1.8" LCD Wireless Car MP4 MP3 Player FM Transmitter SD MMC USB - From China
I decided to try out these items from a Chinese supplier for the car to see if they were any cop. I read some good reviews about some FM car transmitters and some bad so I thought it was probably going to end in disappointment this order and didn't hold my breath.
When I recieved the transmitters though I was very very impressed! The quality of them is amazing and very sturdy as in the pictures I kind of thought they were going to be very light and have a cheap plastic feel to them, but they actually feel a very sturdy little gadget for a such a great price.
The interface is fairly basic and when you load your SD card into the transmitter, it organises them into folders which you can name yourself on the SD card, however if you turn it off and on midway through a song, you have to find the song again and press play from the start, as it will not remember like a car CD player , where a song has been stopped or paused before being turn off. Apart from that Small Little niggle, its a great device to buff up your tunes in the car and is very stylish too.
As soon as my mates seen it in my Peugeot 206 going to the cinema or out for drinks, the little screen fascinated them by what else it could do all lit up and looking very cool in my very crappy 206. They thought it was something from the future I had brought back but I couldn't get to the future as my 206 struggles to get up to 88 miles per hour.
The controls are very simple and basic as the buttons on the device are very intuitive and clearly tell you what they do with the symbols on them. One very cool features is that there is a remote control included with each unit. This is good if you are busy driving and cannot find a song you want, where you can pass control over to someone in the back to find the songs for you while you drive.
As everything is on an SD card your music, you can have tons of songs literally 100's on a tiny SD card without carrying around loads of CD's and chopping and changing them every two seconds.
You can get these on Ebay for like £7-£9 and its a very worthy investment if you keep lots of your tunes on an SD card. I suggest testing these items when you get them simply turn you car engine on, stick them to the cigarette lighter quickly to see it power up and see the welcome message. Some people I notice from suppliers feedback do say now and again out of maybe 20 they order maybe one when they plug it in is totally dead. Its a very small percentage but just incase you sell it to a customer and they get a bit angry with you selling broken stuff and they get a bit miffed off about it.
Below is the product specs from one suppliers website.
Thanks for reading.

ReplyDeleteNo problem anytime :) Have not ordered much over past year and a half from China so haven't been able to update this blog as much I am afraid. I lost job ages ago for about a year and just getting back on feet now, however may start ordering some more things from China and review them. Only thing is if you order from chinese suppliers to sell on sites like Ebay, Amazon etc, the same suppliers are selling the same products you are trying to sell, only much much lower, even lower than they sold them to you in first place which makes it very difficult to do now online. But any other information I get on products will put it up :)
DeleteI can't seem to get mine to read the music off of my flash drive, is there a certian way I have to have it set up on the flash?
ReplyDeleteHi sorry for the late response, I think the only reason could be that its having trouble reading your card is that it may be too big a card, as some devices can only read up to 8GB, 16GB, 32GB 64GB maximum supported etc, what size is your card? If it is a very high storage capacity it may not be able to support it I am afraid. The other reason could be it may support cards up to a certain class (Probably the lower classes). If you have a high speed class 10 card for instance this may not be compatible with the device. Hope this helps thanks.
