Motorcycle trip enhancement
I did a 1600 mile cycle trip to see the Fall colors in upper Michigan this year. I bought this to be able to listen to map directions and music while driving. Overall I was really happy with the headset. Installation in to my helmet went okay. There are two ways to mount the Bluetooth controller, screw/pressure fit and adhesive Velcro. The screw fit did not work on my helmet as my base was too thick. I was a little worried about using the stick on Velcro, but it worked out great. I cleaned my helmet with rubbing alcohol before applying the Velcro pad and found that it stuck really well and I found that I could remove it for charging when needed. The controls were intuitive and easy to use. The volume was plenty loud and sound quality was decent for the ride. These are not like having a Bose headphones on, but I was very happy with the sound quality for cycle riding. I did not really try to use it for phone calls while driving so I can't speak to the microphone quality. The Bluetooth paring was easy and worked well. One of the others we were driving with had a much more expensive headset and he could not get google maps through his headset. I am sure it could have been a simple issue on his side, but I did not have any of that with this headset.

Almost perfect.
This is the best low cost helmet Bluetooth device on the market. I tried 5 others and this by far, is the best. It's easy to set up and install. It's very easy to use. I ride a Harley and the engine noise is not a factor. Riding at 70 MPH on I-95 you can hear your music and talk radio. Phone calls are crystal clear, most people are amazed when I tell them I'm on a bike. Battery life is amazing. I haven't paired it with another for intercom purposes but will be doing is soon and will update. The only negative I can think of is the proprietary USN connector.

Pretty good for the price, loud
To preface, I ordered this just to listen to music from my phone while riding. I have not tested the calling, intercom, or FM radio features. It's always easier to start listing what I don't like:- Audio quality is not very good for music, but by the time you factor in wind & engine noise, I don't think any helmet speakers are going to sound all that good. But don't expect audiophile quality. At loud volumes which is often needed when riding at speed, audio is very distorted, clipping, etc. Better than nothing though!-I wish the mic was removable, or they made a different model without the mic. I did not want it and ended cutting it off, effectively ruining the comms part of the unit. Can't really just bend it out of the way or tuck it somewhere without it being annoying. It was glued in tightly thus I snipped it off-The worst is the proprietary audio and charging connector. It's 1 connector that looks like micro USB but isn't. The speakers/mic plug into it. To charge you unplug the speakers and plug in a proprietary charging cable (the other end goes into any standard USB charger). I would have MUCH rather seen a standard micro USB charging connector, and a separate 3.5mm audio jack for the speakers and mic. I'd personally pay more for a device with these features-I don't like the control behavior of the control knob. To skip forward/back tracks you quickly flick the wheel one way or another (it always returns to a center position, it's not like a volume knob you'd find in a car). To change the volume you push and hold in a particular direction. This push and hold process takes way too long, and makes it hard to finely control, like it's hard to turn it down just 1 or 2 notches. Often you end up going too loud, then too soft, then if you're lucky you'll get it just right. I would rather the volume control be the quick flicks, and track skips which are less common to do the push and hold. Sometimes you go to change volume and you don't hold the wheel long enough, so you end up skipping tracks. There's no beeps or feedback when changing volume like other bluetooth audio devices I've used.What I do like:-The big control knob and buttons are very easy to use, even with bulky gloves-It definitely gets loud, painfully so. You should have no problem with hearing it-The mounting mechanism is sturdy but easy to remove for charging-Cable lengths were just perfect, was able to route cables under helmet lining easily-The looks are good, pretty neutral and should look fine on any helmet-Came with plenty of velcro for mounting the speakers and receiver unit-The receiver unit feels solid and well made. Speaker build quality is meh

Great value
This is the first helmet bluetooth intercom I have purchased so I can't compare it to others. All I can say is I am very happy with my purchase. It was not difficult to install or set up. I did watch a few videos on YouTube which helped. To me the sound quality seems very good. For the money I think it's hard to beat. If I have any issues in the future, I will give an update.Update: I have been using this unit for a couple of weeks now and I am still very happy with this product. Also if you have to contact the company with any questions they are very responsive. Great company.10 month update. Still happy after using it for 10 months. No problems.

The mounting hardware is garbage, the unit is not.
Not hard to install, but I did need to cut my helmet to make room for the mounting clip. I just don't trust the adhesive-tape-backed mounting plates. Seems I judged that too quickly though. After 6 months of riding, the thin plastic of the mounting bracket dried out from sun exposure (it only saw daylight while I rode wearing it), became brittle, and crumbled at the stress point. It's a vice-mount. Thats an unavoidable element.All that says that they needed to make the mounting plate out of a better material.I'm literally just expoxying the FreedConn unit directly to my helmet at this point. While the controls arent great, it feels like a reliable piece that was affordable and does its job.

Really nice intercom. I installed in helmets previously wired for a tethered system. After the cats chewed through my old Autocomm wires, I decided that the old dinosaur needed to be replaced. I liked the control layout on this unit and, with a price less then $100 and favorable reviews, I went ahead with the purchase. Speakers and mic went in place of the original units, attached the intercom and charged. Bluetooth paired with my phone and mp3 player with no problem. So far everything is working great. Volume is good but at speed, wind noise will be a consideration for any unit. I wear a modular helmet so I purchased the unit with the boom mic. Would buy again.

Great Motorcycle Bluetooth Headset
Review date - May 19, 2022 ; This is my first motorcycle bluetooth headset and I shortlisted 3 brands/models (FreedConn TCOM VB, Fodsports M1-S Plus and Lexin B4FM) to select from. My primary requirement was to answer the phone calls, listen to navigational instructions through google maps, listen to the music and must be able to talk to my pillion rider while I am riding. I chose FreedConn TCOM VB twin pack over other models primarily because of the price and the functionality I needed, it fits in all of my requirements. The delivery was quick and seller is quite responsive as well - I had few questions regarding additional accessories and seller was prompt to respond.On it's performance - Though I didn't get a chance yet to test it on long rides and with pillion rider but based on the limited usage of couple of days - it's working as it is supposed to work. Installation was fairly easy and simple. I was able to make and receive phone calls, listen to music (both through phone and FM) though couldn't get "Hey Siri" to work but was able to make phone call using it's voice dial functionality and the connection was steady throughout my ride. Speaker's sound quality is clear and volume levels are good, in fact, it's very loud to me on full volume. I was using the supplied boom mic on my open face helmet and the callers were able to understand me crystal clear, infact, they didn't believe me when I told them that I'm talking while riding my motorcycle. FreedConn did a good job in cancelling wind noise.I will update my review in the coming days after testing it's other features and performance and will share my conclusion but so far I'm impressed with it's performance.
