Default WHIM question pertaining to Blue tooth range and the passenger.

Adding the WHIM and was wondering. The wife rides her own bike. When she's with me on mine I know it's all good. Will she be able to listen to my music or will the distance be too far when she is on hers. I know for communication we can just do what I'd have to do when pairing with my buddy who has it. But was wondering about her ability to listen to my stereo.

Thanks.

Blue Tooth is more for immediate area, I.e. on your body or in your car.
I use a Blue Tooth headset linked to my smart phone when I'm cutting the grass. The phone is in a pouch that I hang on the throttle of the yard tractor. When I get off the tractor to get a drink of water in the house, the reception starts to fail when I get to about 20 yards away.
It would be annoying to your wife to have the signal fade in and out with her receiver capturing and loosing the signal when she gets more than 20 yards from you.

The Boom manual states: 30' (approximate range).

Cool. Thanks guys. Ya I have wireless headphones for the gym. And they're good for about 30' thought these may have more power, better reception.

she can bluetooth her phone to her own headset and listen to her own music. We'll just pair up for p2p talking.
