16-channel two-way radio set

The EMERSON BAOFENG BF-888S is a pair of handheld radios designed for adults who need reliable voice communication outdoors or on a work site. Each unit operates on 16 preset channels within the 136-174 MHz band and includes an earpiece for private listening. The package supplies two radios, two 1500mAh Li-ion batteries, two US chargers, belt clips, slings and a manual.

Frequency range 136-174 MHz

The decisive specification is the 136-174 MHz tuning range, which places these radios in the VHF spectrum and determines whether they can legally and practically talk to the other equipment you already use. Channel selection is performed by rotating the top knob to one of the 16 preset positions.

1500mAh battery capacity

A full charge takes 3-4 hours and yields up to 96 hours on standby or 8-12 hours of continuous talk time; the manufacturer also cites a 36-hour standby and 20-hour continuous rating. The built-in LED flashlight adds a convenient light source, but heavy transmit use will drain the pack faster than the standby figures suggest.
