Bought it at a local store... nothing special, and many companies make them. Mine had both a suction cup mount and a clip on for the visor - the clip on is absolutely perfect for my vehicle (Land Cruiser 100) and gives me a wide angle view of my son.

Closed circuit TV.  I'm one of those people that has to get up to investigate noises.

Now I just sit in my easy chair and look at the 4 channels on an old computer monitor.

I hunt swampy areas during the early part of bow season.  If I had to leave my bow or the thermacell in the truck... I'd probably leave the bow.

I buy the jumbo packs of the refills. I sleep in my boat regularly (as in under the stars), the thermacell is the only thing that makes it possible

This man is correct I to installed a bidet and I don't know how I went through 56 years of life without one (there is nothing that compares to a cold shot of water to the balloon knot first thing in the morning)

Also the Sleep Number bed I will never sleep on anything else
