undefined review of RadioShack Analog AM/FM Weather Tabletop Radio image 1 out of 1

Eric J.

Wanted a radio for my shop, but portable, and not expensive. Found this one by Radio Shack and have had it for a week. Like it very much- excellent reception- simple controls- it picks up a lot of stations (more than I will listen to), and the sound quality is good, a problem with other radios. In addition it is attractive and has plug-in or battery power capability. I would definitely buy this again. EJohnson, Louisville, Tn

undefined review of OSEPP DC Barrel Jack Adapter for Portable Electronic Devices/Power Supply Connector - Female (2 pack) image 1 out of 1

Joseph F.

I got tired of replacing 9 volt batteries on my static grass applicator so I cut off the battery pad and attached the DC Barrel Jack Adapter. I now use a 12 vdc wall adaptor with a barrel plug.

undefined review of USA GEAR | Protective Hard Shell GPS Carrying Case for Garmin , Magellan , TomTom and More image 1 out of 1

Ryan D.

Very high quality case. The perfect size for hundreds of device protection applications despite being billed as a "GPS Unit" storage case. Currently I am using mine to hold my external hard drive which is loaded with family pictures and videos. The stitching, zippers, carry strap, outer shell, and inside lining and padding are high craftsmanship and exude confidence in the product. One side when opened has a nice tight mesh screen that is ideal for cords and cables and physical manuals of the pr...

undefined review of RadioShack 7.5A 250V Fast-Acting 1-1/4x1/4-Inch Glass Fuses (4-Pack) image 1 out of 1

Edward S.

I had a really hard time locating these fuses for my electric Igloo and I even went to Home Depot where the correct fuses was listed but none to be found. I then tried my best on the internet and there was my childhood standby Radi Shack Originally I thought RS was gone but I really needed the fuses for backup. The cost and shipping were small compared to not being prepared for the worst. 5 days later they arrived and will be now available if ever needed. Radio Shack delivered!!!!!!! Tha...

Received this free with my battery order. Love the batteries and love the shirt. As a Ham Radio operator, I frequently went to Radio Shack to buy electronic parts for my projects. Glad to see they are back!

undefined review of MyKronoz ZeTime Premium Smartwatch with Mechanical Hands and Touchscreen image 1 out of 1

Craig S.

I have typically been a WearOS watch guy, but have been really pleased with the performance and look of this watch. The real watch display adds a degree of elegance not found in other smartwatches. This allows for extreme battery life. I like how the hands get out of the way to read the texts. There are a few quirks you have to get used to if you have used other systems, but overall the price and quality are outstanding and unique and I look forward to this design to make it's way into other bra...

Ronald B.

This Radio is exactly what I was looking for. It's perfect for taking worth me and I can use batteries or plug it in. There is always an outlet available so that's my preference. Digital ruining with an antenna pole makes it easy to pick my station. I haven't used any of the time or clock .features though. Good sound as well

Timothy P.

This is a wonderful kit full of quality components starting with the Hero board! The narrative of the kit is just what I needed to stay excited and keep progressing. I bought this to get back into general tinkering and I love it. There are so many other things to do with it after doing the 30 day challenge, and more components to play with. I really like how much thought went into this.

This radio is everything you need in one! No batteries, 3 ways to charge, and weather! I've been waiting for this for a long time now, so happy to have it, thanks Radio Shack! It also pick up my favorite station which is no easy feat for an average radio. Sound quality is right there too 🙂

David M.

I really like this "30 Days Lost in Space" experimenter's kit. The internet instruction program is very well done, and makes learning C++ programming fun & intuitive. The experiments are varied & well thought out, and all parts to complete them are included in a plastic box. I'm a senior citizen retired from the electroncs industry, and am excited to learn another aspect of electroncs & programming. I highly recommend the product!!!

Simple to install and works great! I’m planning to order two more for my other properties. I’m getting twice the channels now and they are clearer than before. Thank you radio shack!

I use these Adaptaplugs with 9 and 12 volt wall adaptors. Radio Shack seems to be the only company that fills this niche for wall adapters. I am glad they still do and am glad they are still in business.

I bought this little weather station to monitor the barometric pressure. It is perfect for my needs! (Flying) It works great, responds quickly, has clear and easy instructions (rare) and was an amazing bargain.

Wes N.

This is everything I hoped for and more! I can't wait to order cassettes to make a mix tape. LoL. Bluetooth connected immediately. It can get loud! My only negative is it needs actual batteries instead of being rechargeable.

Hope W.

I've been dreaming of finding a vintage boombox for years. I have multiple old cassettes lying around the apartment with absolutely no way to play them. In addition, I'm absolutely obsessed with '80s aesthetics and styles. So when an advertisement popped up in my Instagram newsfeed for a retro-esque cassette player, I had to go for it. And I got even more than I bargained for - I was in such a hurry to order that I didn't even realize the radio came with Bluetooth capability, or the ability to r...

Love my QFX shoebox cassette recorder/player! It’s a modern take on a vintage item and the sound quality is incredible! So far, it seems like a heavy duty device and I love the handle for easy toting.

John L.

Behold my new Alter of Worship! I bought this beast at Radioshack. It cranks out 20 amps pure juice at 13.8 volts direct current. Like most expensive and quality made electric devices, it heavier than the woman who sings at the Opera. My new toy has enough power to process death row inmates two at a time!

It is difficult to find a hat which actually fits my head. This looks like a classic, is made of high quality materials, fits comfortably, and am so happy with it😏

undefined review of Lexon Flip+ Travel Mini Reversible Travel Alarm Clock image 1 out of 1

Michael S.

This is a handy and small travel alarm clock that does everything needed for a good price. The flip feature is unique and simple but effective. Just flip the clock to turn the alarm on or off. The night light feature is also useful and it stays on a short time which works. Also, there is a "lock" feature so you can shut the alarm down while travelling. This is a well-thought out product that will fit anywhere when travelling - or just use it at home.

undefined review of ION ICD08 Air CD Pro Compact Music System with Bluetooth image 1 out of 1

Richard M.

I’ve read the reviews on several sites and most of them were pretty nice. One must keep in mind that the full retail price is only $89! Many a time Radio Shack offers additional coupons and I managed to pick mine up for even less! You would be hard pressed to find an AM/FM Bluetooth CD player of this quality at this price. When I picked up the box I was shocked at how heavy the unit was. The handsome would cabinet was finished with a beautiful stainless steel face. This was very reminiscent of ...

I ordered 4 men's and one woman's watch as a surprise for the family around the holidays. They were a hit! They were amazingly easy to set up and they have a ton of functions available while leaving your cell phone in your pocket or purse. One watch had a manufactures defect and was replaced immediately with no hassles. Great customer service from a trusted retailer. Thanks RadioShack!

Ramon R.

It did take a lot longer than expected for item to be shipped. That was disappointing. But once I received it, I was very glad to have waited. It was worth it!!! Great little Boom Box to have or give as a gift. Definitely 70’s 80’s style, especially with the FM antenna!!!

John E.

This is much better than expected. This is the first Sangean product for me and it lives up to the reputation. Just got it and so far the FM reception is outstanding. The bluetooth was easy to setup and the sound is quite rich and clear. For the price this is a bargain and it's very attractive as well. Works in the office like butter.

David S.

Finding the best deal on a Uniden portable scanner can be hard to find. RadioShack is the only place I thought of from my youth. When I purchased my first Uniden scanner was a base scanner and it worked perfectly. So when that couldn't work. I decided to switch to a portable scanner. So when I checked RadioShack of course I found a deal. The price, size and the quality was what I was looking for. Placing my order and payment was not a problem. Thanks to the quick checkout and shipping. It wa...

Good desktop radio with very good sound. I like the tuning mechanism/light to help get the best signal. The external antenna option works really well in our area as well. I’m listening to stations I could get before.

The GM 10067986 Ambient Light Sensor (blue plastic) shown in the photo has been discontinued, and is now Unobtainium. But all you need is one of these Radio Shack photocells to replace the old one in the blue plastic housing, and the headlights will switch on and off automatically again.

Soldering iron far exceeds my expectations. Absolutely a great tool. A must have for anyone interested in soldering electronics. I really expected a battery operated soldering iron to be just for use in rare occasions, but this Iron is great and can be used on anything. I am very impressed.

Ira G.

I listen to my radio for 17 hours a day. I Work 8 hours with my radio on and sleep at night I have the radio on as white noise to help me sleep. The batteries last almost 14 days before needing to be replaced. Other batteries last less than a week. Very impressed with the power and how long lasting they are.

Shirley C.

Love this simple radio, without fancy features that you need to read a user manual to operate. Just turn it on, and out comes my favorite classical music. The display is big and clear, the reception is great, the sound is not bad either. I also use it as an amplifier when streaming with cell phone. Nowadays the phone volume will go down automatically when you plug in an earpiece, even though I am connecting it to a room music system. That totally ruined the music. So I first plug my phone ...

David W.

As you can see I still have the original pair I purchased three years ago through Amazon. I needed another pair in case this one stops working so I bought another pair straight from Radio Shack, so far it has not and I use it on a daily basis to work around the yard. I have purchased other headphones like the 3M from Home Depot none of these compare to this radio, this AM/FM radio headset is the best product on the market for under $60.

undefined review of Build Your Own Half-Watt Audio Amplifier Electronics Kit image 1 out of 1

Gerald P.

I have a lot of experience building kits and homebrewing in general. For me was this an easy project. But don't be put off by that statement. Less-experienced individuals and even first-timers should have little or no difficulty assembling this kit. The quality of the board is excellent and the layout is uncluttered. The heart of the circuit is an inexpensive low-voltage amplifier audio chip, the NJM2113D. Although unnecessary, I used a socket for the chip, allowing easy replacement shoul...

Neat little kit to start learning about coding and physical circuits. Now, the 220 ohm resistors are all 100 and the three way switch makes poor connecting with the board but other than that, no issues and we can still use the simulator to verify logic!

Waiting until Christmas to do anything with these because my plan is to give one as a gift to my wife and then we will each start our "training" at the same time and simultaneously when we use them, to compare notes and help each other. I suppose we could make it a competition, but it would seem more in harmony with the spirit of the "lost in space" name, to assist, consult with and help each other.

Luis R.

This thing is so cool. It works wonderfully, as I'd hoped. It's nice and loud, plays my old cassettes, which makes me very happy. The short wave bands is an added plus, as I was going to buy a separate radio for that and now I don't have to. Some thing I didn't realize before I bought it is that you can record your cassettes to MP3 if you want. Fantastic! Very happy with my purchase.

I love that it's got the classic watch with a smart watch included. I hate regular smart watches I want to be able to look down and see what time it is without having to hit a button and the classic design with the hands do that.

This is a course I wish I had taken years ago! Finally, I have an opportunity to learn the basics of coding and get to see what it is all about. The course is mostly video, so you get to see firsthand what to do and how to do it instead of trying to follow text instructions. There is also a Facebook group to go to if you get stuck and need some good people to help. The fun factor and pride of making your own circuits operate is through the roof! I am so excited I was able to be a part of this...
