Veho Digital FM Transmitter (VFM-002),
By
This review is from: Fm Transmitter For Ipod mp3
Using for transmitting my MP3 player music through car speakers.
Easy to setup - Instructions are a bit brief though. Found I had to turn volume control on my MP3 player to max. to get good sound. This isn't a problem and anyway once done sound can be managed using car stereo volume controls. Comes with Cigarette Lighter power lead. Good sound quality - Excellent value product.

Not great, especially in built up areas,

This review is from: Fm Transmitter For Ipod mp3
Had this radio transmitter for about a month now, use it a few times a week, and in a range of environments.
Ok, the good - If you're like me and your car doesn't have a port to enable you to plug in an mp3 player directly, and your car isn't worth paying to install a new radio, then this provides a useful solution as all you need is a radio in your can (you don't even need a cigarette lighter, as it can run off batteries). On the other hand, the device often gets large amounts of interference from other radio stations etc; so as you are driving it might suddenly cut from your mp3 to the local radio station. This isn't too much of a problem if you have a passenger who can re tune the transmitter and your radio, but if you drive alone you have to wait until you can stop before fiddling around with both the transmitter and radio. I find the interference is at its worst in built up areas, and barely a problem in rural areas and motorways. The quality is also not great - i find the device doesn't transmit bass very well, and there is a constant hiss in the background - i have found the only way to combat this is to turn my mp3 player down and the radio right up. Finally, the most annoying element - if i charge my mp3 player through the transmitter, by plugging its usb into the transmitter, and then the transmitter into the car cigarette lighter - the transmitter makes a heartbeat style noise, continuously, and loudly, no matter what the volume of music is, and even if the music is playing or not. Which means you cant actually use this feature if you want to hear the music. Obviously this is just my opinion on my device - i might have a faulty one, but i cant be bother to get a replacement. I have no choice but to use this device as it isnt worth replacing the radio on my car, but as a music enthusiast, its a let down and not recommended unless you dont have any other options! [EDIT - 3 MONTHS LATER] Device stopped working entirely, when I turned it on it would switch itself off again after a few seconds (not due to low batteries or anything obvious). So the device is now useless and a total waste of money. I ended up getting a cassette to mp3 adaptor which is easier, doesnt require batteries and has much much much better sound quality. Ditch this waste of money.

Works well, with a few limitations,

Why do these gadgets always look like this?
Okay, that's not fair. If you want one for an iPod, you can find cute little devices that plug in neatly and don't require vast amounts of spaghetti. But for any other MP3 player (mine's a Creative device and I don't WANT Apple, thanks) most of the FM transmitters seem to be a variation on this theme: oval, audio wire wrapped once round its circumference. The USB socket's a useful touch if you want to use it in the house and own a plug in USB charger... What do you need to know before you start? First, the cable that runs from the transmitter to the headphone socket of your MP3 player is too short. Consider: you're probably in the car. You won't be running the transmitter from batteries because, supplied with it, you have a power cable that allows you to run it from the car's lighter socket. That cable might be okay for you, but, in my case, it's too short to put the transmitter anywhere that might be secure, accessible and a reasonable distance from the bits of the car that generate radio interference. (The attribute I chose to sacrifice was accessibility: I bought an extension for the lighter socket but it generates its own RF interference so that experiment was shelved.) So your transmitter is somewhere it won't fall from while the car's in motion. Great. But the wire that runs from the transmitter to your MP3 player is probably now far too short for you to be able to reach the player to hit <next> on it when it plays something you'd rather not listen to right now, so you need an extension cable for that bit. (Standard 3.5mm socket to plug cable, nothing too clever or expensive, couple of quid will probably do it, just get a reasonable length and use a cable tie to shorten it if it's too long and gets itself wound round the gearstick at inappropriate times.) The transmitter can be set to transmit at a vast variety of FM frequencies. Pick one that's a reasonable distance from anything that anyone else is using: it's a mistake to try to compete with Radio 1, however much you might want to. I use 106.3, but you will probably have to experiment. Tune your radio to the same frequency and, once you've found one that works and if you have the option, store it to a preset. You will probably have to turn the volume on your MP3 up to full. It'll seem to work with less, but the transmitter will switch itself off after it hasn't been used for a while and if your volume setting is too low, the transmitter will think you're not using it. And halfway through bellowing along to your favourite Eminem diatribe, you'll realise your backing vocalist has gone away. Trust me on this one, it's a mistake. Once you've dealt with these little practical/ergonomic issues, you'll be fine -- and the transmitter does a good and effective job.
