Αγορά τον Μάιο 2017 στα 36€. Στους 20 μήνες (μόνο οικιακή χρήση) και με την εγγύηση ακόμα σε ισχύ, παρουσίασε πρόβλημα στο πάτημα ορισμένων κουμπιών με αποτέλεσμα να μην είναι χρηστικό και ειδικά όταν το πρόβλημα επεκτάθηκε και στο πράσινο κουμπί αποδοχής κλήσης, δεν άνοιγε με τίποτα με αποτέλεσμα να χάνονται κλήσεις. Το πρόβλημα αυτό όπως διάβασα εδώ το αντιμετώπισαν και άλλοι χρήστες. Επικοινώνησα με την τοπική αντιπροσωπεία της panasonic όπου ζήτησαν να τους προσκομίσω τη συσκευή. Όταν την πήγα εκεί με ενημέρωσαν πως επικοινώνησαν με την Αθήνα και δεν έχουν το δικαίωμα να επέμβουν σε τηλεπικοινωνιακές συσκευές της panasonic και θα πρέπει να το στείλω στην Αθήνα. Μάλιστα!!!!! Αν βάλω τα έξοδα της ταχυμεταφοράς να πάει και να γυρίσει έπιασα ήδη τα 2/3 της τιμής αγοράς, οπότε πήγε στην άκρη, αγοράσθηκε άλλο τηλέφωνο της γερμανικής ανταγωνίστριας εταιρείας και φυσικά δεν θα θα ξαναμπεί panasonic στο σπίτι. Επίσης το προηγούμενο τηλέφωνο ήταν πάλι της panasonic και ξαφνικά σταμάτησε να κουδουνίζει και δεν δούλευε η ανοιχτή ακρόαση σε διάστημα περίπου 2-3 ετών. Άρα......

Gradually I have bought eight pieces for all white appliances and air conditioners. In one (of the washing machine) and after about 2 years of use, the protection indicator light went out at some point. They immediately sent me a new one, by courier and with no charge. After that, no other product enters the house except APC and gradually I replace all existing power strips only with APC.

The last one purchased in April 2019 suddenly stopped providing security. I was quite concerned. 2 errors out of 8 is a high percentage (that's why 4 stars) but it may have happened to me. Contacted the dealership again and again a free replacement at zero cost and in a very short time since it came from the Netherlands. Congratulations to the dealership for the support it provides and for not hesitating to incur multiple expenses beyond the value of its product to maintain its name and reliability.

So far everything works without any problems, so I rate it with 5 stars

Another 4 pieces were purchased to cover additional needs and everything works perfectly.
Throughout the time they have been working, there have been storms, power outages, etc., without any problems in the protected devices. I recommend it.

Everything works perfectly, I have not encountered any problems so far.

I don't see it lacking anywhere compared to much more expensive ones in its category. When I needed it (3 times with the same charge), it responded without any problem. It starts the car smoothly. During the first charge, I let it charge for about 24 hours. While it was in the charging process, the 4th LED was blinking (indicating 75% charge), but when it was disconnected from the charger, the indication was at 100%. It does its job very well. The quality/price ratio is very good. As for its longevity, time will tell and of course, I will comment again. For now, I am satisfied, especially with the price I bought it for.

I had charged it 1.5 - 2 months ago and it started with the first try (even 5 times) on a car with a 1800 engine. The charge indication was between 50-75% (3 out of 4 LEDs). I think I am being unfair with the 4 stars. I am waiting to see its longevity. It is worth its money.

I now give it 5 stars. It has been uncharged for 3 months and more in the trunk of the car, with a charge indication of 25-50% (2 out of 4 LEDs), and it started with the first try on my car and two other cars (Audi A4 & Skoda Octavia) on different days. I didn't expect it to perform, but it proved me wrong. Its flashlight works normally (steady lighting, slow and fast alarm), its plastic (and overall appearance) looks like new. In the 9 months I have had it, I charged it only twice (initial charge and one now). The second time, it stayed on charge for more than 24 hours until all 4 LEDs lit up. It is a reliable tool.

With a charge indication of 0-25% (1 out of 4 LEDs), it failed to start a car with a 1400 engine.
Do not keep it in the car in very high or low temperatures, it discharges and deteriorates. My opinion remains positive for its price. I recommend it.

Today marks 80 days without charging, without any use, and I decided to test it. The initial indication is 4 out of 4 LEDs (75-100%). When I plugged it into the socket, it showed 3 out of 4 LEDs (50-75%). After 90 minutes of charging, it is back to 100%. My experiment showed that even with 2 LEDs lit (25-50%), it starts high-displacement gasoline cars without any problem. During the charging process, it stays as long as necessary until all 4 LEDs light up, but during the first charge, it stayed for almost 24 hours instead of 4-5 hours. It should not be exposed for a long time to extreme weather conditions such as very cold or very hot temperatures.

Today marks 220 days (7 months+) without charging and without any use. The indication is 1 out of 4 LEDs (0-25%). I estimate it was at 25% because almost immediately after plugging it in, the 2nd LED started blinking (indicating 25-50% charge). It did not present any problems, and the whole package looks like new. Excellent for its price.

It was fully charged at the end of September, and one month later, to my surprise, it was completely discharged. Maybe I forgot to turn off the flashlight. It was fully charged again at the end of October, and 2.5 months later, it was at 25% (a point where starting the vehicle is difficult to impossible). It is possible that the very low temperatures played a role in its relatively fast discharge, but now it needs more frequent monitoring.
Re-commented on 31/7/2019.
I have been monitoring it and found that it now discharges on average every two months (one charge lasted 70 days, another 40 days). I hope it stays at this level because if it needs to be charged every month or more frequently, I think it loses its usefulness.
Final Review
Finally, it started requiring a charge every 25 days or so, which makes it inconvenient since it is not readily available. During one of the more frequent charges, I noticed that it started heating up more than usual, so I suspected it was dying and in the end, smoke started coming out. Luckily, I was nearby and noticed it immediately, so I unplugged it and eventually threw it away.
For safety reasons, I would recommend being present during the charging of any similar device.
In the end, it lasted about 6 years, but it was fully functional for 4-4.5 years, so both the lifespan and the way it "died" are modified in the rating. The final conclusions are up to you.
Thank you for appreciating the comment, which was completely true and without any ulterior motives.

Excellent machine with a lot of power. It completes every cleaning task from all kinds of vegetation. Perhaps its only disadvantage is its weight, which tires you out faster than a smaller one (the corresponding machines have the same or even greater weight), but it compensates you with the less work time required. Grass is not a problem and is cut with very little effort. It was purchased to clean a 3.5-acre estate from vegetation (various plants, mainly with woody trunk and in a difficult environment with several stones, ropes, and wires hidden in the vegetation). It required less than half the work time and the result was excellent. Especially with the saw blade, even the woody vegetation did not resist. I trusted the company since I already own the much smaller 323 for 11 years, which still works and is one of the most honest tools. It is recommended because besides being a good machine, you also have very good support for consumables and technical support when you need it.

I recommented on 26-4-2024.
It is already 8.5 years old and with amateur use it never went to a repairman. Its maintenance (cleaning and lubrication) is done by me. No part has been replaced and it did not ask for anything (not even the spark plug was changed). Its only expenses are fuel and trimmer line. It starts easily, usually with 1-2 attempts. I tried it with a 225 wood cutting disc (from Lidl) to cut small trees and very thick bushes, it cut them like a chainsaw !!!!

Excellent machine and of course I highly recommend it.
