I had decided of late to try and learn more about repairs on my Subaru Forester. I have found the Subaru dealers to be extremely overpriced when it comes to repairs. My Forester had some trouble starting after sitting for a period overnight. I diagnosed it as needing a new air charge sensor. I priced it at the local Autozone because I knew the dealer would charge over 300.00 for the part. Autoz...

The Xbox 360 play and charge kit is the best this allows to continue playing your game as the controller is charging. This kit allows your controller to be charged for up to 30 hours of playing time. That would take like 4 batteries which to buy that pack of batteries cost some money. Also this kit comes in two colors white and black so that it can match your xboxWithout the play and charge kit...

I recently went to Walmart and purchased a Nyko Charging Station for my Wii for $30.00. I was thinking that this would save me money in the long run because I wouldn't have to buy batteries to keep plugging into my Wiimote. Boy, was I wrong. When I arrived home and hooked up the Nyko Charging Station, I followed the instructions and set everything up. I put my two wiimotes on the charger an...

The Nyko Wii Charge Station is a rechargeable-battery solution for Wii Remotes.  It includes battery packs, covers, and the charger for two Remotes.This charging kit is an absolute godsend.  My Wii Remotes tend to have a much shorter battery life than other wireless controllers, probably thanks to the fact that Bluetooth is a big battery drain.  With this kit, I can simply leave ...

Mario Strikers Charged is a soccer-based game involving the numerous Nintendo characters. Whenever I bought Mario Strikers Charged, I was expecting that it would be like a normal soccer game. Boy, was I wrong. Mario Strikers Charged was so intense. The game was very exciting playing against the computer. It was also very challenging, considering there were different hardness levels for the comp...

I went and had a facial done and they used the Aveda line of products. I was impressed with my facial so I thought I would try some of their products. The girl recommend the tourmaline exfolicating cleanser. Did it work, I am not jumping up and down about this product. I don't think it was worth $28.00. Does it clean my face, yes but so did a lot of other products I used that cost a lot les...

I purchased the Quick Charge Kit on sale from Dell.com for $10, up until then i had always used the play and charge cable, and found it worked quite well. But it was such a great deal i couldn't pass up the Quick Charge Kit. I figured it would be good to have so my 360 would not have to remain on so much to charge my controller battery (the 360 will remain on in charging mode with the play ...

Now a day, everything we own seems to be ran by battery. I have tried several different brands and styles and Duracell is one of the latest for me to try.We got this at Wal-Mart for $14.23 tax and all, that is a package of 4. The one thing I really liked about these is that they were pre-charged so you can take them straight from the pack and use them. You can use most chargers for these batter...

I can blow through a pair of brand new AA batteries in my Xbox 360 controller in a weekend. After blowing through my entire package of 8 AA batteries in less than a month of gameplay, I decided that I had better get something that was rechargeable or start investing in Energizer bunny stock.I prefer the adapter cords that let me play right out of the electrical outlet as well as let me switch t...

So you're up to your tenth pack of batteries and you've only had your Wii a couple of weeks?  Days?  Then this is the product for you.  The Nyko wiimote charging station is the best quality charger for the price in my opionion.  I've owned mine for well over a year now.  We are just beginning to notice that the batteries are not holding their charge as well ...

the iMode iPod docking station was very appealing when i first saw it on the shelf at the store... it had a nice design, came with a built in alarm clock, and of course, charged your iPod. it was also only $30, and i was short on cash for another iHome(i had to trade mine to get out of debt), so i bought it hoping it was as good as it seemed at the store. when i got home i unpackaged it and plu...

Last summer, my brother visited from Washington D.C.  He's in his 40s and never been married.  He has a great job so he endulges himself regularly.  He's a bit of a Metrosexual.  During his visit, he accidently left a bottle of body wash.  I called him to tell him and ask if we should send it back but he said, "No."  He mentioned that it was expen...

One thing you will notice about your Wii when you first get it is the large amount of batteries you will burn through on the controllers. This is why I went out and purchased my Gigaware Wii Recharge station. This station will charge 2 controllers at a time (Gigaware makes a 4 station charger as well). Included is the station, 2 rechargable batteries, and a USB cable. The usb cable plugs in to ...

 Swivel phones are a strange breed. They open up like flip phones and look like candybar phones when closed, yet are different enough to have their own little niche. The Sony Ericsson S710a (an 850mhz compliant quadband GSM phone specifically for the Americas) is one such phone that turns heads whenever I use it. The black scheme of the S710a is a nice finish, with silver D-pad and ac...

Since I often play my xbox 360, and I have children, corded game controllers are not really an option. The xbox 360 remotes will run through your batteries faster then you can place them in there. The xbox 360 itself will charge your remotes with the plug in play adapter, but I don't like leaving my xbox 360 on when I am not playing it. This product was a great addition to have. You can cha...

My family are avid Monopoly fans. At Christmas when we all get together we actually have Monopoly tounaments with a prized going to the winner. While I was shopping in Toys R US I saw the Monopoly Here & Now Electronic Banking edition on sale. It was the best of both worlds - Monopoly (that I LOVE to play) and on SALE (I NEVER pass up a good sale)! This Electronic Banking edition uses plast...

My big 60th birthday was around the corner and we decided to make a travel weekend. I thought it might be fun to rent a smaller car so we could do as much travel, have road service and look spiffier. My car is a gas guzzler and Mike drives a box truck that gets about 5 miles per gallon, so, by renting a car for $16 plus tax we ended up saving money for our little journey. We only scheduled one ...

  Run for your life! AT&T's Customer Service has been taken-over by Zombies!   I was an AT&T customer for 30+ years but not anymore.  I am convinced that AT&T is SCAMMING their clients for millions of dollars, just by forcing them to use 'Operator Assisted' calls caused by their own faulty phone service lines. When I recently called AT&T customer ...

  When some of our office employees switched to using a wireless mouse there was a sudden increase in battery use.  Since we are all trying to cut costs any way we possibly can we purchased the Energizer Compact Charger for AA and AAA Energizer NiHM batteries.This has greatly decreased our use of batteries, our cost, plus the disposal of regular batteries.  You will find thi...
