    Have not took them out to really test their distance and reception. They did charge quickly, and are dark in appearance. That I prefer for privacy. I did have to figure the operation of the radios which took some time.

    We bought these to use with ear pieces for while we were riding ATV's. The VOX didnt work at all as it picked up the sound of the ATV and was constantly transmitting from just one rider. Even though there is a sensitivity setting it didnt work as one radio was always transmitting. Would not buy again, will just try to find a bluetooth adapter for our helmets instead.

    My shop is located about 150 yards from the main house. Shop has no phones, cell reception is iffy... These work very well for my purposes of keeping in communication with the main house.

    Purchased to use for a cycling event so our volunteers could communicate between trailheads. We found that the radio reach, especially in wooded areas, was subpar. After less than a mile between radios, the signal dropped off.
