Review on FANGOR 7.5’’ Dual Car DVD Player: Headrest Video CD Player with Two Screens, USB/SD/MMC Card Reader Support, Last Memory, Regions Free by Jerry Delic

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great at $80 for a headrest Video

Last time I looked for car DVD players they were all worth $150+. It was great to find something for $80. Our old car DVD player consisted of three parts: a DVD player and two screens. This worked well when my kids were little because we could control both devices from the front seat. Now that the boys are older (5 and 3 years old) our 5 year old can operate the main unit. I just have to turn around to put the DVD in properly. It's not difficult at all as long as I'm sitting in front of the main unit (i.e. I'm in the passenger seat and the main unit is behind the driver. This product has two units: the main unit is where you put the DVD or other media (USB, SD) The slave unit is slave to the master unit The units are simply connected to the master unit with a power cord from a standard wall outlet or car Two cables from the master unit to the slave unit The master unit controls the volume for both units The slave unit is the master unit slave, if the main unit is off, the slave screen will do nothing, if the main unit is off (volume down to 0), the slave unit will get no sound either, the slave unit can increase or decrease the volume and turn off the screen by itself .The battery is also a great feature!I think I tested it for up to an hour when nu r the main unit was on, do not plug in a car. I didn't wait for the battery to die so I have no idea how long it will last. As with all batteries, I'm sure it will last less and less. Still, a nice feature that I wasn't expecting for $80. The devices are quite small. Not bulky at all compared to our old screens. Excellent picture and brightness. The volume is a little lower than my kids would like. I recommend headphones. Headphones are for me and for her :) IMPORTANT NOTE: The cable sockets are set so that the main unit is behind the driver's seat. This arrangement worked perfectly for us as an adult passenger can help operate the main unit on long journeys. . But if you've tried introducing the Dist from the driver's seat, it can be tricky. If needed, the cables are likely long enough to stretch if you need to swap them out. Our cables (the two that run from the main unit to the secondary unit) reach almost to the feet and then return to the second unit. Disadvantages The DVD main unit spins a little noisily. Most people won't notice this, but when I sat in the back and the main unit was right in front of me, it was a little annoying. The telephone jack on the slave unit's main unit is located between the two cables coming from the main unit. A little awkward to find and connect. If the child before the main block doesn't want to watch the show and turns off their block, the slave block won't show anything either. Same with sound as above.

Pros
