 (4 customer reviews)

good product, works extremely well, that other comment above me must have had a crappy car system, but i have a standard fm radio in my car, and it rules. heck when im cruising, or with frineds, i can also interrupt their radio stations with some eminem relapse.
Good Product. only bad thing is that it sorta saps the energy from your ipod.But you still get like 12 hours of music.

I bought this to replace the last one I owned (it went through the washing machine and was no longer functional). In any case, the transmitter works great with my Nano and iTouch. I do find that I need to keep the transmiter and iPod close the radio for it get a clean reception.

Note that if you have any kind of case on your iPod, it's likely that the transmitter won't be able to reach the contacts within the iPod. I find that I have to remove the rubberized case from the iPod.

I bought this because, well, for one, the price was great. And also because I've had some transmitters that you have to plug into the cigarette lighter (one broke when I pulled it out of the outlet and it was an $80 belkin, and the other kept blowing my lighter fuse). This one is nice because it just operated off of my ipod battery and I can listen for awhile before I have to charge my ipod. It doesn't seem to be draining the ipod battery either.

As far as finding a station that will play, I haven't really had any trouble. Our radios stations are flooded and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to find a station that would work. But after a couple tries finding the right one, I haven't had to change the station since.

I have no complaints about this transmitter, I'm glad I bought it!
