The Best Walkie Talkies

The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute deemed this set of two two-way radios The Best because they transmitted the clearest audio over the longest distance. During testing in an urban environment, users of The Best Walkie Talkies could clearly hear each other when they were 0.7 miles apart. In contrast, even at half that distance, lesser models were plagued by static, feedback, and choppy sound that impeded communication. Analysts found it easy to select one of The Best model’s seven FRS and 15 GMRS channels, and to recharge the 10-hour NiMH batteries via the included dock. Lightweight and splash-resistant, The Best Walkie Talkies are useful everywhere from campgrounds to corn mazes to the mall and receive NOAA weather alerts. Includes backlit buttons, hands-free operation, and privacy settings to limit interference. With a maximum 40-mile range in optimal conditions over licensed GMRS channels. Set of two radios. Each 8" L x 2" W x 1 1/2" D. (Each 1 1/2 lbs.)
