Scosche FMT7-SP1 Tune-Tone FM Stereo Transmitter with Built-in 3.5mm AUX Cable

Pros: • Cheaper than every other FM transmitter I've seen so far (I paid $8, while most of the others on Amazon are about $15), despite being by a major name brand • Audio is true stereo • Supports a decent range of transmission frequencies (a total of 20 frequencies, 10 on the lower range of 88.1 to 90.9 and 10 on the higher range of 106.1 to 107.9) • Great battery life (estimate of at least 14 hours) from well-used 6 year old EBL (cheap Chinese brand) rechargeable NiMH 1100 mAh batteries • Won't drain your car battery, as is evidently the case with many FM transmitters that plug into the 12 volt cigarette lighters (supposedly only if you leave them plugged in and they don't have an automatic shutoff feature, but it was a big enough concern for me that finding a battery powered FM transmitter was a major selling point) • Even with the lower voltage of NiMH rechargeable batteries (1.25 volts) compared to regular traditional alkaline batteries (1.5 volts), I've found interference to be rare and only occurring in specific areas, and while it is much quieter than most radio stations, I'm usually only at 50% of my car stereo receivers max volume. Just remember that when you shut off the FM transmitter, you'll get loud static or interference, and if you accidentally change the station on your car stereo receiver, the other stations will be probably *very* loud in comparison to your FM transmitter (at least if you're using rechargeable batteries, or if your batteries are low on power). Cons: • AAA batteries are used. While they're smaller, they're less common and they hold less charge than AA batteries. Alkaline AA batteries hold about 3 times of charge alkaline AAA batteries do, while NiMH rechargeable AA batteries hold about 2 times of what NiMH AAA batteries do. But, this FM transmitter seems to work well and long (at least 14 hours of playback time) with just two well-used 1100 mAh batteries that are over 6 years old at this point. Use the website Radio-Locator to find unused frequencies in your area to avoid interference. I'm using this connected to a Yoton MP3 player, with the FM transmitter's audio cable holding both up onto the phone holder connected to my car's vent. It's somewhat of a janky solution, but it allows me to control the MP3 player and turn the MP3 player and FM transmitter on while having close access to the car stereo receiver's volume controls.

Scosche FMT7 - SP1 is exactly what I was looking for. I purchased a Vintage 1960 Telefunken 5161W tube table radio. It’s working like new and is beautiful to look at. My original idea was to add Bluetooth to the existing electronics which I want reversible to keep this original. Since FM band sounds great enter the Scosche FMT7, after experimenting with frequencies and plugging into an old iPod Touch. This transmitter is absolutely perfect! The sound is clear and distortion free. Thank you

I've tried a couple of these for my 'beater' car because I do not want to invest the time/money into an aftermarket radio. This unit works the best out of the 3 that I tried. I wish it were rechargeable but 2 AAA batteries is not horrible (& available everywhere).

This actually works. I've tried many other FM transmitters over the years and this one is a keeper. Time will tell, but most other models burn out after about a year because the battery won't hold a charge. This one requires separate batteries; is that a genius move or just common sense? I use rechargeable batteries and do the recharging in my house. After I bought this item, I thought I'd like to buy one for my wife, but to my surprise Amazon says it is no longer available. Are they conspiring to make us use more expensive and more breakable products? P.S. The sound is so much clearer than any other transmitter that I've used, so I'm not sure why some people might say the sound has static.

This transmitter works well and allows you to play music from you phone to any radio receiver. Just select the frequency on the device to use for transmission (there are several you can select among) and then turn your radio to that frequency. Obviously, it would be good to check the radio first for an open frequency, one in which you hear static but no competing station. It seems to me that this device has a working range of about 20 feet to maintain a clear signal, but that may vary quite a bit depending on the room and the radio used.

Great quality, gets quite annoying to change the batteries for it after some time. When it’s close to dying it starts annoyingly turn on and off until you manually turn it off. As batteries lose power, it gets quieter so I have to adjust the volume for it to be louder. Sound quality is great, for that price. Signal overall is super horrible, BUT if you mount it at the exact perfect point, personally it sounds nearly CD quality. I used double sided tape so it approximately points at antenna so noise from actual frequency doesn’t go through. Died on me due to a normal wear of 3.5mm jack after a year. Opted for a new one, if I don’t like new one might get another one.

hello from delaware😊 this item, FM xmitter, performs as described. good investment and no regrets on my purchase. 🤔😊😂

*Update - The replacement arrived, and it was having the same issue "not turning on" so I decided try and fix it. It turns out both springs that are supposed to push the AAA batteries against the metal contact are too short, quick fix I pulled both springs with a plier and the batteries did the contact. Now the item works just fine, still giving it one star, because this is something that is supposed to be done in it's factory production. This product doesn't want to turn on, I used some brand new batteries just in case but nothing seems to work, I'm giving it another try and will update my review according to the outcome.

There is always a static noise to the audio. Not worth the price. Dissatisfied

tratamos de poner a prueba la distancia. y obtuvimos retardos en señal a pesar de estar a menos de 2 metros.
