La Crosse Technology BC-900 AlphaPower Battery Charger

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Specialty Stores
from: La Crosse Technology


There is a hidden danger to buying the BC-900 (and I'm sure it applies to the BC-700) that hasn't been written about yet.

When you catch up testing and refreshing and charging all of your rechargeable batteries, there's a let-down or feeling of ennui as you realize there are no more batteries to fix. It makes you want to run radios and flashlights just to run down the batteries.

Perhaps we can call it the "empty battery nest syndrome"...

La Crosse Technology WS-9611U Wireless Sun/Moon Weather Station with 15 Advanced Forecast Icons

For the price, this is a great little weather station. Check the dimensions, it is fairly small, but just big enough to sit on our kitchen counter to be checked several times a day. I like the little man, his predictions of rain are pretty accurate, although he often bundles up a bit sooner than I do. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase.

AeroGrow AeroGarden with Gourmet Herb Seed Kit, Black

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Specialty Stores
from: Aerogrow

February 10, 2007
I have had my Aerogarden since May'08, and as of this review, 11/13/08, the first seed kit is still going.

All you have to do is read the directions, takes about 5 mins, and turn it on. 7 weeks later I had fresh herbs to use in my cooking.

Do you know how great it is to put fresh basil on all of your italian dishes? Without even going to the store?

I love to cook, and using the fresh herbs has opened up a new arena.

Some of these herbs are $5 for 4 oz at the store in those little plastic containers. This is right in your home.

The "value" of it will pay for itself in the long run, but defiantly, not within the first year of so.

Flat out, this is a great machine, ... Read More:

La Crosse Technology WS-7014CH-IT Wireless Weather Station

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Specialty Stores
from: La Crosse Technology

January 15, 2007
I am very satisfied with this item. I like its great look (matches with my room decor), performance, accuracy of data and particularly instant (continuous) data transfer from the outdoor Swiss made precision sensor that came with the weather station. The forecast icon (Sunny, Cloudy and rainy) based on changing barometric pressure provides a good visual indication of expected weather. Along with above it has a good digital clock showing atomic time and date with provision for manual setting plus alarm function. I would highly recommend this item to others for home or office use.

Great product. We enjoy having the time and temp alternately flash onto bedroom ceiling, so we don't have to roll over and look at the clock in the middle of the night.

La Crosse Technology WT-5120U Projection Alarm Clock with Outdoor Temperature

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Specialty Stores

This is a functional atomic clock. It is a little small, but the projection feature is interesting. Back-light is good for checking the time in the dark. This clock did not switch to daylight-savings on its own, had to adjust manually. We have not tried the outdoor temperature feature yet.

Bounty Hunter Tracker IV Metal Detector

Childrens Toy Shop > Outdoor Living > Specialty Stores
from: Bounty Hunter


Well, as the title states, I had lost my wedding band at a job site. I was not too confident I would find it, since the job site was in rough, New Hampshire terrain. Sand, Granite boulders, goats, chickens, electrical wire, and anything else you can imagine was around the 2 acres. And to top it off, It is end of Autumn here so the leaves are 2 feet deep in some places. I was very sad about losing my ring.

I ordered the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV and had it shipped one day via fedex. It arrived on time and I assembled it easily. Installed 2-9V batteries and I was all set to test it out. I used a gold necklace I have to zero in on what gold would sound like if detected. It gives a low tone. I set the tracker to "tone" and the sensitivity ... Read More:
