhone 5 USB. Amazon should stop this company from selling this item, as they are obviously misrepresenting their product.

I only gave this two stars for the following reasons, great price and great design concept. However, the part that gets pushed into the power outlet does not fit properly in any vehicle and auto ejects itself, causing the charger not to charge. I didnt return the product as my time is more valubale, but if i had my way, i would ask for a full refund.

RoadPro 1324 Electronic Big Digit Clock and Calendar with Velcro Mounting Tape

RoadPro 1324 Electronic Big Digit Clock and Calendar with Velcro Mounting TapeI used this clock in my car, but when inside of the car gets hot, the clock resets the time and won't respond to button pushes until you remove the batteries. If you plan to use it inside in a cool or normal environment, it should be fine. The numbers are big and easy to see, it's just not suited for automobile use.

Didn't have a clock in the car, so removed the ash tray and set this in the space. This is the exact right size and right price, pretty accurate and works in the coldest winter days and hottest summer days.

Keeps good time always. Stays in place with the velcro that's included. Highly recommend buying this over any other one out there.

This is an easy to read clock in the daylight. It has large numbers and can be viewed easily from 45 deg with no noticeable fade of the numerals. The light is however useless at night. It only works when pressed (finger must be pushing the blue button on the right of the display for the lamp to illuminate). The lamp is an amber color and washes out the display so that while driving one must purposely stare at the clock in order to determine the time. I wish it was able to be powered from the vehicle's battery and dash lighting to elevate having to press the button to use the light in order to save the two small watch batteries used to power it. It works and so far is the best clock option I have found so far, but if a better option comes to market this thing is gone.

Update: Found a clock on E-bay that is LED powered from the cars electrical system. It only displays in 24 hour time and no date (this is better, the date is useless in a car) I like it a lot better it is bezel mounted and looks like it could have been a factory option. Gave the Amazon clock to my son so he has a clock in his game room.

Kicker 6" Two Way Speaker KIT

Kicker 6' Two Way Speaker KIT
  • Sensor Technology MicroCheck advanced semiconductor technology
  • Detection Range 0.00 - 0.40 %BAC
  • Mouthpieces 2 included
  • Test Count display's total number of tests performed
  • Power Supply Two AAA alkaline batteries, included

This product arrived in a short amount of time and was exactly as pictured. The sound quality is much better than the stock Blaupunkt (alleged) speakers in my car and the amperage handling was compatible with the Sony WX-GT77UI head unit that I installed which pushes 17 watts RMS and 52 watts peak per channel. I installed them in the front doors of a 2004 GTO and didn't really need to cut out the backing cups (as suggested on Crutchfield) after having attached the provided wires first. It was snug but fit fine.

Power Wheels 00801-1778 Charger, 12 Volt

Power Wheels 00801-1778 Charger, 12 VoltWe received our Power Wheels as a hand-me-down. The original owners lost the charger so I came to Amazon to replace it. When the charger arrived, I originally thought it did not match the battery that Amazon says it should go to (the grey battery with a three section opening). Eventually I realized that the connector from the actual Jeep to the battery and the connector from the charger to the battery do not look alike (at all) but both work. When this charger is inserted into the center portion of the grey battery opening, it will work perfectly. It took me about a month to realize that because I thought the connector should fill all three holes instead of just the one. Once I figured that out, we were golden. My kids love this toy now.

I had to come back and edit my original review where I indicated they don't match. I can't seem to edit my star rating but I now think it's a 5 star item and I would recommend this charger.

This charger works fine and as expected. The only confusion I had was the connector. It doesn't look like the connector on the battery but it plugs in and works fine. The battery has 4 pins but the charger has only two so I thought it was the wrong one. I called the very helpful customer service dept at Fisher Price and was told it is correct.

Just plug it in to the two pins in the middle. It works fine.

Great product. I bought it for my little girl's Barbie Jeep when the charger would not charge a brand new battery. It is identical to the one that came with the Jeep. Worked perfectly!

The charger was delivered ahead of the time promised and was significantly less expensive than if I had purchased it directly from the manufacturer. I would recommend this retailer to anyone and would use it again.

Exide MC-31 MEGACYCLE AGM-200 Sealed Maintenance Free (AGM) Marine Battery

Exide MC-31 MEGACYCLE AGM-200 Sealed Maintenance Free Marine BatteryReceived this Deep Cycle battery 2 weeks ago from Amazon. The manufacture's production date was 11/2011 and the manufacture's ship date (to Amazon?) was 12/2011 so the battery was received factory fresh. It arrive with a full charge per my multi-meter at 12.8 volts. It has 840 cranking amps at 32 degrees and 700 cranking amps at 0 degrees. It is a 100 amp hour battery with a 200 minute reserve capacity.

This battery was installed in a diesel pusher motor home as the "house" battery, which is used to power the lights, heat, water pump etc. when you are not connected to utility power or running the generator.

It is heavy (at about 72 pounds) but since it is a sealed AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) battery we won't have to remove it every 6 months and check the water level in it as you do regular lead acid batteries.

We also use a NOCO Genius G7200 charger (also sold through Amazon) to keep it charged since it is a "smart" charger and will not over charge the battery. We no longer use the coach's built in 12 volt converter/charger to keep the batteries charged since it will over charge the batteries and shorten their life.

Even though we have only had the battery 2 weeks, I would recommend it for 3 reasons:

1. PRICE! When shopping around for a group 31 AGM battery, our local battery store (Batteries Plus) wanted $325.00 for theirs. (To be fair, their AGM battery was a hybird with 1000+ cranking amps it is across between a deep cycle battery and a starting battery.) Other places online wanted $250.00 or more and around $50.00 shipping!

2. Exide has been making batteries for over 120 years so I think they will be around to honor their 2 year replacement warranty.

3. As an AGM battery there little maintenance (Just wipe it off every now and then). I have had an AGM battery in our full size truck for 7 years with no problems to report. Our other vehicles have had to have their batteries replaces every 2 to 3 years. The heat in Texas is hard on a battery... (From now on when we replace the batteries in our vehicles, they too will be AGM batteries.)

We plan on purchasing 2 more of these batteries when our existing engine starting batteries need to be replaced in the coach.

Hope this helps someone!

I bought this battery for my travel trailer and it passed the test on a recent 10-day trip to Yellowstone park. I had plenty of power for the whole trip without having to recharge. There was not a hint of fading power on the whole trip. My previous battery, which is only a year old, did not last this long on week-long trips. I'm happy.

Added 1/13/13 I bought a motor home and no longer use this on a trailer. I am now using it as a battery for my Minn-Kota 50 lb thrust troling motor on my 2 boats. I can also hook up my fish finder to it and have plenty of power for both. It works as a back-up for the motor home though I haven't had to use it yet.

I purchased two of the Exide MC-31 batteries from Amazon which were delivered in May, 2011. They were very well packaged and in excellent condition. After unpacking and inspecting the batteries, I was surprised to see that the manufacture date was May of 2010. The batteries had been in storage without charging for a full 12 months. The open circuit voltage indicated only about 75% charge, indicating that some plate sulphation must certainly have taken place by this time reducing the battery life and capacity. When I contacted Amazon their representative directed me to deal with the manufacturer. (Catch 22) The manufacturer did not supply the batteries to me directly and they were not actually defective (just old). I put the batteries into service and just hope their service life has not been shortened dramatically. When they were shipped to Amazon is not known, but selling lead acid batteries that are already a year old sounds like a huge oversite on Amazon's part. If you are considering the purchase of one of these batteries, I would suggest you contact Amazon first and inquire as to the date of manufacture.

I was a bit worried about ordering a battery from Amazon especially after the poor review and date problem listed below but, our travel trailer battery was dead and after checking local prices (whew!) decided to give this a try.

After reading all the reviews, opted for this one and then noticed, WarehouseDeals had one available for a few bucks less. Since batteries can't be returned in general, I figured the less spent, the less risk and opted to give it a go.

When the battery arrived, my initial reaction was "uh-oh" because it was dusty and dirty. No grease or anything but lots of dust...I think there was even a shoe-print on it! I dreaded the worst thinking this thing must have been sitting around the warehouse for ages. No so! I cleaned it off a bit and saw the date being the SAME month as shipped! Wow I can't even get batteries that new locally. In fact, I can't come anywhere near this price on this battery (or similar ones) locally...the next best price was about $100 more than what I paid.

Hooked it up to see the charge...was at 92%. Charged the remainder. Works like a charm! Couldn't be more pleased by this purchase. Great battery, great price, great delivery, very fresh! Oh it was dirty as all get-out but I saved about $100 so still very pleased!

Not sure why the production date of the battery I got was 12 months ago .. but it was fully charged and came packaged well enough. Since it shipped for free with Prime .. I'd hate to know what it would have cost with regular shipping cost considering its weight.

DB Link BTN1 Negative Battery Terminal

DB Link BTN1 Negative Battery Terminal
  • Negative Terminal
  • 4-,8-,10-Gauge Input
  • Platinum/Gold Plated

Years and years ago I moved the battery in my Saab 900 from the front, crammed in against the turbo, into the trunk. I used an Optima Red Top probably not the best battery, but what was available at the time in a sealed, non-venting battery. The battery cable was all very high quality braided, silicone insulated stuff but the terminals I've used have been crappy parts store pieces. Inexplicably, I found it IMPOSSIBLE to find battery terminals that fit the negative post of this battery properly they were always loose, and no matter how hard I clamped down never fit right. A couple years back my Red Top stopped holding a charge, so I replaced it with another Red Top and had the same stupid problem with the negative post! So I tried other terminals... and nothing seemed to work right. This stuff is standardized so I can only blame cheapo terminals from Autozone. My last negative terminal literally broke in half over the winter, so I replaced it and the positive side (hey, they gotta match) with these DB Link parts. I was not up for spending $80 on solid gold, LED whathaveyou terminals I just wanted a nice piece that would fit well and last. I think I've found what I was looking for. These terminals installed easily on my battery cable, clamped BOTH posts tightly and completely, and in general appear nicely made. For thirteen bucks each, I think they were a superb choice and I'm looking forward to a long term relationship. In fact, I think I'm gonna order another pair for the other Saab!

ok connectors was to be a 0 ga,4ga and 28 ga when it arrived it was a 2 ga not 0ga,the clamp bolt is cheap and shaves off metal when tightened. return cost was too high so it was a waste of money. buy the monster clamps, I did much better

I bought this to replace my OEM terminal clamps. This one did not fit at all on the negative battery terminal of a an Optima red top. The clamp was way too big (like it was made for the positive terminal). I sent it back to amazon for a refund.

If you have a SAAB NG, then all i have to say is BUY THIS. it is the best fitting negative terminal I have ever used. Plus it has an extra slot for another ground. It is really solidly built. Great value, I bought 2 one for under hood one for aux battery in trunk.

After spending hours working on this POS in 100 degree heat I can tell you that you're better off trying to remove your own appendix than buying this thing. The problem is that the ring is simply too large to get a secure fit on the negative post of most batteries. Even screwed in all the way to the point of nearly shearing the screw I can still spin the terminal on the post. I even tried making modifications to it but to no avail. Don't waste your time or money on this. You'll just end up with more gray hairs than you started with. I only wish I could rate it 0 stars. Actually I think they OWE me stars, that's how bad it is.

Took it to a hardware store and they cut the key for me, no problems. I thought that transferring the electronics from my old keychain to the new one might be tricky, but in fact when you open it up you discover that the electronics are enclosed in a sealed pod iside the key. Pull it out, drop it in the blank and you're good to go!

2002-2006 Nissan Maxima Keyless Entry Remote Key Fob w/ Free DIY Programming Instructions

2002-2006 Nissan Maxima Keyless Entry Remote Key Fob w/ Free DIY Programming InstructionsI did not expect this! At $20 it was worth a try to get a second Fob... and it actually worked! In my 2006 Nissan Maxima SE, I had to modify the instructions a slight bit; I had to jam the key in and pull it out of the ignition like 10-12 times before the flashers flashed, not 6 like it said. It is exactly the same as the one I currently own (including markings on back), which means I either already have a knockoff just like it, or this is an actual OEM part.

Works like a charm.

My 16 yr son was able programed it without my assistance within a minute.

Nice product.
