Delivery is charged per product because each item ships directly from its supplier, so items can arrive separately. Estimated delivery 7-15 working days. Tracked.
A pair of small rechargeable walkie talkies whose listing describes them as PMR 446 licence-free. They need no mobile signal, so you can keep in touch with someone in the same house, street or field, with voice activation and a USB charging dock or cable.
PMR446 radios are legal to use in the UK without a licence, but the power limit is 0.5W and range is usually a few hundred metres in built-up areas. The listing also mentions FRS 462, which is not a UK-legal frequency, so we must only sell the PMR446 version.
Key features
- Licence-free PMR446 (EU/UK version)
- Pack of 2 radios
- VOX hands-free
- USB rechargeable
- Small and light
- Works without mobile signal
How to use it
Charge both radios, switch them on, set them to the same channel and press to talk.
- Charge both radios using the USB dock or cable until full.
- Switch both on, and set both to the same channel.
- Hold the radio and press and hold the talk button, then speak clearly.
- Release the button to listen for the reply.
- Or switch on VOX so the radio sends when you speak.
- Switch both off after use and recharge them.
Tips
- Range is usually a few hundred metres, and buildings and terrain reduce it.
- Agree a channel and a check-in time with the other person before you separate.
Safety and limits
- Only use radios sold as PMR446; the listing mentions FRS 462, which is not legal in the UK.
- Do not cover them while charging, keep them dry and away from heat, and stop using them if the battery swells or is damaged.
Please note
- Lithium battery: ships by surface/regular courier only
- Sell only the PMR446 version; FRS 462 frequencies are not legal in the UK
- Range is usually a few hundred metres, much less in buildings
- Not for emergency services contact; call 999 on a phone
