(5 out of 5)Handy MP3 Player
Plays MP3's to your car FM Radio. Sound is good quality, this depends also on your car FM radio. I listen to this every day on the way to work, and I have no trouble with the sound.
I keep all the MP3's stored on my flash drive, then just plug into the Modulator. The handy thing is, that it remembers the last MP3 played, so it always restarts from the same track when the car starts. That's important, I used to have another modulator with out this feature, and it drove me nuts.
I would recommend this, to anyone who wants to play MP3's in the car, but doesn't want the hassle of installing a fixed MP3 player.
Remote control proved to be useful. I can always keep my eyes on the road. The only thing lacking, is an LCD display. But modulators with LCD displays cost about twice as much.
Also, it doesn't overheat, and stays cool.
(4 out of 5)Very promising
This car mp3 transmitter is better than a lot of BRAND NAME product.
Pro: Sound quality is FM like.
No interference.
Easy to set up.
Resumes after power off.
Runs cool.
No line hassle.
No additional batteries needed.
Great and handy remote control (never see in other product).
Cons: 7 channels may not be enough for some people.(I am perfectly fine with it)
It is hard to see the channel setting in darkness. (Not a big problem to me since it remembers the channel setting. I set up once and never touch it again)
It accepts MP3 only. I never try WMA. If it does, it should states in the manual.
It doesn't browse folders. It only forwards/backwards song by song.
Vendor Service:
Delivery time is reasonable. I live in CA and get mine in one week.
Confirmation email is sent within one day. Tracking number is included.
Bottom Line:
If you want to try a better model, he is selling a upper model for $35 with LCD screen. It has all features that this one doesn't have. It also has good review. But for $25 + $5 shipping, this product is solid and promising.
(5 out of 5)Better than Costco one
I used FM transmitter from Costco. It was good but it cannot remember the position once you turn off the car. You have to forward every time. That is very painful. I stopped using FM transmitter after a month.
I came to know about this product from my colleague purchased this product. I was skeptical so I borrowed for couple of days. It is very good product. Now I am planning to buy one.
I forgot to tell you... Remote is very handy. I no longer need to locate the forward button on FM transmitter while driving.
(5 out of 5)Nifty radio tuner
Have been looking for a multi-functional radio tuner for a while, to hook up an Mp3 player to. This serves the trick nicely, as well as giving me other options - I can hook a CD player into it, or just hook a memory stick full of MP3s into it and it will play any of them through my car's sound system.
The quality of sound produced by it is decent as well.
(5 out of 5)Best I've used in MP3/FM transmitter units
For the price you can not beat this unit! With several FM station TX selections, last song played memory, low power consumption, and a remote to boot for start/stop, volume up/down, and previous/next play! I've had others and they all lacked one or more of the features above. I can even use it in the home with a 110v to 12v cig lighter converter I purchased awhile back...talk about convenient! No streaming titles, but that's not a problem for me as I know most of the songs that are playing anyway. Honest, I don't see how you can go wrong with this setup in your car when you think how much an mp3 player add-on would cost.
