Weatherproof Construction
There’s a good chance that at some point, you’ll need two-way contact in adverse conditions – so you need a radio that’s up to the challenge. And, with IP54 construction technology, the Motorola T480 is a solid choice, capable of withstanding any weather conditions Mother Nature throws at you.
Don’t Let Mother Nature Take You by Surprise
Speaking of Mother Nature – she’s notorious for trying to take you by surprise. Suddenly clear skies turn dark as angry storm clouds roll in, or the heavens open without warning and you’re suddenly in the middle of torrential rain. Stay prepared with the T480’s Weather Alert feature and 11 weather channels, including 7 NOAA, and ensure Mother Nature never gets the drop on you unexpectedly. Plus, having a two-way combined with a weather alert radio, means you only have to buy one piece of kit – saving you money and space.
Big Wireless Range
In optimal conditions, with a clear line of sight, this two-way radio from Motorola has a maximum mountain to valley range of 35 miles. For those seafaring explorers, the radio can manage an impressive 6 miles across open water. If you’re in a built up area, obviously there’s a lot more interference and obstructions, but the T480 still gives you a range of up to 1 mile – plenty for the vast majority of needs.
Shhh…. Don’t Spook the Wildlife
Make sure your community don’t inadvertently ruin your hunt and frighten away your prey, or give away your position to an enemy. Simply turn off calls. You’ll still get weather and emergency alerts, so you’ll still be ready, just in case.
Alternatively, if you want to stay quiet but need to stay in touch with your community, plug in the headphones and listen to the chatter without spooking the beasties.Always Ready to Grab and Go
If an emergency arises, the last thing you need is to have to hunt around for your radio, or scramble to find enough disposable batteries to power it. Thankfully, with the T480, you don’t have to. Plug the micro-USB charging cable into an outlet and into your radio, then stand the radio in the desk stand, which you can also mount on the wall if you prefer. The power cable sits discreetly behind the stand and ensures your radio is always charged and ready to grab and go.
“Help!”
For those times when you really need immediate help, the Motorola T480 features an emergency alert button that, once depressed, transmits a siren, turns up the volume on your community’s radios and locks their buttons for 30 seconds to make sure they know you need help.
Hey – Who Turned Out the Lights?!?
If you’re camping, in an emergency scenario, or there’s a power outage, a light is crucial, and the T480 features a built-in LED emergency flashlight to help you stay safe.
