Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.

I recently decided to "cut the cord" using my ROKU and an HDTV antenna to see if I could save $ and live with it. I did some research before purchasing a Winegard Flatwave Amplified antenna from Home Depot. It was a piece of garbage. Very flimsy and I only received 12 channels. I returned it and did further research and found the MOHU Leaf 50. I found out that MOHU was the inventor of the "paper thin" antenna. I received the Leaf 50 today. It took 5 minutes to hook up and complete a channel scan as directed. After my experience with Winegard I could not believe my eyes!! I received 43 channels! The picture quality is perfect. I am happy I didn't give up after the Winegard experience....this $69 purchase is going to save me about $900 a year! Thank you Best Buy and Mohu!
What's great about it: Crystal Clear HD picture, extremely easy to set up and very unobtrusive
