Batteries Plus

VERY good store. I had bought a 10.8v battery from airsoftgi, That came VERY defective.
I took it to batteries plus, they had the same rating cells, installed the new cells in the defective battery and did the work for free, the cells costed 4 bucks each.

I recomend going to this store if your batteries brake or have any questions about batteries. This store also custom creates batteries. you can ask for any volt to any mah and have it custom made for minimal price.

The batteries plus down the way from my house basically told me that they neither made "airsoft" batteries, or would fix my downed 9.6 mini. I had heard wonderful things about batteries plus, and this really took the wind out of my sails. While I have no doubt that this could be an incident related entirely to my personal experiances, and my store only, I would tell anyone who wishes to go the BP route, to at least take it with a grain of salt.
They still make fabulous custom batteries for my camcorder however.  :)

I live down here in Tucson, It might be your store has a bias against NiMh/NiCad batteries. Have you tried any other battery plus's in pheonix?

The store that I go to down here is very professional. I just gave them my 10.8v Nunchuck type battery to be Boosted up to 12v and be reshaped to my cranestock. All for only 10 dollars. Idk about the one you went to, But the employes did tell me that they do NOT do anything with LiPo. i support them as you can tell :)

Red Dog Radios

I was looking for solutions to strengthen the antenna connection on my Icom. The president, Tom Ohlsson, was very professional in providing answers to my questions in a quick manner. I sent my Icom radio in for a simple antenna connector repair. Instead of just making the repair, Tom fully put the radio through its paces testing to make sure everything met specs. I did not realize that my radio was in such disrepair, Tom definitely went way above and beyond!
Quote from: "Tom"
Ryan, I repaired your broken antenna connector, but, your speaker was shot to hell, so I replaced it as well.  Bench tuned your radio, it was way off channel.  Should sound sweet and clear now.  I also tossed in a used, but clean, antenna, just in case the old one was less than perfect.  Take care and have a good weekend.

Tom performed all the additional work, which was easily over $60 in parts, and labor and he only charged me for the original repair work!  He definitely did not have to provide the extra parts and perform the extra work at no additional cost. It is truly appreciated and I cannot say enough about Tom and the exceptional service I received from Red Dog Radios!

Ive got to second Red Dog Radios, Tom called me up and helped me get everything the way I wanted it when I got my Icom. Hell he even knew I wanted it programmed to AA before I said anything about it.

The Kubasch Law Firm

I have worked at many law firms over the years including some of the largest international firms (MoFo, Foley & Lardner, etc) and my firm is the most ethical, most people friendly and accessible group of people I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

I never loose sleep over whether something we did was wrong and every day I get to help people solve their problems.  

I actually look forward to coming in to my office every day.

You won't find Armani suits and BMW's anywhere here, just casual professionals with nothing to prove.

No advertising, not even a yellow pages listing.  Our word means something in this town.

Here are some site's where I have ordered some of my apparel.

These first 2 site I list actually make their gear to government specs. Not saying any of the ones you list don't. I'm just saying I'm not sure what all site's do.

http://www.opsgear.com/

http://rangerjoes.com/

This next site I'm not too sure about but they have some pretty awesome deals.

http://www.bdu.com/

These 3 site's I have ordered things from and have had no issues of any sort. Speaking of which I will be ordering more multicam this weekend from BDU.com.

Hope these help.

Don't forget, I know it's been mentioned, But Diamondback tactical is right in our back yard. They have good nylon stuff and I have heard they now have a small showroom and will call. If you don't desire driving to N phx, shipping is here next day..


On  a side note..I am looking for a good 3day type pack, possibly something smaller that is comfortable but easy to don on and off. Something with a lumber belt would be optimal.

Do you have a link to Diamondback Tact or a phone # ?

Also, Allied Surplus has some pretty sweet stuff as well. You may be able to find your pack there. Here's a link:

LapoliceGear no longer has my vote for a good company. They no longer have a live inventory system and charged me for three pairs of hatch gloves when I ordered one, and are giving me a hassle to return the monies. I called up US Police Supply, confirmed they had them in hand in my size, they price matched LA Police gear and even offered to ship them express mail at no cost. a+ in my book.
