From the Manufacturer: The BaoFeng BF-888S is a compact hand held transceiver providing 2 watts in the frequency range of 400-480 MHz. You get up to 16 selectable memories (user-programmable). Other features include: selectable wide/narrow band, battery save function, VOX, DCS/CTCSS encode, and a built in flashlight.
My Experience: I bought these (Aset of 2) on Amazon for $25. i was looking for a solution to stay in contact with my family in areas with no cell phone reception (Jalama Beach Campground). I read a lot of reviews for different walkie talkies but these were the highest reviewed - a 4.2 out of 5 from on Amazon from about 1600 reviewers. These walkie talkies are great. We used them a few times now and never had any signal issues and the sound is very good for a product this inexpensive. For the price of these you can't go wrong. I have not tested the max range out but they easily work throughout a campground. If you are camping in an area with no cell service and want to be able to communicate with someone at a distance, then buy these. Or buy them for your kids, my boys love them!
