Cheap Makita BMR100W 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless FM/AM Job Site Radio


I purchased this radio a few months ago and have been pleased with it. I wanted a portable radio that I could connect with my iPod and could use with Mikita 18 Volt batteries, for listening to audio books, either at the job site, or on the road. This radio fits the bill.
Its pluses: The antenna is easy to remove (antennae always break). Comes in a well protected case that opens up so you can store accessories. Has 10 presets, alarm, easy tuning knob, long run time on a fully charged 18 volt battery.
Its flaws: If you want a super loud radio/boombox this isn't the one. The sound is good, but it doesn't have a treble/bass adjustment. If you're using a 18 volt battery you have to plug your iPod in the front. AC adapter is big and bulky. If you need to buy a 18 volt battery, they cost almost as much as the radio.
Overall this is a nice radio with a rugged design, some cool features, and is reasonably price. It has it's limits, and it's not for everyone.Get more detail about Makita BMR100W 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless FM/AM Job Site Radio.
