Cooltalk is proud to have just delivered its first batch of Extreme throat microphones to work in this very demanding situation paired with the Motorola XTNi and T5 radios.


John Barnes with UK Rigging 6 June 2008
"As a lighting technician i often have to work at height above the stage while still trying to communicate with other crew on the ground. The Cooltalk throat mic and the Motorola T5 combination has proved to be perfect for this situation. Even in the loudest of work environments we were still able to hear each other, making a very refreshing change from shouting and screaming.

Airkix News
"On the 8th March 2007 we entered the Guinness book of records with our skydivers successfully remaining airborne in freefall in our indoor wind tunnel for 1hr 23mins. We wanted to be able to communicate with our flyers inside the tunnel using two-way radios but due to the extreme 120mph + wind speed normal microphones would not work. We then looked at throat microphones with no success until we tried the CoolTalk VoiceBox throat microphone. With a little help from them were able to communicate from inside the tunnel for the first time! We are now continuing to work with Cooltalk to produce a communication solution for professional and leisure skydivers to use whilst in free fall inside the tunnel or in the open air helping with safety commands and make the experience much more enjoyable".

Tour de France 2006/7
For the 2nd year the Discovery Channel US postal team will be using VoiceBox throat microphones as the preferred method of communication as they are of course benefiting from the massive reduction of ALL background and wind noise problems.

World Service Interview
CoolTalk's Andrew Darby was interviewed on the 9th November 2004 by the BBC World Service for their programme "Go Digital" which discusses new technology in the market and that it was broadcast to an audience of up to 50 million.

Excerpt from Times Supplement section "technology in the workplace" 11th November 2004.
"Broadcasting industrial secrets to everyone in earshot is not the best way to get noticed. Cooltalk incorporates espionage gadgetry into a hands-free set that sits around the neck and translates voice vibrations into electrical impulses and then back into words using microchip technology. Used with an earpiece, it virtually eliminates background noise, allowing the wearer to be heard without raising their voice. Verdict: Be off sick and at the beach at the same time."

Excerpt from "Your old mobile is destroying the planet" by Geoffrey Lean, Environment Editor THE INDEPENDENT - October 17th 2004
"...But phone users do have something to cheer about: a new gadget to combat the curse of the noisy mobile conversation. The Cooltalk VoiceBox, a device similar to those used by security agents, is said to filter out blaring music or rattling trains using microchip technology, so that the person on the other end hears only the speaker's voice."
