Perfect scale, gets all my boxes weighed just right! The scale sits just fine on my desk and it even has an auto hold feature: Just place the box on the scale, let it sit for 3 seconds then lift it off - the weight will still display! Great for bigger boxes...Love it! A+ 5 Stars! NEW 55lb DIGITAL POSTAL SHIPPING KITCHEN SCALE + AC ADAPTOR

I've been using this scale for a while now with good results. The things I like about it include the ability to remove the front piece to weigh over-sized objects and that it can handle up to 55 lbs with no problem. It has a relatively small footprint and is extremely easy to use. It also seems to be very accurate. I do wish that the auto shut-off timer were longer as I am forced to turn it back on multiple times during my shipping routine. Battery saving is good in theory but how much energy is wasted when one has to constantly re-boot the machine?



(By the way, this is the same scale as the Weighmax located at listing ID: B001EVS9HA - only with different custom/branded packaging.)

This is an excellent product and I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. It's not only a postal scale but food scale as well. Both work excellent. Also included with the purchase is an AC Adapter, so many others require you buy this separately.

This was a great buy in terms of a low price for a scale that can handle a lot of weight. However, some quirks that annoy me include:



1) the "hold" feature is nice in that a large box can be placed on the scale, you wait a few seconds, then remove it and the weight stays in the window for a while. However, it stays there way too long and the only way to reset it if you are in a hurry to weigh the next item is to turn the scale off and back on again. There should be a button to say "OK< I'm done now, let's move on", but there's not.



2) The accuracy is quite questionable. I ship out a lot of CDs through USPS, and sometimes the window will say "4.0 ounces" when in reality it may be 4.1 oz. Therefore, either my customer gets dinged with a "postage due" collection, or it comes back to me as postage due. I;ve learned to just round up whenever the window says X.0 ounces, just to be safe.



For the money though, there is value in this - particularly when shipping larger parcels.

I settled on this digital scale after reviewing several on Amazon. Some of the others were too pricey, others had too many dissatisfied customers. This one seemed to have the perfect balance of an affordable cost, a large capacity and few complaints. So far, so good. The memory function is invaluable. The first package I put on it was rather large and weighed almost 20 pounds. When I checked shipping online based upon the weight the scale gave me, it was the exact price I was given at the satellite post office (unfortunately you can't print first class postage at home from the USPS website). I am very satisfied with this purchase. The free AC adapter is a nice bonus - they cost extra with most of the other scales I looked at.

*

This little scale is perfect if you ship a lot of packages and want to save time by doing your postage online at home.



I have checked mine against the high dollar scales at the post office numerous times and it has been dead on accurate every time!

[gave exact same reading]



TIP: When you are weighing a large item that covers the display, remember that the display will "hold" the reading for about a minute AFTER you remove your item.

I bought this for our home post office. It works great and is much cheaper than the one found on the USPS website. Since it weighs items up to 55 pounds, we can also way our infant on the scale by placing him in a laundry basket. Being able to power the scale with a battery or the AC adapter is a plus. The only negative is that the screen can be hard to read. The recessed LCD creates shadows.

I had become tired of using the bathroom scale and/or guessing the weight of packages and then getting charged more than expected when I got to the shipper/USPS. This scale is very affordable, lightweight, compact and looks good, too! It will weigh packages (or anything else) up to 55 lbs. and is very accurate and easy to use. It comes with batteries and an AC adaptor. Now I know what my shipping charges will be before I ship. I am very impressed with the quality and price and highly recommend it to anyone who ships anything. I can't find anything wrong with this scale. It's a great time and stress saver!!

I needed an accurate yet non-budget-breaking postage scale for sending out packages periodically from home. I use PayPal to print out my postage & shipping labels for my boxes and this scale to weigh them. I've gone to the post office to verify it was correct and it is spot on! So I feel confident knowing my postage is correct. I can now print my postage from home and not run to the P.O. especially during the busy holiday season coming up. What a relief! Great features on the scale: easy to read, holds the weight for a generous amount of time after you remove package, compact, lightweight. Love that it comes with it's own AC adapter too! Others will charge you separately for this. Excellent product at an excellent price (just under $30). Don't hesitate to buy. - Shipping Scale - Weighing Scale - Diet - Accurate'

I am very disappointed in this Professional 58mm Digital Tulip Flower Lens Hood For canon. When installed on a telephoto lens it gets in the way of the operation of the lens. The lens hood is made of plastic and is easily cross threaded. I wish I could have handled this hood before I had ordered it. This is not worth the money to send it back. Look at another lens hood. You get what you pay for.

Eynpire Camera did process this order in a very timely manner.

I tried out this hood because it was cheap to see if I would like this design. The "tulip" design is not useful. It adds an element to think about when focusing the camera, because now the hood gets in the way of the shot as you turn the lens. Yes, you can turn the hood to not appear in the photograph, but it is an unnecessary adjustment. I will stick with a straight hood. - Digital Camera Accessory - Lens Accessories - Canon - 70-300mm'

Portable Vehicle Gps - gps, garmin nuvi

Visit Store Now !!

I actually could not decide between the Garmin Nuvi 255w or the 750 model, so I decided to buy them both for comparison. I mounted them both to my car windshield and gave them various addresses to find together. I found that both models took the same routes and announced upcoming turns and street names at practically the same time. One thing I noticed about the 255w was that it was updating my position on the road more often, I'd say about 3 times as often as the 750. This made for smoother graphics on the 255w of the vehicle moving along displayed roads, where the 750's display was more of a "jerky" movement. I also found that the display on the 255w was a bit brighter, clearer, and more vivid than on the 750 in both daylight and at night. Another feature I like on the 255w is the graphic turn indicator in the upper left corner, which the 750 lacks. This is a small arrow which shows upcoming turns and the distance to that turn. It also show things like a fork in the road, (ie: a Y intersection), and which fork you will be taking. The 750 just displays text on the top line for upcoming turns without the arrow. It's just a little extra feature on the 255w which I happened to really like. The 255 also automatically adjusts the font size of displayed text so that even lengthy text will fit.

Another feature on the 255w is a display of the posted speed limit on the road which you are currently on right above your current displayed speed. I found myself not even looking at my car speedometer as I could easily see my current speed and the speed limit of my route at a glance. The 750 doesn't have this feature. I also like how they moved the zoom in (+) and zoom out (-) buttons on the 255w to the same side of the screen which makes it a bit easier. On the 750 the zoom buttons are on opposite sides of the screen.

Now there are some features on the 750 that the 255w does not have. The 750 can broadcast it's sound over your FM radio with the supplied cigarette lighter cable, and it has a headphone jack, which I found to be nice features. The 750 also has an MP3 player and an Audio-book player, which the 255w does not. Another really nice feature of the 750 is the car locater. This is a great feature if you are parking in a really big lot, such as at an amusement park or a fair. The 750 marks your location when you remove it from the car, then you take it with you and it remembers where you parked and takes you right back to your car. The 255w doesn't have the car locater.

I also thought the the voice prompts of the 750 where more pleasant sounding than the 255w's. The 750 sounds more like a real female voice, where the 255w sounds more robotic.

Another thing to consider was that I paid $50 less for the 750 and it came with the FM transmitter cable and a USB cord to connect it to your computer for updates and downloads.

My final decision was to keep the 255w and return the 750 because I really liked the graphic turn indicator and the posted speed limit and current speed indicators. I didn't find a need for the 750's MP3 player and Audio book player, but that is up to personal preference. Since the USB cable was not included with the 255w, I purchased it on this site for $10. I also intend to purchase the MSN direct cable when it is available in August 2008. Garmin nüvi 255W 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator

If you spend much time driving in unfamiliar territory, especially if you rent cars in big cities, a good portable GPS makes an amazing difference. And the Garmin 255W is the best one I could find in the $250 - $350 range.



First this thing just plain works. I haven't had any issues with mine. It was easy to set up and figure out right out of the box, and it's easy to use. It never has had trouble getting sufficient signal unlike earlier and cheaper models.



I chose the 255W for several reasons: It uses some of the newest and best maps available. It has one of the more usable touch screens for entering destinations. It's fast to acquire satellites. And Garmin almost always comes out on top in reviews--especially in routing.



Ultimately, you buy a car GPS to get you from Point A to Point B as easily and efficiently as possible. And that's what the 255W does best. If you've ever had a "Brand X" GPS take you on some strange route that adds 20 minutes to your trip, has you turn the wrong way down a one way road, tell you to turn AFTER you've passed the street, frequently loses the satellite signal, or has old maps missing streets, you know how important this stuff is.



The 255W has a really clear display that's easy to see in any light. It's small enough to use on foot. The windshield mount works great and it's easy to toss in the glovebox when you park. It even tells you the speed limit on most roads. The "points of interest" feature works very well to find places to eat by type of cuisine, gas stations, etc.



The difference between the 255W and 205W is the 255 speaks street names and includes Alaska and Canada. The 205 and 205W will tell you to "turn right in 500 feet" which isn't as helpful or obvious as "turn right on Ivy Street in 500 feet". The "W" models are widescreen which makes entering destinations easier due to having a bigger "keyboard" and also lets you see more map area while driving.



All in all this isn't the cheapest GPS in its class but it's one of the best. My only gripe is you need an expensive add-on to get live traffic data--something that's included with the Magellan Roadmate 1430 which is close to the same price. But the Garmin 255W is a better GPS in every other way. - Garmin 255w - Gps - Garmin - Garmin Nuvi'

Overall I love this camera. It's easy to use. Easy to set up. Easy to get my pics and videos off of it. The picture quality itself is excellent. While I admit I AM a big fan of Sony (am typing this on my Vaoi Laptop), that's only because they keep delivering value. For the price you can't beat this video / camera combo.



Only one thing I would request - a stronger light and / or a flash option. That is the reason for the 4 star rating under feature set.

Milwaukee M18 - cordless, 18 volt

Visit Store Now !!

...Like I was. When I got tired of my Ridgid cordless hammer drill always being dead, I bought this set from TEAM TOOLS and got it for 50.00 more than I paid for the Ridgid drill alone(paid 350.00 for the Milwaukee set).



The drill is light and compact compared to other drills, but has all the power you'll ever need. The hammer setting drills through concrete better than I expected. This is a nice drill and it has outstanding power. The light is a cool add-on, and you may become dependent on it after you use it. The balance is also right on, and it fits nicely into my Milwaukee toolbelt I purchased from Amazon due to it's compact size.



I took the saw out of the box, picked up an old, dried out treated 2x4 and ripped it down. There was no stalling, and it maintained a nice steady speed with no binding. I then took this saw, using the same battery I just used, to rip the 2x4 (twice) an then made a 25' pass across textured plywood siding on a garage. It was still going strong. I then took the same saw and cut several plumb cuts on soffits, 12 total. Yep, still going strong and the fuel gauge still has 3 bars. By the way, the "fuel gauge" option is very nice to have.





I am also impressed with the sawzall. I have an electric sawzall (Milwaukee)and am not sure if I will ever need it again. This cordless version makes up for having no orbital action yet produces higher rpms than the electric model. This saw rocks just as the circular saw does. These are impressive cordless tools and that is no exaggeration. By the way, the sawzall also has the quick change blade system. No more hex keys. Thankfully.



I have not yet tried the flashlight so I cannot comment on this as of right now, although after reading other reviewers complain about the type of bulb it uses, I am certain it is still adequate as a light source when needed.



I can't believe these cordless tools perform this well. I was in the trades when cordless tools first came out and they were nothing more at that point than a novelty item, other than a few drills.



Milwaukee is, and has always been a great tool choice. I've owned several prior to this purchase, and they have lasted for years.



Buy this set, you won't have any regrets. Milwaukee 2694-24 M18 18-Volt 4-Tool Cordless Combo Kit

I got this set about a month ago and as a contractor, it has been a great time saver. I do a lot of small projects and punch work and the saws work great for this. Anytime I don't have to drag out extension cords I am happy. The circ saw has no problem cutting through 2x8's, miratec, plywood, etc. and easy to handle. The recip saw has plenty of power and easy to change blades. The driver is has great power and balance and is far less cumbersome and heavy as the Dewalt 18v. I added the impact and it is a bad ass tool that handles large lags and is well balanced and comfortable. The charge indicator on the battery is an asset as well. BTW this set was ranked the best in Fine Homebuiling Magazine's 18v lithium Ion test.

I initally bought two set of tools and gave one set to my dad for Christmas. Upon setting up he had the bolt that sets the circular saw blade break off in the saw. I contacted Amazon and would you believe had set to me within 3 working days. They gave me 30 days to get the broken one back, but got us a new set that fast. WOW! They also provided a packing label for UPS or FEDEX (I can't remember) so we didn't have to pay chipping for the new set or the broken set to get back to AMAZON.



This is a credit to both the retainer (Amazon) and I assume the manufacturer for staning behind their product.



I'm a true believer and very satisfied with the tools since this little incident.

Three years ago I purchased this set's predecessor, the Milwaukee 0925-24 for $230 on super sale. In reviewing the pieces listed the only difference between the sets are the drill & batteries. The drill in this set has 55 lbs more torque; other than that, their specs are essentially the same. The Lithium batteries, however, qualifies this set as a definite step up.

First off, let me say that I love every tool in MY set. The drill/driver is the most powerful in its class that I've ever used. A lot of my friends love their DeWalts, and they're great, but this Milwaukee seems to have more torque - it's able to finish off those long screws with much less effort. I must say that the DeWalts are smaller & lighter, but I would rather have the power. Also, the "hammer" action works surprisingly well, especially when drivers are used.

The circular saw has worked far beyond my expectations. The power in that little saw is amazing. I had never used a cordless saw before and was expecting this to be a specialty tool I'd use in unique situations - but no, I love this thing. The ad says you can cut 150 2x4s on a single charge, well, I never counted but it sounds true. I thought I'd only be cutting thin plywood or 1xs, but this thing has cahonies! I wouldn't cut compound miters on 2x12s, but just about anything else you want, it'll do. Like I said, I never had used a cordless saw before, nor have I used any other one - so my opinion as to performance is limited to my experience with the Milwaukee. Maybe there are better ones out there, but all I'm saying is this thing is great.

The Sawzall is great also - so much lighter than my cord PC Tigersaw. Other than its light, strong & does the job, I can't say much more - I've only used a half dozen times.

The light was something I thought I'd give away. But using it once was enough - it is mine! The battery represents about 90% of the assembled unit's weight. This makes the center of gravity of the light very low, making the unit very, very stable. The bulbs (18V) are very bright, but very expensive (~$10). The lamp adjusts to any angle you need and stays there. The NC batteries seem to work for ever in the thing; I can only imagine how long the Lithium ones would last. The bag is a tank. Everything is double stitched, heavy nylon cloth, reinforced bottom and plenty of pockets (inside & out).

This leads us to the batteries. Mine are NC and, all in all, I was satisfied with them despite some horrible reviews I've read. However, when I realized I wanted one or two more, I went with the Lithium ones --- big, big change as to working charge - big difference. They are supposed to be like 20% lighter & hold 50% more working charge. But what I really like about them is that there is no performance drop-off as the battery looses charge. It is just like digital TV reception, it is either working or it isn't. This same feature can also be very aggravating when you're finishing up something, you're 200ft or 1 ½ stories away from the charger & a fresh battery.

I will be honest - I tend to overwork, even abuse my tools. All of these items have held up wonderfully. There have been few tool purchases that I have been happier with. I'm sure any one, pro or hack, would love this set. - Combo Packs - 18 Volt - M18 - Cordless'

Digital Frame - digital picture frame, viewsonic

Visit Store Now !!

For the price, this Digital Frame is not terrible. I was expecting something a bit better but again, it's ok for a 480x234 resolution.



There's not on board memory but you can use a cheap SD or USB flash drive, just drop your pics there and you're ready. The menu is very basic as the unit itself.



If you can wait or pay for something better, then do it. Viewsonic'S VFA724W-10 7-Inch High Resolution Digital Photo Frame (Cherry Wood Frame)

I bought this digital photo frame for an older relative so I wasn't looking for anything with a lot of features... just nice and simple navigation and display. I had been pricing them for weeks beforehand and found it was VERY difficult to get a nice digital frame for anything less than $50--I'm so glad I found Viewsonic before I shelled out that kind of cash. This Viewsonic frame is easily the best value for your money ($29 when I bought it) and looks great. Unlike some of their competitors who use very cheap and wobbly plastic, this frame is made to look and feel just like wood, there is a nice white matte, and the entire thing is glass plated. Also, the stand is built into the frame and holds firm.



The image is stretched to fit the entirety of the frame--unlike other models which will leave an obnoxious edge around your photo--and the image quality is really bright, clear and crisp. I put a couple hundred photos on a USB flashdrive, plugged it in, and it was ready to go. Once I test drove the first one, I went out and bought one for myself... if you're not looking for special features (this one only appears to have pause, play, backwards, and forwards along with some image editing options) this is the perfect gift for yourself or someone you love. Simple but classy, I would definitely recommend it.

Not bad, and not good. The instruction manual is so poor it is almost funny.

If all you want to do is look at pictures stored on a SD memory chip is should be okay. Picture quality is good. Anything more complex can be a real challenge. I wanted to use a Memory Stick but could not get the Card Selection Screen to do anything but sit there. The only button that effected this screen put me to the Viewing Options screen so there was no way I could select using a Memory Stick. Somehow or other I also got to a totally undocumented screen that gave me three choices: Rotate Photo, Zoom Photo, or Adjust Color. I tried these options and now know why this screen is undocumented; the Adjust Color option is impossible to use.

The manual frequently refers to buttons to push that are non existent and to a remote control that does not come with the unit. Reference is made to a Play button followed by a weird symbol like this (>/ll). There is no Play button so the symbol probably means not in this edition. The best feature is the OFF button. It is like a reboot and works great.

We have a few high-dollar frames and they perform as expected. Frankly, I did not expect a ton considering the Viewsonic's price...but I was quite surprised. Easy to set up and a menu that was simple to sort through. Spend some time cropping your pics to 16:9 and they come out beautifully. Let the frame scale them and the quality will disappoint. The quality of the actual wood frame was astounding and was better than any of our expensive frames. We purchased multiple Viewsonics for gifts and they were a big hit. I took about 30 mins to crop and load pics on all of them and we have happy grandparents all over the country!

There is an undocumented menu for adjusting the images' brightness, contrast, tint, and color. However when you go to this menu option, brightness is the only option that is selectable to adjust, even though the other options have values that would seem to be changeable.



The result is that the images displayed, since those items cannot be adjusted, look poor at best...and thus this frame is not worth any price, unless you have been lucky enough to get a screen that looks okay. I apparently didn't.

The product arrived on time and in great condition. I am pleased with its performance and look, especially given the price I paid. It's a great buy if you want a simple digital frame, but it's not suited for a glamorous gift. Great budget buy!

If I had bought this in a brick and mortar store, I would return it. Wood frame is nice, sure, but image quality is awful. I bought this based on knowing View Sonic USED to have a good reputation for computer monitors. This product's display is FAR worse than the off brand drugstore model my husband bought me last year, for less. I wish I had bought the cheaper off model at the drugstore, since I bought this as a gift. I loaded a brand name SD card and plugged it in. Picture quality is very poor. I am more discerning than many though, and the person I bought this for MAY not notice. I sure notice. - Digital Picture Frame - Cheap - Viewsonic - Photo Frame'

Milwaukee 18v Lithium-ion - charger, 18v battery

Visit Store Now !!

THE LAST GUY SHOULD HAVE READ THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION!!!!! THE CHARGER IS FOR "M-18" BATTERIES, NOT "V-18". THE ADD SHOULD REALLY BE A LITTLE MORE DESCRIPTIVE, AS V-18 AND M-18 ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE. V-18 AND THE OLD NICADS ARE, BUT NOT M-18. NO REASON TO GIVE A 1 STAR AS THE CHARGER WORKS GREAT FOR THE RIGHT BATTERY Milwaukee 48-59-1801 M18 Lithium-Ion Battery Charger

We use an M18 Cordless wet/dry vac for field service. We are in and out all day. This charger and an M18 XC battery keeps up and helps us keep moving.



The order was filled quickly/tracked effectively/delivered promptly.

The Milwaukee Lithium Red line up is the best set of cordless power tools I've owned. Comapct and powerful they always perform. The charger has a dead battery up and running in as little as 15 minutes.

It is an original branded charger...very pleased with amazon..every time i buy something it says 5 to 10 days it allways takes them 3 to 5 days, best of it: free w/ super saver. don't know how. I used to be n..egg,ti..direct, etc. even that they sale on amazon too....tx

This charger works for M18 battery's but not the older V18. This is a quite confusing cause the m18 battery's say on the side 18V not M18 or V18 and you can't tell the difference by looking at the connection. I love my v18 tools and I have the newer lithium ion battery's but I guess they will be phased out even though some of my tools are less than 6 months old. Bad move by Milwaukee making the two types incompatible.They will probably loose my future business.

A smart charger, protects your batteries if too hot or cold. Smaller shape would be convenient. The pass through plug is a good feature for a crowded outlet. Open ventilation requires protection for moisture and dirt. 12 volt power converter option is a nice touch, but any converter with enough power will do the job.

Pros:Charges Quickly, Long Lasting, Powerful, Reliable Performance



Currently in the process of changing all of cordless tools to Lithium batteries. They last longer than making the job easier. These batteries perform under working conditions for more than a day at a time before needing a charge. - Charger - Chargers - Milwaukee 18v Lithium-ion - 18v Battery'
