Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I ordered it, since I needed a cheap voice scrambler to use for an epic game of HvZ, in which we have walkie talkies and I wanted to disorient the players. It seemed to be just the thing. I got it in 2 days, that's a 5 star review in my book.
When I recieved this, I couldn't get it to work. I thought that, since the battery was shipped inside it, it was just dead. I was annoyed, but decided to buy a 23A battery while I was out. That would drop it from 5 to 3.5 stars right there.
Upon inserting the new battery, I was annoyed to find that it still didn't work. Tried flipping the battery around, pulling the trigger harder, switching modes, etc. No effect: 2 stars.
I decided to try and open it up, since it's too small and cheap an item to bother with returning, to see if any obvious wires were disconnected or anything. There was a short circuit, and a silicon piece meant to attach to the speaker which was disconnected. I tried to see where everything went, but couldn't get anything to work. I might not be an electronic engineer, but I can usually fix things like this. Not in this case; it was pretty much broken. If I could give a 0 star rating at this point, I would. The only plus side is that the 23A battery contains 8 button cells which I can hold on to, but the actual product never worked.
I don't blame the seller, except for the fact that they sold me a piece of crap; I blame shoddy manufacturing. Returning it wouldn't be worth the 8 bucks or the time, I need it too soon to bother anyway. And once I opened it, it can't be returned.
Seldom have I been so thoroughly screwed by any product. The manufacturer ought to be beaten with a wooden spoon. If you're looking for a decent toy, try spending around 15$ for a slightly better product. At least I only lost like 8$.
