Makita cordless power tools. Or corded for that matter. But I have bought many of all brands for my company. Makita makes every other brand look like a piece of shite when it comes to cordless.

Felco shears, loppers, etc. if you do a lot of pruning, these are the best around.

Just fyi, they say they charge themselves and they do. But you are still going to have to replace the battery at some point. It's a rechargeable battery.


Like someone already pointed out, the eco drive doesn't use a battery. It's also supposed to hold a charge for 6 months in total darkness. I've had mine for 5 years and have never had to set it.

Question: What are the life spans of solar cells and rechargeable cell?Answer: According to the experimental data, both will last more than 10 years. It is also considered to lose up to around 20 % of their initial performance in 20 years. However, we think that it won't cause trouble for the use of the watch.

Any Martin guitar, just go off what you can afford. From the entry level to the top every Martin guitar is well made and sounds good.



Adding on to this tip, if you don't mind something not brand new, checkout guitarcenter.com's used guitar listings. I despise guitar center and would never go there for any other reason, but if you're picky about the style of guitar you want, but don't care about a scratch or two and don't mind setting up or adjusting the action to make it perfect, they will likely have something used in stock in good condition at a big discount of retail and they'll ship it to your local store for almost nothing. Plus, if you end up not liking the guitar, you're only out a bucks for them shipping it to your store instead of potentially having to pay to ship it all the way back to the seller if you buy it on ebay.

And another decent brand worth checking out is Eastman. If you're buying a high end guitar, then go with Martin (or Taylor or whatever), but if you're looking to spend $500 or less say, then consider Eastman since the craftsmanship will be comparable, but you'll likely be able to find an Eastman with a solid top, sides, and back whereas a Martin in that price range will probably be laminate (at least for the sides and back).

One thing that's surprised the hell out of me is a cheap pair of Skullcandy Uproar Wireless bluetooth headphones. They don't sound the best but they're good enough, and I have beat them to hell and back and they never miss a beat. Great battery life, too. They're my gym and yardwork headphones. People hear me pretty well on phone calls, too.

Honestly the best ice chest I've ever owned. Keeps ice longer than my Yeti, and it costs half as much. Customer service is out of this world.
