Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the impressive range and good sound quality of the Hero Series 16-Mile, 22-Channel FRS/GMRS 2-Way Radios. Many also appreciate the radios' ease of use and find them to be a good value for the price. The compact size is another plus for some users. However, a common complaint centers around the relatively short battery life.

    These work fine as walkies for trips or for the kids to play with. They burn batteries pretty quickly.

    Real good product for teens and up, kids have problems pressing the button to talk without their thumbs or fingers changing the settings by hitting one of the buttons on the face.

    The rain sucks, that's the only downside. For the price that works in a neighborhood with 1 acre lots and I can get two blocks away. The only thing extra that you would have to purchase on your own is rechargeable batteries. It has a MicroSD charger plug to charge those on its own like a cell phone.
