Amazon.com Product Description
Spend more time enjoying your favorite iPod tunes and less time searching for a high-quality audio signal with the Kensington QuickSeek FM transmitter/car charger. Like other FM transmitters, the unit broadcasts your iPod's music through your vehicle's stereo speakers, so you can groove to your full digital music collection without buying an expensive iPod-compatible car stereo. But unlike with competing models, you don't have to fiddle with the transmitter for several minutes to find a static-free station. Instead, the unit's QuickSeek technology locates the best FM signal in mere seconds, making tuning easier than ever. All you have to do is connect the transmitter to your iPod's dock connector, plug the car charger into your vehicle's 12-volt power outlet, and you're set.

The QuickSeek boasts Kensington's ClearFM technology, which delivers richer lows, crisper highs, and superior stereo separation with a "concert hall" effect--all through your regular stereo speakers. The ClearFM circuitry also includes the company's patented filtering technology, which results in the lowest harmonic distortion and signal-to-noise ratios of any FM transmitter on the market today--up to three times clearer than Kensington's competitors. Handiest of all, the detachable car charger isn't for iPods only, as it also works with other USB-powered devices, such as mobile or smartphones, PDAs, and more.

Other details include three programmable preset buttons for storing FM stations, an ultra-bright display, and a detachable spacer to ensure a custom fit with iPod models in a case. The QuickSeek FM transmitter is backed by a two-year warranty.

2.0 out of 5 stars I've Tested Both Kensington Models, DO NOT BUY THIS ONE!!, October 7, 2007

This review is from: Kensington 33384 QuickSeek FM Transmitter/Car Charger for iPod (Electronics)
This is my second Kensington. Althought this model is "newer" than the other model I own (Kensington 33199 Digital FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for iPod (Black), if you compare them side by side, this newer model will make you go a little crazy - it really pales in comparison in terms of ease of use (I'm using it with a 30GB Ipod 5.5 Video).

The main flaw with this transmitter is that it just plain needs a lot of "tweaking" to get it to work. This means every time you power up your car and want to drive down the road while listening to your Ipod. Here's a literal comparison: OLDER MODEL (33199) - start car, wait 2 seconds for transmitter to kick in and override the FM frequency playing, hit "play" on the Ipod. THIS MODEL - start car, wait 6 seconds and I'm still hearing static as transmitter hasn't started operation,...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the Price, July 18, 2007
This review is from: Kensington 33384 QuickSeek FM Transmitter/Car Charger for iPod (Electronics)
The Kensington 33384 QuickSeek is worth the few extra dollars. The auto seek for me is great. Take it out of the box plug it into your Ipod and it gives you the best FM station to use. No fuss. So far no static problems. For me this is a good investment just for the ease of use. The only negative is that the FM unit fits very close to the Ipod body; mine is a 30GB Video and I have to take it out of its case to connect the FM transmitter. It's small convenient and easy to use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware, August 4, 2007
This review is from: Kensington 33384 QuickSeek FM Transmitter/Car Charger for iPod (Electronics)
I received a defective unit and it is a PAIN to return this product. I'm told you can not directly return to either Amazon or the company that sells it through Amazon but rather it has to go back to the manufacturer. The whole process is very poorly documented and cumbersome. Next time I'll go to a physical store and buy another product.
