Bluetooth Adapter

This is item has several issues. First, it does not fit tightly in my 12V port. Occasionally, when the car hits a bump, it pops out, which then requires resetting the adapter to the car radio station, which requires pulling over, because the setup procedure is not intuitive. Second, once the adapter has captured the radio station, it will not take priority of the station, if there is any radio station close to the frequency, the adapter allows the interference. This is very disappointing, especially on long trips when traveling from city to city.
Finally, the buttons and display are awkward.

Bought this to go hands free. Little disappointed with the static and lack of being able to choose station you want to lock on to. You get what you pay for.

Useful if your car does not have Bluetooth or AUX built-in. You can plug this in, connect your phone or Bluetooth enabled audio player to it, set a frequency to transmit and listen to the audio through your car's FM radio.
However, I ended up returning this particular one and buying a different transmitter that worked better/clearer.

I turned up the volume on the phone and on the app and the sound was still scratchy when listening to a podcast. I even tried different radio stations.

Quick and easy Bluetooth connection as you would expect. However the sound quality is a step down from other FM transmitters I have used.
Ok for voice and background music, but not great for head-banging to Bohemian Rhapsody. Party on Wayne...

Of all the other transmitters thats use radio frequency to play music, this is by far the best one. Unfortunately, that isnt saying much. The quality is not that great as you can still hear some static even in the best channels.

This item does work. But there is often some background noise and slight interference. For the price, I would have expected a little better quality, but it does do what it says on the box.

The only thing negative is sometimes you have background noise. To be able to talk without having to hold my phone is so much safer.
