What Is The Jupiter Jack?
The Jupiter Jack is a very small cell phone accessory that is designed to turn your car radio into a wireless speaker system for your cell phone. With the Jupiter Jack you can setup your radio so that it transmits all cell phone calls through your car speakers. All you have to do is hook the Jupiter Jack up to your phone and set your radio on the proper station and you are ready to go. When a phone call comes in you simply hit the answer button on your phone and begin talking out loud. The person calling you will be able to hear you and when they respond you will hear them through your car stereo speakers. The Jupiter Jack allows drivers to talk on their cell phones without having to hold their phone, deal with the wires of a hands free set, or even mess around with a silly blue tooth device that may not fit properly in their ear. With states such as California outlawing cell phone use while driving and others considering it the Jupiter Jack could be a good investment for you. Currently you can get the Jupiter Jack for $10.00 plus shipping and handling. As an added bonus you can get the dashboard mount for free or a second Jupiter Jack for free (you do pay separate shipping and handling of $6.99 for each item). The dashboard mount allows you to quickly and easily mount your cell phone and Jupiter Jack for quick and easy access while driving.
Does The Jupiter Jack Really Work?
Come on, are you really doubting whether an as seen on TV product endorsed by Pitchmen and Billy Mays works???
From the information that we have gathered we have concluded that the Jupiter Jack does work although not without flaw. While not the most robust or high tech it does do what is says it does however we have seen some negative comments regarding it. In the past the issue was related to the Jupiter Jack only having one radio frequency option (we were unable to confirm whether this was actually true but complaints made us believe that it was). If this was a problem it won't be anymore and we called Jupiter Jack personally to confirm this. Jupiter Jacks from the company now come equipped with the ability to be set on several of different frequencies so that you can be sure to find a frequency that doesn't already have a local radio station broadcasting on.
What Frequencies Can The Jupiter Jack Be Broadcasted On?
It is our understanding that new Jupiter Jacks comes with the ability to be set between 88.3 and 89.3 and also between 99.3 and 101.3. This range of frequencies gives all Jupiter Jack users plenty of options and allows them to find an unused frequency that will provide for clear reception and great sound quality. We have not gotten a hold of a Jupiter Jack to confirm this yet but this is how we understood the explanation from the Jupiter Jack customer service rep we called.
Are There Any Added Bonuses To The Jupiter Jack?
Some customers have reported that they have been able to use the Jupiter Jack with their MP3 players. Users have been able to hook their Jupiter Jack into their MP3 players and hear music through their car speaker system. This function is not guaranteed or advertised by Jupiter Jack but could be an added bonus for those that have a compatible MP3 player.
What Is the Jupiter Jack Return Policy?
Again, we personally called Jupiter Jack and were told that their return policy includes a 30 day money back guarantee. They stated that you can return the Jupiter Jack for any reason within 30 days and get a refund (minus shipping and handling). Of course you need to return the Jupiter Jack in working condition with its original packaging. If you think that you may want to return it be sure to keep everything until you have made a final decision. Remember usually when you return any item you purchased online you aren't refunded the shipping and handling costs.
How Is Jupiter Jack Customer Service?
When we personally called the Jupiter Jack customer service center in order to have them clarify a few things for our review they did a great job. The wait time was about 1 minute and we spoke to a customer service representative that answered all of our questions quickly. She was be very knowledgeable, easy to understand, and didn't have any problems answering our questions.
Are There Any Drawbacks To The Jupiter Jack?
One negative we have been able to come up is the inability to have a private conversation with the Jupiter Jack. If you use the Jupiter Jack anyone and everyone in your car will be able to hear the conversation. We have also found out that Jupiter Jack doesn't work with "all" cell phones and rather only works with "most" phones. Other issues including being over billed and the Jupiter Jack not providing good sound quality. Another negative is that they don't give you an order total before you submit thee order. When doing an order you need to be sure you haven't messed anything up before submitting it or you will end up being charged extra and they will not refund the shipping charges once a product is mailed out.
The Jupiter Jack Bottom Line
The Jupiter Jack is not the most robust or high tech device but it does fill an interesting niche area and is a one of a kind product. The best thing about the Jupiter Jack is it's cheap price of only $10 and its 30-day money back guarantee. The Jupiter Jack however seems to have gotten some negative comments below and therefore we are recommending it with caution.
