Initial impressions after my first use. I previously had Outdoor Tech Chips wireless helmet speakers which eventually quit working. The OutdoorMaster speakers seem pretty well-made, paired easily, and the buttons had a nice tactile ‘click’, so you knew if you hit them correctly with gloves on. Sound quality was decent but not exceptional, and volume was good. Better than I got with my previous speakers. The big issue for me is their auto-off power-saving feature which powers off the unit after 5 minutes of being unused. I had hoped that this feature could be deactivated, but that’s not the case. I can see a use for this feature if they had awful battery life that needed to be protected at all costs, but their marketing material suggests otherwise. They seem to have been designed by kids who think that the only reason to have speakers/mic in your helmet is to listen to music. If you have a career and/or a family, you need to have them on continually in order to be able to take phone calls or be alerted to new messages on your phone, while the phone is buried deep in your ski clothes and not accessible to use with your gloves on and while on the lift. Don’t know how they wouldn’t have thought of that. Deciding whether to return them or not…
