Toshiba Gigabeat S MES60VK Integrated 12v DC Car Charger and FM Transmitter - Uses Gomadic TipExchange to play music on the FM radio
  • Smart technology circuit architecture provides precision voltage and resistor regulation specific to the Toshiba Gigabeat S MES60VK. Protects the internal battery longevity by modulating the charge in a safe and efficient manner.
  • Full FM frequency spectrum is available and is user selectable in 0.1MHz increments from 88.1 to 107.9 MHz. Advanced Digital PLL sound coding maintains stable and high quality sound.
  • Transmitters emit a powerful FM signal that is the maximum allowed by FCC regulation. Advanced signal isolation provides crystal clear sound quality.
  • Comprehensive input range of 12-24VDC to support a wide variety of vehicles (both foreign and domestic). Works great on boats and RVs too!
  • Non-coiled cable design allows for easy routing around your vehicle trim for a more professional look. Durable construction is built to last.

This works pretty well, and considering the dearth of accessories around for the Gigabeat, you have to take what you can get.

It works really well if you only use it as an FM transmitter or battery charger, not both at once. However with the power and audio cords plugged in, there is a distinct high frequency whine. It you're travelling at highway speeds, you probably won't notice it over the noise of the engine. But it seems to vary based on engine speed, so during a stop-start drive around the suburbs you will notice it. It's a pity they couldn't have filtered this noise out, especially since it's "second generation", so presumably someone would have noticed this before.

It's built pretty well and I like the idea that I can get other tips in the future to use it for other music devices or phones.
