PACKTALK OUTDOOR DUO PACK BLACK

If you ski/snowboard with your partner regularly, you’ll love these. My wife and I got these and just used the on our first ski trip last month. We were able to keep in touch on the slopes which was great for choosing directions and sharing info/warnings about others who were coming too close to each other. The range was really good (we reckoned c.300 metres) and the batteries lasted us two days on a single charge. We just love them and can’t imagine hitting the slopes without them now.

This enhanced our skiing holiday even more than we could have imagined. It's always my partner and I and we are always having to stop to figure out where to go or often lose sight of one another. This fixes all of that wasted time and frustration. It's also great for getting orders in at the bar! It doesn't need your phone like a lot of these Bluetooth headsets, it has it's own connection. You can connect your phone if you want to play music through it as well - which works simultaneously while connected to other packs, meaning you can still talk to your buds while listening. Range can be an issue sometimes, but so long as you are relatively close it's great (50m ish) or if you have a clear line of sight (no obstructions in the way, like a mountain) then it works further.

What a product. It worked flawlessly whilst snowboarding. Clipped to the strap of my goggles against my helmet the buttons were easy and consistent to use. Connection was great with the mesh network (3 of us). The sound though - wow! The JBL speakers were fantastic. Music and speech sounded great. How the microphone doesn't pick up all the other noise associated with flying down a mountain I'll never know. We heard no sniffing, no wind, no heavy snow/sleet. Overall really impressed and it will now be mounted to my motorbike helmet and additional headset purchased.

Honestly these are a game changer when skiing in a group!

Easy to fit works well good sound quality only problem is remembering the correct voice commands other than that it's grate also I bought a second helmet kit for my motorbike helmet just move the main unit from one to the other that work fine to ,hope this helps.

When you fly a wingsuit with your friends and can talk to each other, 2 miles above the ground travelling at 100 mph....whats not to like. I just wish I didn't have a hard opening and lose one over a farmers field. (Thats my fault, not theirs)

Quality bit of kit, sound quality is brilliant

Brilliant sound quality and good connectivity. Had some issues with feedback when we first started. 2 units had gone mono and by playing with the cable have managed to get back to stereo - don’t overstretch the cable

El producto es lo que ofrecen, tienes que bajarte la aplicación y llevar el teléfono pero funciona perfectamente. yo los uso para casco de bicicleta, y hay que hacer un “apaño” manual para adaptarlos. Yo lo hice con velcro y me funciona

バイク用インカムとして有名なカルドです。 バイク用と音声品質は変わらなくきれいに聞こえますがスキー、スノーボード用にする為にスピーカーも大きくなっています。 ヘルメット被る前提ですね。 最大1kmですがもちろんのこと遮蔽物があれば短くなります。 他のインカムとも通信が可能なので早速スキー場で試しましたがまだ全面オープンではないので通話が途切れることはなかったです。 ただやっぱりスキー、スノーボード時に使うのは携帯の電波が入る限りBONXが便利だなと思いました。

By far the best ski equipment I have ever bought. I purchased duo pack and we used them at day & night skiing. Talking hands free all the way, and having easy access to mute audio/mic controls are super convenient. My partner's helmet had pockets for the earpieces which made it super easy to install. My helmet didn't have the pockets, but the package comes with several types of female velcros (rounded, and H shaped), and I used super glue to stick velcros on each side of my helmet's inner to attach ear pieces. Both earpieces have made side of the velcro so it becomes very easy to attach them. Box also comes with several easy mount attachments. Great product! Bonus: Cardo sticker looked quite cool on the helmet :)

Considero que el Cardo PACKTALK Outdoor fue una buena compra, sobre todo para quienes están enseñando o aprendiendo el deporte. Facilita la comunicación, permitiendo dar indicaciones en tiempo real sin tener que detenerse o hablar en voz alta, lo que ayuda a aprovechar mejor el día en la montaña. Como punto negativo, la conexión entre dos usuarios requiere el uso de una app en el móvil, algo que me resultó poco intuitivo y que obliga a depender del teléfono y de su batería en un entorno donde la comunicación debería ser más autónoma. En general, recomiendo la compra para quienes visitan la montaña con amigos o familia, con frecuencia para practicar deportes o pasear, debido a alta inversion.

First off, I was really interested in the Milo, but they weren't shipping when I needed them to (I don't know if they're even shipping yet 4/2023). I decided to go with the Cardo because; the price is the same, they're ready to ship, & Cardo has a good history of similar products in the motorcycle world. I'm glad I went this way. The system works as advertised. You can talk hands free across some pretty good distance. I had no issue synching up 5 units together & all of us talking to one another. I've used this skiing & it lasts all day out on the hill. When I power it down it says that there is still 50% battery. Once the units are all paired together, they will re-pair when powered up next to each other the next day. The unit has controls on it that are easy to access & manipulate with ski gloves on, there's also voice command but I didn't really use it that much. But once you learn what buttons do what command, it's pretty intuitive. This has no built in speaker, so you need to use the provided speaker/mic. They really only fit in the ear pads of a helmet, so you'll need to have that. They do provide stick on options but I don't know where you might mount them on a helmet. Maybe if you have an old pair of headband style headphones, you could rig it up into that. Maybe Cardo will make something. The alternative is to use the plug in jack, where you can plug in a pair of corded headphones with a mic so that you get the full function. IT DOES NOT WORK WITH CORDED HEADPHONES WITH A VOLUME UP/DOWN BUTTON!!! So no apple headphones. I picked up a pair of in ear Sony headphones that work with it. You typically mount it on the side chin straps of the helmet, but a sticky tab is provided for a full face helmet. The clip would work on a backpack strap as well if you don't wear a helmet. To get the most out of it; play music, answer phone calls, adjust the volume levels, etc., you need to pair it with your phone & the app. If you have more than one, I'd suggest pairing & updating with each persons phone so that you don't end up having issues figuring out which unit is paired with your own phone. Once paired, it's really great to listen to music in the background of the entire conversation. Your own music only plays for your unit, not everyone else's. Limits: While skiing, having a hill or mountain blocking caused the units to cut in & out at about a 1/2 mile. If there was someone with another unit between, it helped add strength & distance to the connection. There were no issues with trees, it was really just limited by piles of earth. One annoying thing is the length of the announcement when 'group connection is lost'. If you're apart from your group, but just on the edge of it, you'll jump in & out of the connection, & you'll keep getting announcements. I also wish it worked with apple headphones. One last thing is the delay. It's not an issue if you're away from each other, but riding up the chairlift you hear yourself talk back to you because you get picked up by other mics & you hear the person twice (like an echo) because you hear their voice direct, then the transmitted voice. Not a big issue, easy to just mute your mic or mute the conversation, but something you might not expect. I'm seeing another unit advertised at a much cheaper price point, but it's still in the kickstarter phase so who knows if that gets off the ground. The cardo is ready to ship & it works. I really like using it & it's going to be Christmas/birthday gifts for the rest of the family that skis & boards. I highly recommend these, but your milage may vary depending on the company you keep.
