What model can be disconnected from helmet instalation and removed to be used on another helmet with the same instalation? Many riders do have more then 1 helmet. I dont want to buy 2 complete sets becouse one device is on cable and can not be disconnected. I made this mistake with Interphone once. Now I set my eyes on the Interphone Active BT
Biggest question, does it go loud enough? Had four comm units in the past including high end Cardo's. ALL of the at 100 KPH plus are to low. Nothing wrong with my hearing either before someone suggests that.
Perfect installation video and product review. A good question for interphone, if you want to use the U16 for example in many helmets you do not have any availiable option. They offer a set of speakers and microphone, but what about the battery. The cable of the unit is fixed. You cannot remove it. So every time you want to move the interphone deivce you must unplug speakers, microphone and battery. Also the battery does not have velcro sticker, which means that you attact it your helmet and that's it. The set with microphone and speakers, does not have any battery case to attach to a different helmet. All seems complicated in their new device, no flexibility, no portability. I have the U16 and had Sport Interphone more than 3 years.
Have a good look at what is supplied and figure out how best to mount the unit and the battery. The unit has multiple mounting methods. But the battery has only one means, a sticky mount, and only one sticky pad is supplied. So don't get the battery mount wrong. I managed to get mine set up and mounted on the Carbon 7 helmet (BMW). I could not find a Sena that would fit. I also have Sena on my other helmets. Otherwise the BMW V3 is the only unit that fits this helmet. But it is not bluetooth or mesh compatible with other systems. So I opted for the U-Comm 16. The kitting and instructions are not as good as Sena. Here's hoping this was a good investment. Does anybody know where the online manual is located for U-Comm 16?
Seems like a good no-nonsense option which trades being feature rich for reliability and untility (how many of us use all the available features on a Sena 50s for example?) and it will play nicely and connect with all Sena units too whilst being waterproof. What's not to like? The same cannot be said of Cardo which still can't connect to Sena and vice-versa as the universal pairing options only ever treat the other intercom as a phone input, hence very limited range and poor signal.
Używam u com16. Szybko gubi zasięg nawet na mesh. Zakręt jakieś drzewa i już się nie słyszę z drugim motocyklem. Jak pomiędzy motocyklami jadą dwa samochody tez zrywa połączenia i są trzaski. Jako pojedynczy tylko do muzyki i telefonu ok. W grupie bardzo słabo . Używamy w kaskach Nolan n-105.

Już się do tego przyzwyczailiśmy i ciagle jeździmy na mesh bo jakość jest dobra a szybko tez łapie od nowa kontakt Porównania do cardo nie mam.
Great video, and very well presented! Thank you. I had no idea about MC comm’s, fitted the U-Com16 then found this video which really helped.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice vlog Tim considering upgrading my interphone sport this is swaying me. 👍

You cannot use it with different helmets. I made the mistake :(
@@j.dniotis3216 I made the same mistake once. That's why I asked. Now other people will learn on our mistakes.
Can I connect my Cardo packtalk bold to this unit?
Does the interphone ucom 8r connect to Sena 50r over Mesh 2.0?
How do you end a call
Does anyone know if the U-Com 4 connects to the Cardo?

Lots of reviews saying this system isn't all it's cracked up to be, does anyone have long term experience with it ?
Brilliant thanks 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!

Do you find this better than a Cardo top of the line unit?
They have similar features but I'm afraid I haven't used the Cardo so I can't answer that.

How did you record the audio from intercom ? 12:08
?? :) how did you connect the recorde to the other unit ?
@@casar.704 you call up your cell phone and record the audio on the cell phone
Good review - are you still using this? How's it holding up? What other makes of intercom have you been able to connect to?
Has anyone used ANY device like this in a group?
I use one with pillion/rider, and it works kind of OK (but it's a different brand).
Yep i have, Cardo with a group of 10 riders. Mesh is amazing. Only way to go for group rides.
Interphone is a brand or a protocol?
Interphone is the brand
Bluetooth 5.2 exists
But packtaclk bold is best
One Intercom To Rule Them All 😉 if we pretend CARDO does not exist🤔

Po aktualizacji coś się zmieniło? Jak to się ma do np cardo bold?

229 EUR for only 4 devices is way tooo expensive, isn't it? Sena sounds way better. Cheaper and better technical data....
The separate battery just put me off
