DEWLT DXFRS800 2W 22 Channels Two-Way Radios, 2pk

We leave in a farm close to the ocean (1.5 mile), so we have tough conditions. All units are used every other day to allow charging. Likes: Good range, crisp & clarity sound. It is a strong product if the intention is not for heavy duty Dislike: $$$, but again nothing to compare to at this price range. After buying 6 of these radios (different times) since 2018, I can summarized my experience saying that if this is the top imagine the rest (we used Motorola as well, even worse). The plastic on / off button come off easily after a couple months (careful). It comes with a horrible swivel holder (belt clip) design which soon will break but regardless if it doesn't, it will let the radio come off when you have to run or actively move. In addition, it cannot be charged with the belt clip on. The chargers work fine for a short while thereafter, it's a pain to charge a radio. for some reason the contacts at the charger stop working properly so you will have to play every time with each radio moving it very slow and carefully until eventually a connection is stablished to start charging. Regardless of the charger, we cannot charge more that one walkie talkie at a time in the same double charger. As manufacturing defect, the battery cover in the back comes with 3 screws which are not rust protected so expect these screws get totally rusted quite soon. The real problem it's that these screws fit in a metal female bolt inserted, glued in the body (plastic) of the unit which eventually will break the case so the battery cover will be lose allowing moist & debris inside so there it goes its water resistant. The batteries itself are already going down in its performance after few months (4 approx.). The charging cicle went down significantly so each unit need to stay charging for more than 4 hours. Good luck trying to find batteries replacements, I haven't been able to locate them. The antena breaks quite easy so after the holder is broken don't put the unit in your back pocket or any pocket, antena gone.
