MOICO Walkie Talkies for Adults, 22 Channel Long Range FRS Two-Way Radios

These are not my first set of small radio walkie talkies, so I have some experience with them and this help me set my expectations. Our needs were specific with these in that my wife had foot surgery and has regular need to assistance from me throughout the day and night. As this is a long recovery (3 months) I felt like we needed to replace our failed set of radios that had finally died with something similar. I chose these and we have been very pleased. She can easily get my attention before speaking with the call signal (sent by pressing the speak button twice rapidly) and then we communicate. We are both pleased with the clarity and volume for $20.00 radios. We also picked orange and black which is hard to lose...and the clip on the back goes on a pocket, belt, or collar quite easily. We have not used them between vehicles BUT we have used them between her being inside while I was outside and they worked well in spite of the fact that our house has foil faced insulation and virtually no radio signals go in or out through it. Distance on our property might be an issue if I were to go farther afield, but I am staying close during this time. When I leave for short trips we simply switch to cell phones. The only issue we face, as some have pointed out, is battery consumption. I do not really believe they are any worse than any of the other radios we have used. We turn them off when we are in the same room or if I am within earshot of her. Some days they are on constantly (until bed time) and we still get several days out of each set of 4 AAA batteries. Would it be nice if they had rechargeable battery packs? Sure, but at a $20.00 price point I do not see that happening. Once she is back on her feet later this summer I will take the batteries out of them, store them away in the office, until we have brief need of them again. They are great for two people matching switches and outlets to breakers on different floors for instance. If you want to go the rechargeable route for more constant use, definitely do so! But for us these are just for a while, and then they will go up on a shelf.

I got these for my husband and I since we moved (we have a lot of land and he loves to be outside) and we are were having a baby. Him and I have really enjoyed having these. Its a fun and easy way to tell each other quick little things like food is ready or someone needs water. So far I haven't had any problems with the range. Everywhere we have used them, the range has worked and they have come in clear. I would say the range is good because I have had someone talk through them that was not me or my husband. If you are looking for a fun quick way to tell people in your family things (without them having to pick up their phone), I would recommend getting these!

For the low price, these do the job well for allowing us to communicate around our large home and grounds. My only complaint is that they drain batteries quickly, so if you want to use them regularly, you'll need to have a good supply of disposable batteries on hand.

Just can't beat the price. Works better than I expected.

These have been great for our family! We have 5 acres, and we use these to communicate with our children when they’re outside. The sound is clear, and the volume is easy to adjust. They make it so much easier to keep in touch without everyone needing a phone. The batteries also last a long time, which has been a huge plus. And our kids have dropped these more times than I can count 😂, and they still work like they’re brand new. They’ve held up extremely well and have been a great way for our family to stay connected around the property.

After a short use, they transmitted sound without pressing the button making things noisy and confusing.

We moved from Interior Alaska to the southeast of the Lowe 48 and drove 2 vehicles. There is no cell phone reception between towns. These fit the bill perfectly. My wife and I used them for 13 days and I changed the batteries in them just once. We still used them when we had cell phone reception because they are so much more convenient and faster to use. We keep them in our vehicles now for when we are both driving to the same place on road trips.

No charging cable or batteries included....wasn't until it arrived did i realize the battery problem but the worst is the lack of charging cable, it advertises in the included booklet that there's a charging port which is clearly visable from the top but i have no idea what cable to even get, and even if i did get one there's no cover to protect the port that's directly on top of the walkie, so it's probably not very durable if you use these outdoors where rain or whatever can get in there. So I just ordered some rechargeable AAA batteries as that's what it takes and will just recharge the batteries without the walkie port...This thing better be reliable after all the hassle, because unless you carefully read the entire product page it's easy to miss that it doesn't come with anything and i need something like this for work, but if i knew i'd have to buy additional stuff i'd have never gotten this specific one Edit: going to have to return it after all the headaches and having to get extra rechargeable batteries because it doesn't even work with the radios everyone else is using at my work. The frequency on the privacy ctcss/dcs channel doesn't match up to any of the 1-99 options when the default is D243I on the radios we use so double check that this will even work for you if you're buying them for somewhere that already uses radios
