The Transmitter has around 8 ft of transmitting range on direct site to the target stereo. The sound quality is pretty good up to max transmitting range at which point it drops rapidly. The Transmitter goes to sleep around 1 minute after idle. The Transmitter works as a car charger even on sleep mode. However it works out of your iPhone's battery, so it does not need to be connected to the charger in order to work. The provide mini USB to USB cable can be detach from the car charger and plug into any USB Home Charger that you own. On long travels it is a bit frustrating finding empty FM Frequencies to Tune into. It may be irrelevant to most of us but it may be something to consider for truck drivers and those people with long commutes.

I honestly cannot believe it has a 4-star rating (note that the rating is based on only a handful of customer reviews). Before you buy, be sure to check out other feedback on this SAME item that is sold from multiple sellers via Amazon (that feedback is more consistent with mine). When using this transmitter, there is constant interference (even when it is plugged into the charger). When it is not plugged in, the interference is simply intolerable. In addition to the static, the music sounds weak and muffled (no matter where the unit is placed in the car). I have tried to use this transmitter for three days now -- and it has done nothing but frustrate me. The ONLY reason I gave 2 stars is because it doubles as a charger. 10 of 11 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: iCandy FM Transmitter for iPhone and iPod with Car Charger (Electronics) I researched several fm tranmitter models before purchasing this one. I'm glad I purchased this one! Set-up was easy...I found an available station, plugged in the transmitter, and the music instantly played through my car stero speakers. The clarity and the quality of the sound were better than I expected. I have experienced very little static. If you purchase this product, invest in a case with a bottom that can be easily removed. The transmitter works better when the bottom portion of the iPhone is not in a case. I would definitely reccomend this produt to other iPhone users. I'm sure that on long trips I may need to find differnet FM stations, but that is no fault of the equipment...simply the nature of the service. |
