The radios worked for two weeks and they were ok, though reception was a little staticy. But after two weeks one battery failed.

The battery died after about two days of use; it would not recharge. I emailed Audivox and Powtek (the battery manufacturer) and got nothing back from either. It's a shame because the transceiver device itself worked great, but the batteries are lemons, can't be replaced, and there is apparently no support.

BUYER BEWARE!!

I put these on my sons when we go shopping, If they walk off I just push the call button and walk in the direction of the call signal. My son walked away from me in a large store one day and he called me on the radio and told me where he was and I went right to him. Not too great for long range communication, but it works for what I use it for

I got the Audiovox wrist two way radio as a present. When I tried to recharge the battery, it wouldn't recharge. My parents tried to find a new battery. They finally wrote to Audiovox. Audiovox wrote that we could purchase the battery from them (...). The model number for the battery is GMRS2WBAT.

Same problem as the others noted below. The batteries are of outrageously poor quality and it's difficult at best to find a replacement battery anywhere other than from Audiovox. They want more for the battery than I paid for the radio itself!
