iLuv I701 Digital FM Radio Transmitter (White) Review

iLuv I701 Digital FM Radio Transmitter (White)
Average Reviews:

iLuv is relatively small and thin. Easy to carry around, will fit almost anywhere. Uses standard 3.5mm stereo audio connector. It is in no way iPod specific. I guess it has "i" in the name because every cool device these days has "i" in the name. You can use iLuv with anything. Laptops, MP3 players, Walkmans, CD players, anything standard. And with iPod too. Of course, if your device has non-standard connector (most mobile phones for example) you are out of luck.
It uses AAA batteries, which is not really a good thing. However, given that device is too thin for AA batteries, I'm not going to hold it against it. BTW, may I suggest rechargeables to everybody who bitches about price of AAA batteries. There is a 3V connector on it, so you don't need batteries if you have 12V to 3V adapter for car. I just got iLuv today, so can't really comment on battery life. It's been turned on for the whole afternoon with used batteries (that I pulled out of my old FM transmitter), and it still works.
It covers the full FM frequency range in 0.1 MHz increments. You can set it to virtually any unused FM slot. As far as I can tell, it stays at the dialed frequency and doesn't "pollute" reception of nearby stations (translated, your neighbors will not hate you). However, the range is very limited. You probably want to keep it no more than 10 feet or so from the antenna of your radio. If you are looking into buying it for use in car, this is not a problem. Tested. I placed it at the worst position in car, furthers away from antenna, and the sound quality was still good. If you want to transmit to the room on the other end of a house, you'll be very disappointed. It simply doesn't have enough juice for that.
There's some audible white noise when there's no input signal, but not any worse than some other devices I had in my hands. Don't expect miracles from something in this price range. If you'll be using it in a car (use most folks are buying this devices for), don't worry about it at all. Even if you have very quiet car, you won't notice this at all. On the other hand, if you are audio perfectionist, you'll probably have to spend much more money for something better.
Conclusion. iLuv is no worse then what I read in reviews for most other FM transmitters. It is way better then my old Radio Shack branded one.

Kensington 33169 Digital FM Radio and Transmitter for iPods Review

Kensington 33169 Digital FM Radio and Transmitter for iPods

This unit does both: receives FM as a radio, and transmits FM to your radio. Just purchased this yesterday, so I don't have good numbers on how long it takes to drain the iPod's battery. I do know that you can get a solid 4 hours at least. This unit does a fantastic job of transmitting my iPod selections to my FM stereo radio. I can take the iPod 30 metres away, around the house, and the music continues without interruption. I've heard that some of the FM transmitter systems didn't have much of a range, and was pleasantly surprised to find that this one is quite good.
For FM reception - you stick your headphones into the unit itself, rather than into the iPod's headphone jack - so I presume that it is just using the iPod as a power source rather than anything particularly intelligent.
Not needing to buy two different units seems like a good idea to me.
The one downside is that there is no way to charge the iPod while the Kensington unit is connected, whereas some of the FM transmitter-only systems can be plugged into car power supplies.

It does not work with the Ipod Touch with the wireless adapter (as both "holes are on the same side, the plug and the usb) and also it is not charger as they say, only a transmitter.. Do not waste your money on it It does not worth it!! too expensive for the use.

Play your favorite iPod playlists through your car's stereo speakers while simultaneously powering and controlling the device with this combination remote control and FM transmitter/charger combo pack. The FM transmitter is easy to use: simply find an empty frequency on your FM dial--meaning a frequency that gets no reception--then tune the transmitter to the same channel. The music will then play through the selected station, negating the need for a cassette deck adapter, auxiliary input, or other wired music transfer device. The remote control, meanwhile, features a RF receiver that plugs into your iPod's dock connector, where it passes on such commands as play, forward and reverse, shuffle, or select playlist. The range is an impressive 150 feet, making it a handy tool for controlling your iPod in the home as well as the car. The receiver also offers pass-through functionality for connecting a charger or integrating a Bluetooth device.Finally, the unit's charger (integrated within the FM transmitter)

Aerielle i2i Wireless Digital Audio Device for iPod and MP3 Players (Black) Review

This product is useful to listen to streaming audio off the computer but the batteries are UNREPLACEABLE and only lasted 1 year with moderate use. The only option is to buy new ones when the batteries quit on you, what kind of a music device is that, RIDICULOUS and disingenuous, I emailed the company before I bought them and was told don't worry they'll last years, well they didn't. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, I learn the first time and I will not replace them.

XtremeMac AirPlay FM Transmitter for iPod and iPod Mini Review

I bought this unit after trying the Itrip by Griffen Technologies which I found to be unsatisfactory. This unit does the job. In my car and on my boat, the Airplay works very well, even here in Southern California where there really aren't any completely clear FM frequencies. The Airplay seems to have much more power than at least two other FM transmitters I have tried, which enable it to function very well.
Setting up the Airplay is simplicity itself; one simply plugs it into the top of the Ipod and dial in the desired FM frequency. No software to deal with. Make sure that the volume control of the Ipod is at about 60-70%--this is the only critical setting. The Airplay has greatly enhanced my enjoyment of the Ipod by enabling me to use the Ipod anywhere I have an FM radio, thereby letting me use the nice speaker systems in my boat and car. Great! One day, of course, car and marine stereos will have Ipod docks. But until that happy day, the Airplay will be there for us.
