I like it a lot, I was thinking about one of the Italian helmets with Bluetooth, but their modular stuff is too complicated.
Could you check and see how long the batteries would last listening to music?
I would also be curious if the charger, or a charger, hooks up to the bike for trips.
What did they offer for chargers.
Thanks, this is really interesting.

Mike, I will take a picture of the charger for you and post it when I get home today if you would like. It is simply a plug with a little circular stem at the end of it that plugs directly into a port located inside of the back of the helmet. It says 4 hours of talk time. I also looked into the Italian helmets but I heard it is a pain to put the thing together.
Here is a link to check out with a little more information

That's a good question Indyrider and I will check on that.

You are not using "talk time" power levels (transmitter on) when listening to music.
