Boosters (wired amplifiers) VS Repeaters (wireless amplifiers) For use in vehicles (cars, trucks, motorhomes, boats etc.)

Overview:

Wireless amplifiers (repeaters) cannot and will not improve range in a vehicle.
Some "wireless amplifiers" have recently been introduced into the marketplace for use in vehicles. The distributors of these devices claim that they can be used in vehicles to improve signal and range of a cell phone and that they do so without the cell phone being connected to the amplifier. This type of amplifier is commonly known as, and referred to, as a "repeater". The type of amplifier that improves signal but must be attached to the cell phone is commonly known as, and referred to, as a "booster".

The reason wired amplifiers (boosters) exist and all amplifiers are not wireless (repeaters) is because each device will improve signal in a certain environment and under a certain set of circumstances; one cannot be used in place of the other with the same result. If this was not the case, wired amplifiers (boosters) would not exist because it is always preferable not to connect a cell phone to any device.
