Ok ,so I know what some of you might say that I'm a bit crazy to do this and that your detecting time is your alone time. But if you are like me and you have a fiance that worries because you're out for so long or you are in high demand then this mod is for you.
So...I decided to add a motorcycle bluetooth headset into my custom built excalibur headphones. More commonly known among my friends as the "PB7's" which has now become the BT-PB7's.
This is completely seperate from the detector audio. It only connects to my cell phone and allows me to recieve calls or text messages and make them via voice command. It can also act as an intercom between units so another hunting buddy can have one to talk to.
I purchased a Buyee headset on Amazon and managed to mount the main unit on the ear cup. I pulled the cup apart and cut a new piece of plastic to mount both speakers, one on top of each other. The main BT unit is "supposed" to be waterpoof and I added to gortex to the speaker and mic to help protect against water.
Since this is experimental, its possible that it will fail over time but I think it will work for a while. Now I can stay in communication in case of an emergency or anything that comes up like checking the current price of gold!
