Amazon.com Product Description
The Cobra Li4900-2WXVP MicroTalk GMRS/FRS 2-Way Radios make it easy to stay in touch with someone, wherever you may go. This rugged pair of radios is an outdoorsman's best friend, with plenty of range, features, and power to make sure that you don't get separated from the rest of your party in any terrain.
The Li4900-2WXVP MicroTalk radios use the UHF/FM band for ultra-clear, long-distance reception with an extended range capability that reaches up to 18 miles, depending upon the terrain. These units feature an illuminated LCD display that is easily visible at a glance even at night, 10 separate call alerts to differentiate between incoming callers, and an on/off selectable roger-beep tone that indicates the completion of other transmissions so you know when it is ok to talk. These radios also feature an auto squelch with a selectable maximum range extender that overrides the auto squelch for longest-possible reception, a keystroke tone signal that confirms key activation, and a patented VibrAlert for silent incoming calls in noisy or all-quiet environments. Additionally, the Li4900-2WXVP radios include 10 NOAA channels for full coverage of all government operated NOAA weather broadcasts, a scan function to locate conversations in progress, and a 10-channel memory for programming favorite channels or channel/privacy code combinations for easy retrieval.
The Cobra Li4900-2WXVP radios provide seven GMRS/FRS, seven FRS and eight GMRS channels for a total of 22 channels, all of which are easily accessed via the front panel's push buttons. When combined with the units' 121 privacy codes, users have a choice of up to 2,662 sub-channels to ensure privacy. These radios are built with a unique circuit that automatically switches to battery-saver mode if there are no transmissions within 10 seconds, thereby extending the battery life, and let you choose between High and Low power settings (GMRS only) to either maximize range or further extend your battery life. What's more, they come with a belt clip to secure your radios while you are on the go, and include a key lock that eliminates accidental channel changes. For added convenience, these MicroTalk radios include a VOX function with five selectable levels of sensitivity, which will detect the user's voice and transmit without the need to press any buttons, freeing your hands for other tasks.
The Li4900-2WXVPs each run on a rechargeable, lithium-ion battery, and come with a two-port desktop charger that allows you to recharge the batteries in both radios at once. Each radio has a built-in speaker/microphone/charger jack that lets you not only recharge batteries while in the unit, but use earphone speaker/microphone combinations for hands-free operation. Constructed to be water resistant for improved outdoor reliability, the Cobra Li4900-2WXVP MicroTalk Radios weigh only 3.2 ounces (without batteries), measure 2 x 5.5 x 1.5 inches (W x H x D), and are backed by a manufacturer's one-year warranty.
What's in the Box
Two Li4900-2WXVP MicroTalk radios, two-port desktop charger, two rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, user's guide and warranty information.

A toy all 40 - 60 year old kids can enjoy.......2007-08-18
It's a four star rating for the simple reason that I have not yet come across a hand held GMRS/FRS radio that can cover even a third of the mileage they are rated for . . .
The GMRS channels require an FCC license on HI power, but their are plenty of low power options where no license is required.
During my research the maximum output power for GMRS is listed at 5 watts for many models on the market. Even at higher power settings, I have had difficulty getting units to work in a two mile area over open water in urban areas.
That being said, the LI4900 is compact, well made and very clear, when you are out and about playing with the other kids.
As I was paddling across the water in search of prey, another kayaker couldn't help but press the button on his radio to declare to the rest of the fleet that he had a "fish on".
It didn't take long for the other 42 to 63 year olds to start chattering back and forth like children playing Army in their backyards. "Over and out" . . ."Rodger" and "You call THAT a fish . . that is so small you couldn't use it for bait" wisecracks echoed across the bay for the better part of a half hour.
For outdoor-person gatherings of two or more, hand held radios keep the communication going and take the fun to a higher level.
This model Cobra radio is an excellent model for these purposes and the NoAA weather channels truly come in handy.
Just keep in mind, a waterproof pouch is needed to protect the product and it cannot deal with even simple submersion. This is the shortcoming of all of these types of radios in my opinion.
FRS/GMRS Radios -What you need to know.......2007-08-05
The Cobra LI 4900 is a great little radio with good output power for GMRS and a tiny size and a great price.
When looking at FRS/GMRS Radios radios ignore the marketing ploys that tell you the range of the radios (12 miles, 18 miles, 22 miles). All of the radios sold to the general public (except high end models- over $100 per individual radio) have the same power output rating- 1/2 a watt for FRS and 2 watts for GMRS. All other things being equal- every radio will have the excact same range. Why do you think that the more expensive the radio the farther a range the manufacturer says it has? Because they want you to THINK a more expensive radio has a farther range so you will buy the more expensive one. But they all have the same power output- meaning they will essentially have the same range. This is all a marketing PLOY to get you to buy a more expensive radio. A more expensive radio may have more features, but if the power output is the same the range will essentially be the same. You can look for the power output on the manufacturer's website, but I have researced this already- almost all models sold to the general public have 1/2 a watt for FRS and 2 watts for GMRS. With the power rating being the same the things that will affect range are antenna size, height of the transmitter, and terrain- usually things you will have little control over. So buy a radio that has the features and size you want and ignore the marketing ploys about the range.

Amazon.com Product Description
The Cobra PR170-2VP MicroTalk GMRS/FRS 2-Way Radios make it easy to stay in touch with someone, wherever you may go. This rugged pair of radios is an outdoorsman's best friend, with plenty of range, features, and power to make sure that you don't get separated from the rest of your party in any terrain.
The PR170-2VP MicroTalk radios use the UHF/FM band for ultra-clear, long-distance reception with an extended range capability that reaches up to eight miles, depending upon the terrain. These units feature an easy-to-view LCD display that provides the radio's status at a glance, an easily recognizable call alert that notifies you of an incoming call, and a confirmation roger-beep tone that indicates the completion of the other user's transmission so you know when it is ok to talk. These radios also feature an auto squelch that shuts off weak transmissions or unwanted noise due to terrain or range constraints, as well as a keystroke tone signal that confirms key activation.
The Cobra PR170-2VP radios provide seven GMRS/FRS, seven FRS and eight GMRS channels for a total of 22 channels, all of which are easily accessed via the front panel's push buttons.

Customer Reviews:
8 Miles? What a joke........2007-07-14
These radios are labeled as having an 8 mile distance "under ideal conditions", but what exactly is "ideal"? Do you have to be 8 miles apart in the middle of the ocean (NOTHING in the way)? We can't get these things to work for ONE mile, let alone 8.
I bought an extra set for my brother and his wife, and they have the same exact problem, so it's not just my set. In fact, his set won't even hold a charge for more than 5 minutes.
The golden rule for consumers really holds true here - you get what you pay for! If you want two-way-radios that REALLY work for 8 miles, you'll have to spend the money for a much better set. If you only need them for close proximity, under 1 mile, these will suffice.
**Edit**
So it turns out I got not only one, but THREE bad sets of radios from this seller... upon further inspection, we realized that each of the 6 radios were going dead in a matter of 20 minutes, no matter what batteries we used.
I'm glad Cobra is such a professional and trusted company - after one quick phone call, I was prompted to send the three sets back, and in around 8 business days I received 3 new sets that actually work longer than 20 minutes. It wasn't the radios, it was the seller apparently trying to rid of defective units. 3 different sets of radios that ALL went dead after 20 minutes? Coincidence? I think not. Don't buy from this seller.
Unfortunately, the transmission distance of 8 miles is still a crock, but at least they don't die after 20 minutes.
Wish there'd been more reviews..........2007-06-16
Okay, first question, why so few reviews? You go on to Amazon.com for the most obscure products, like "Ladies Nylon Ant removers," (remove those pesky ants from your Nylons before you dress in the morning ladies) and you'll see 72 reviews from mostly satisfied customers.
This product for some reason only had one other review. Not sure why. I ordered based on that one review. Mistake.
I got my Cobra PR170-2VP Micro Talk GMRS/FRS 2-Way Radios from Amazon in excellent time, very quickly, I thought. I followed the directions to charge up the batteries, and use the product. But for some reason, the sound kept cutting out. I also had problems with functioning radios. I would get about 5 minutes use out of a radio, before the "battery" seemed to stop working. I wasn't sure.
I tried completely new batteries in both radios, and only one consistently worked. Also, the battery indicator never showed "full" so I wasn't even sure if that meant "full battery" or not completely charged, or whatever? Since only one radio was working, it was difficult to tell if it even worked. And how soon before it mysteriously stopped working.
Very poor quality, and I am returning them today. Not recommended. Perhaps I got a bum pair, but like my fellow reviewer from June, I will be also going on vacation soon (to Disneyland) but right now, in June, and I've no time to wait for a refund, or return. I've purchased another pair of Cobra's from Circuit City, which is a step or two up from this model. And they work perfectly!!! And Circuit City even matched this price, as they'e pricing card was incorrectly displayed and they had to lower the price from $50.00. My lucky day.
MC White said: Boo!!!
Compact & Compatible.......2007-06-08
I love these little walkie-talkies! Got a pair of two and got to more coming for our vacation this coming August. Smaller that what you think, but thats not a bad thing. Easy to carry around and has a belt clip for even MORE CONVENIENCE! Ideal for men or women and works great. Rechargable batteries and charger INCLUDED. PS: Amazon and AntOnline are the best for shipping purposes, never had a problem with either on.

Good radios with a nice set of features but not perfect........2007-05-20
PROS*
COMFORT: They have a good fit and feel solid in my hand - not so small that they feel like a toy and certainly nothing like the old school walkie-talkie.
RECEPTION: The radios are crystal clear and have many channel and privacy options to select from. Reception for NOAA weather radio also works very well. Weather stations are clear if you are within about 50 miles of the transmitter.
BATTERY LIFE: Adequate for normal use. With constant monitoring and moderate transmitting they last a full day with no problem. The base charger is handy if you use the supplied batteries.
AA BATTERIES: One great selling point for me was the option of replacing the AA batteries if it became necessary. I bought these during the Katrina mess and wanted something that I could use regular alkaline batteries in if I had no other options. Believe me when I tell you that when the power goes out for weeks, aside from drinking water, there are few things more precious than a good set of spare batteries. When all other technology becomes useless a good set of batteries may be all that stands between you and news from the outside world, and having spare AA's is a simple swap if needed. For a field or emergency radio this should be a HUGE consideration.
CONS*
RANGE: They claim 12 miles. I suppose you could get 12 miles in the cold vacuum of deep space, but not anywhere near that on earth. The best I've seen was about 2.5 to 3 miles cross country.
WON'T CHARGE HI-CAP BATTERIES: While battery life is adequate for a full day using the supplied nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries, they have a capacity rating of only 1000 milliamp hours (mAh). Most MiMH batteries in the AA size that I've seen have capacity ratings from as low as 1600mAh to as high as 2750mAh. The higher the capacity rating the longer they will operate on a full charge, but don't try charging a higher capacity battery while in the radio because it won't work. With high capacity batteries installed, circuitry in the radio will not engage the charger even if the radios are stone dead. I tried a charger with the same voltage but higher output and it still didn't work. However; you can still use high capacity batteries with the radios as long as they have been fully charged in an external charger. If you own a digital camera or anything else that eats batteries you may already have one. Just check the charger for a label stating it is suitable for charging your type of battery.
MENU: The menu is not very intuitive. You scroll through options that are clear enough at first, but going below the top level of the menu can become confusing if you don't do it often enough to remember the steps. This is a common issue with all portable radios of this type so don't let this get in your way.
NOTE: I used these radios probably 3 times for a total of no more than 14 hours when one of them stopped transmitting. They were out of warranty but I sent Cobra a letter explaining the situation. The radios were in mint condition and have never seen dirt or water. Cobra stepped up and repaired the radio at no cost to me. I did not expect them to honor a warranty repair since the warranty coverage had expired, but they repaired the unit and Fed-X'd it back in less than two week. This is the kind of customer service I will remember when I need another pair of radios.
With the few issues I will still give the radios a high score because of the form, features, clarity, and because Cobra stood behind their product.
Very good, Great Preformance........2007-01-16
These radios work very well. The other model the one the one under this I think its the 3500, has a better screen layout that I liked better. And some of the quality was better on the older model. But with this model I found a better preformance with signal. I pick up more signals and they were clearer on the 3800. So overall this is the best preformance radio. And rechargeable batteries with the stand, you can't beat that.
Excellent.......2007-01-14
Bought in Aug 2006 and tested in several occasions; don't know if really covers the promised 12 miles however surely covers a great distance, with pretty clear sound.
The VOX feature saved our new year's eve party as it made the thing act as a reliable baby monitor.
Pretty light weight and the charging base is really convenient.
The ones to buy.......2007-01-11
These 2 way radios and the low price are hard to beat. They are really nice to have while hunting with my son. They work great and are quick and easy to recharge.
Cobra microTALK / GMRS 2-Way Radios.......2007-01-11
A good price deal; at least 20 percent lower than in major discount stores.
The "up to 12 Mile Range" is a real "caveat emptor", i.e., "buyer beware". This range must have been achieved only under the most optimum conditions; maybe over water or in a flat grain field in Kansas.
In any case, it does serve its purpose. The rechargeable standard AAA-size NiMH batteries are much better than the battery backs.

RV Trip.......2007-06-28
Eight users on our trip. Allowed all to keep up w/ each other.
Worked better than I expected.
Great Radios.......2007-06-12
i got these and the first thing i wanted to do is test them to see how far they went. I called up my friend who lives about 10mi away and on channel 15 we could hear each other clearly. Remember u Got to be on High power. Go for them. As far as I know with Li-ion batteries they are a must!
Good radios.......2007-06-12
They perform well and are very compact. They work great in line of sight usage, usually you can get upward of 1-2 miles in normal conditions.
i did not expect much!.......2007-05-23
i use them for work. i work at pet food plant with 2 concrete towers and i can communicate efectivly regardles of where i am in the plant. i have 2 sets of this model and a set of the 8 mile radios. when using them together the vibration alert is not active when initiating a call from the 8 mil radio, but does work with6000 model. the batteries on the 6000 last about 20-24 hrsas opposed to the 8 mile radios nicad rechargable batteries get from 7-8 hours only. the speaker on the 8 mile radio is louder than the 6000 model but regardless the unit's are better than the 3 pack motorolas offered at costco, those have a lousy speaker and those belt clips are cheap. yes the range expectation is no where near what is listed on the packages of all these various mfgs, for my application it is great i just hope they can take a beating, we'll see.
