![]() And at least on my unit, the power switch is not great. The button is easier to press when powering on or off than the FMT4, so I often switch channels accidentally. The picture doesn't show the cable, but it's the same as the FMT4. (I thought that would be convenient for my use case in the car, but it drains the batteries when in standby, so it's not really that helpful.) This model has an auto power mode, which turns to standby after a few minutes of no audio, and turns on when the audio resumes. Since it's battery driven, this device avoids the hum like previous plug-in transmitters in my car when charging my phone at the same time as listening to audio (the reason I purchased my previous FMT4).Ĭontrary to what the manufacturer told me, this FMT5 differs a bit from the FMT4 (other than cosmetically). The audio quality is decent but not audiophile level, and the device isn't strong enough to avoid radio interference altogether, even on an empty channel. But, the manufacturer (Korea) should be more fair, to their American customers. Of course on the available frequencies 7 watts would cause big trouble, so it's still a bargain of a deal at the trickle milli-wattage. My one dislike is the price - I paid a little over 16 bucks for this, & I feel like for a price like that we should get around 7 watts of broadcasting power, not this tiny little petite 10 foot 100 milliwatt! I'm not sure about battery life, I'm about to find out, but I am purchasing the Lenink AAA battery power supply adapter, for about 10 bucks, so I won't have to worry with batteries for it. ![]() The sound is so clear, & I can use my stereo's EQ & bass boost to take my laptop's sound anywhere from crisp & clear to a fuzzy smooth deep boss bass! Now it doesn't sound like a measly, little, outdated laptop anymore! I'm using this at home, so I can put my computer's sound over my home stereo system. Just what I needed - the FMT4 is perfect for me!
