    Dog rescue

    I bought these originally for our family when we might go camping. We never really had a chance to use them. This past weekend, our dog was lost on a mountain and we used this to coordinate with each other. We did not have cell phone service, so it was really helpful to have. Range was great! Good quality! Easy to use! The one thing to be careful about is attaching it to your waistband. We lost one because we were navigating really thick brush and it was attached to the waistband using the clip provided. You may want to attach it through a belt loop.

    So far so good. Works well. Haven’t pushed the range limits yet. My only issue is when I set my walkie down next to my car stereo, it tends to pick up static from my radio as if someone’s trying to communicate with me

    Excellent sound, range, and custom user features. I got these to communicate with friends when off-roading, and have not had any issues with them at all. Much more affordable than some others, yet still provide a lot of the same staple and necessary features. I have only had them die on me once, and it was probably because I did not charge tham at all between a string of three consecutive outings. The battery indicator is misleading. They read as full battery, but they obviously were not. Even when they died on me, letting them sit for a few minutes and trying to turn them back on the battery indicator read full again. Just keep them charged or charge them up right before going out and that won't be an issue.

    Ragnar Race

    These were purchased for communication during a Ragnar Race in Utah and worked great. They helped with communication between base camp and the runners. There were a few spots with broken reception, but that was primarily due to the runner and basecamp being separated by a mountain. The third radio helped with being able to relay though as a team member may have been closer. Cant wait to use them again this summer on family camping trips.

    Bought these on sale and I have to say they work really well. Got these as a back way to contact my wife for emergency outages. 26 miles based on a clear line of sight from what I can tell but overall, works well.

    Great little radios for traveling

    We used these radios to travel as a group together up in the backwoods of Minnesota and Ontario. I have no idea how the manufacturers can say that it's a 26 mile range, after about a mile on the interstate and backroads that was about it for range. When not traveling at highway speeds and on the lake it had a range of about 2 1/2 miles. they worked well within those smaller areas but once you got out past a mile or so it was pretty broken up. If you were going to use them with scouts and they stayed within a mile of the camp, it would be fine, anything outside of that range, you need better communication tools.

    These walkies provide a great value and are easy to use. I purchased them so I could teach my wife and kids the basics of communication long range in case there were an emergency. They're also convenient at a fair and of course camping.

    These radios worked perfect in the woods. I bought them so I could communicate with my bro in law while hunting because cell phone service is nonexistent where we go. Good range and easy to use with gloves on. I also bought the in ear cable so volume wasn’t a huge deal. These radios have amazing speakers that can be loud
