Fire Sense 60445 Propane Olympia Patio Torch Review

Fire Sense 60445 Propane Olympia Patio Torch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just got my Olympia torch, but already I can see I'll save money using a propane tank that lasts 8 hours and only costs under 3 bucks, compared to messy, smelly lantern fuel. This torch sets up in a breeze, and stays lit in a breeze. The foot bar for planting the post in the ground makes installing it in the ground easy, but it's a bit frustrating to try and get the torch post exactly straight up. But, same was true with my old tiki torches. Well worth the investment, though it's hard to have just one. I'm ordering a couple more. Let the games begin.

Dramatic lighting from this fiery torch illuminates the walkway or patio in contemporary style. Fire Sense's Olympia torch is constructed of polished aluminum and brass and features a chic design that spices up any outdoor venue. Operating for about eight hours, the torch uses a standard welders' torch gas canister available at any home improvement store. Lightweight and portable, the unit breaks down for easy storage.

I am not a professional welder. Don't need to look like one. But I do need to keep the sparks off my head when working on floor pans. This is light/cool, fits great under the mask, is exactly what I needed.

Pencil Torch Review

Pencil Torch

Like another review, this torch only worked well initially before beginning to leak butane. This resulted in a weak, unstable flame. As a result, I increased the gas output and found out that the 'power gauge' was labeled incorrectly; Upon turning it up, I heard a distinct click - the torch no longer held butane. As soon as I tried to refill it, all the gas would just exit, rendering it completely useless.

I'm very satisfied in every way with this purchase. The package arrived on time in good condition. I had looked at this item on other web sites, and purchasing it on Amazon.com saved me a considerable amount on the purchase price; the free shipping was really an added plus. No problems at all with any of the clamps. Again, I'm very satisfied with this purchase, and have no regrets at all. I highly recommend it.

Blue Max GEN1250 1,250 Watt 2 HP 2-Cycle Gas-Powered Generator Review

Blue Max GEN1250 1,250 Watt 2 HP 2-Cycle Gas-Powered Generator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've only taken this thing tent camping once (in Oct 2007), but it did work to my expectations. Make no mistake, it is NOTHING FANCY. But considering you could buy about SEVEN of these puppies for the same price as ONE Honda EU1000i, I thought I would give it a shot. So far, I'm pleased.
My least favorite thing about it is that you've got to pre-mix the oil into the gasoline, like you do with some lawnmowers. The special "two-stroke" oil comes in a little bottle, and you pour a small amount (read directions) into the gasoline canister before filling the generator's tank with the mixture. The oil itself is not expensive, but they don't sell it just anywhere; you gotta go to a decent hardware store (i.e. I couldn't find it at Target, but I did find it at Lowe's). So far, this is the only real drawback I experienced; and frankly, it's not that bad.
The unit weighs about 40 lbs. That puts it in the lightest class of generator that I could find. There may be a couple out there that are slightly lighter - but not by more than a few pounds.
Starting up the unit requires about five steps done in order. For some people, 5 steps is about 3 or 4 steps too many, so if you're not mechanically inclined, I'd keep the instructions handy (page 9) until its operation becomes second nature to you. Again, it's really not that bad.
We ran it for about 1.5 tanks of gas, occasionally stopping and restarting when we left the camp site for a bit. Usually, it started on about the 3rd pull. One time it got fussy and I had to pull it about 7-8 times, but that was just one of the starts.
As for the noise, it's not too bad either. It's just slightly louder than the EU1000i, and you could buy a truckload of earplugs with the $650 you'll save. Of course, instead of earplugs, I just bought one of those orange utility extension cords and placed the generator off to the side of my camp site (about 20 feet away). The noise was barely noticable, and certainly didn't hinder a normal conversation.
In short, this is a decent product for the amazingly cheap price tag, and it opened up so many new options for our campsite. If it craps out on me, I'll be sure to update my review to let y'all know!
UPDATE #1 (May 2008): Sad to report that this item was stolen from my toolshed. While I was pretty ticked off about it, I've got to laugh just a little. If I had I bought the much more expensive model (which I almost did), I'd be in tears right now. As it is, I just decided to buy another one of these. That, and to put a better lock on my shed.
UPDATE #2: Received my new "replacement" generator, and... it was defective. A sizable dent in the casing that houses the spindle, which prevents the spindle from moving (thereby preventing the unit from staeting). I guess this is the risk of buying the less expensive model. My recommendation to you: make a full visual inspection of your new unit BEFORE you fill 'er up with gas. You cannot ship a generator that has already been fueled - even if you empty the tank.
UPDATE #3 (June 2008): Why did Amazon raise the price of this item?? When I bought it, it was about $115, and it looks like they pushed it up to $145 - no small increase. My original review was titled "Decent product for the price," but now that I've experienced a did, AND they price went up, I've changed the title to what you now see above. I should also note that there are 2 other generators for sale on Amazon in the same weight class which used to be slightly more expensive than this one, but which are now slightly cheaper. I don't remember the brand, but they look almost like this one, except one is green and the other is yellow. Do a search for "camping generators" and all three come up.

Reliance Controls AP31RV 30 Amp L5-30 to RV Generator Power Adapter Plug Review

Reliance Controls AP31RV 30 Amp L5-30 to RV Generator Power Adapter Plug
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's an adapter plug - It converts your 30Amp Generator outlet to a 30Amp RV Receptacle. It does everything it's supposed to do. I do offer caution though - make sure that you know the Amps & Volts of your generator and RV. My 30Amp Outlet on my generator is 230 Volts and my RV is 115 Volts. This is not a working combination! This is of no fault of the adapter - it does what it's suppose to do! You need to do your part and verify voltage output provided by the generator and that required by the RV. You can modify the output of the generator, but unless you have a real good understanding of AC electricity, have it done! Just remove one leg (the proper leg) of the power feed to the generator plug.

I Bought this machine to use on my ranch. Just cut a 3/8" hardened steel shredder blade. Didn't think I could do it in a single pass, but it cut it like butter. Had to pierce it to cut bolt holes & had no problems. The dual voltage plug is the main reason I bought this model, & I couldn't be more pleased. I use a Harbor Freight inline disposable drier cartridge. For about $6 & lasts at least an hour of cutting. I also use 1/4" MDF for making templates. This is a "Cool Tool".

The generator arrived in about a week and performed as specified. I bought a lawnmower powered by Briggs and Stratton in 1987. It continues to start with one pull and that was the deciding factor when chosing a generator. I live rural, in the mountains of Western North Carolina where trees fall with every storm. The generator is supplying power to the house and a well pump that is 600 feet deep and 300 distance from the house.
