Cheap TAG Heuer Men’s Link Caliber 5 Automatic Watch #WJ201A.BA0591 Review

I was very excited to purchase a perpetual motion TAG Link, as I have always wanted a self-winding watch. It’s very well made, heavy, classy, understated, and I have gotten a lot of nice compliments on it. However, if anyone asks you the time, be prepared to be embarrassed by giving them the wrong answer. I have gotten used to taking my watch off when I enter my house, and I set it on a cabinet. I discovered about a month after purchasing it, that the whole point of perpetual motion is that it has to keep moving to keep working! It’s been frustrating to have to reset the time and date once a week when it stops on its own. I’ve been late to appointments and have written the wrong date on documents because of this. Otherwise, it’s a phenomenal conversation piece– everyone recognizes a good TAG when they see one.

Cheap Omega Men’s Speedmaster Broad Arrow Olympic Edition Automatic Chronograph Watch #3557.50.00 Review

I was a bit leery about ordering an expensive watch from a non-authorized dealer but so far, I am very happy with the purchase. I received it in new condition and with all the documentation. I took it to an Omega jeweler to have the band adjusted and he validated the authenticity of the watch.

I’ve had this watch for several months now. I like it. I wear it everyday. I travel with it. I snorkel with it. It keeps good time. It’s a good looking watch.

Cheap Schumacher SE-5212A Automatic Handheld Battery Charger Review

I bought this unit back in 2002 for those rare dead battery situations and so it has sat around unused for the majority of that time. Recently I have been trying to revive a troubled battery and have been using it more often – typically a few minutes every day. It has served me VERY well. One complaint I heard elsewhere was regarding the lack of a light for the meter, which I will echo here. It does seem odd that they have a power-on LED, but no light for the meter itself.

One little concern that hasn’t really been a problem for me is that fact that it WILL put out much more than 2 amps in the 2 amp charging mode. I have a Fluke digital ammeter and have checked the charger on a few occasions now when charging batteries. The 2 amp mode has been normally putting out between 3 and 6 amps. The manual (which covers 3 different models) is not real clear about this, so I thought I would elaborate. Between reading the manual and my own observations, I will say that the 10 amp mode starts out at 10 with a drained battery and tapers off down to 5 amps (when it will automatically shut off), whereas the 2 amp mode seems to start as high as 7 amps and tapers down to .34 amps(and shuts off).

Cheap Schumacher SSC-1000A Automatic Speed Battery Charger Review

With temps dipping down to -4 degrees lately, going out to my car to find it wont start is a real drag on a cold morning. My battery is an Optima red top, and its less than 9 months old…so I had a hard time thinking it went bad.

I received my SSC-1000A charger and ran out to the garage to figure out whats going on. I couldn’t believe how light and small the charger was. All the cables (power, charger clamps) store neatly inside the unit which I though was great for storage.

I hooked up the cable clamps to my dead battery and watched the LED screen. It read 11.3 volts and 17% charge…I toughed out the freezing temps and stood watching the battery, slowly it came up but wouldn’t get over 12 volts. I had my buddy jump the car and re-connected the charger, long story short my battery failed internally. I popped the + terminal off to check the alternator, things were fine there.

I ran the battery back to the auto store and exchanged it out. I returned home to hook the charger up to the new battery. It read 13.8 volts, and 65% charged, it started my ice cold car no problem.

I left the charger on the battery to monitor any drops in power, then turned it on to charge the new battery to 100%, the charger is a real life saver, and the LED screen saves having to pull out your voltmeter. I would highly recommend this charger to anybody who wants a versatile trickle/slow/fast charger, with options for all sorts of battery types.

You’ll thank me on those cold winter days.

Cheap Pro-Quality 1/4″ 200 Inch-Pound Automatic Torque Wrench Review

Good Torque wrench for your buck, shipping was prompt and packaged very well, and comes with convenient carry case.I used it a few times and seems durable; only issue i have noticed is when you set your inch lbs. on the adjustment knob, it doesn’t lock in place, it is held there snug, but no locking mechanism to hold it in case your wrist turns it a little while tightening. For the price it is a very good product, i would reccomend this tool to anyone interested in a good Torque Wrench for a great price.
