Binatone terrain 750. Very good.

They come with a dock to charge but in 5-10 years when batteries die you can put in normal aaa batteries.

About £40 on amazon

I have got a set of Motorola T80 Extreme walkie talkies and they are really good.

Even more confused now! I like the look of the t80 extreme though, silly question probably but will any make of handset work with each other?

If they are on what is termed pmr 446 then yes,the professional ones such as the mitex and motorola wont as they run on either vhf or uhf.

Ok, if I got the motorola t80 and then say someone else bought another pair would we be able to speak to each other? Sorry if it's basic stuff but I have no idea on this

the motorola t80 is a pmr446

So would be compatable with the binatone ones I posted and most others.

Ive done a little digging and you want either uhf or pmr446

Binatone Action, never had problems with mine.

10km range to boot!

the motorola t80 extreme is a consumer radio.

Might not be the best for your needs. Have a look at mietex or whatever phil mentioned or other brands as well
