Acumen Electronics/Interphone AcuCom x 2

Acumen goes Bluetooth!

For some years now we have been looking at making a good motorcycle Bluetooth intercom. No wires! Wonderful. Our own specification for a Bluetooth Intercom included;

• Waterproof
• BIG buttons so you can operate it with gloves on
• Nice helmet mount
• Unobtrusive
• On-bike charging
• Universal boom microphone headset kit
• Lo-o-o-ng talk and standby times

For various reasons it has never been at the top of the 'to-do list' but we have kept our eye on the market. Then along comes the "Cellularline Interphone" intercom product and it is very, very good. It is almost what we have made - certainly what we had specified - but with one flaw - in our book anyway!

When most people go touring on a motorcycle, they are limited in carrying capacity - so everything they can leave behind is a bonus. One of the things we don't want to carry with us is a mains charger - especially one with only a UK plug which means another adaptor for touring in Europe. We had always specified an on-bike charger to charge the Bluetooth module from the motorcycle battery. So, we are marketing the Interphone product but including an on-bike charger; all for the same price. The same as giving a free on-bike charger (£25 value).

Includes 2 of everything below;

• Bluetooth module
• Universal-fit boom microphone and slim speaker
• 2 x helmet fitting kits (1 x self adhesive, 1 x screw mount)
• Mains charger
• On-bike charger
• Instruction manual

This kit is for two people - making it a great Rider-pillion non-wire system, or Rider-to-rider (within the range limitations, or use a mobile phone). NOTE! For one person (Riderto mobile or GPS) buy the "X1", CLICK HERE.

The Bluetooth module will connect to, say, a mobile phone, GPS, or another Acucom. It can also 'toggle' between intercom and mobile-phone modes.

100% waterproof (when the microphone is connected) and with BIG buttons to operate it - you can even toggle between mobile-phone and intercom mode. With a 700 hour standby time, and 7 hour talk time, this is a seriously useful piece of kit.
