Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Griffin iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for iPod (Black)

Customer Review: Good deal, but some quirks
Summary: 4 Stars

At $18, this is a great value, which skews the review a bit, because I have some nagging issues with this. The power saving feature is annoying because it means I hear (loud) static on my radio when I stop playing my iPod. This occurs occasionally as one podcast ends before I can start the next or if I just want a break. Also annoying is the fact that it does not remember the last frequency used on startup; it goes to some random channel and then I have to tune it in again to what I need it to be. I also wish the cord were 6-10 inches longer.

On the good side, it broadcasts sound well, especially on 87.9FM. The construction seems durable and is easy to transport between cars. Again, this was a steal at $18, so I ranked this a four despite my nags with it.

Description of Griffin iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for iPod (Black)

The first FM transmitter made specifically for the iPod; iTrip lets you play music from your iPod through any FM radio. iTrip needs no batteries. A must for any iPod owner. Convenient one-piece transmitter and charger.
The Griffin 9501-TRIPCB iTrip Auto FM Transmitter and Auto Charger for iPod combines Griffin's renowned FM transmitter technology with an integrated charger. Designed specifically for use in the car, the iTrip Auto powerfully transmits clear music from your iPod through your car stereo, while the large, easy-to-read backlit LCD screen affords quick, precise station selection and status at a glance.

The Griffin 9501-TRIPCB is the most versatile iTrip to date, accommodating every dock connector iPod, including the iPod Nano and 5th-generation iPods videos. The iTrip Auto uses the audio line out from the iPod's dock connector and optimizes the output volume, allowing speaker volume to be controlled solely from the car stereo controls, without having to adjust the iPod's volume level. This unit features all the innovations of its predecessors, including selectable LX and DX modes for best-quality audio under real-world conditions, best-possible RF technology, and Griffin's world-class industrial design.

The Griffin iTrip Auto is constructed with a built-in FM stereo antenna and a high-stability crystal oscillator with phase-lock loop control. This unit can operate anywhere from the 88.1 to 107.9 MHz frequencies, with a frequency response ranging from 50 Hz to 15 KHz, at a range from 10 to 30 feet. The 9501-TRIPCB is powered by an included 12-volt cigarette lighter power adapter that features an easily replaceable fuse through which it also charges your iPod. This unit comes in black, weighs 0.6 ounces, measures 0.49 x 2.84 inches (W x D) with a total length of 33.47 inches including the cord, and it's backed by a manufacturer's limited 1-year warranty.
