Default Re: Converts and Uconnect

Yes I did. Won it for $50 plus $10 shipping on eBay, so $60 for an earpiece that sells for $99 retail. And for once, I'm actually impressed. I tried first calling my wife with the air conditioner blowing in my face, she said she didn't hear any noise, so I turned it up full blast and she said once in a while she heard a "buffeting" sound.

So next put the top down and called her again. Again, only once in a while she heard the sound of wind buffeting. She said it was crystal clear, if maybe just a touch tinny.

So I used it on a conference call one morning on my way in to work, no one knew I was in my car!!! I love this thing!!! The earpiece, unlike the previous models that look similar, is very rubbery so it's easy to fit any size ear, any shape of head. The only critique I have is the tiny holes in the boom mike get caught, every once in a while, in my facial hair. I don't think that'll be a problem as long as your's is, but I keep like a constant 5 o'clock shadow going and it's getting caught in that once in a while. No biggie, and if that's the worst problem then I got a real winner here!

Battery time is phenomenal, I fully charged it and it lasted 5 full days, just as advertised. And when it gets low, a very soft feminine voice with a mild British accent says, "Your battery is getting low and needs to be recharged", or something similar. It shocked me the first time it did that while on a call, but the other end didn't hear it. So now I got one more voice in my head....lol
