Reviews
"To make a long story longer, for some weird reason I thought that if I didn't hold onto my hat while hubby was driving the boat, that it would actually stay on my head even though it's never happened before. Obviously when I kicked my feet up, I kicked the Robo Cup Clamp off the boat that happened to be holding a custom made Tervis Tumbler that my wonderful, handsome, who's the wind beneath my wings (I think he's reading this) received from a rum company at a fishing tournament. CLEARLY he's irritated until he turns the boat around and sees that not only is the Tervis Tumbler is safely wedged in the cup holder, but that even though the cup WAS full, they both were floating."
"I wasn't sure about this product after what seemed like eternity trying to find a friggin cup holder for my skiff, so at the last moment I just clicked BUY!"
"We needed a cupholder for a one scooter and the options are wide and varied with little rhyme nor reason."
"They replied instantly to an email I sent inquiring about a replacement for a lost cap..."
"The clamping system is extremely solid and have never fallen off...even when going 70mph across the water. We take these camping as well as they will clamp to any cylindrical item up to about 1 3/4 inch in diameter."
"My only complaint is that the cup wasn't quite enough to put my iPhone 7 plus in so that I could maneuver my scooter with both hands - that was one of my reasons for buying it."
"I've mounted it to beach umbrellas, legs on a pop up 10x10 canopy, rails on my boat, swim ladder handles."
"bought this to attach to a knee scooter after foot surgery."

Reviews
"With a short topshot, this braid has cut thru lots of kelp while fighting yellowtail off my kayak."
"Here's what i found. Pro's: 1- Price. 2- Strength; tested 100yrds in 3,5,10,15 feet incriments (3 times each length) and averaged ~16.6lb breaking strength. Would be higher, but a couple of the shorter length tests broke at the knot below 10lbs (likely my error). Got tangled up in oyster covered rocks, 30lb mono leader was broke and the portion of braid that was tangled up was a little frayed, similar to what PowerPro does after using it for a while."
"Super tough string."
"I would recommend this line to any angler whether novice or expert level fisherman & fisherwoman, this line is perfect for everyone and is both mins and my wife's #1 go to line every time since we first discovered it!"
"Minimal backlash and if any pulls out with ease. Won't break it with your hands, even a knife has its struggle."

"They are larger to store, have distance limitations, have the possibility or crossing the connection, and are a pain to fold back into their undersized pouch.

"Construction is solid and much higher quality than the asking price suggests."
"Wife loves her pair of sun glasses."
"Great product for the price, definitely worth the small investment."
"Was surprised that the glare off the read window (those annoying bright spots that blind you) was completely alleviated by these glasses."
"Nice aviators."
"It did take some time to get used to the brown lenses, especially now since the sky is filled with smoke from the forest fires and it seems to make it look worse than it really is."
"For example, I can only see the screen on my phone through one eye... in the other eye, the polarization is opposite of my phone and it appears black... until, of course, I rotate my phone, then the problem is reversed - the eye that could see the phone can't, and the other now can."

Best Fishing Reels

Penn Battle II Spinning Fishing Reel
The reel's HT-100 Versa-Drag carbon fiber drag system leverages both sides of each drag washer to provide maximum drag, and its instant anti-reverse bearing eliminates pullback so you reel without interruption. Full metal body, sideplate, and rotor and heavy-duty aluminum bail wire offer exceptional durability.
Reviews
"I however removed it from the drive shaft and line bushing and replaced with Penn reel oil. Non-sealed saltwater reels should be easy to take apart and put back together because if you dunk one that is what you will be doing. The screws don’t get boogered up with standard screwdrivers and are easy to take off. However, Penn departed from their easy to service design philosophy on the roller bearing and anti-reverse switch. Penn really dropped the ball IMO on the design of the roller bearing assembly and anti reverse switch. This extra hole goes uncovered and is an entry point for saltwater to get under the rotor. I like this better than a pin type handle that you insert into the reel and screw down with a retaining cap on the other side of the body. I personally think bearings on the line roller and handle are a sales gimmick with no advantage in a small reel. However, if you are going to service and repair your reels yourself, can live without the anti-reverse switch and don’t mind a little more weight, I would get the 3000."
"I purchased 2 of these to replace some older reels on their last leg. My Penn Sargus 3000 has lasted over 6 years and has been a solid performer, caught tons of fish but it too is on it's last leg so I got 2 battle II 3000 and one 4000 to compliment my arsenal."
"This thing is built like a tank, just like the original Battle series reels."
"Feels smooth, haven't fished with it yet."
"This is a very nice, smooth casting reel."
"Performed well at the jetty and had no trouble pulling in blackfish and skates(stingrays) fighting against the current."
"Exactly what I expected."
"Heavy!"

Nesco FD-75A Snackmaster Pro Food Dehydrator, White - MADE IN USA
Opaque Vita-Save exterior helps block harmful light which destroys nutritional content of food being dehydrated. The hot air is forced horizontally across each individual tray, converging on the core for fast, even and nutritious drying.
Reviews
"I bought this dehydrator sort of like many people did: after reading the things you can do with it, I got all excited, thinking, "I'm going to dehydrate EVERYTHING and it's going to be amazing!!!" So far, I've used the dehydrator to make a couple of batches of each of: - Apple chips (thin apple slices soaked for a few hours in a combo of lemon juice and cranberry juice, then dried). - beef jerky (this dehydrator comes with a starter park for jerky, plus I made my own marinade the next time). - chicken jerky. - bacon bits (the ends and "bad cuts" of my own home-cured, smoked bacon, finely chopped, cooked, and then dehydrated. The temperature can be dialed in from 95ºF to 160ºF as printed on the top (remember that problem I mentioned? Well, I have tested the actual running temperature of the dehydrator against the printed values on the dial, and they're not even close. I used several methods to determine the temperature: 1) A Mastercool Digital Infrared Thermometer pointed directly into an exhaust vent (see photo) with the dial set to the maximum 160ºF. 4) A digital metal probe thermometer (Lavatools Thermowand) inserted into both the upper and lower exhaust ports. In all cases (except #3, which responded too slowly) I was able to see the lower temperature at which the heater kicked on, as well as the upper temperature at which the heater turned off (in theory, this would be right around the number printed on the dial). - At the 135ºF setting on the dehydrator, the actual temperature maxed out at around 120ºF, at which point the heater turned off and the temperature dropped slowly until the heater came back on. - At the 160ºF setting (maximum), it was the same story but with an actual temperature topping out at around 135ºF. What concerns me is this unit's suitability for jerky -- the minimum recommended temperature for any meat is 160ºF when making jerky. I'm not too terribly concerned about the beef jerky because I routinely eat beef at a much lower temperature than that (though it does make a good case for refrigerating the jerky in this case), but the chicken jerky could have gone pretty badly!"
"The 3rd reason I love this dehydrator is simple, it produces the best tasting dehydrated foods I've ever had, I'm and avid outdoorsman and have dehydrated everything from deer to turkey, family friends insist I start selling the jerky made with this product. With all that being said, if you have a dehydrator that is getting old/malfunctioning or just want to start making your own dehydrated foods, this product is for you, don't pass this one up, you will not be dissatisfied with your purchase."
"First, lets talk about performance: Only in a few ocasions I could dry something with less than 12 hours using a moderate temperature and thin slices. But a 4,5 or 4,7 stars would be more fair, since this dehydrator has a lot of good points and we live in a very humid area, in the sea coast. I think if you are willing to put some peppers in a dehydrator, you should use very low temperatures, those used to dry herbs and other fragile stuff. I can not believe some people say this dehydrator makes some undesirable noise to the point that they need to put them in a room far from their bedroom otherwise they couldn't sleep! The gray and white marble finish fits incredibly well in any room, like it's camouflaged, hard to explain. Dehydrated fruits leave virtually no residue, they stick very lightly to the trays and can be easily pulled out. Not a single banana or any other fruit like apples got stuck in the trays to the point that they couldnt be removed easily with the fingers, and entire, not in fragments. (Room temperature: 28 Celsius) With 9 trays full of fruits: 1st hour: 650 Watts (average). Explanation: the first hours take more power because the machine is heating the trays so the thermostat rarely turns off. After a few hours, the thermostat only activates ocasionally to refresh the temperature, since the trays are already heated and only need a maintenance to keep the warm air flow. When the electric resistance turns off, the measure of wattage reads 28 watts, that's the power consumption of the fan (negligible). I will update this review if anything unexpected occurs, or if I have any important thing to add, like new food experiences, et cetera. To finish this review, I'd like to apologize for my awful English, I had a hard time writting this because I am not a native speaker, so tell me if something sounds odd or particularly unusual, I can clarify your questions in the comments section."

"I like the pliers and the lanyard to help not losing them into the lake."
"My biggest issue with them are that they are difficult to unlatch and open."
"I love everything about these split ting pliers."
"Bottom line- these are not stainless steel or they are such poor quality that the stainless steel rusted after the first use."
"As others have noted, these pliers are so cheap that comparing them to more expensive pliers becomes an unfair comparison, but there is a time when cheap is too cheap, and these hit that mark. The colored plastic grips measure exactly 3" long, and that is way too small for my average sized male hands; I can only get 3 of my 4 fingers on the grip and the pointy butt end of the other grip lands midway down the meaty base of my thumb -- not pleasant to use at all whilst sitting at my desk, never mind whilst actually using them with some force."
"When I got these I expected better first of all it didn't bring the case I was promised and second these are smaller than I thought and last they don't seem that durable If you were to squeeze them slightly you could feel it kind of bending."
"Garbage and so flimsy they are useless."
