EXPIRED - Belkin TuneCast II Mobile FM Transmitter - £2.93 @ The Hut (£2.88 w/ Quidco)


£2.93

333°

FOUND BY: idbirch 3 weeks, 2 days ago

STARTS: 02/11/2009   

Bought one of these myself a few months ago for £5 and thought that was a bargain, this is the lowest I've seen it. As with any FM transmitter, bass reproduction is not great but at this price, you can't complain! Don't forget to go through Quidco to save another 5p.

The Hut's blurb:
Now you can use your iPod, PDA, MP3, CD, cassette player, PC, or laptop to listen to your favorite tunes through any FM stereo receiver. The Belkin TuneCast II Mobile FM Transmitter wirelessly connects portable music players to your car or home stereo quickly and easily using FM radio waves. Just plug the TuneCast II into the headphone jack of your iPod, PDA,MP3, CD, or cassette player; or connect it to your PC or laptop computer. Tune your car stereo or receiver to any clear FM frequency, and enjoy your iPod music experience with more sound and fewer wires.

nice find just in time as I have finally loaded up my new iphone with music and needed something for the car. 2.93 worth a punt.

Dam just realised missed my big saving of 5p through quidco, no big deal seems that all my cashbacks through quidco never happen for me.

Great Find. Just Ordered one. Thanks.

I hope its not crackly on the radio. Tried one before and quality wasn't too good. But HEY you can't go wrong for £2.93.

I'm using a cassette adapter at the moment and it works brilliantly and sound quality is great however going wireless would be great.

Cheers !!!

Quality of these not that good. But, for the money, still a bargain. Audio quality and reception range is acceptable, but not great- expect drop out and crackles.

USB power supply packed in quite quickly and then the batteries kept falling out. Mine eventually stopped working after 4 months - but it only cost me £4.

Maybe mine was a duffer - couldn't be bothered to find out.

It also comes with a car charger when you don't want to use your batteries. Adds more value to this deal. No USB power supply mentioned here.

Anyway, sill a good find with FREE delivery. You can't ask for more..

Used one of these when I had a hire car for a week that only had a tape deck!

Just played MP3s from my phone and could also take calls through the car stereo too

Yes, the quality isn't that great but for the price...! Would probably work better for someone just driving around town as if you go over greater distances you're more likely to run into interference and will need to re-tune.

Ordered one as a stocking filler, thanks OP

I have one of this for ages and works brilliantly !
I have the Sony MD player which i fed through this and sound is great. For the sound quality.. try tuning up on the frequency which is less likely to be used (mine is tuned at 103.5) so that there is less chance of interference. Enjoy wireless music!

Paid something ridiculous for this because my winging sister wanted to listen to her iPod in the car....

Now I see it for £3? Me = fuming lol

To be honest though, not the best - Id rather spend a few thousand on a new car which has a docking station or USB connection then buy another one of these lol :P

Great - Ive been thinking of getting one of these for ages but the mixed reviews put me off. I suspect it depends very much on the position of your aerial and sensitivity of your radio.
At this price though its not the end of the world if its rubbish.
