Tactical Walkie Talkies | Tech Wholesale

At TechWholesale, military radios are some of the most important devices that we sell, and we take them very seriously.

What do you Need in a Tactical Walkie-Talkie?

The following are some of the most important features to keep in mind when you’re looking for the ideal radio. However, it’s important to remember that there is no one-size-fits-all answer when purchasing a walkie-talkie.

While range might be an essential factor, different teams have different range needs. So always ask yourself what your requirements are for each feature.

Range

Range is incredibly important when it comes to tactical walkie-talkies. You need to make sure that wherever your team goes, they’ll be able to contact one another and your office/management with no issues.

That’s why you have to ensure that your security team has access to radios with the right amount of range. If the radio’s range is too short, you risk falling out of contact in potentially dangerous or complicated situations.

On the flip side, if you’re just looking for radios that allow communication around the office, investing in a radio with a massive range could be a waste of money.

Durability

One of the most important features of a radio is durability. Operations could involve a lot of harsh conditions, where your radio could be exposed to any number of environments. You need to make sure that the radio that you choose can handle such rigors.

Thankfully, all of the radios we’re detailing on this page are composed of military-grade hardware and have been designed to withstand damage.

Battery Life

You need to ensure that the radio you choose has enough battery life to last throughout the day. This means purchasing a walkie-talkie with a battery that can keep going.

Of course, you might need upgraded batteries or backup batteries to swap out. That’s why when you make a radio selection, we recommend also checking out the various Motorola walkie-talkie accessories that we carry.

If you’re not sure exactly what you’re looking for, you can finish this radio questionnaire to help you find the right two-way radio for your needs.

Motorola Curve

When looking for a tactical radio, the first up on our list is the Motorola Curve. While this device was developed specifically for the retail, hospitality, and restaurant industries, its 900 MHz ISM band and a slew of special features will benefit the user.

Also, when you purchase this radio, there are no FCC licenses required, so you’ll actually save money in the long run.

The outdoor range on this radio provides reliable communication for up to two miles. Indoors, you’ll be able to communicate for 300,000 square feet (the equivalent of 20 floors).

The battery life of this device is 11.5 hours, which should be able to weather most light missions.

While the Curve can easily act as a stand-alone device, offering radio-to-radio communication, it also ties into Wi-Fi systems, unlocking more functionality. This includes the ability to use voice command processing through the cloud.

When using the Curve, officers will be able to send private voice messages to the handsets of their choice. The recipient can then play these messages whenever it’s safe to do so.

Motorola TLK-100

The Motorola TLK-100’s impressive and far-reaching range makes it a perfect tactical walkie talkie. How far is its range? It covers the entire continental United States.

This digital radio runs on a 4G LTE cellular network, meaning that if there’s a cell phone signal, the radio will be usable. The TLK-100 also connects to Wi-Fi signals, so service will remain even in areas where cell reception is poor.

It’s going to be easy for your team to carry the TLK-100, as it weighs in at just 5.86 ounces. That means it won’t be a cumbersome nuisance when you need to be effective in the field.

This radio is also highly versatile. Mobile phones that have the Motorola WAVE OnCloud mobile app installed will be able to communicate with TLK-100 handsets seamlessly.

You’ll find that the Motorola TLK-100 is also a tough radio, meeting MIL-STD C, D, E, and F spec ratings and the MIL 810G Standard.

This radio was designed to withstand low-pressure environments, high and low temperatures, solar radiation, dust blowing, temperature shock, vibration, shock, and immersion.

Motorola TLK-150

If you’re looking for a great radio for vehicles, the Motorola TLK-150 is an ideal choice. This mounted device takes the effectiveness and range of the Motorola TLK-100 and places it within a security vehicle.

With the TLK-150, you’re getting the same nationwide range as the Motorola TLK-100. It’s also powered by 4G-LTE cell phone towers, making it an ideal choice for your traveling or spread-out security team.

You can mount your Motorola TLK-150 units in any vehicle, where drivers will be able to easily access the device while keeping their eyes on the road.

Several Motorola TLK-150 accessories make this even easier. There’s a separately sold foot-operated PTT button and visor-mounted microphone that allow for a fully hands-free experience for your driver.

The device also has built-in GPS tracking, so you’ll never lose one of your vehicles out on the road.

Your business’ office can use the TLK-150 to address all drivers simultaneously or communicate privately with one person.

These radios are set up specifically for you by the staff here at Tech Wholesale. We can even assign code names to the radios so that you’ll always know who you’re communicating with and when.

The TLK-150 is military-grade hardware that meets MIL-STD 810 standards for pressure, temperature, radiation, shock, dust, rain, immersion, and vibration.

Motorola RDU4160d

The Motorola RDU4160d is a four-watt powerhouse device that runs on a UHF band. This is the device you need for heavy-duty or dangerous assignments.

It has a whopping 16 channels to choose from, meaning you can segment teams to their own specific channels. Communications will never get muddled.

It’s a perfect walkie-talkie for large areas.

With an outdoor range of up to three miles and an indoor range of 30 floors or 350,000 square feet, it already has some impressive range. However, this device is also repeater capable, meaning that you can increase your coverage area if need be. With the use of a repeater (sold separately), you’ll be able to increase your outdoor range from three miles to six.

It’s also highly durable. The RDU4160d is made from a metal die-cast chassis wrapped in a polycarbonate overmold. What does this mean for you? It’s super tough and can even withstand high-powered water jets with no damage.

The RDU4160d meets IP-54/55 ratings. It also meets MIL-STD 810 C, D, E, and F standards. This radio was built to withstand shock, extreme temperatures, and vibration without breaking.

It’s the perfect option for hunters, bodyguards, or security teams who guard large properties outdoors.
