The Good:
Best wireless signal strength of any FM transmitter I have used!
Clean design, easy to use.
The Bad:
I can't find any Fast Forward / Rewind. If you like to listen to audio books or podcasts, it starts over at the beginning of the file every time it gets turned off and on. It remembers the file you are on but not the position in the file. Workaround - I use the program mp3splt to split long audio files into 5 - 10 minute parts. (mp3splt -a -t 5.00 *) Then delete the origanal long files off the thumbdrive.
Great for music. Good for audio books if you don't mind a little extra setup. |
Muy Bueno

This product is very good, price/quality ratio is great. I bought a second one just as a backup as long as they are still available.
The touch-and-feel is not exactly fancy, but as expected for this price ($12). However functionality and sound quality are great.
Overall a great, useful product for a great price. I wholeheartedly recommend it. |
Easy and Powerful

I have used other FM transmitters and my problem is that they either cannot overpower the radio signals in my city or that they do not have enough options for possible channels. This device has neither problem as it has a full range of channels to select and it has no problem overcoming the weaker signals in the city.
It IS somewhat sensitive to high inputs of sound level, so if you plug in an MP3 player and hear it crackling that might be because your player is turned up too high. |
A great little device!

| My purchase arrived very quickly and was all and more than I expected. This clever little transmitter is far superior to a similar product that was stolen last summer. It is easy to use, preforms beautifully, a lot of fun, cost saving, and completely fulfills my desires in this area. My only regret is that I did not purchase two! Dr. R. L. L. |
Low-Quality Product

While the transmitter had decent features (USB/SD playback, full-spectrum tuning), the transmission strength was both too weak and inconsistent. My first unit was so quiet (over it's entire volume range, mind you) to be almost useless. A replacement unit was better, but still only provided sufficient sound when the track being played was already loud. Furthermore, when the in-unit volume was increased, it quickly red-lined the unit, adding to the static.
Lastly, the unit was very poorly constructed. After several months of moderate use, it quite literally fell apart in my hands.
Avoid this product. |
Very happy about this player

I have right expectation on this $12 player. I mainly use it to listen to audio lectures so sound quality isn't big problem. The set up is very easy and I had it working in less than a minute! It recognized my 2 GB Kingston SD card w/o problem.
A few notes:
- the head rotates so that you can adjust to your best viewing angle.
- you have to press the pause button for it to remember the exact location the last mp3 file. Otherwise it will play from the start of the last file, not the exact time location.
- It seems you also need to press the pause to remember the radio frequency.
- Some people reported it gets overheated and fused burned. I always unplug it when I don't use it. The signal is quite strong.
I will buy another one for my the other car. High recommend! |

| I've got one and the sound transmission is poor. Tinny, scratchy, and poppy. My XM radio Roady2 when is in the same vehicle is clear as a bell. |
It's OK

| Keeps stopping after a song. Had to unplug couple of times to get it going. Kind of annoying. It's good when it is working. Transmitter doesn't work that well if your socket is too low. It needs to be "looking" at it. I would not buy this again. |
good so far
