Need a new headset

[Raia]

Just had my second Sena 10s fall off first one I couldn’t find , second one I found right away but it was ran over before I got to it and now it doesn’t work, the clip that holds it on was missing not sure if the clip broke when riding or being run over ether way it’s a crummy design. Anyway looking for a new headset how about some recommendations.

Cardo Pactalk Bold. Waterproof! Bluetooth and mesh. Connects to phone and GPS. Voice control for volume, radio control, answering phone, Siri and google compatible

I have Cardo-pactalk bold also and like it.

I'll add my recommendation for the Cardo as well.

The cardio packtalk slim is not easily removable (i.e. doesnt clip on or off) and will not accidentally fall off.

Just bought the Cardo Packtalk Bold but only have used it for less than an hour, it was very easy to set up though and the phone call I made worked fine other that the speaker volume was low but figured out the phone volume had to be raised.

So you gonna mesh with me…..this could be dangerous

from what I have heard from several users is the cardo and sena will not hookup with each other so you might want to use what the others you ride with are using.

That is true of the mesh connectivity, however, depending on one’s skill set, a Bluetooth connection between Sena and Cardo can be achieved.
I believe that using the method of pairing a phone to Cardo unit, one can pair a Sena as a phone so that it can participate in the mesh circuit, again it’s one’s skill set. Which comes back to, get the unit your group of riders that you ride the most with use.

Sena has a universal intercom mode to allow it to connect to non Sena units. I read on here that the Cardo also has this functionality. Using the universal intercom function, I have paired my Sena 20S with all kinds of other brand headsets, including the cheap Chinese knock-offs. It works well, but has less range than when two Senas are paired together, but not so much so as to make it unusable.
