One of the most important life-saving devices you can have

Spending a lot of time on the water, just like us. Some emergency supplies aren't a luxury, they're a necessity. We take this radio with us on every boat or jet ski trip. No matter how short or distant the day may be, the day can be calm or difficult. You never know, the handheld radio works well on most channels the marina uses and I can safely say it makes me feel safer. I also attest to its durability.

Pros
  • With integrated Lion battery, AC/DC charging cable and charging station. 3 year warranty and 3 year fully waterproof.
Cons
  • Long wait

It turned on and worked, today I checked it!

This item was sent to me on 06/16. billed and delivery took 2 days. I believe I was billed again in August when it actually shipped. Lol I don't know why they think I wanted to pay double the money and wait 2 months for the 2 day delivery but the second bill hasn't been returned yet! It doesn't help that Amazon support hung up after I asked if she was drunk! (She was drunk) so this is another request for a second bill refund! Also, the Coast Guard VHF radio is an emergency device, the people…

Pros
  • It floats, meets the strictest IPX8 / JIS8 waterproofing standards and even cleans the speaker of water after it's been submerged. 6W transmit power, 6W, 2.5W or 1W transmit power at user's choice.
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Works well good value for money wish it had an AC charger

I just bought a boat and it didn't have a VHF installed yet. So I picked up this radio and decided that even if I get a built in later this would be a good fallback. This is probably the cheapest marine VHF I've seen in stock at the time of purchase and it's also a branded product. We've been gone all day. in the boat and it worked well - you could clearly hear the Coast Guard speaking. I didn't try to call anyone. My only complaint is that it only has a cigarette charger. Therefore I can only…

Pros
  • Receives all marine channels including all US, Canadian and international VHF marine channels (including new 4 digit channels and Canadian "B" channels) and receives all NOAA weather channels and alerts.
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Requires work to charge

According to the instructions, the initial charge takes 13 hours. To charge it you need either; (1) Plug in the car cigarette lighter [my car cigarette lighter is only on when the car is running], (2) remove the batteries to charge in a separate charger [not included] or (3) buy a separate 120v ac charger to car cigarette lighter adapter 12v dc current [I chose this one].

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • -

Great product with good range and battery life saved me in an emergency

I actually have both a 155 and 275 but I would recommend anyone to get a 275 I really don't understand what the purpose of 155 is except to save a few bucks. It's not much smaller than the 275 and has less range. 275 is great. The battery lasts for several days if you do not transmit, but only monitor the 16th channel. Unfortunately, my kit didn't come with a DC charging cable, so I can only charge it at home with 120 volt AC. I think you can get a DC charging cable for it, but although it's…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • No
