Solar Powered Security Floodlights - Motion Activated Lights- Wireless Outdoor Light- 80 Lumen Ultra Bright LEDs Review!

I have been a gatherer of anything solar for a few years now just for the fact that I like the peace of mind to be able to have light or power or anything else that is powered by the sun.  The light was a little smaller than I had thought it was going to be but puts out a fair amount of light for its size.  The light is made of a very light weight plastic but doesn't feel cheap at all.  I like the feature of the motion sensing that way you do not have to worry about it being on full bright at all times. It is also a nice feature that it is on a very dim setting all the time to make it as a sort of night light, would be great for a deck or on posts for a walkway. 

 I haven't decided if I am going to actually mount this or leave it charged in the house and use it as an indoor nightlight and just take it out to charge it when needed.  The feature to be able to shut it completely off with the supplied tool or a paperclip is nice, that way if you wanted to store it through winter or something you could do that with out having to worry if you where killing the battery.

Eternity Buttonless Flameless Lighter, USB Rechargeable Electric Battery Powered Review

I have been wanting to try out one of these lighters for a long time now.  I think it is a great idea that you can have a rechargeable lighter with you and always have a way to make fire.  With all of the Solar options for charging packs these days you can have limitless charges.  I was very pleased with the packaging on this item.  For those that have read some of my past posts you will know that I love it when companies put some effort into the packaging of their product.  It shows that they care about their product and actually want to show it off and not just throw it into some cheesy cardboard box.

The lighter itself is well made and is very well built and you can tell by holding it that it is a nice sold piece of equipment.  it has a nice smooth finish and the lid is easy to flip open and closed.  It even comes with a nice little felt bag for a carrying case.  

I decided to test this on some paper since I am not a smoker.  when you open the lid of the lighter a little green light comes on letting you know that you are good  to go.  once you stick something in between the points it emits a noise and starts to burn what ever is between the points.  If you have sensitive ears then it can be a little harsh.  It was able to start the paper on fire with in a few seconds.

I was pleased at how fast it worked and just the ingenuity of it all.

If interested you can buy it here and I might receive a few pennies.

Car Safety Hammer - All In One Emergency Tool / Seatbelt Cutter / Window Breaker / Built In Flashlight / Whistle / Magnet / Red Hazard Light Review

Over all I think this item or one similar should be in everyone's vehicle.  There are a lot of scary things in this world and one of them is the thought of being trapped in a car as it burns or sinks to the bottom of a river with no way to get out.  Granted these types of items are also good for other non life threatening emergence's as well.  The flash light and emergency flashing lights are also nice to have if you are broken down and need light to see what you are working on or to provide visibility to oncoming traffic to keep you safe while you are working.

The Item itself is well made and fits nicely into the palm of your hand.  It is well made and feels very durable.  I am looking at getting one of these for each of my vehicles.  I received this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review.  

FreeLight Solar Powered Hanging Camping Light / Flash Light Review

I love anything solar and especially if it comes with its own battery backup to store the power it creates.  I am always looking for things that I can use to help in any event that might happen that would cause my family to loose power.  This is a great little unit because you can charge it up during the daytime and then use it at night.  Depending on the charge you can get 4-5 hours of straight usage out of it.

It is nice because it is not to bright that it will blind you but just enough light to let you see the things you need to see.  I love the fact that you can charge the battery pack without the light being attached, that way you don't have to worry about breaking the bulb or anything like that. The bulb comes with a loop you can use to hang it up or put around your wrist and use it like a lantern or flashlight.  I received this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

Premium Outdoor Hammock for Hiking, Camping, Backpacking Review

I loved Hammocks as a kid and the feeling of weightlessness they provide. It has been a long time since I have been in a Hammock so I couldn't recall what the material or anything else about the olden days Hammocks. So when I was asked to review this one I jumped at the chance, well I had to wait in line after my youngest daughter at least.

 The package that it comes in is a tiny bag that is smaller than a volleyball and comes with a second package that has the tree straps in them as well. The material is really light weight and is very breathable to help with sweat if you are in a hot area. The best t hing about this is that the stuff bag that you put the Hammock in after you are done...It is actually attached to the Hammock itself. Its like mind blowing that sleeping bag companies haven't thought of this before.

 The hammock is well made and seems very durable. My daughter was so excited she wanted me to hook it up in her room so she could nap in it. I used one of the tree straps to connect one side to my daughters top bunk bed and the other to a sturdy closet rod in her closet. It states that it will hold 400 lbs and it held my 250 lb (ish) frame just fine as well. I would defiantly recommend this Hammock for anyone that is camping, hiking or just plan napping in their room. I revived this item at a discount in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

Garden Décor Solar Powered Lights- Set of 10 Review

These are great item to add light walk way or Garden Way. I was a little disappointed that they were plastic and not glass containers. The tops of solar panels covered in stuff that I had to clean off, I would think that all of they would clean all of the manufacturing gunk off of the tops before shipping them out.  I let them charge for a few days before I started to use them. I have also noticed when I get up in the morning the lights are almost dead. They don't seem to hold a charge very long, so you have to make sure the get plenty of sun during the day time. I got this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

 Sorry the night pictures didn't turn out very well and are a little out of focus.

Solar Motion Sensor Light, Fugetek FT-38L Super Bright 38 LED Review

The pictures do not do this light justice to how big it actually is, it is about the size as a standard tissue box. I took it out of the box and let it charge up for most of the day to get a nice full charge out of it and then I set to play with it for the rest of the night. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to get the light to turn on but once I figured it out I was blinded by the light for a few minutes. I wouldn't recommend looking directly into this mini sun when you turn it on and are playing with it.

 I like anything that is wireless and I don't have to pay someone to install. Installation on this is easy, you just screw in 2 screws and then mount the light on the screws and then you are good to go. It is rated to charge in any types of weather and says that it needs to be charge monthly so I would make sure you install it where it will be able to get some sunlight so you don't have to take it down and stick it in the sun. I received this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

LED Flashlight,Xnucol Ultra Bright Multifunction Focus Adjustable Flashlight Review

I love flash lights and think you can never have to many, but there is some flash lights that are great and then there are some that are just mediocre. This on is up towards the great scale of flash lights because of its feature to zoom the light in and out. I like how you can have a nice tight beam or a broad beam that is like a giant spot light. You just push or pull the handle to get it to zoom in or out. It is well made and seems very durable and not a cheap light. 

This light will be handy to keep on you in case you need to shed light on something and because it has a window breaking feature that can help you in emergencies.  I received this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review. 

Garden Hose Nozzle, Hand Spray Nozzle RAAYA Review

This is the second Raaya water nozzle that I have tested and let me tell you they don't disappoint. The first one I got was so well made I decided to give this one a try also. Like the other one this one is well made and very durable. Has 9 different spray patterns and can be pointed forward, straight or backwards to get into any hard spots or any situation that might arise. I like the different patterns so you can choose what one you are in need of most. I find I use the shower more than anything to water my flowers and bushes in my front yard. I would recommend this for anyone, Raaya knows how to make good quality items.

Night Provision™ TX11 Tactical Flashlight Torch Cree XPL-HD 1000 Lumen LED Review

I can always tell when a product is going to meet my expectations by the packaging and the way it is presented when opened.  If a company takes pride in the way their product looks in the packaging, if it arrives safely and the quality of the packaging.  This light hit high marks on all three of these items.  The box is nice and sturdy and comes with a foam padding that is sectioned off for each item that comes with the flash light.

This light is very well made and you can tell the first time you pick it up that it is not some cheap knock off of a tactical flashlight, this is the real deal.  I like how it came with a holster and extra seal for the end of it as well.  The only downside is that the batteries are not included but that is not a giant deal for the quality of this light.  I would recommend getting recharge able batteries for this that way you don't have to buy them all the time.  I got this flash light for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

OPTREK 7 ¾" Stainless Steel Lock back Knife w/Nylon Sheath Review

Has potential to be a great knife blade, but the handle seems plastic and flimsy. The build of this knife feels nice and sturdy despite the plastic feel of the handle. It is sharp but nor razor sharp like I like my knifes but most knifes you buy have to be sharpened when you first get them. It seems as though the knife has an edge on one side of the blade which seems odd to me but when I sharpen it I will put an edge on the other side of it. 

Over all It makes for a good pocket knife to carry around when you need one and I would recommend it to people just be aware of the handle having a little plastic to it, that is why I took 1 star off.  I have purchased other knifes in this price range because I cant see spending over $30 for a good knife and this is one of the better ones in the $10 price range.  I received this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review. 

SURVIVOR X Emergency Shelter Tube Tent Review

This is a must have for any bugout bag or 72 hour kit.  It is light weight and seems like it is well made and very durable.  It will not replace a normal tent but if you are in a pinch and need something for shelter this does the job and does it well.  It comes with everything you need in order to get it set up, I like the para cord that came with it.  I got this item for free in exchange for my honest opinion and review.
