HQRP 50 Watt Solar Panel 50W Power 12V Monocrystalline PV Module plus HQRP Coaster Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Initially, I want to warn people who are amateurs like me that the MC (Multi Contact) cables that Amazon recommended for this solar panel WILL NOT WORK and the correct cables, apparently, are not available on Amazon. What you need is referred to as Multi-Contact Solarline 2 on some sites or MC4 on other sites. Yes, confusing for a newb. Fortunately, I found adapters on eBay that will link the newer cables from the solar panel to the older cables Amazon recommended. They are called: Solar Panel Power Cable Adapter MC3 Female to MC4 Male - you'll also need male to female.
Hope this saves others an expensive le$$on.
I'll update this review when I receive the adapters from eBay....

UPDATE: These are good little panels at about $53/amp. I chose these instead of the 85 watt panels because I am making a portable power setup - these are about 10 inches smaller. The 85 watt panels are almost twice the amps for about $100 more.

Just be aware the connectors on this panel are the new MC4 Solarline 2, not the old MC3 Solarline 1 that Amazon was selling.
If you bought the old cables as I did, the adapters to connect the old cables to the newer connectors of the solar panel can be found on eBay here:

The male to female adapters are further down the page. If you don't find it there, the seller for the above eBay link sells both. You would need both male and female.

Streamlight 75711 Stinger LED Light with 120V AC Charger and Holder, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have this flashlight and used it while on-duty as a police officer.Shortly after purchasing it from a local police uniform store, the switch became faulty and would only function properly intermittently.Sometimes it wont turn on and at times it wont turn off when clicking the switch.I turned it in for repair and when I got it back everything was fine for a while until the flashlight would turn on by itself when inverted.This was a huge officer safety issue when I have the flashlight holstered on my duty belt.It would turn on by itself when walking or sitting in the car thus exposing me in the dark.I've been using my other Streamlight UltraStringer and no problems with that except the battery life seems much shorter.I'm going to try the Streamlight Stinger (non LED) next and hope that's better than the ones I already have.

Solar Powered Camping Lantern. 3 Watt of Brightness. 10" Height. Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got mine a year before Amazon started selling them. And after two years (unlike most rechargable solar lanterns and other similar devices), with even indirect sunlight for 8+ hours, I stilll get 12+ hours of decently-bright-light from the lantern. That's quite a difference than other solar lanterns I've looked at which give, at most, 4 hours (usually less) of light...after 24+ hours! of sunlight. By the way, when you turn on this lantern's dial after charging, only turn the dial until maximum brightness is reached (look at the surrounding area; not the LEDs). That way, you will get the most light it can produce, and give you 3-4 extra hours of light because you're not uselessly 'cranking-up' the power while not getting any more light. (BTW: There are a lot of cheap "big C" poor quality solar lanterns out there, but this unit is a QUALITY one.)

Energizer Weather Ready Compact Rechargeable LED Light Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This Energizer RCL1NM2WR Rechargeable LED Flashlight can operate in two modes:
- In 'ON' or 'high-beam' mode, it projects a bright focused beam, which forms a circle of 3 ft diameter from a distance of 12 ft away. The light pattern is very similar to that from my Rayovac BRSLED2AA-B 2AA LED Flashlight, except the output from this Energizer flashlight is at least twice as bright when it is freshly charged.

- In 'nightlight' or 'low-beam' mode, the light is much dimmer, while the battery life is extended to 15 hours, instead of just 2-3 hours in full-power mode.

To use it as an emergency power failure light, you should leave this flashlight in 'ON' position, and plug it into an AC outlet. The light goes out while it is being recharged. But when the power goes out, or when you unplug it from the outlet, the light comes back on immediately.

You can also leave the unit in 'nightlight' mode while it is being recharged. But in this case, the flashlight remains on 24 hours a day since there is no light sensor. The light is actually too bright when used in bedroom. But it is just perfect for basement or hallways where you always need some illumination. Plus you'll never have to search for a flashlight again.

Some other points that I like:
- Unlike many other power failure lights, this one does NOT cover both AC outlets when it is plugged in.
- It can be mounted in either up or down directions.
- It only consumes 1W when recharging in nightlight mode.

There is one thing I don't quite understand: The flashlight is powered by a single NiMH button cell, Varta CP300H, with capacity of only 300mAh. It seems to me there is enough space to fit an AAA NiMH cell with capacity of 800+ mAh, or even an AA NiMH cell with capacity of 2000+ mAh. By doing this, the battery run time will be extended by several folds. But more importantly, I will be able to swap in alkaline cells when the rechargeable battery runs out!

On the other hand, the main purpose of this flashlight is just to help me find my other flashlights in case of a blackout. So for that I'm completely satisfied.

Streamlight 78002 UltraStinger Flashlight with DC 12v Vehicle Charger and Holder, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After years of dealing with inferior product I finally made a significant investment in a quality flashlight that I can depend on, and this one did not disappoint me. It came with both a 12V and 120V charger so you can go camping or whatever and charge it from your car. Both chargers are designed for the flashlight to be able to be in them continually, so you don't have to worry about overcharging. If I had one complaint it is that the beam doesn't focus from wide to spot very well, but it's so bright that you won't be needing a spot anyway.

Key points - flashlight battery life about one hour between charges. How do you get a beam so bright - by running the bulb hot so bulb life is quoted as 40 hour so I suggest getting a spare, they're reasonably priced. The beam is a clean white light!
