Search and Rescue able to find lost party who was using SPOT
I am a deputy with a county Sheriff's Search and Rescue patrol and had my first experience with the SPOT unit today. We had two motorcyclist lost in the back country for two days. Once they ran out of gas and food, they activated their SPOT unit. We kept getting messages with their exact location. We were able to locate them quickly and get rescuers to their remote location within hours. They ...

performs as advertised
I bought this item a few months ago and I love it. Provides enough power to run my laptop and GPS at the same time (I have my GPS hooked up to the USB port and laptop hooked up to the AC port). I Have had no problem with it whatsoever. I would highly recommend it.

great for home and boat
I bought this unit about 2 months ago and brought it with me to South America. I've been living here for 6 years and there are often times power outages so I wanted something with enough power to power up a TV and my modem at home so that I could have some sort of entertainment with these outages. So far, it has worked like a charm. I have a 32" Sharp TV that works for at least an hour (the ...

Excellent clarity, waterproof
The clarity of the stations is perfect, even indoors. The radio is water resistant and to make sure, I intentionally dunked it in the sink (it survived). The emergency notification setting was a disappointment. I was planning on leaving the radio on emergency notification 24 hours a day to be warned of tornadoes during tornado season, but unfortunately the emergency weather service blares up ...

Really, really programmable
This thing is fantastic. Our old weather alarm only let you program in "SAME" designations (just warnings for your county would go off). That was fine and good, but the darn thing went off all the time (we live in the Midwest, with lots of thunderstorms and rain). We needed a weather alarm because the outdoor tornado sirens are so quiet, I don't think they'd wake us up. On the other hand, I ...

Good little radio
This is a good, dependable, basic weather/hazard radio. It was easy to set up and can monitor several counties. This is good if you live near the border of one or more counties. The directions do a good job of helping you find the codes for the counties you need. It does use batteries as a backup. This model, however, cannot delete watches, so you will hear every watch or warning given out, at ...

Excellent investment
The American Red Cross FR150 is every bit what it claims to be. AM/FM/Weather bands all are very clear. The crank was used only once - on the initial charge up. After that the solar panels have been powering the radio. I have used it at least 8 times so far for extended times of 2 hours or longer without it ever fading or going out. Living in Hawaii where hurricanes are a threat every year this ...

Midland WR300 weather alert radio
After reviewing all of the weather alert radios on Amazon.com I chose the WR300 because of the many good reviews posted there. This product was shipped to me in less than one week. It was very simple to set up and has worked beautifully. Hurricane Fay was approaching and all pertinent information was broadcast into our house in a timely manner. We have not received any unimportant messages in the ...

FULLTIME RVER'S MUST-HAVES!
2 years ago we became fulltime RVers. Our first were 4 Xantrex Powerpack 400W. We use for an evening of TV and Computer rather than use the limited house power. However after after many uses, the power/time diminishes. We then bought 4 Xantrex Powerpack 600W. Great product for our needs! With both models, we have jumpstarted other's vehicles. Cannot speak to the radio, but both models function ...

A Great Little Radio!
I purchased this radio to take on fishing trips in the midwest and Ontario and have been very pleased with the weather channel reception as well as the AM & FM bands. I just recently tuned in to the TV channels it picks up and was again plaesantly surprised at the reception considering we were away from any major city. I like the "dynamo" and my boys enjoy cranking it so it runs on its own ...

Great little sound
I bought this little fellow for the beach, doctor's office, etc. I specially love to hear the news, and the earphones are great and comfy when I don't want to disturb others. The reception is great, with the inconvenience that you have to search for the best signal. Nevertheless, is a great buy for the price!

Emergency Sensor Lights
Delivery was fast and the product works just as described. We're in Florida but if we never use them for anything other than a nightlight, it works better than any others we have since it has a motion detector and lights up even brighter when you need a little extra light. We bought two and may get more to replace the other nightlights we have.

This is no joke. Its the real thing!
This scanner is amazing. I must warn all of the people that aren't good with electronics, programming this thing will be almost impossible. It took me about 8 hours to get the hang of this scanner and I am and electronic freak. To me the instructions were BS and I did better free handing it. RadioReference.com is a really good site for finding trunked systems and their frequencies for your area. ...

3 Years & Still Going Strong
I received this (in brown) as a Christmas gift for weather emergencies; three years later it's still working great, with impressive radio life from minimal cranking. I live in a tornado-prone area and was delighted to receive this as a gift from my brother and sister-in-law. The radio reception is excellent in my area (South Central Wisconsin) and I easily get 45 minutes to an hour of reception ...

Exactly what was needed.
For two years we had complaints from the people handling the registation desk for a multi-day event that they needed additional lighting. Unfortunately, the area where the table was set up had no access to an electrical outlet. We purchased two of these lamps and the problem was solved. It has two different levels of light output, and although it does not cover a wide footprint, the lights ...
