It worked first time for me. Looks like some people have had trouble. It worked on the channel like it came set -- the lowest one (107.6?). If I wiggle the plug into the headphone jack, I get static -- so I stopped wiggling. I have a 1-ton, 4WD truck with a stiff suspension and I've yet to hit a bump that causes the static.

Sound is clear and good quality. The thing is only about 2.5" long so it fits anywhere. 12V adapter is great & no replacing batteries (2) AAA's. If you don't want the power cord, it unplugs from the transmitter.

It seems that a dozen sellers market this thing under different names. It's so much cheaper than the others that it's worth a try, even if you decide you'd rather pay more for high-end unit. The expensive ones probably use the same electronics in a bigger box. ;")

I've owned a similar item, the only difference was that it operated on 88.1 to 88.9 which worked great almost everywhere, but ended up short circuiting and I would struggle to receive a signal, so I decided to purchase this item. I plugged it in and it works great in Eastern Idaho, but I drove to SLC and attempted to use this item and all I received was static or feedback from other stations. I recommend this item if you live in a rural area that doesn't use 106.? as a radio frequency.

There are several comments about static. You can remove the static by turning the volume on high on the mp3, and adjusting the radio volume. This immediately removes the static.

I ordered this so that I could play my mp3's on my car stereo (this car doesn't have and auxiliary input). I was excited because it said how "new" this product was to the market and how promising it was. At a little under $4 I though I was getting an incredible deal, as most of the others were at least $15. First off it took about two weeks to get to me (other orders get to me within about a week), and honestly I thought I had been scammed because it was from another company, but sold through Amazon. I love Amazon. What a waste of even that $4! I could have bought a gallon of gas and been WAY happier. It could barely tune into a station and when it did, the static was so terrible that I couldn't hear the music hardly at all. I could hear it better though when I would hold the stupid thing literally against my mp3 player....how safe is this while driving??? Even still the sound quality was ridiculously bad. I can't express enough to you to spend that extra bit of money and get something that actually is worth what you're paying for it. I used it for one 15 minute car ride "fumbling" with this piece of garbage trying to get it to work while avoiding getting into and accident, and then unplugged it and through it on the car floor next to the trash I was going to throw out at the gas station. I later bought the Coby one and while it did cost more, I LOVE it and it works like a charm. This is what you get for trying to save money on something you really shouldn't. So please, avoid the frustration that I went through and don't buy this thing.Wireless Fm Transmitter + Car Charger for Mp3/ipod

I received the transmitter yesterday. Here is what I learned:
1. You need to have batteries in the device to let it transmit. If you just use the supplied car adapter, you get nothing.
2. Be very careful turning the power on. Apparently, I pressed too hard and now the button is stuck in the on position. I'll be getting a screwdriver out to open up the unit and see why it is permanently on.
3. Be careful how hard you pressed the power when turning it on. The transmitted sound comes with a lot of static if you pressed to hard.
4. Sound quality is poor. I expected some reduced quality from the unit to my speakers, but the filtering just seemed like too much.

I am glad this only cost me $5.53 including shipping. I figured that if I had a bad experience, I could warn others and then drop $40 on a decent unit. If it worked, I would have saved about $25. I took the risk and lost. I've ordered the MBL-FM XMTR300 (Monster RadioPlay 300 Universal Full Spectrum FM Transmitter for $38.13).

Great product for a great price. The sound queality is OK, but if your looking for something cheap and inexpensive. Get this.

Very impressed by the quality of this device, considering the low price. Some times you have to position it a certain way to get the best quality sound without static, but not a big deal. I purchased an additional one for my son, and he loves it.

The transmitter works very well except for the power button controlling the battery power. It is very sticky and hard to use. I am also VERY impressed with the company that sells it. I would recommend them to anyone. They were very accomadating with any problem that i had and were very professional.
Great!

The seller has good customer services. I return the product and they refund, the transaction is very smooth. However, this product can not be stabilized at all. I have to return the item finally. Recommend the buyer to check the local frequency before you make purchase.

I often drive a company vehicle that only has a FM Radio, and commercials drive me crazy. So I bought this item, so I can listen to my music on those long trips. I am quite satisfied. The only 2 problem are that the cigarette lighter adapter did not make a good enough connection to work correctly (but it also runs on AAA batteries), and sometimes there is interference around certain Schools and Businesses. All in all it works very well.
