Review on ๐ŸŽต iTrip Universal FM Transmitter and Charger for MP3 Players by Griffin Electronics by Matthew Sutton

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great deal on Bluetooth and FM transmitters

Like all FM transmitters, Griffin ITrip allows you to connect any MP3 player to your car stereo. This device supplies power from the 12V socket in your car, saving you battery costs, but otherwise the ITrip works and works just like other FM transmitters. If you don't have an iPod and don't use Griffin devices that plug into the iPod socket, you can only use them in the car (for 12V power supply). Area of the country in which you are traveling. Big cities with lots of interfering radios will annoy users of these devices trying to find and save clean frequencies to work while driving. On the other hand, living in an area with lots of radio stations minimizes the need for alternative music sources like an MP3 player. Smaller towns with fewer radio stations work much better as you probably won't have to search for a new frequency to broadcast while you're out. The big plus of the Griffin line is that they are the developers of these devices and they deal with them. over ten years. Many other transmitter brands are nothing more than the Sony name on the box. You pay the same amount and get a smaller unit. The Griffin line is just a cut above most of the competition. Overall, the device performs very well despite its built-in limitations. The highlight of this offer was being able to get it for $2.99 through the Revain Marketplace! I couldn't find it online for less than $30, and local stores like Best Buy and Target sell this model for $40-$60. If you've always wanted to try an FM transmitter for your MP3 player, this Griffin model is a very good choice. If you have an iPod, grab a pass and buy a Griffin transmitter that uses an iPod connector and battery. It is more flexible as it has no wires and can be used to broadcast through a home receiver, portable radio, etc.

Pros
