HansVader 56 Report post Posted September 3, 2017 Been a few people over on the SLD including myself that have moved from aker to transducer sound for voice and I thought I would try it on my sandy and it works great! I don't have a whole Lotta room in my bucket and the regular aker was too big to fit in my chest area so I have been keeping him in the canteen behind me on the park super hard for people to hear me. Here are used an aker 1506 and a $10 mono transducer with Bluetooth. Thought I would share Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthStevius 153 Report post Posted September 4, 2017 Nice and tidy set up with very little wiring. Love it do you get much rattling/vibration from the speaker being attached to the chest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Airborne Trooper 380 Report post Posted September 5, 2017 Add some heat shrink to your solder points. Consider putting the electronics in a zip lock bag or something too to keep it away from sweat. I snapped in a clear fabric & plastic pouch on my chest and I have my Aker 1506, power supply, receiver, and TKTalkie there just fine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HansVader 56 Report post Posted September 5, 2017 I cover the board in shrink and super 33 but love the bag idea.. maybe like a vinyl sleeve Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HansVader 56 Report post Posted October 24, 2017 Just an update - Trooped several times and this works GREAT!!! People have a much easier time hearing me, often are surprised that I talk.. One great thing that I found out, Because it vibrates the armor, making the armor a speaker , I can reach up placing my hand where the transducer is and basically mute it to talk to handlers or other troopers.

HansVader 56 Report post Posted October 10, 2018 That's actually really good!With the transducer vibrating it puts just enough fuzz in the voice with no other add on . I have been really happy with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Airborne Trooper 380 Report post Posted October 11, 2018 I like how small of a space that takes up. Me being me though, would come up with a 3D Printed case for most of those components though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HansVader 56 Report post Posted October 11, 2018 That would be awesome, that would fix the only problem I have had , I inadvertently turn up the aker at times so I tape it down. But that would protect it for sure. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dutchy 452 Report post Posted October 15, 2018 But there's no static burst, right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HansVader 56 Report post Posted October 15, 2018 Correct. I found that lots of the add on units over emphasized the burst and watching ANH it’s more of shuttle clicks imo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
