I bought this to add on to other walkie talkies we have at our office. First off let me say the battery of this walkie talkie is amazing!!! I bought the high capacity rechargeable batteries and it can go 3-4 days without a charge. I LOVE that you can charge it via micro USB. I have some higher-end walkie talkies that require a proprietary charger and I hate that I have to go to the warehouse to charge them. With this walkie talkie, I can easily charge it at my desk. It even has more features than the higher end walkie talkies (flashlight, different calling melodies, etc.) I'm definately buying more.
