Flatout Amazing! A vacation saver!

My wife and I recently took our 5 year old to Disney world on his Make a Wish trip. We are both rather heavy and chafe between the legs was a real concern for a place where we would be walking for hours on end in warm weather.

We followed the directions and put it on like you would deodorant, if you used it between your legs. We did it after the shower BEFORE we left in morning like it says to.

This stuff is like absolute magic. There was ZERO chafe and you wouldn't even know you put anything on.

We highly recommend this product.

We just got back from a 10 day trip with our two young children. We've used one set of this and it's a great invention! I packed one cube for each family member with enough clothes for 10 days. Jackets/Rain jackets were extra. We only took 2 suitcases, one small and a medium. Worked like a charm, I could just pull out the cube and get things without having to dig through the whole case. Highly recommended!

This is the coolest thing! It's about the size of an eyeglass case. Everything fits together in a sturdy, compact unit. The prongs lie flat for transport, and the cord retracts and clips into its own groove.

The device comes partially charged. I was able to juice up my Android phone once before plugging it in. It took a couple of hours to get the power unit fully charged. A set of blue lights on the top tells you when it's done. This one charge lasted me about five days, recharging my cell phone each morning for about half an hour or so.

I really like that you are not tied to an outlet when you charge your phone on this device. I was able to pull out the cord a bit, and have a conversation, or set my phone on top and carry it around to access my apps. It has a one-year warranty, so I recon it is built to last.

I would definitely have liked it even more if this came with an adapter for an older model iPhone. It works for the newer versions, but not my iPhone 4.

This would be a great device to use on a road trip, when camping or traveling. It lets you charge your phone without having to plug into an outlet or the cigarette lighter in a vehicle. It also beats being tied to an outlet at home for every day use. If you blow through the charge on your phone daily, then this is a must-have.

If you own a vacation home you know that people will ask to borrow it, you try to save money using energy efficient appliances, but when the time comes, you let friends and family use your vacation home, and what happens?
People almost always forget to turn down the AC or the HEAT... imagine getting your electricity bill for hundreds of dollars for a home that is barely used. Then you find out that the last one who used it, left the AC working day and night for a period of time!
This was a real issue for us.

So when I saw the NEST I was skeptical at first. I compared with the honeywell WIFI thermostat but I decided to go this way.
Let me tell you that this thing is worth every penny!
Its gorgeous! easy to use and very well thought... They even include a plastic plate to cover the holes of your old thermostat! amazing!

Easy to install, Easy to use and best of all, you can monitor your usage and know if your HVAC system is on or off!

It might be on the expensive side but if you are in a similar spot as the one I am, then believe me, it will pay for itself!

Please feel free to ask me any question you might have

This battery charger was awesome - easily my best purchase before my trip!!! Ordered it last minute a couple days before a trip to Europe and one full charge lasted over 3-4 days while repeatedly charging my and my family member's phones multiple times over that time sometimes simultaneously. Best of all, it seems to charge much faster than even a car or wall charger (similar to an adaptive fast charger). My cell would be flashing red, near dead, I'd plug it into this Yoobao backup pack, drop it in my purse and look back a couple minutes later to find my cell already over 20% charged or something. While it was not exactly lightweight (weighs a bit more than my Samsung Galaxy S6), I was happy to carry it around because it really saved us so many times while we were using our GPS, purchasing admission tickets online or searching reviews/restaurants/places to go as we were walking around a foreign city. I was concerned it would lose its capacity if I kept charging it even when it wasn't fully empty but I ended up choosing to do so toward the end since we really needed it often given how fast our phones would lose charge with all the activity (pictures/videos/searching for signal overseas/GPS/etc.) but I haven't noticed its capacity weaken even since we came back to the USA. Granted I've only owned the product for about a month, but I charged it fully after getting back to the US and then used it sparingly for a week and it still has a couple of bars of capacity left! I thought I would only use it during this trip but I've found it so convenient and powerful that I've been keeping it in my car and laptop bag and it's come in handy a few times even here. In any case, I haven't tried other backup battery packs but this one I can definitely recommend as a quality product. Thank you for sending it promptly! Great product, great seller!

Battery life is very important to me and to my family. We are always running around charging devices (since they are always in use). The NewTrent Xtreme even saved a recent (unplanned) trip out of town when I lost my High Power Dual Port USB Car Charger.

Out of the box [NewTrent packaging is always an eye catcher] that includes:

PowerPak Xtreme NT120R External Battery
A Micro-USB Charge Cable
User Instructions

Though the Xtreme is not light (11 oz), the exterior hosts a rubberized TPU liner and the interior [battery compartment door] is crafted of polycarbonate. I did not have any problems opening/shutting the battery compartment door. The compartment door also lists the ports externally: [5V1a] is for your SmartPhone and 5V21A is for your tablet, so there is no confusion regarding device charging ports. With the compartment door open - you will see 3 ports [middle port is the battery charging port], and a nice touch to the product design is the rubberized gaskets that protect the ports when the compartment door is closed.

I fully charged the Xtreme with a USB wall adapter for 10 hours until all the bars were a solid blue (you can also connect it to your laptop to charge it via a USB port). With 12,000 mAh of recharging power - there is plenty of power in this battery pack to recharge your devices multiple times - and I did!

It easily fully charged mobile phones [iPhone 4S | iPhone 5c] but it did not fully charge my iPad mini. I shut it down at 2% and the Xtreme tapped out of juice at 98%  .I am fine with that since I am far more dependent upon having multiple recharge capabilities on my iPhone.

Cons

The only con that I could find with the Xtreme was the power button. I would redesign the button with a different color [such as bright red or neon green].

In conclusion: I am very happy with the Xtreme and am confident that this is a savvy mobile charging solution for those who travel. It would also be great for camping (where the grounds do not have electrical outlets available) since the power pack does hold multiple charges. I've also found it invaluable for my current office space since I use just about every plug in my work space for office equipment. It is also a great device to charge your devices at night [while you are sleeping] because there are no LED lights to keep you awake.

This was my first time traveling with eBag Packing Cubes and I will never go back to regular packing. I bought the cubes in small, medium and slim sizes (3 of each size), and that combination was perfect for a nearly two week river cruise/car trip to France. Unpacking and packing was a breeze, as I was able to leave items such as underwear, bras, socks, swimsuits, shorts, sweats and pajamas packed and just place the cubes in the hotel/stateroom drawers. I even packed one of the small cubes with an "emergency" change of clothes and shoes to carry in my backpack on the plane in case my suitcase got lost in transit. I love that the cubes have mesh at each end so that you can see the contents, plus the double zippers allow you to easily unzip just a portion of the cube to get to what you need, or unzip all the way to pack/unpack. The strap handle on the end is great for transporting the cubes to/from the hotel room drawers/closets. I would highly recommend these to anyone who travels on a regular basis. They are such a time saver and eliminate the frustrating mess you normally make as you dig to the bottom of your suitcase to get "just one thing." With these, you just unstack and shift the cubes to get to the cube you need, remove the one item, and put the cubes back in place. Genius!

I bought these on a whim and wasn't sure if they were necessary for my 2-week trip to Europe in December. However, they are worth every penny! I bought a set for myself and another for my husband and during our trip, we were both thankful for them. They really save space and help keep things organized. I used the flat folder for dressier sweaters, shirts, and clothes. The bigger cube I used to roll up t-shirts, thermals, and sleepwear. I used the smaller cube for bras and underwear. My husband needed another big cube to organize his clothes so I purchased one separately. Not all of my apparel fit in the cubes. I packed my bulkier sweaters and jeans in my suitcase without an organizer but everything was still easy to find. I chose this starter set over the more modern and lighter Specter set because I liked how the zipper and cover design allows you to have full access to what's inside the cube.

I also purchased the Eagle Creek Shoe Sac (one for me and two for my husband) as well as the 3-Piece Sac Set to organize electronic devices and random toiletries. For our trip, we each brought one 25-inch suitcase (Travelpro Marquis) and no carry-on luggage. We still had a good amount of room in each suitcase to bring back souvenirs and clothes we purchased overseas.

Living in a hotel for the next 3 months with work and wanted something that would travel easy and be outstanding to use with my phone or laptop.  Compared this unit to everything I could at Best Buy.  Blew everything away in its price point.  Amazing and worth every penny!

I have a lot of trips coming up for the rest of this year. Two conferences, a trip to Disney World for a 1/2 marathon, and a trip to visit family. I would say I am pretty busy.

Over the summer I purchased an awesome mini suitcase just in time to travel to California for a Race Weekend. I needed a small sized suitcase in which I wouldnt have to check anything on the airplane (I don't want anything to be late or lost when I am going to run a race!) It was the perfect size for me to squeeze everything in, but it was not at all organized. The minute I opened the suitcase, everything fell out.

This is where the Dot & Dot Small Packing Cubes come in handy! Coming in a set of four cubes, each one perfectly holds one outfit. It is a great way to keep everything together: top, bottom, socks, and underwear. It has a mesh front so you can see the contents of each cube, and all four cubes fit perfectly into my suitcase, with room to spare. When I finally got to my location, I was so happy to open my suitcase and not have all my clothes go flying everywhere. I really like having each of my outfits separated because then I don't have to think about to wear in the morning! I am looking forward to using these cubes to help organize my race outfits for my Half Marathon in two weeks :)

These cubes come in different sizes and colors according to your needs. I really want to get a shoe cube so I have someplace safe to protect my running shoes while traveling (instead of just sticking them into a plastic bag)

My one complaint is due to cosmetics. Upon opening the package, I noticed that each cube had a small black discoloration. I emailed the company and they said they would check in with the factory. It doesnt effect the use of the cube, but it makes it cheap looking. (By the way, the cubes seem to be of a high quality material. I can see them lasting for a long time.)

I really recommend the use of these packing tubes to help organize yourself when traveling. I like the ease of being able to grab an individual tube per day and not having to worry about everything else getting unfolded, wrinkled, and messed up.

I love these things!!!
Would gladly pay twice as much.

I jump started my Chevy Avalanche three times in one day without re-charging.
Used it to run a 36" TV & DVD player & charged two smartphones during a power outage.
Power came back on before juice ran out but I estimate it would have lasted two full movies.

When something is connected, press a button and it tells you how many watts are being drawn.
When not in use, the same button tells you the current % charge.

To prolong it's life, always fully re-charge after every use (no matter how brief) or every month.

In response to the person who mentioned the storage of accessories, here's what I did.
Get one of these or similar:
<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Black-US-Army-Style-Travel-Kit-Case-Cotton-Canvas/dp/B004RQAAEO/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Black - US Army Style Travel Kit Case (Cotton Canvas)</a>

Put all accessories in this bag and then secure bag to the handle of the XP2260 - you will never lose the power supply, inflation pieces or instructions.

I bought this mini travel router almost 6 months ago and it almost immediately became my favorite 'can't live without it' device.  I travel most weeks out of the year and being able to call the Internet Helpdesk of the hotel I am staying at (almost 100% Hilton) and have them manually set my MAC address for the duration of my stay is about a 3 minute process.  From then on, all of my devices (Laptop, Tablet, Roku, Phone, etc.) connect secured wireless to the HooToo and I don't have to re-authorize every device once every 24 hours.  Saving that hassle ALONE is worth the cost of the device.

But, wait, there's more!

Secure Wireless?  Oh, yea!  So, my wireless comms are WPA2 encrypted instead of the non-encrypted complementary wireless that you get at EVERY hotel.  Is it a magic silver bullet for security, no.. But, every little bit helps.

Oh!  You thought that was everything.. Silly you!

DLNA Server!  Want to watch a movie on your laptop.. tablet.. or that cheap little Roku stick you bought?  Throw a USB stick or Hard Drive into the USB Storage port and enable the DLNA server on the HooToo.. Done and done.  To HooToo: Consider enabling more file formats in your next firmware update if possible.  MP4 is great but adding AVI and MKV would be epic sweet.

Last but not least, and I am certain I am forgetting something wonderful about this little Black Box Swiss Army Knife, the battery!  It will literally run almost all day on one battery charge.  Yes, it will run all of it's functions from the onboard battery!  Or!  If you don't need the functions but you need to juice your phone or tablet?  2.1 Amps, right there..

AH! I remembered what I had forgotten.  Support!  I wanted to load the latest firmware and couldn't get it to run.  Emailed support and got a perfect answer/solution within an hour!  Now that is good!  BTW - when updating firmware, be sure to plug in a blank USB stick (doesn't have to be a huge thing 1 or 2 GB should be plenty) so that the HooToo has a place to do storage and backup while it's updating. Easy Peasey!

We've had these radios in sub-zero temperatures while skiing, hiking through the "canyons" of Venice, Italy, and everywhere in between. I've spoken at ranges of up to 8 miles on a clear day with no intervening terrain. These things are G-R-E-A-T!!! Get one for every family member. Whether it is on vacation or the mall -- they make life so much easier. No more, "we'll meet back here in 2 hours," and no more using a cell phone to find someone two stores away in the mall. You want them, you need them -- buy them!

I often find myself cursing at the power strip beside my bed for not having enough outlets - with an iPhone charger, bluetooth headphones charger, portable battery pack charger and various others plugged in, trying to find space for a lamp and alarm clock is a hassle! It wasn't until I started researching chargers with multiple USB ports that I found the Arctic Pro 4 charging brick. Arctic Cooling sent me this charger to evaluate in exchange for an honest review.

PROS
- Four USB ports is enough for most people, and all four charge simultaneously!
- Power brick is relatively small, about the size of an Apple laptop charger
- Has three different types of circuit protection, great in countries with iffy power
- US power plug folds in so it isn't sticking out
- I love the gray, semi-matte finish. Very understated yet pretty classy
- Optional adapters for "over 100 countries"

NEUTRAL
- Adapters sold separately

CONS
- None that I could find.

I listed the adapter being sold separately as a neutral and not a con for this reason: it helps keeps the cost down for those that don't travel, or don't travel often. This way you can save a few bucks, and only buy the adapters if you know you're going abroad! I tested this charger with an iPhone, iPad, bluetooth headphones and a wireless battery-powered speaker, and all charged nicely with no noticeable slow-down versus individual chargers. I haven't had any occasion to test the circuit protection features (fingers crossed), but it's nice to know it's there!

OVERALL
I really have no gripes about this charger. It's inexpensive, well-made and really cuts down on the clutter by my nightstand. It travels well, and is very portable! I'm very pleased, and can definitely recommend this charger without hesitation.

As a high-tech user of many different gadgets, this has to be one of the best purchases I have made so far this year.  It charges my Motorola Droid - which is known for its wimpy battery life and dies several times a day, my iPod touch, my Kindle and even my laptop!  I get 6 full charges out of this little guy before I have to plug him in and charge him.  It's a great product.  If you spend your life on-the-go for business, or if you find yourself in airports and on planes a lot, buy this. It is so great to have this backup on hand whenever I need it.  Put it in your laptop bag/purse and you are set!

I purchased this product so I could easily take my xbox 360 along with me on my travels. I am very impressed with the quality of the visual as well as audio aspects. There is plenty of room in the G155 to hold all the cords you need as well as at least 1 xbox controller. One of my best purchases this year without a doubt!

Used this for a 10-week trip to Swaziland, South Africa, and layovers in Europe. THIS WAS A LIFESAVER and totally worth it especially if you're traveling and know that free, working outlets are a luxury that is rare to find! It does take a while to charge up itself, so my husband and I would try to fully charge it anytime we found an outlet - hotels we'd plug it in overnight. The case is really nice because it fit the battery, both charging cables (for itself and for our phones), and even outlet adapters. Digging around a bag for a tiny outlet adapter really sucks.

I'd recommend this to anyone who travels. Since we've been home, it's been sitting on the coffee table. We just don't need it that often when we're at home.
