Summary: Works great. Super price.
Comment: Must say this was one of the best Christmas presents that came out of Santa's bag this year! I researched a lot of these transmitters before I purchased one and this one really works! I use it on one setting in my vehicle and the other vehicle uses it on another radio station and both are fantastic. Very little static. I mean, you will get some, but its really not a bother...tends to be in certain areas with a lot of towers or transmitters around. We live in a fairly rural area, but travel a lot in a very busy metro area and get very little interference. I have had 2 other people purchase them since I got mine and they feel the same way. Stop shopping and buy this one. I rarely rave about a produce, but after 6 mos of use we are very pleased with the results. Definitely the right price for what you get.

Summary: Transmitter first rate
Comment: I have enjoyed this FM transmitter for eleven months. I like the fact all the controls are right in the base to the lighter. It is easy to find your channel because the design of the frequency switches. With one click, you can go from 88.3 to 107.3. This has been a great addition to my IPod.

Summary: Does not work
Comment: No reception on any of the available frequencies. I live in a rural area with plenty of un-used frequencies and should have had no problem with the signal. It is a cheap piece of junk and I would never recommend it to anyone. I would give it a zero star rating, but it wasn't an option.

Summary: A great, inexpensive choice!
Comment: First of all, I am NOT an audiophile....I just run a stock stereo in my car, nothing fancy. This works very well for me....there is a slight hiss at high volume, but turn it down just a notch and it sounds fine. I didn't have a hard time finding a station at all. Overall, it was well worth the money I spent on it!

Summary: Great Product
Comment: I got this charger/transmitter as a present and I love it! I honestly feel like I "can't live without it!" The signal strength is great, it charges the iPod while it transmits, and it only costs slightly more than a transmitter that doesn't charge! I did wear this out after only one year of use. I would have bought a new one immediately but couldn't find this model in any of the local stores so I tried out several others and they just didn't compare. In the end I tossed the others and bought this one again. My husband just bought himself an iPod and I'm getting him one of these transmitters. We're very happy with this one!

Pros:
Charges AND transmits - my iPod battery is NEVER low!

Easy to switch from car to car - great when you have a car rental

good signal strength - expiremented and husband got clear signal 3-5 car
lengths ahead of me

cost - not much more expensive than a transmitter w/out charger

doesn't require batteries, plugs into the cigarette adapter instead

turns off when you turn off your car

The cord length is fairly long, allowing a nice radius for you to place
your iPod

Cons:
Wore my first one out after about a year

iPod turns off when engine shuts down so every time you restart the car
you have to restart your iPod, not a big deal unless you're sitting
around waiting for someone and you turn the engine on and off while
you're waiting - even then it's a small inconvenience

It's not easy to switch the frequency while driving

Only 8 frequencies to choose from (although that has never actually been a
problem for me, it could be for you)

Other:
Tried several different kinds - this def the best, better signal than any
other I have tried

Even after the transmitter wore out the charger still worked
