4.0 out of 5 stars summer fun machine, April 10, 2008

By	E. K. Arnold "amazon hunter" (yay area, usa) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

with this boombox-style unit, you could go to the beach or the woods, listen to your playlists on an mp3, plug in a george foreman grill and cook up some burgers or brats while you recharge your cel phone -- all at the same time. that's kinda cool. this is a tricked-out unit. it's not the loudest boombox you'll ever hear, but it does pump out decent sound when fully charged.

pros:
-lots of functions: mp3 cradle, usb port, flashlights, ac outlets, am/fm radio
-portable size with comfortable padded carrying handle
-uses rechargeable internal batteries; cord stores in rear
-ac power station features green/red status lcds
-rubberized grip handle
-nice price
-wont eat tapes or scratch cds
-accurate digital tuner

cons:
-some quirks: usb can cause feedback if switched on when radio or mp3 are also on. it's a good idea to test functions and cross-compatibility before using it the first time.
-100w refers to AC power, not internal amp for speakers
-only line in outlet is mp3 headphone jack
jack of all trades/master of none.

overall, good deal for the price i paid, which was a lot under msrp. not sure if it'd be worth original price. but a good item to have if you like the outdoors.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for anywhere!, February 25, 2008

By	A. Brown "Electronic Fanatic" (California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is an absolutely awesome product! I use it for powering my laptop when the battery dead and this works perfect, not to mention the fact that I can listen to my iPod without headphones, both at the same! I use this on campus, at the park or in the car. Never had any problems with it so far, charges up rather quickly, and the lights are great for in the back of the car without bothering the driver!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Everything seems to work well, March 6, 2008

By	M. Delury "M. D. skeptic" (Indianapolis, IN United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

All of the functions work well, the radio comes in, lights turn on etc. I think I was expecting that it would be able to charge from a 12v source but it doesn't. And it doesn't make sense to buy an inverter for an inverter.
