As of Friday, 8 December (Yesterday) FM Transmitters for MP3 players legal in the US

You heard it here first! But in the run up to this Friday's change in legislation consumers need to be aware of the legalities behind the "grey" imports. Sure they look like legal product and they sometimes even function like legal products but if the product is not marked with the CE mark they are not legal for use in the UK or Europe. The ce mark is the official marking required by the European Community for all Electric- and Electronic equipment that will be sold, or put into service for the first time, anywhere in the European community. It proves to the user that this product fulfils all essential safety and environmental requirements as they are defined in the European Directives.

Consumers need to look for this mark which should be situated on both the product and the packaging to ensure that the product they are buying complies to the European directive and UK legislation for FM transmission. Fundamental changes were made to the specification of the units. One of the more important being that the units which will be legal for use in the UK as of Friday, 8 December are lower powered and do not have the capacity to interfere with essential services radio transmissions.

FM transmission products offer an easy & portable solution for users who wish to listen to their music, podcasts, audio books or other audio files in the car but lack a cassette player or a means to hard wire a cable. Simply connect the FM transmitter to the MP3 player, find an "empty" frequency on their FM radio and tune the FM transmitter into the same frequency, the unit will then broadcast the audio from the MP3 play to the radio with high quality sound. Models vary and are available in a universal format “ compatible with all MP3/audio players with a 3.5mm headphone jack, iPod specific versions and a Samsung specific version. The Belkin FM transmitters are available now and range in price from $29.99 inc VAT to $59.99 inc VAT
