I have received comments from as far afield as Manchester that I have not posted anything on our blog recently. I shall make amends and start now with a brief summary of what is occurring.
The Olympics have been a important feature of April and May orders. We were very pleased to receive an order from London 2012 for 68 MkII
Voicevests (shown below).The Voicevests were delivered to the Venues Team for May 2nd and are already in use. Father and son were in over most of the May Day bank holiday charging and testing all the Voicevests.
The Voicevest has been popular with the train operating companies at key mainline stations (Reading, Bristol and Cardiff for example) during large events. They can also be seen previously in operation on The London Marathon and International Test matches in the UK. The Voicevest offers a portable hands free PA system for broadcasting information clearly to crowds and queues at Events. It is also used as part of Fire Evacuation Procedures in large building such as One Churchill Place, Canary Wharf.
Our second Olympic order was for a large quantity of 1 wire earpiece Police headset (BG-F-Tetra) direct to New Scotland yard for their Torch Procession Team. Yes I will be shouting Look there is one of our earpieces in shot every time I see someone running alongside the torch holder with an acoustic tube on the news. I only wish I could have put huge branded labels on them as they will no doubt be on the news around the world!
