We've seen lots of good, now here's one to avoid...I bought these and one is working ok, the other was useless right out of the box.  The price makes them tempting, but probably best to avoid these.

Amazon branded HDMI Cables

I just bought a 2 pack.  1 was shit right out of the box.

Well I came across this fun little stereo amp.  I needed an amp for better/louder sound in my bathroom for talk radio/podcast.  Here's that thread.  Thread

I've only had the amp for a day, but the sound is great.  It pushes a decent amount of power for it's small size.  I'm running a Definitive Technologies ProCenter MKII center channel speaker, but I might get a pair of bookshelf speakers in the future.  

This would be a great item if you have a couple bookshelf speakers laying around and need a small stereo for your kitchen, bathroom, garage, game room, etc.  The amp has RCA and 1/8" inputs so you can hook it up to a smartphone, ipod, bluetooth receiver, etc.  Really can't beat it for $20 bucks and based on the reviews on amazon, it's a pretty popular little unit.

I have one.  Great little Tamp.  I did need to open it up and put some electric tape in as something was grounding out.  After that it worked swell.    
it there a blue tooth revicer I can plug the back of the unit so I can keep my phone on me?

Any of these connect via USB?  My Sony receiver somehow doesn't have a 3.5mm aux connection.

I was given one of those years ago and almost asked for my money back. Worst POS I've ever seen.
Yep, I ordered the T6, dropped in a couple 123's and it didn't last 5 min.  It got too hot to hold, i took the batts out and let it cool.  Never came back on.  going back and not being replaced.  I will stick with Olights, that i have had great experience with.  






Uh, you do realize that the T6 uses 18650 batteries, right?

Don't two 123s together have double the voltage of an 18650? Some lights have a voltage range that could work with either one 18650 or two  CR123s.

Found this little gem.  For anybody who has a car stereo that has an aux input and a usb input, here's a bluetooth receiver that will let you have bluetooth in your vehicle.  This is music streaming only, not for calls.

This is particularly nice for me since my headunit has usb and 3.5mm aux in right next to each other.

Along those lines is this gizmo.  It's an FM transmitter that plugs into a 12V socket.  Plug in a USB drive or SD card and you have lots of music at your disposal.

Awesome idea!!!





Great way for folks with old car stereos to get all their music on a USB thumb drive or SD card and have access to it without having to upgrade their stereo.

Now if you want something really slick - albeit a little pricey - check out the Klein 32534 "10 Fold HVAC".  It still has 1/4" and 5/16" nutdrivers, all the screwdriver bits, plus the schrader valve bits.  And it folds up like a small pocket knife.  I showed up at a buddy's house seemingly empty handed and as his wife screeched at him like a fucking crow, I whipped this little puppy out, took apart the condenser, replaced the bulging capacitor, and had him back up and running before she was done bitching about it.  As I put the panel back on I said to her "It's all fixed so you can shut the fuck up now.  Where's that beer you promised me?"

I left without the beer.  But it was worth it.

They make a 1/8th inch bit for those Klein multi bit screwdrivers so you can rewire thermostats.

I got one and it seems to work well. There is a little static/hiss, I think, but can't tell for certain. Still great buy for $9.00.

Speaking of thermostats, I'm going to order some of those bit sets for my Klein 11-in-1 and my 10-Fold.  In the meantime, right now I use a Klein Terminal Block screwdriver.  Yes, we all have those tiny, free-give-away screwdrivers handed out by Johnstone Supply and others.  But they cheap junky toys.  The Klein is well worth the $6.64 if you spend any time dealing with thermostat wiring.

Another gem for dealing with thermostats is the MagJumper.This thing is amazing!!!  Basically a wire jumper, but instead of clumsy alligator clips, the tips are tiny round magnets that fit right down into the screw hole in the terminal block and stick to the screw head.  You know, like when you need to jump the red and white wires together to see if the furnace lights.  So you yank the thermostat off the wall and try to get your clip leads down into the holes.  Or you unscrew the wires and pull them loose.  No more!  Just stick the ends in the little holes and you're GTG!!

Something awesome and inexpensive.  (mind you to click prime shipping)  We have 3 of these for the office/house/etc.  It is a 2ish inch cube that has a digital radio, fairly high quality speaker, audio in, usb and micro sd ports.  Plus the battery lasts a pretty long time.  If only it had weather stations and it would be perfect.  Btw, there are LEDs in the clear housing.

The display shows track or station info, etc.

Damn good deal for $14

I have one.  It depends what you are after.  Do you want a very small/portable speaker that will be a little louder than your cell phone?  

Personally, I'd spend an extra 10-15 bucks and buy one of the slightly bigger ones for better battery life and more volume.  The one above is cool for stocking stuffers and neat gifts for kids, but only at a cheaper price.  IMHO of course...

The Amazon Basic bluetooth speakers seem to have good feedback.  There are others as well that are in the 25-35 dollar price range.  Just search amazon for "portable bluetooth speaker" and select "4 stars and above" to filter results and you'll get lots of hits.

Hunt around on Amazon and you can get one for <$10 delivered.  So I figure'd eh - worth a shot!

Also, ordered one of these for my bike.  It'll probably break quickly, but pretty cool, safety enhancing (the laser ground lines cause cars to give you wider berth), and it's like $6, so don't care if it breaks.

I question the volume of your cell phone. I have an S4, and this speaker seems to be far louder than it, as well has having a little bit of bass. The battery also lasts 6 hours. I think it's great.

I don't have any significant way to measure volume.  My description of "a little louder" probably wasn't fair.  My only point was that this is a single speaker unit.  There are a TON of options now on Amazon.  So if space is a concern or you want something pocketable, yes this is a great unit.  But the sound quality isn't going to be sufficient for outdoor gatherings of any large space (my personal experience only).  

I wasn't knocking it, simply giving my feedback based on owning one that if I were in the market again and didn't mind a bigger unit, I might go in that direction instead.  But for what it is, I do like it.  But I only use it in a pinch in certain scenarios.  I would actually prefer something that was battery powered rather than changed via USB but that's just IMHO.

The <$10 version is pretty nice as well.  We have both.  The one I linked has a better (IMO) display.  Only difference really.  Now I just need to find my micro SD card to jam full of music and stick in the thing.  Odd thing about them though, you can record live radio into a MP3 when you have a thumb drive in the USB port.

Yeah I usually keep it in my briefcase because it's that small.  For it's size, it's really handy.

I have THIS one as well.  It uses 3 AAA batteries.  But it's bigger and doesn't fit in a pocket at all.

Bought one of these before my hike to Havasu Falls last month and it worked really well.  I probably would've trusted the spring water by itself, but it was good peace of mind since my wife is pregnant...

I should get some kind of kick back from Mora.  I've bought about a dozen of them Prime for various people not including the ones my wife and I own.




I bought 3 this week. Great gift for guys I know.

I ordered a couple of these. What a nice knife for the price. I'm ordering more just to have around.

I have one.  It depends what you are after.  Do you want a very small/portable speaker that will be a little louder than your cell phone?  

Personally, I'd spend an extra 10-15 bucks and buy one of the slightly bigger ones for better battery life and more volume.  The one above is cool for stocking stuffers and neat gifts for kids, but only at a cheaper price.  IMHO of course...

The Amazon Basic bluetooth speakers seem to have good feedback.  There are others as well that are in the 25-35 dollar price range.  Just search amazon for "portable bluetooth speaker" and select "4 stars and above" to filter results and you'll get lots of hits.

I've had this thing in my wish list for probably 1 year.  Is it any good?

Thanks.  I'll probably find something cool to stick in my wish list for another year.

Really good polishing mandrels for a Dremel. I've used these on a couple feed ramps and a trigger job and they've been awesome, particularly for the price...







































You can use any polishing compounds, however this Enkay set is awesome as well :

Princeton Tec REMIX PRO Headlamp in Black with White LED's
$13.99 shipped prime

This is a product code mistake on amazon's website. The photo is of a REMIX PRO but the price and listing is for an AMP 3.0 handheld flashlight. The light you receive will be the REMIX PRO in the photo and it normally retails at $45!! If you look at all the other price listings for the same item you will see they are all $40+ on the same product page from others vendors, and the 'green' color version is also $40+. If you order the 13.99 prime item it will be a REMIX PRO

Hunt around on Amazon and you can get one for <$10 delivered.  So I figure'd eh - worth a shot!

Also, ordered one of these for my bike.  It'll probably break quickly, but pretty cool, safety enhancing (the laser ground lines cause cars to give you wider berth), and it's like $6, so don't care if it breaks.

Something awesome and inexpensive.  (mind you to click prime shipping)  We have 3 of these for the office/house/etc.  It is a 2ish inch cube that has a digital radio, fairly high quality speaker, audio in, usb and micro sd ports.  Plus the battery lasts a pretty long time.  If only it had weather stations and it would be perfect.  Btw, there are LEDs in the clear housing.

The display shows track or station info, etc.

Damn good deal for $14

Here's a weird one - refrigerator parts:

I busted one of the door trays on my 25 cu.ft. side-by-side Kenmore, so I looked up the part on SearsPartsDirect and they wanted $30 + tax and shipping.  Almost $50 for a plastic door tray.    So I cut&paste the Frigidaire part number - 240323001 - into the Amazon search box and there it is for $12, no tax and free shipping.  It showed up in a few days and is an exact replacement.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DM8K72S/

So if you have a broken milk jug bin or butter door or pull out shelf, just find the manufacturer p/n and search for it.  You'll save some money.

I've placed four orders so far. Each one has been a headlamp. Either way you have nothing to lose since it's sold by Amazon.

Amazon also sells auto parts.  The above method of C&P the part number works well.  Their prices can be very reasonable, and this is a case where the $3.99 1-day shipping can be very useful.

I have done that for several appliance parts. Search the mfg for a part number, then order from amazon. The mfg prices are full list, amazon prices are much better.

Same here.  Got a fridge computer board for 50% off from some place in NJ, and they 2 day'd it.

Yup, gotta love it.

Needed a new splash guard for my garbage disposal.  None of the small or big places in town had a replacement that fit.  Found a the exact replacement for about $3 bucks.
