i-Rocks IR-1100 FM Transmitter Review

Order was received lightning fast. The I-Rocks MP3 transmitter connects to the car lighter socket. It has variable frequencies that you can tune your FM radio to that are indicated by the combination of 4 LED's Ranging from 88.1 to 107.9 Mhz.

It came with a side USB and top USB connector. The top unit you plug the USB flash card (memory stick). It has an audio plug next to it for MP3 players, I-Pods etc.

One lead has a USB plug and clip on the end. This is not explained in the documentation but is needed if the radio antenna of your car is at the back away from the player. You need to plug it into the side USB socket and it acts as a booster aerial. If not used the sound quality is very poor. If your radio antenna is at the front you don't need to use it.

The sound quality is very good.

One bad point if you use a large flash drive to store your songs( 1 gig will hold 200 to 300 songs) every time you stop and start the car the songs restart from the beginning. You can only skip forward and back one song per press it does not have a random or remember last played song feature. If you use an MP3 player the player itself will do the sorting.

It really is simple and easy to use.
