Griffin iTrip FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for Sansa

It was fairly easy to set up, once we discovered the fuse was blown for the charger. After replacing that, it was so simple to set up and use. Getting many hours of use listening to audiobooks.

I originally bought this 3 years ago (at $80!) and it worked great for 2 years before it started to die. In order to get it to work, the wires needed to be held in certain positions, etc. I purchased this as a replacement and it worked just as wonderfully as it did the first time I ordered it years ago. My only complaint is that the older version used to let you go through every FM station and the new one doesn't go quite as low as my car radio. But for this price, the product is great.

This transmitter does a pretty good job. It is easy to use, but the quality of the sound of any transmitter depends on having a quiet spot on the radio dial. It keeps the mp3 player charged quite well, and can be used as a charger as well.

I previously owned an itrip for my ipod brand, now own a sansa fuze and this transmitter not only transmitts as well as the 40 dollar itrip but also charges the battery at the same time. It is corded, however I couldn't ever get any farther from the radio with the itrip so... I'm a happy camper at a 4th of the cost!

The product is fairly simple to use. I have no antenna in my car so that probably helps in terms of reception. The sound quality is adequate, although certain rages (high bass or high treble) can be a little staticy. All in all it allows me to listen to my tunes while commuting, and that's all I need. There is some weird quirk, though, where if you have it plugged in while turning on the car it causes the channel selected on the device to reset. I just unplug mine after turning off the car, so it's not a big deal.

If you are a serious audiophile, then you will probably want to spend money on a decent sound system and find another way to connect your mp3 player anyway, so don't bother buying this product.
