5.0 out of 5 stars Nanuk Case, July 9, 2010
I often take my camera out on my boat during the summer months and needed a case that could withstand the water and moisture on a daily bases. While at my local Camera store I ran across the Nanuk cases. You might wonder why I did not go with Pelican, the answer was simple, I broke my nail trying to latch the case. Really! The case has worked out perfect and the latches are a dream.

5.0 out of 5 stars I recently purchased a Nanuk 925 case with foam and I could not be more pleased, May 10, 2010
By 
Pat Evans (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
I recently purchased a Nanuk 925 case with foam and I could not be more pleased. Being that I have been a die hard customer of Pelican for many many years I was very skeptical of what I might be getting myself into. However, after looking at the specs of these cases and style I thought I would give it a try. Well, let me say these cases blow away Pelican. First off the latches are incredibly easy to use and I can open them with one hand. The handle also folds down which I never really thought about until I did it and I was able to fit the case in a storage compartment in my closet. Also the case is simply much better looking. I have invested a lot of energy into making a decent presentation when I show up for a job and these cases just look better and I can stack them! I opted for the case with foam that is basically the same as all the other cases I have ever gotten with foam inserts.
Consider me converted.

4.0 out of 5 stars How do you rate a device that does one job, and does it fine?, June 8, 2009

BD King (Phoenix Arizona) - See all my reviews

This review is from: GPS Receiver for Orion GoTo Telescope Mounts (Electronics)
I use the GPS receiver for Orion Mounts on my Orion Atlas CQ-G mount. Most of the time the mount recognizes it immediately and begins the setup routine with the exact date, time and location imbedded in the system. When it works this way, it is pretty much transparent.

However, from time to time, and I can't discern a reason, the mount does not recognize the GPS Receiver, and I have to unplug it and replug it, then restart the system. This is not a major issue, but I am concerned that it may not be reliable at a time when I need it the most.

I hav not used it hooked into my computer, so I cannot comment on how well that works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every $$$, Easy and Painless, February 23, 2010
This review is from: Earthwise PS40008 8-Inch 6 amp Electric Telescopic Pole Saw with 3-Position Head and 10-Foot Reach (Lawn & Patio)
Customer Video Review Length:: 6:36 Mins

Easy and Painless is how I want to describe this little workhorse. For such a tiny electric pole saw, it delivered pretty good. Look at the video to get an idea. And for a $70 electric pole saw, you'd think that it wouldn't have enough power, but you'd be surprised. I used this during the "Winter Wallop" in Oklahoma a few weeks ago. I was steadily cutting away and I had to stop only because I had to answer the telephone. No stalling and I switched easily from normal extension to it's maximum extension as you can see on the video. My little Chewing Train was chugging along. It ain't no Black and Decker or Poulan or McCoullah, or DeWalt or any other brand I"ve ever heard of, but it worked splendidly with absolutely no problem.

Summary of this unknown Electric Pole Saw:

Price: Excellent
Handling: Great
Reach: Excellent--You can extend it by simply using a ladder, but be careful of weight distribution... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Tree Saw, May 19, 2010

This review is from: Earthwise PS40008 8-Inch 6 amp Electric Telescopic Pole Saw with 3-Position Head and 10-Foot Reach (Lawn & Patio)
This saw has worked out great for my needs. Easy to assemble, just add chain saw oil (doesn't come with it), plug in your outdoor extension cord and go to work. I used it to trim my mesquite tree with some branches over 5 inches in diameter. Good reach ability when fully extended and not to hard to handle even though the balance is not perfect. I'm totally satisfied with the saw.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Cheap Saw, July 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Earthwise PS40008 8-Inch 6 amp Electric Telescopic Pole Saw with 3-Position Head and 10-Foot Reach (Lawn & Patio)
I've been bitten many time by cheap tools, but took a chance on this one because of the reviews. Glad I did.

Saw arrived today. Per reviews, instructions are not very good, but assembly was quick and simple. Just study the tiny diagrams and make sure you understand them before starting in. (I bet that the reviewer who said the saw did not cut well installed the chain backwards.)

After assembly, tried saw on some low limbs in a cluster of low decorative trees. It would have been nearly impossible to reach them with a regular saw. The pole saw made it easy. I could reach in from the side and move forward as I cut/removed each target limb. It is a small saw, but handled the small to medium limbs well. Not as fast as a bigger saw, but it's a small electric inexpensive tool. The automatic oiler seemed to work just fine.

I did not cut anything high, but did lift it up. Yes, it takes a lot of strength. Any pole saw does. In the fall, I will use it for... Read more
