Thomas with the Robot Walkie talkie RT36

 

1,About Thomas

Thomas is an 11 year old boy from the UK, he has autism and is struggling with his independence a little bit. He likes to ride his bike around the street, but sometimes get’s distracted or goes off a little far.

His Dad does stand outside and keeps an eye on him, but when he goes around the block, those five minutes out of sight can be a little nerve racking, knowing he may get distracted or head off somewhere without letting Dad know.

2,What’s in it?

Last week, Thomas received a gift from Retevis, he was so excited and could not wait to find what was inside! Thomas gets his first set of “Robot” walkie talkies, the Retevis RT36.

Thomas is very happy to get the Robot walkie talkie RT36, He enjoyed talking to his Dad and sharing the radio’s with his Brothers Oscar and Leo.. They had great fun using the radio’s in the park.

4,About the Walkie talkie RT36

The Retevis RT-36 Walkie talkie comes in a set of 2, has rechargeable batteries, belt clip and a really neat double charger (you can charge both radios together from one plug).

Assemble is easy, insert batteries, push the belt clip in place and you are ready to go. Batteries are hidden behind the belt clip and no concerns that children will get access easily.

Charging is simple, move the robot arm up, insert cable and plug in, few hours is all that is needed for several hours of operation.

As a Parent, I had a small concern that the red rubber feet of the robot, could easily be pulled off and therefore swallowed or potential choke hazard.

The radios have some neat features, you can customise the colour of the screen (7 to choose from)

There is a paging signal, press the power button for a second, you can choose 10 different sounds

You can activate VOX, which means when radio hears your voice it will transmit, useful for smaller children who can’t quite press the button

On one of the Robot feet is a small but very bright LED light, which the children found useful when it got darker and at night (kept by the bed)

 

Thomas really enjoyed playing with the robot walkie talkie, he has autism, but found the radio simple to use and the bright colours and simple design gave him easy access to using them.

5,Happy will never end.

Leo and Oscar, both really enjoyed using the radio, they made up several games including using the robot as a Pokemon device (sorry Dad has no idea),i hope the happiness will around the Thomas and his brother Leo and Oscar.

  1. Hello, thanks very much for sending Thomas (and his Brothers Oscar and Leo) the RT-36 ROBOT walkie talkies to review and play with. They had great fun together playing in the park and keeping fit. They used the radio is several different games including hide and seek, Pokemon (I don’t know) and many others.
    The RT36, as discussed above is a net well packaged walkie talkie and has a good range on it, we tested around the block at home and easily did 700 meters without breaking up. These work on PMR frequencies and are low power and fixed antenna so meet the OFCOM guidelines. They are easy to use by the children and the bright colours mean they are easily seen and not lost when put down. The display has several colours and there are several alarm sounds too. VOX for hands free usage is also a nice feature. Be aware of the little runner feet coming off with smaller children (take them off before use) I really liked the double charger feature, that is quite nifty and saves a lot of hassle. The radios are well made and tough, have survived several drops from a height with no bad side effects. Great product all in all would recommend, with supervision.
