Motorola T8500 Hunting Gear Misc


Hunting Gear Misc Manufacturer: Motorola
Motorola Model: T8500
Review Category: Hunting Gear Misc

Purchase: Hunting Gear Misc We have several guys who hunt at our camp and have found walkie talkies to be a great way to communicate when they work properly. The use of walkie talkies not only helps with communicating about deer movement, but are also a great way to remain safe. Each morning about a half hour after we leave camp everyone is to check in to make sure they got to and into their tree stands safely.

Things I like about the Motorola T8500 Hunting Gear Misc: I really can't say I like a lot about these walkie talkies.

What I don't like about the Motorola T8500: Where do I start. First off these radios are horrible for deer hunting as they make way to many noises. In addition the reception seems to vary from unit to unit. Last, but not least they chew up batteries or charges quickly. In fact in the cold you'll sometimes be lucky to get eight hours from them before they fade away.

Hunting Gear Misc T8500 quality: They appear rugged, however I recently dropped one from about five foot onto the wooden platform of my tree stand and you guessed it. That was all she wrote for that one. I'm lucky I didn't drop it the full twenty feet up from my tree stand.

T8500 summary: Prior to next hunting season when I go to buy all of my hunting gear for the year I'll be looking for walkie talkies that are simple to use and cheap. I don't want whistles and buzzers to go off when someone is calling me. I want almost kid like walkie talkies with just a few channels and not a lot of buttons. I want my radios to be simple just like the rest of my hunting gear. I like this website, don't change.
