Not Worth ItMay 18, 2007 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I purchased these radio walkie-talkies as a fun way of communicating with my brother, who lives 4 miles away. What the description doesn't mention is that you cannot communicate with anyone in an urban setting more than about 10 blocks away (@ 1/4 mile) ESPECIALLY if there are houses and hills. I'm sure you can communicate 15 miles away if the radio signals had no landscape interference in between, but these are really worthless if you live in a city and the other walkie-talkie is more than a few buildings away. We even tried standing on the rooves of our apartments to give the radio waves a clearer shot, but that doesn't work. The batteries die within an hour and you can charge them for days and days - the batteries still only last an hour. And withing 5 minutes of using them, the battery indicator shows you that it's already low!! Go Uniden!
Really poor battery life!February 20, 2007 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I use these radios daily and have no problem with them whatsoever except that the batteries die after five hours or so. I need them for work and can never get through a shift with the rechargeables. They work great with regular batteries though.
Nice radio, terrible battery lifeJanuary 30, 2007 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
The batteries take 12-16 hours to charge, and drain out in less than an hour. I am sorry I bought these, what a joke!
Not 15-mile range at allJanuary 25, 2007 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
This two-way radio is far from having a 15-mile range. Apparently all these radios does not have the range that they claim. There are many reviews on different brands telling this.
BEST RADIO EVER!October 11, 2006 29 out of 34 found this review helpful
This has to be the best handheld radio ever! You can turn all of the features off, so you can have public or private conversations. Ingenious design, rugged, even has a power boost button. With this radio, I could understand the person on the other end up to 12 MILES AWAY in a forest! This is the best consumer radio avaliable.
