If you're planning on trooping in that helmet and it's a hot day, you'll be wanting to rip out that lining pretty quick. I know a guy here in FL who passed out from heat exhaustion in that thing.
I'm just saying... they are nice helmets though.

A buddy of mine recently got a Cushman and he's a bit discouraged about how it looks. I'm showing him this 'cuz it's definately inspirational!
-
A) Where is said picture?
This is not a for sale/trade thread, so it's being moved to NCO Club. -
There's a burst right after speaking. The samples on the web site need to be redone, but if you refer to the earlier post I made, there are better samples. It's pretty simply a voice amplifier with an adjustable static burst at the end of your sentence. It's not going to alter your voice.
-
Not sure of the wattage, but I will check. Also, they're looking into upping the sound output. If you're interested, get your orders in now! http://www.troopercomminterface.com/

Finally after patiently waiting for the box, I received the test type today. I found that initially, finding the sweet spot on the adjustable "static burst" know was a bit tricky. After about 15 minutes of playing with the knob, I found my sweet spot. The volume doesn't go as high as I'd like it to, but it may be because I'm using train speakers, but it's still plenty loud to be heard. If you're in a really noisy convention hall or something, it could pose a problem. Setting it up is super simple: plug in your mic, powered or non, and plug in your speakers into the mini-plug jacks. If you're using an accurately sized bucket, space can be a bit of an issue, but I've seen pictures of other test subjects with the unit inside (RT Mod). With an FX, I have some extra space.
I haven't actually been able to troop with it just yet, but for now I recorded a few sound samples.
This is a sample of my regular voice: my voice
So far, I'm pretty impressed with the quality for the price. I know there will be a bit more tweaking based on my testing and the testing of others. Stay tuned for reports from an actual troop.

I'm sure that someone might have asked this and I missed it but can this new unit work with Skullworx?
Thanks,

If the Skullworx has a mini plug for the mic and one for the speakers, then yes.

If it means walking around my neighborhood with my helmet on, talking to strangers, and getting the cops called on me, I'll do it.

No problem, gents! I can't wait to get it and test the crap out of it! I can vouch for the guy who's making it as being very reliable (he's been doing runs of coins for the Legion for quite a while), so I'm sure it'll be an awesome product.
Oh, and I'll be testing this using the Supertrooper speakers in Stomper's Hovi Mix tips! I think at this rate, I'm going to start letting people advertise on my armor.
-
I finally got word that this is now available! I will be getting a test type next week and will take sound samples for everyone to hear. I will be giving you all my honest thoughts on the product. If you want to hear some samples & pre-order now (the samples are poor quality), go to http://www.troopercomminterface.com/. "I am taking orders for 100 boxes with prepayment of $85.00 each and it will take 4-5 weeks to produce the boxes."
Again, the samples are poor but I will be recording new ones on my PC. I hope to have this done by next weekend. Sorry it's been so long, but there had been some issues with the engineers.
A couple points of interest:
- does not require a powered mic, powered and non work fine.
- the engineers have gone through extensive testing to reduce feedback as much as possible. I will be putting this to the test... big time.

I use Meguire's spray wax for my armor when I clean it. Shines up nice. Turtle Wax's spray wax works just as well.
-
Well, what he lacks in grammar, he at leasts makes up with decent customer service.
-
Nothing. Last I heard he was giving the engineers until the end of the month then he's pulling the plug on it.

Matt, thank you for taking this to PMs.
Rolf, please refrain from negotiating on items in public forums.

When sanding, use a really high grit paper. Wet sand if possible.

Kylon Fusion I hear works pretty well.
-
ABS white can actually be different shades; i.e.: one armor maker can make his armor is ABS white as well as another. You then mix and match parts, you could have a suit that doesn't quite match completely (seen this happen a couple times). You may have to try several options.

OK folks, I will answer PMS and mails tomorrow.
I hear Midol works well for PMS.

I'm not fat, I'm pleasantly plump.

What does the armor really do?
Gives you big beautifull black and blue pinch bruises everywhere
And compress the family jewels in a way that can't be healthy.

For FISD TK's call them:
Tantive Invasion Force which is FISD ANH Deployed
Cloud City Enforcers which is FISD ESD Deployed
Endor Shield Security which is FISD ROTJ Deployed
I like this, but it's pretty long. I hate the term "deployed" by itself as it's so generic. Veteran... well let's just say TK's don't exactly have a reputation to be much in the way of survivors...

Buttah Fett sent me his mini-speakers so I could install them for him.
Here's a photo of the finished Hovi's with speakers for you all to look at. I tested them with my Radio Shack amplifier and they sound pretty danged good for their size!
I installed these using a gutted Radio Shack amp and a RS mic... The pics don't do it justice and they sound really clear. They were a hit at my last troop! Awesome work, Tony!

Dag, that was a quick year. Big ups to FISD!
How do i raise my rank

Very true. One of my pet peeves is people who post just to up your post count for a meaningless title. 100 posts made in one day are sure to contain less statments of value as compared to 100 over a month.
Also, before asking questions about things, try using the "search" feature to see if there's threads already covering that subject. It's an all too common practice on just about every message board I've ever used.
