simple, yet effective February 12, 2010 sunflower (Boulder, Colorado) My newer old car doesn't have a tape player, only radio and CD... so only one way to listen to the iPod in it, via radio. To my knowledge anyway...
I had an old Belkin transmitter that finally bit it after extensive use. And with the latest and greatest from Apple, I was confused as to what to get to replace it. Did I want the most current Griffin iTrip that "supposedly" charged the iPhone 3G and played the iPod? Expensive. Finally, after much deliberation, I settled on this one. Got it on sale and it made it even more affordable. I figured I have an iPod, why worry if the iPhone can be used with it too? I mean, the iPhone will be the phone phone and I don't really receive or make calls while driving (not since the bluetooth headset broke), and I never seem to run out of battery after 10-12 hours driving long distance. So, the iPod is all I really need to get music, right? So I settled. And I'm pleased! I thought on a whim, I'll try plugging in the iPhone because I forgot the iPod in the house. After telling me it suggested I turn on Airport mode, which I agreed to, I had music and saw the battery charging! My 3G charges and plays with this Griffin FM transmitter!! Who'dda thunk? I'm loving it. I recommend it.
Yes, there's always going to be static-y noise interrupting as we live in a world full of radio waves and all those other waves and wires ready to pick them all up when they get close. Inescapable, I feel. But overall, I live with it. They're temporary annoyances. When they get too bothersome, I simply use the auto-search button and retune my radio and I'm good to go till the next town's waves interrupt again.
excellent but not outstanding February 8, 2010 Brian A. Berenbach (Princeton, NJ) I had some concern about the unit because I had to place it near the shift lever, which is about 2 feet from the radio. It still worked fine. I used the auto detect feature to find an unused station and it worked fine after that. Occasionally as i drive 10 or more kilometers i have to change the channel by autoscanning again as i get a small amount of static, but otherwise works perfectly. Sure beats spending hundreds of dollars to rewire my radio, and it is really easy to use.
Happy January 7, 2010 Sam K I love this product! The only thing I don't like is that I do not have the option to turn of the charging while using it. Other than that, It is great!
Great product! December 6, 2009 Nicole Fleming (Las Vegas,NV) This is so much better than the previous FM Transmitter I had purchased from Belkin. That one was so bulky and the signal was horrible. However with this product, if one station didn't work as well, there are others that worked AND the sound quality was excellent! I actually bought another one and gave it to my uncle as a birthday present!! Great product!
works great especially on 87.9 or lower November 30, 2009 L. Allen (Austin, TX) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Like several of the other Griffin iTrip fm transmitters, this unit can be switched to international mode, which opens up the option to use frequencies lower than 88.1. No US radio stations can broadcast on frequencies lower than 88.1, so now I don't have to worry about interference!
To switch this unit to international mode, press and hold both the plus and minus (+ and -) buttons at the same time. If you hold it a while, it will give you the option to switch between LX and DX modes (stero and mono). If you keep holding the plus and minus button longer, it will give you the option to switch between US and international modes.
