      you put a discount code that expired 2 days after the video released?

      Thanks for calling my attention to this@@blackaxeproductions. It seems your are right, I can't make it work either. Normally the code works all the time but the discount amount might vary. The Black Friday discount just expired, but there should still be a discount using the code. I will bring this to the technical department and have them fix this ASAP. I will let you know here as soon as it is working again. /Janus

      I'm wondering will there be another 25% off event in future? 😢

    Still using our pack talk from our motorcycle helmets with boom mics. Old but works great. Here to see if we should upgrade

    Hello, thank you for the information. Apologies, but two questions for you. Do you need to be connected to internet/service for the comm to work? It another device needed (e.g. Aleck Off Grid) if you require service.

    • @InspirationalSkiing
      @InspirationalSkiing  25 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you for your questions, @lismar688.
      You don't need to be connected to the internet or phone net. You don't need another device either.
      The units connects via dynamic mesh, which operates completely independant from other networks. This allows them to provide clear connection even in areas without internet or phone connection.
      However, you must have line of sight for them to work well, and the reach is around 1km/0,6 miles in most conditions, which is more than enough for most situations when you are skiing together.
      I hope this helps, and fel free to ask more questions.

    Are you using the cardo outdoor to record audio, what your kids say, while you record video on your phone?

    • @InspirationalSkiing
      @InspirationalSkiing  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks for your question, @radfordsiu.
      You can now do voice recording directly via the Cardo Connect app, because of an upgrade Cardo made, since we recorded this video.
      When we made this video, direct voice recording was not possible, but we wanted to show what it is like skiing with Packtalk Outdoor with your kids. We therefore recorded our daughters voice by putting a microphone next to a speaker on a third Packtalk unit in a bag somewhere else, so that it picked up what was said over the intercom system while we recorded video with our video camera. Then we put the video and the audio recording together afterwards in the editing process.
      That means the sound quality on Packtalk Outdoor is a bit better in reality than what you hear in the video.
      With kids there are many golden moments to be captured that way. I didn't know she was singing while skiing until I connected with her over the Packtalk intercom. That was really amazing to realise.
      I hope this helps.

    We’ve been using the Carv system for the last ski season. Does the packtalk outdoor works with Carv? Or it only streams music from your phone?

    • @InspirationalSkiing
      @InspirationalSkiing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for your question, @dps649. Yes, I use Packtalk Outdoor with Carv myself and it works perfectly. As soon as you are connected with your phone via bluetooth all sounds from your phone will play in the Cardo speakers. I hope this helps. If you have more questions just let me know, and I will be more than happy to answer. /Janus

    Hi. How is this compared to Milo? Also do you need to have the wire mic exposed? Does it make the sound better? Also, is there any feedback when you are right next to the person? Does the device auto-mute if it detects close proximity?

    • @InspirationalSkiing
      @InspirationalSkiing  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your questions, @kunalpatelfilms!
      1. I haven't tried Milo, but it also seems like a cool product with many of the same features. I looked it up and here are some things to consider. Cardo has been industry leaders for many years in the motorcycle industry, Milo has grown from winter sports and haven't been around for as long. Packtalk Outdoor has a range of 1000 m, Milo claims at least 500m, sometimes more. Both are IP67 water and dust proof. Both have noise cancellation system. Milo claims all day use, Packtalk Outdoor 10 hours of talk time and 10 days of stand by time. Both have a Mesh system. Cardo can have 15 members, Milo I don't know. There are some differences in how they can be mounted. Milo is a bit more expensive. Packtalk Outdoor seem to me to have easier navigation with the buttons and it has voice commands. There are some differences in the looks, which comes down to personal preference. I don't know about Milo, but the sound quality in Packtalk Outdoor is excellent. I haven't tried Milo so I can't really say anything about the user experience other than I love what I have tried with Packtalk Outdoor.
      2. If the wire mic gets hidden behind your jacket for example, it will affect the sound quality/connection. If you place it on your helmet strap at a free spot, it will be fine in my experience.
      3. The sound quality is very good in the wire mic, way better than a walkie talkie and even a bit better than a phone, in my opinion.
      4. If you place several Packtalks very close to each other they will create feedback noise.
      5. It does not auto mute at proximity (which could be a nice future upgrade, I will pass this on to Cardo. Thanks for your request!)
      6. I have made it a habit to mute the mic when I am getting close to other group members, so I don't see this as a major issue.
      I hope this helps, and please feel free to ask, if you have any other questions.

      @@InspirationalSkiing thank you so much for the detailed reply!! I also do like that you can integrate the cardo in your helmet. I feel like sometimes it can be hard to hear with a speaker outside with wind , etc.
      I’m assuming the mic is waterproof as well right?

    • @InspirationalSkiing
      @InspirationalSkiing  25 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@kunalpatelfilms I just saw your responses now (I don't get notifications for responses). The noise cancellation system does a really great job at removing wind noise, even though the microphone is outside of the jacket. We did a test the demonstrates this very well in the PART 2 of this review (see link the description). The microphone is not entirely water proof, but it will take some rain no problem. I just wouldn't dip it into water directly. I hope this helps. /Janus

    Can you use the music and the intercom system at the same time? Or if you are listening to music you cant talk to others?

    • @InspirationalSkiing
      @InspirationalSkiing  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your question, @joaopedrosimoes3894. If you are listening to music, you can still talk over the intercom system, no problem. In the audio settings under volume levels you can easily set and adjust the music/intercom volume ratio to you own preference. I hope this helps, and please let me know if you have more questions. /Janus
