Dect-Com system "shipped"

Today we have shipped (excuse the pun) a 4-way Peltor Dect-Com digital wireless beltpack system to a yacht racing team in Spain. We had previously sold a system to the ill fated Super Aguri Formula 1 team for their pit refuellers.
We are told the system was originally designed for troops operating outside of tanks!
But you don't have to be in the high speed worlds of F1, yacht racing or driving tanks to get the best of this system. It is ideal as a line of site system for use in theatres.
We have a 4-way system we can hire you to try, and will knock the hire cost off the bill if you then decide to buy.

FriskerPro proving popular with police

Following the Home Office Scientific Development Branch 2009 Exhibition a number of police forces are now using the FriskerPro hand or wrist worn metal detector with silent detection.
They particularly like the fact you can tuck it up your sleeve.
Others interested in the product include local councils for night clubs.
It is a really useful tool for doormen to stop knives etc. But our stocks are getting low at the current price, because of the $ exchange rate they will be going up from £120 to £142 when present stock runs out.

Showcomms at HOSDB 2009

Bruce and Duncan have been at the Home Office Scientific Development Branch 2009 Exhibition for the last couple of days exhibiting a large range of our products, especially:
  • Police and security earpieces, of which the the TC4 Covert earpiece 3-wire system for Airwave Tetra radios (Motorola MTH650, MTH800 and MTP850; Sepura SRP2000 & SRH3500 and EADS Nokia THR880i) was the most popular. The 3.5mm Jack version can be used with our own induction neck loop (and we also supply induction earpieces for use with the loop), or with an ipod style headphones to blend with the crowd (the radio is only heard in one ear, allowing the user to hear what is going on around them), or with a clear curly tube, or with a standard ear hanger.
  • Also proving popular was the FriskerPro hand or wrist worn metal detector
  • Several organisations showed interest in the VoiceVest body worn PA system for crowd control
  • Other items on show were the Peter Jones KlickFast system and our new under car inspection camera - a snip at just £780!
The show was organised by the Association of Police and Public Security Suppliers (APPSS), of which we are members, APPSS is the premier trade association for UK companies supplying products and/or services to the Police and Public Security agencies worldwide.
