What kind of Handsfree Bluetooth do you use in car?

[Kelpie]

Wanna consider this? LG HFB-500 Bluetooth Solar Visor Kit

The LG HFB-500 visor Bluetooth car kit has an embedded solar power system drawing from natural sun light to recharge the battery without any need to plug the unit in.

 

The HFB-500 will allow you to keep your handsfree at all times, minimising any distraction. Using Bluetooth wireless technology to connect to your mobile phone, using the HFB-500 for the first time is a pleasant experience

 

* Energy Efficient

* Noise & Echo cancellation

* Bluetooth 2.0

* Talk time: up to 16 hours

* Standby time: up to 1100 hours

 

Prices range around $150 IIRC.

I'm sketptical about solar powered gadgets. I bought some solar powered devices in the past, the latest being a solar powered phone charger, all not reliable.

 

I'm current looking Sony Erricson HCB-150, http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/a...c=en&cc=s#a ,which have the following features:

Nice but I don't use gadgets that need a ciggy lighter point. I think no privacy is ok as what I'm more concerned with is safety. Thanks.

Same here, so I gotten all my gadgets to be wired up to the car. So the moment the car is started, all these devices are also powered up and charged.

i just bought one bluetooth rear view mirror from www.budgethub.com.sg around 2 weeks ago..

 

i bought it at $143.20 after 20% discount (original $179)..i've tried it and it works well..can store up to 200 contacts and also have a ear piece for privacy call..value for money..cheaper then market price..they also sell alot of other innovative products..can go take a look..

i was actually looking at that, but one problem is due to poor sound insulation in my car, the engine sounds can be picked up very easily causing mass confusion.

 

currently using this-

 

on a nokia phone (yes it works). so far so good, battery life is very long (phone will go flat before the earpiece does). just that i realized that it is more worth it to hang up the call and talk later so its rather unused now. btw i got it free so im not sure how much it should cost.
