Good mobile radio for listening to local radio
This is a great entry level radio. Easy to program with CHIRP which connects to many radio databases to pull freqs from. The low number of channels to program is a limiting factor, but for the price you can’t beat the UV 5x3. I use mine strictly to listen to several of the local repeaters and it works well for that while still offering the ability to Xmit for those with ham licenses. This radio is not approved by the FCC to Xmit on GMRS.

Bad Suction Cup
The light itself is very good, but when I moved the light to another computer, it does not hold the suction. The light falls off. Can I replace the light or get a new suction part?

It's not bad at all
It heats up quite quickly and quite warmly, but still looks great.

BAD ASS BLUETOOTH
Noise cancelation was exceptional as every single person I spoke with in every environment I was in; inside or outside, found my voice clear, crisp like I was right next to them.Sound quality was wonderful as if we ere sitting next to one another having coffee.Battery life on this is perfect for me. I've had 2hr conversations a few 15 or 20 minute convos throughout day. A few more thought days to follow. It sat for a day. When I went back I had 80% life left. I am really appreciative of this bluetooth.Fit, comfort, secure in ear. I can wear this 6 or 7 hours and 4get it's there. I'm out and about and check it with my hand to be sure it's still in as it's like it isn't there.Glasses wearers, which I am I'm not having the least bit of problem and I have quite little ears.Overall this is a pretty BAD ASS BLUETOOTH.

Not bad for cheap buds
I like these so far, they sound pretty good… not as tinny as other less expensive buds I have owned. What I really like though is the rat hooks. The Apple type pods don’t stay put in my ears and I have to keep pushing them in, these stay put pretty well with the correct Cushing

Overall it’s not bad
I like the screw top attachment, don’t like the placement on the engine. It’s hard to install with the pipes in the way but the filter does it’s job that I can tell. The price seems ok as well. Thank you!

Bad battery life
Purchased the monitor for my elderly mom who has dementia and gets up at different times of the night. It picks up about 80 % of the sound. It gives an alert when it picks up sound to alert you.The biggest drawback is the battery life sucks. I like placing it carrying the monitor with me. A brand new pair of Duracell Coppertop batteries lasted less than two nights before the low battery light went on, about 14 hours.
