Patington's new West Coast Magnet Mirror eliminates the need to have a second person assist when hitching up your trailer, boat or other equipment pulled by a tongue. The West Coast Magnet Mirror features a 6" x 16" detachable, adjustable mirror that fits into a telescoping, adjustable base unit that ranges from 24" to 48". Made of lightweight, durable aluminum, the strong magnetic base eliminates time consuming set up. Set the proper angle the first time you use it and you won't have to reset it again. Just set it on the spot you've marked on the tongue. Suggested retail for the West Coast Magnet Mirror is $54.95. For more information, contact: Patington, Inc., 2658 Eagle Ave. NW, Oxford, IA 52322.

RV Power Products has introduced Solar Boost2000, a 20 amp fully  automatic, current boos-ting photovoltaic charge controller. According to the manufacturer it is the only PV controller on the market that can actually increase charge current to the battery. Through the use of patent pending technology, Solar Boost 2000 can increase charge current up to 30% or more. Current boost charges the battery more rapidly, and can make possible the need for fewer PV panels. It includes a digital meter to show battery voltage, PV array current and output charge current. You can actually see current boost working by noting the difference between PV array current and output charge current. Adjustable charge voltage allows the unit to support various battery types. Optional temperature compensation is available to further improve charge performance and battery life. Power Boost 2000 will operate "stand alone" or as a fully integrated "power unit" slave to the firm's Battery Manager™ 6210. For more info, contact: RV Power Products, 1058 Monterey Vista Way, Encinitas, CA 92024. Phone 800-493-RVPP.
