Garage Electrical Cord And Power Reel
Electrical cord and power reelTDI Products now offers the 15 Amp Commercial Power Reel with 100 feet of 12/3 electrical cord that retracts onto a reel with the push of a button, yet takes up less than one cubic foot of space in the garage or shop.
As is true of all Shoreline Reels, the cord “” specially designed not to stiffen in cold weather “” spools off freely and can be retracted by pushing a momentary switch that powers either a 12-volt-DC or 110-volt-AC motor. An integral mounting plate allows the unit to be attached to a workbench, or to a garage wall or ceiling stud. A turntable mount that allows the reel to rotate in different directions also is available. Because the total weight of the cord and reel is only 23 pounds, the unit can even be used as a portable reel and simply held during retrieval of the cord.
All Shoreline Reels are UL listed and covered by a one-year warranty. The 15 Amp Commercial Power Reel with electrical cord is available for $310.

Tire Pressure Sensor
Tire pressure sensorThe Intellivalve tire pressure monitoring system is available for vehicles with four, six, or 12 wheels. The system, which consists of wireless air valve transmitters in each wheel and a digital monitor that sits on the dashboard, can instantly inform the driver of the air pressure and temperature of each tire. As an added safety feature, should tire pressure become higher or lower than recommended, an audible alarm sounds. Besides contributing to catastrophic tire failure, improperly inflated tires can also decrease tire life and fuel economy.
The suggested retail price for Intellivalve systems begins at $299.

emperature Controls
Duo-Therm Comfort Control CenterThe Duo-Therm Comfort Control Center by Dometic Corporation allows RVers to set the personal comfort zone in their motorhome with the touch of a button. Unlike some units that require reprogramming when power is lost and restored, the Comfort Control Center automatically returns to the last mode of operation. When used with multiple appliances that heat or cool, the Comfort Control Center can set different temperatures in up to four different zones for optimal comfort. Pressing any button on the unit illuminates the LCD display and the button itself, assuring the user that the correct button has been selected. An optional feature links the Comfort Control Center with the unit’s automatic generator start (AGS). This feature alerts the AGS to start the generator to provide the necessary power for the air conditioner or heating system.

Low-Voltage Dimmer
Low-voltage dimmerInterCon Marketing Inc. has added 12-volt and 24-volt dimmers to its line of low-voltage lighting. A brief press on the “Up” key starts an automatic fade-up to 100 percent; a fade-down to no light is achieved by a similar press on the “Down” key. If either key is held for more than one second, the light level is adjusted for as long as the key is pushed. At levels below 15 percent, the dimmer cuts off.
Built-in short-circuit protection reduces output voltage if the load exceeds 100 watts. Under- and over-voltage protection automatically cuts off the power below 10 volts or above 16 volts for 12-volt usage. For 24-volt usage, cutoff occurs below 20 volts or above 32 volts. The suggested retail price of the new InterCon dimmer is $72.
