The Cobra CXR725 is Here!
The new Cobra CXR725 has arrived here and so far we like it a lot. Cobra claims the CXR725 is the "world's smallest high-powered GMRS/FRS radio" and we think that may very well be the case. It has a very compact design (though not much different from previous CXR series radios) that will make it very easy to carry around. It is not much bigger than a cell phone, so those of you looking for a small, but feature rich radio, should give it a look.
The Cobra CXR725 has VOX hands free operation, VibrAlert® silent paging, NOAA weather alerts, a backlit display, and it comes standard with rechargeable high capacity lithium ion battery. In fact, the CXR725 is one of the few GMRS radios with a Li-ion battery.
We have the Cobra CXR725 here in stock and ready to ship out for $49.99. If you have any questions then just give us a call (877-226-6445), send an email, or leave a comment here on our blog.

Cruiser Accessories License Plate Frames and Covers
Some of the most popular accessories we carry are license plate frames and covers, so we are pleased to let all of you know that we have expanded our selection. The plate frames are perfect to use with the Super Protector and other red light / speed camera defense products and the plate covers work great with Laser Veil.
One of the best features of the Cruiser frames is that they do not obscure or cover license plate numbers or other plate information. This means they are to legal in most states. If you have any questions regarding the allowable usage of plate frames and covers where you live, we recommend that you contact your local DMV office.
The plate covers are very durable, and the TUF SHIELD plates are almost indestructible. If you are in an area where license plate theft is common, just add a set of locking fasteners for even more security. We have a great selection of frames, covers, and hardware available and ready to ship. Please contact us with any questions!

Why Buy From Banoggle.com?
We understand that you have many choices when it comes to purchasing automotive and communications related electronics. In this article, I would like to point out a few things that separate us from our competitors.
- Fast Shipping - As we state in our shipping policy, our goal is to ship every order that is submitted before 4:00PM EST the same day. We meet this goal with over 99% of our orders.
- We warehouse our products - We own our warehouse and we stock all of the products that we sell. You would be amazed to learn how many web sites simply take orders and pass them to a huge distributor for shipment. Have you ever wondered how that company you've never heard of can afford to have thousands of products "In Stock"? They can't -- they have them "drop-shipped"!! Drop shipping can lead to a very bad customer experience because the company you're buying from has no control of the product being shipped. There is no way to guarantee that the product is even in stock, or that a shipping error will not occur.
- Great Prices - We scout our competition daily to be sure that our prices are always competitive. On many products, we are also able to offer discounts to customers purchasing in larger quantities.
- Web Site Tools - We have developed intuitive tools, such as our Smart Search or Product Comparison pages, to make it easier for you to compare products or locate products with certain features. We also strive to provide detailed product descriptions and explanations for each feature of a product.
- Product Knowledge - Have you ever tried asking a specific product question at one of those sites that sell thousands of products? Good luck. Even smaller sites are often unable to make recommendations or offer information beyond what is available on the site. We are different. When we decide to branch into a new product line, we invest the time to become experts on those products. That means our web site will offer more detailed information, and when you call or email we will be able to answer your questions and offer helpful advice.
- Contact Information - You would be suprised at how many web sites do not list a phone number or a physical address on their web site. Some don't even offer an email address! You won't have that problem with us. Our contact information is featured prominently on our web site, and we are always happy to assist you.
- Customer Service - If you have a question about an order or have a product you would like to return, we are always happy to assist.
- Experience - We have been in business on the internet since 2002, and in that time we have learned what it takes to make an online business succeed. When you buy from us, you can rest assured that we will be here to support you after the sale.

Welcome To Banoggle.com
Banoggle.com has just launched and is brand new! Thank you for visiting! This web site may be new, but our company is not. We have been in the ecommerce business since 2002, operating the niche web sites BuyRadarDetectors.com and BuyTwoWayRadios.com. Since our first site was launched, we have become successful because we offer our customers the combination of expert product knowledge and great prices. This will continue to be our focus with Banoggle.com.
Why A New Site?
At the moment, Banoggle is little more than a consolidation of the products that we already offered on our other sites plus some fresh content. However, in the near future we will be adding several new product lines. Having a more generic site like Banoggle means that we can add new products more easily, without the overhead of creating a new site for each type of product.
Our plan is to add products that fall under the very general Automotive and Communications categories. Within the next few months look for CB Radios and Police / Racing Scanners to join Two Way Radios in the communications category, and Alcohol Detectors and Digital Vehicle Compasses to join Radar Detectors under the automotive category.
Why The Name Banoggle? What Does It Mean?
Anytime I have told someone about this new site, their first question is inevitably about the name. Banoggle is a word that we made-up while trying to come up with a name. After months of back-and-forth, Banoggle just happens to be the name that stuck. We wanted something short, unique, and catchy. It's definitely short and unique, but we'll have to wait and see how catchy it is!
