This is a pair of good, budget FRS radios.
I have used them up to a 1/4 mile in a
residential neighborhood, with some trees.
They sound very good and clear in that setting -
absolutely no static!

My only criticism is that the rechargeable Ni-MH batteries

plus side, they will take less time to recharge using the

This drive is excellent for travel storage. It is very small -
only a few times larger than a jump drive. It is very
rugged, and well protected from the elements - making
it great for the outdoors. I have the 1TB model, which
comes already formatted as exFAT and ready for use
for both Android and Windows. I am using it to store
a lot of movies in mp4 ranging in size from 3GB to 30GB.
I uploaded them through a USB 3.0 port on my tower.
The speed is good, as can be seen in the test results
below. The drive did get warm while putting almost
900GB onto the drive, but never exceeded 45deg C.
It did this big job without a hitch!

Will new ps4 pro consoles ever be back in stock? I worry that the fall debut of the new ps5 may spell the end of production for the ps4 pro.

I suspect that it needs to be initialized and then formatted - operations you can do from disk management. However, it could also be a bad cable. I had a similar experience with this refurbished drive.
