What is this transmitter?
--------------------------------------
This Bluetooth transmitter is used to add bluetooth to all your devices that do not.
CAUTION: It is only used for audio, and does that issuing the signal, it therefore serves no receiver and do not allow to transfer files.
This little box is thus used to transmit audio from a device (TV, MP3 / MP4 players, tablet ...) bluetooth. Thus Audio bluetooth headset, bluetooth car radio equipped or bluetooth speakers will receive the signal.
Simply put it plugs into any device emitting sound and having an audio jack output type (standard earphone jack) or RCA (Red and White dual socket). It is compatible with any device receiving audio bluetooth, regardless of brand.

In use:
--------------------
This case has a battery that allows it to operate for 6 hours. I have not used it long enough to check it, but 3h are far exceeded what can watch a movie, or 4 episodes of walking dead or to listen to music in the shower all week!
In addition, it works even during charging, when charging oblivion, it remains usable, for if one has a USB port or USB power adapter around.
To charge: you plug the mini-USB cable> USB supplied to the apparatus and any source can load the PC, AC adapter, cigarette lighter socket, portable battery ...).
I tested this unit with iPod (not equipped with bluetooth) and a Bluetooth speakerphone.
Use side, we can not get any easier, I plugged the jack on the iPod.
I pressed for 3 seconds the only button, it lights up and a small light (alternating blue and red) indicates its status (looking for a device connected etc ...).
I turned on my bluetooth speaker and made sure she also looks for a Bluetooth signal.
My enclosure is first connected to my phone which had the active bluetooth, I had to turn off my phone for Bluetooth transmitter that connects to the enclosure.
For the rest, nothing complicated, we start the music and you can enjoy the sound!
The sound quality is very good for this type of device. (After it also depends on the quality of the mp3, the device that transmits and receives from that ...). But overall the sound is close to the original one listened with earpieces.
So unless you are purists convenience.
I removed my iPod speaker to test the transmission distance: 10m easily from the bottom of my living room I went through my hallway to go into an adjacent room (open), it still broadcast music, but the quality and sound power have diminished.
Side size it is really compact and lightweight.
This transmitter is handy for those who run and who do not want to son hanging between the MP3 player and the ears, or to enjoy the playlist of MP3 player by car (equipped with Bluetooth radio), at home or on vacation, if you have bluetooth speakers.
But for me the best use is to connect it to the TV and enjoy a show without disturbing those around him with a bluetooth headphones on ... If you already have a bluetooth headphones at home, it avoids buy a wireless headset nearby.
