Armouring up for Black Friday discounts, but don’t want to spend frivolously?

All the big names out there are already partaking in the ‘Black Friday Frenzy’, flabbergasting the public with enticingly cheap deals before Christmas destroys their piggy banks. From all the big store names to online retailers, deals are being thrown left, right and centre, and can only be grabbed (literally with the employment of fisty cuffs) on Friday 24th November. If you’re a bargain hunter, then this is the TIME to dust off that steel plated armour and get energised for putting up a fight for those reduced frying pans and TV stands, that can, in some form, be added to the list of “unwanted Christmas presents of 2017”. Not to sound negative, but Black Friday does bring out a tendency to enact the mantra “spend, spend, spend” – and on items that can be so easily disregarded.

So… why not make this the FIRST Black Friday where you spend willingly and with purpose? 2017 is a lucky year for techy lovers and so why not look at the greatest technology with the heftiest of discounts, to go in your shopping basket? Whether it’s you, or an individual in your family whose gift idea this Festive season is just driving you up the wall with frustration, why not go down the gadget pathway and invest in some two-way radios, to have a bit of fun this winter holiday.

Two-way radios, formerly known by Amateur Radio Specialists as the ‘Walkie Talkie’, is a ‘MUST-GET’ for many reasons. Not only a greatly interactive gift for pulling your family off the sofa and encouraging them to venture out for a Wintry walk across the fields, walkie talkie in hand – but this piece of technology has flourished by leaps and bounds and is now a highly considered option for secure mobile communications in any professional environment. So, not only would you be experimenting with some fun equipment, but testing out a business possibility for 2018.

If you’re not yet convinced and questioning how two-way radio can tick both boxes for an easy-going gift to a full-on security system that tightens up work-place efficiency – here is a 5-point guide to how our most popular selling two-way radio models can make a difference:

1. Designed for skilled professionals, Motorola’s DP4000e series delivers complete connectivity to your business. From integrating Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, location tracking and plenty of cleverly designed safety and productivity features to safeguard your workforce and boost productivity.

Did you know?  The DP4400e specifically has survived tough military-standard testing to earn its IP68 waterproof rating!

2. Not to be confused with the original DP3000 series, the DP3000e is an incredibly compact radio series whilst ensuring there is no skimping on power or technical features! It also boasts an impressive IP68 rating, making it waterproof and robust enough to withstand the harshest environments.


Did you know? This is probably what makes the DP3000e a very popular choice of radio for the marine and yachting industry, where its ruggedness has frequently been put to the test and not found wanting.

3. If a combination of ruggedness and ultra-slim compactness is what you’re looking for, the SL1600 should be on your shopping list. At just 22mm thick and the same height as an iPhone 5, it’s small enough to fit inconspicuously in your pocket or handbag, but it has a unique, shatterproof and hidden LED display and it’s built to withstand plenty of drops and tumbles. This makes it particularly useful for every-day users … and those who prefer a more discreet profile (especially when playing 007 versus Batman in your snowy garden)!

4. Vertex Standard has managed to grab the fourth position of our Top 5 sellers list with the EVX S24 – well deserved in our opinion! It’s a cost effective little model, operating in both analogue and digital modes, so upgraders have flexibility without incurring extra handset expenses when they make the switch.

Did you know? With an IP67 rating, this little radio will withstand immersion in up to 3 feet of water for 30 minutes. Brilliant for Watersports … or for something a bit more seasonal - snowball fights!

5. The Hytera PD405 – our last but definitely not least valuable radio! This model is, without doubt, one of the most effective introductory radios for those looking to enter into the two-way communications world. Offering one of the most affordable digital solutions, the PD405 model from Hytera is a sturdy companion for everyday work. Lightweight with a long battery life and supportive of both analogue and digital operation, the PD405 ensures a smooth migration to digital radio.


Still a bit doubtful … why not have a Product Trial?
