Motorola Talkabout T5422 8-channel PMR

These Walkie-talkies are a amazing invention of the 21st century. A free way to communicate is a great advantage for all buisnesses needing communication in a short distance.
At a reasonable price for 2 recievers (about £50), you will be able to save a small fortune on short calls between employees and other members of staff at which ever business you are working/supervising.
Having 8 channels is great as you can have many walkies operating on different frequencies, i.e 1/2 stockroom, 3/4 office, 5/6 staff room,7/8 shop floor.
Having not being able to test the full capability of the distance of these walkie talkies, i can only say that they reach a distance of 1mile with no problems what-so-ever.
Having being dropped many a time at where i work, it has not effected the working quality of these walkies and they continue to work to a high standard. The rubbery outershell helps the ruggedness of the product last for a longer period of time compared to other walkie-talkies.
The battery life seems to last for ages. For a few hours charge, the walkie talkie lasts for over 12 hours, which is perfect for the working hours of 9am-8pm in most shop opening/closing times.
Working for a store that sells these products (Blacks) they are available at ease, but i have not seen these specific walkie talkies elsewhere, so i am not sure where else you could purchase them.
The walkie fits straight into your right hand, and with your index finger falling straight on the button needed to be held down for communictaions to be made. Quite a large speaker on the front of the walkie-talkie help the sound quality be top class. One unfortunate problem is that the product is quite weighty, but a handy clip allows you to quite handily put the weight of the product on your belt, rather than weighing down your pocket.
