Makita BMR100W 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless FM/AM Job Site Radio, Bare Tool Only

Makita BMR100W 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless FM/AM Job Site Radio, Bare Tool Only
  • Delivers rich stereo sound from two powerful 3.25-inch side-firing speakers
  • 10 pre-set FM/AM buttons and MP3 compatibly
  • Protective bumper design for added durability
  • Makita compact lithium-ion battery and Energy Star rated 15-minute rapid optimum charger produces 430 percent total lifetime work with 2.5 times more cycle
  • 3-year warranty on radio

I wanted a shop radio that played mp3 and wasn't a 25 pound suitcase that used up half a workbench. The radio sounds fine even in a big open 1200'sf shop although the speakers are only 3". The compact design fits right on a shelf and it appears to be fairly dust resistant. It uses both types of Makita rechargeable batteries which is handy if you have a lot of the old NIMH pods. It has alarm and clock functions and two inputs for AUX components but the downside was the sound from an ipod. It just is not very loud even at full volume on both units. I tried both a hd based and a nano flash ipod. Sound was just ok but disappointing if you want loud music. Perhaps some newer generation mp3 players would sound better but I have encountered this problem before patching in an ipod to another unit. There are no tone controls so what you hear is what you get. Overall this is a nice rugged compact job/shop radio but just a so so mp3 device.

This radio is everything I expected it to be. Rugged, small footprint, stylish, has great sound (amazing base response considering the size) digital presets for AM and FM radio, water/dust tight compartment for tool battery and or Ipod/mp3 player or to store included 12v power adapter. I use an Ipod shuffle connected to the auxiliary in #2 jack located inside the sealed compartement. It works flawlessly. The radio locks on well to FM stations and not bad for AM stations (I like to listen to talk radio as well). The presets are great and easy to access. The dual function tuner dial is very smooth. Push it in and it changes volume, press again and it changes tuning. Also has channel search function, auto off function for those who like to fall asleep with radio on, wake up tone alarm and clock radio function. Also has 2 AA battery backup inside water proof compartment to save presets and displays the time on the lcd screen. The lcd screen lights up when any button is pressed then shuts off after a short delay to save power. All in all a great radio. So what it doesn't charge batteries. I use cordless tools all the time and generally don't use the stock charger anyway. I buy the fast chargers so don't need another with the radio. It would have been nice to include the transformer inside the unit so a regular 120v a/c cord plug could be used when not using a Makita battery. Oh by the way, I don't own any Makita tools anymore so I just use the power adapter. No problem. I've used the Bosch, Milwaukee, and seen the new Ridgid jobsite radio's. They are all large, bulky, heavy,loaded with unesessary features and parts break off of them. I am enjoying this radio very much and highly recommend it.

This is a great sounding radio that's durable. The "shell" around it is very well made and it feels indestructible. The sound quality is great, although sorta directional, and the tuner works better than the Dewalt. The dials have a solid feel to them. I bought the white one with the auxillery plug for my Ipod and it works well. The drawbacks are the same for everyone: It doesn't charge a battery and it has a seperate AC adapter that could easily get lost or damaged. All in all I like it and would recommend it to someone who has Makita Li-ion cordless tools.

Want Makita BMR100W 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless FM/AM Job Site Radio, Bare Tool Only Discount?

This radio is designed for people who (1) already own Makita power tool batteries and (2) want a rugged portable radio. It does not come with its own battery, and does not charge batteries (including the one used to power the radio). It is not hard wired for AC. You need to plug a not-so-rugged AC adapter into the front of the unit. Although the radio will probably survive being kicked or dropped, the AC adapter/wires/plug may not.

For those who like to take naps at their job sites, it includes a sleep function and alarm!

Overall, this radio was designed for a specific job, and does its job very well.

Just got our radio the other day. As everyone says, the sound is pretty good for a simple jobsite radio. I'd like to adjust the tone, as it is a little too biased toward bass for me, but not too bad. Probably OK out in the open air rather than in the garage or house.

Note that you cannot use the internal AUX2 input with al LXT (or probably any other slide type) battery. The input is right behind the battery. You can't put the aux plug in first, nor the battery and then the plug. I even bought a 90 degree adaptor, but it still doesn't work. You must use the front external AUX1 input, which is not much protection for your MP3 player.

I'd give it 5 stars otherwise, but this lack of foresight drops it at least one star.

Bon-Aire WH160C 12V Air Compressor

Bon-Aire WH160C 12V Air Compressor
  • Inflates vehicle tires, bike tires, sports balls and more
  • Powerful motor - 120 Volts
  • Lighted pressure gauge for easy reading
  • On-board accessories storage - off/auto on rocker switch
  • Built-in power cord and air hose wraps

I bought this air compressor at Costco and I'm not sure why the previous reviewer thought a clamp could be clipped on the air hose. It wouldn't maintain a proper seal that way under the amount of air pressure going through the hose. The Bonaire rep was correct in saying that the clamp is permanently attached to the hose. Mine works great and I'm very happy with it!

Buy Bon-Aire WH160C 12V Air Compressor Now

This Bonaire compressor came without a valve attachment clamp (the thing that connects the hose to your tire). I called Bonaire and they were very UN-helpful, saying I could NOT have purchased this from Amazon and that they only sell this to Target stores.

So, I ask -can I just purchase a replacement valve attachment? "NO," she says, "that part comes permanently attached to the hose." I could clearly see that this thing just clipped on, but this person just plain refused to check or help in any way. With a real bad attitude.

This seems like it might be a decent air compressor, at a reasonable price, but I think the Bonaire Customer Service is non-existent. And reflects on the product as well.

Great little air compressor works on big stuff and small things very handy.Great to have around house and on boat .

Want Bon-Aire WH160C 12V Air Compressor Discount?

Works like a charm. Accurate readout. I use it two or three times a week to get my bike tires up to 120 lb. Only negative is that it does not work on Schrader valves without an adapter. But not really a problem as they cost a dollar or two at a bike shop.

Light weight, super easy to use. Great for pumping up balls, bikes, etc... Without having to get out my big heavy compressor.

Leviton N1302-DS 30 Amp, 600 Volt, Toggle In Type 1 Enclosure Double-Pole AC Motor Starter, Suitable

Leviton N1302-DS 30 Amp, 600 Volt, Toggle In Type 1 Enclosure Double-Pole AC Motor Starter, Suitable as Motor Disconnect, Industrial Grade, Grounded, Gray
  • Thick Walled PBT Housing and Interlocking Face Encapsulates and Protects Internal Mechanism in Extreme and Harsh Industrial Environments
  • Insulating Barriers Provide Terminal Isolation Between Phases
  • Impact-Resistant PBT Face and Base
  • Large Toggle is Easy to Turn ON/OFF with Gloved Hand
  • 10 Year Limited Warranty

This is a no frills very well made switch suitable for motor control when you don't need an internal fuse to protect the motor from overload, or when there is overload protection on the motor itself. I used it on a 2 hp motor on my 8" jointer. Probably not as safe if there are inquisitive children around as the push button contactor with lockout type switches that ship with new jointers. The toggle and contacts are large and robust, so it should hold up well.

New Heavy Duty Pressure Switch for Air Compressor 25 amp 95-125 Four Port Connection w/ unloader & o

New Heavy Duty Pressure Switch for Air Compressor 25 amp 95-125 Four Port Connection w/ unloader & on/off lever
  • Brand New 25 Amp Heavy Duty pressure switch 95-125 - 4 port - unloader & on/off lever
  • FREE SHIPPING
  • 25 Amps at 110, 230 or 460 volt - single or three phase

As I live in a rural area bugs got in the OEM Switch and locked it on. As such my compressor was running an awfully long time. I manually shut it off before any damage was done.

This pressure switch appears to be pretty well sealed so hopefully it wont get buggy and crap out.

Switch itself works fine. No complaints.
