I just got them and they are usbc but might as well be micro usb. They can't be charge with usbc to usbc or charger that does usbc pd standard. It only charges with usba to usbc.

All FRS radio are limited to 0.5w.
This is not true. This was under the old rules. Under the news rules the max power limit is 2 watts, with the exception of the seven 467 Mhz channels which are limited to .5 watts.

A search of the radio's FCC ID will confirm this although most are between 1 and 1.7 watts and .34 watts on the 467 Mhz channels.

The RT22 is only 16 channel. They don't include the 467 Mhz channels (.5w) on this model. And according to FCC ID, these are 1.08w.
These also have their own privacy codes, so they can't communicate, easily, with other FRS way radios. I've been trying to find one that matches, with my old Midland A51 model, and haven't found a compatible channel, with privacy code, that will match, yet.

Are the privacy codes not standard or are they simply specific per channel and can't be changed?

Yeah, I've run into that problem before. It was something I rarely charge. Maybe a streaming box remote, don't remember. My new, big, fancy USB C chargers and USB C cables wouldn't work at all. Had to use the USB A to USB C cable. Bingo! Which is such a drag because I enjoy simplicity.

Yes, it would work, but almost all ships now search your luggage with scanners and xrays and when found,will be confiscated. If they catch you walking around using them, they will also confiscate them. I used them on Royal Caribbean,but never openly. Some ships will kick you off the ship if found or deny boarding if found. They are really looking for power strips, chargers, and anything electrical that could cause a fire, but will not overlook these when found.

If using these while traveling in cars on the road, will these work if the cars are close enough?
In the 80s, I saw a communication device that would let you dial someone else from a car. It was like a brick but freed you from using a landline. Wish those things would have caught on. I would have expected by now everyone would have one in their pockets.

Big Nope. Mini-USB charger. I got the 3pack with USB-C for about that price.
I actually bought this exact same product on Prime Day for $39.99. No coupon code at the time. I could exchange for the difference in cost but the range isn't as great as advertised. Maybe half mile without interferences. With any ounce of interference, that range begins to tank very rapidly

I would recommend something other than this. The range is not as great as advertised. Especially with radio interferences from vehicles plus obstructions that may be in the way. If you guys are planning on staying very close distance, maybe it'll work

FWIW, being a ham, we programmed one for getting into a local 440 repeater which is 15 miles away. No issues getting into it, but then the repeater has altitude and a high gain antenna.
