NOW! This is something we can get quite excited about. Bluetooth helmet comms are becoming more and more prevalent these days, however not all of us are completely sold on the somewhat bulky external units and batteries stuck onto the sides of our helmets. Some don’t like the look, other complain of increased wind noise and other still, talk about the drag real or perceived – but at the end of the day we all look at the costs, especially us ‘Old Skool’ types
And again, the proactive bunch at Daniel Mulder Distributors have come up with a great little solution to all of the above niggles and concerns. The Lokui K10 by Midland Bluetooth Kit is a pilot intercom uniquely designed to answer phone calls hands-free, listen to music, or follow instructions from your GPS. It is universally compatible with all helmets and bluetooth devices.
You can connect the Lokui K10 to your phone or navigation device via Bluetooth. This allows you to hear announcements from your navigation system, make phone calls or listen to music. The helmet earphones are only 7mm flat, fit into any helmet and offer crystal-clear stereo sound. The integrated DSP noise filter eliminates disturbing background noise and thus improves the sound experience.
This little unit is packed with features like:
- Operating modes: Phone (phone/GPS/music)
- Up to 8 hours operating time
- Charging time approx. 2 hours
- Bluetooth 5.2 with DSP noise filter (digital signal processor)
- Stereo music with A2DP
- Web radio (via Midland Connect app)
- Voice prompts inform you about the status of the device and battery charge status
- Compatible with all helmet types
- USB-C socket for charging
It looks lekker sturdy and we really like the compact non intrusive design and its compatibility and ability to be quickly swapped between helmets. We reckon it could even work great in your dirt bike lid as well. The other really attractive feature is the price, at jus R999.00 it makes less of a dent in your wallet than most anything else on the market, and we know that Midland is a quality brand backed up by a quality importer with a long standing reputation for quality products and excellent aftermarket back-up.
