Throat Vibration Mic Headset for the Motorola Talkabout T-Series

MadDog

This is a non-branded and bought from Ebay for around £10, compatible with most Motorola Talkabout T – series two way radios. It comes with a throat mic, ear piece, separately wired PTT button and Motorola compatible 2.5mm plug.

This little gadget is lightweight, and would really be a plus in covert ops. The wires are thin, the audio tube and ear piece are almost inconspicuous and the PTT (Push To Talk) which is separately wired has a velcro attachment that can be secured on your index finger for easy and covert radio communication. I find this difficult to use with my gloves on and sometimes I push the button by accident as I am doing my maneuvers.

The ear piece is made of soft silicon material and works well in reducing outside noise--- the downside is you would feel deaf in one ear. In the skirmish scenario, I find it difficult listening for enemy movements. It's like the sound comes in mono! It gets a little bit disorientating at first, but like most things- you would get used to it in due time. The Throat Vibration Mic works very well. Even mere whispers can be transmitted clearly, excellent in stealth maneuvers.

All in all, a nifty bit of kit... for the price, you can't go wrong with this gadget.
