Recently many customers who bought our Retevis ETK001 model throat mic met these problems:
- The earpiece works, but the mic will not work. The button to activate works.
- The microphone produces a muffled voice sound.
- I can hear those speaking to me clearly but coming from my end, always sounding muffled or distant
- It doesn't work at all. When connected to the radio it won't transmit voice, only a high-pitched whine. Tested against 3 separate radios, all of which work.
- Doesn't fit around the neck
- Much smaller than described. Barely fit mid-teen male, way too small for an adult male.
- The device seems to be made for people with very small necks. I have a thick neck so it barely went halfway around my neck
- After about a month of use. Its sound got so low I could not make out what my team was saying I do not recommend it if needed in an extreme situation.
There are three types of bone conduction two-way radio audio accessories according to the vibration part, throat mic, ear bone earpiece, temple, or skull headset.
The working principle of the throat microphone is to transmit sound by transducer sensing the vibration of the vocal cord, so the transducer of the throat mic must be close to the larynx, more closer to it, the sound will be louder, or there will be no sound. The point is that for a different person, the size of the neck may be different, if you are slim, the loop may be loose for your neck, if you are overweight, it may be tight or the transducer can't reach your larynx, as a result, you will meet problems listed above, and effect communication efficiency.
