General

We now have several new Midland radios in stock and ready to ship! These are brand new models loaded with great features and Midland's quality design and reliability.

The first one is the Midland GXT-1050-VP4 radio. The Midland GXT-1050-VP4 boasts an amazing 5 watts of power, allowing for a range of up to 36 miles in optimal conditions (typically 2 miles or less in urban conditions). The GXT1050VP4 is a full featured radio that includes everything you need! This value pack includes rechargeable batteries, a desktop charger with AC wall and DC vehicle adapters, and a pair of headsets with microphones.

Next, the Midland GXT740 boasts an amazing 5 watts of power, allowing for a range of up to 34 miles in optimal conditions (typically 2 miles or less in urban conditions). The GXT740VP3 is a full featured FRS/GMRS radio and is packed with features.

The Midland LXT480VP3 two way radio provides a maximum range of up to 24 miles in optimal conditions (typically less than 1.5 miles in urban conditions)! This radio supports all 22 standard FRS and GMRS channels and adds 14 extra channels for a total of 36 channels! Support is also provided for 121 privacy codes per channel on the standard channels.

The RLC-100 Redlight Camera Detector is a full-feature redlight and speed camera warning system. It is very compact and is great to use with a radar detector. The RLC-100 is legal for use in all 50 states. It has an easy to read dual alert display that also can be used as a speedometer, clock, and trip meter. The RLC-100 compares your current GPS location with an on-board database of red light and speed camera locations and alerts you when you are near one.

This is a very affordable GPS enabled warning system. You will not be relying on a redlight camera "service" or website for inconsistent updates, or have to constantly check your location on a phone or navigation display while driving.

With more and more cities installing redlight and speed cameras, a good warning device is almost a necessity to avoid overpriced fines. We have the Whistler RLC-100 ready to ship for $79.99!

Do you have more devices in your vehicle than places to charge them, or is your auxiliary charging port in the glove box or center console? Well, we now have three new cigarette lighter splitters / adapters.

The XLT CA200 Two Port Cigarette Lighter Adapter ($3.99) can power two devices and is a compact design so it is easy to use and store.

The XLT CA250 Two Port Cigarette Lighter Adapter with USB Port ($9.99) can be used to charge almost any device with a USB port, including many two way radios that support a USB cable.

The XLT CA300 Three Port Cigarette Lighter Adapter ($9.99) can also be hardwired for custom installations, and comes with two-sided tape so you can mount the adapter just about anywhere.

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.

It's easy to understand why someone would be uneasy about making a purchase from an internet site they're not familiar with. If your personal information, such as your credit card number, fell into the wrong hands it could cost you plenty of time and money.
We want you to feel at ease when you shop with us, and the following links to our customer reviews are one way that we can show that we are legitimate. The reviews below are from our other sites as well as this one. They are maintained by reputable third parties so you can be certain that the reviews you are reading are real, and left by customers just like yourself.

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!
