For $20 this is a damn fine tool if you ask me. Certainly beats dragging power cables behind you!@ ThinkGeek has it, or you can get it direct. (ThinkGeek) is not shipping till monday because they're moving warehouses, so if you order now you get -5$ on shipping.

Yea but for 20 bucks you cant really loose. Plus the portability of it. Worth 20 bucks of my money

Probably, however both reviews have very good feedback + i just love the thought of portability. Every time I have to run extension cords and bring out my soldering iron to connect 2 wires in my car -> big ugh! Whereas this would solve most problems on the spot. For $20 you cant really go wrong.

A buddy of mine at work and I saw this in the paper a while ago. So he bought one. He says it's not that great. He got his off of ebay. He said the tips on it were very fragile.
