Please read the reviews, this product is horrible!! Chirping at 3:30 AM for NO REASON is the norm. I've had 3 of these, new backup batteries and all, and they all fail. Go elsewhere, I am.

MusicPower 0900-71 Duet Two-USB Port AC Charger

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Lighting and Electrical
from: MusicPower


Output voltages on this unit are 2.5V and 1.5V. Neither voltage is enough to charge the Razr. The Razr charger is rated at 5.0V. Before you assume this low-voltage charger will work with your device, check the output of the charger it came with (or the input requirement listed in the owner manual). I suspect it would have trouble charging myriad USB devices. Kensington's 4-port USB charger costs nearly $30 but it puts out the full 5V at 2.0 amps; that's the one I'm buying to replace this mistake. Kensington K38035US 4-Port USB Charger for Mobile Devices

GE 50246 SmartHome Door Stop Alarm

Use ear protection to test this door stopper alarm. It is ear splitting. It is not designed to stop anyone...just let you know the door has been pushed, even slightly.

PLUG ADAPTER - CONVERTS GROUNDED USA PLUGS TO EUROPE PLUG-GERMAN SHUCKO PLUG (VP 11W)

from: VCT


Bought a few of these plugs prior to moving to Spain. They fit very well into the socket and have a real nice low profile design. Can't get anything similar that that here locally. I wish I had brought more with me.

LightWedge Original LED Book Light, Black

If the photos of how this product lights a page were only HALF accurate, it would have been a good purchase. Lightwedge is worse than nothing. The puny light makes arcs around the insufficient TWO LEDs that are its source, the middle of the page is dark and distorted, and only the far edge projects any brightness at all. You can see more with a good LED flashlight!

Coleman Cable 02469 14/3 100-Foot Hi-Visibility/Low-Temperature Outdoor Extension Cord

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Lighting and Electrical
from: Coleman Cable


This cord lasted only 4 uses. On the 5th use it caught on fire and burned my $90 Toro leaf blower. On the packaging there are the words "LIFETIME WARRANTY" but when I contacted Coleman Cable they said that their warranty is only good for items that didn't work at all, not for items that failed after use (sounds like an excuse). So I lost $40 on the cord and $90 on the leaf blower.

Stay away from this product and stay away from Coleman Cable!

Mobi TykeLight Portable GloMate

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Lighting and Electrical
from: MOBI


I have purchased the TykeLights in the past for my kids. MOBI has done a great job with their newest one the GloMate. We just got 3 of them and my kids wont put them down. Even during the day. They have solid colors or a rainbow mode that goes through all of the colors. My kids put them on the charger base and take them off when they want to play with them. No touching power cords. I feel totally safe with these. I highly reccomend these. They are too cute.

BRK Brands SC9120B Hardwire Combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarm with Battery Backup

Childrens Toy Shop > Tools & Hardware > Lighting and Electrical
from: BRK Brands

May 02, 2007
Originally had BRK alarms, but did research anyway as my alams were 15 years old. After doing my research decided on replacing all four of my existing alarms with this model, SC9120B. For just a few dollars more I figured it was worth having the CO2 detector on all levels of the house. Installation was simple, I replaced the connectors with the power on, if you are careful and do not ground yourself if is much faster. You will get a shock if you are not careful. Actually I got one when doing the cathedral ceiling unit. The units went right in. HOWEVER one of the units was defective, it worked but did not trigger the other units to go off. After some switching of units I was able to determine it was the unit. Reqested a replacement, got it, installed it, ... Read More:
