Do Cord-Less Earphones Exist?

[SeniorSeeker]

Does Anyone Know If Cordless Earphones Are Available For Metal Detecting? I've Contacted Radio Shack & A Host Of Others Trying To Find Them But They Don't Seem To Exist For Metal Detecting. I Am Absolutely Amazed That Someone Hasn't Mass Produced Them For The Metal Detecting World. Surely They Would Sell?

Hmmmm I am sure I have read about them, but would worry about it causing issues while detecting. I even leave my cell in the car most times LOL.

Also Radio Shack does have a pair.

I have a bunch of links on file here they are, you should be able to find something:

My radio shack wireless headphones (33-1253) work just fine, got them on sale for $45 and are probably the best deal in wireless anywhere. Why pay $250+? John

I have the RS wireless ones. They work rather well for the money. No interference that I have ever noticed. The RS ones have worked the the X-70, MXT and Tesoro detectors.

Thank all of you for your input. It's interesting that a few of the links given here are Radio Shack because I called and talked to a manager of a local store and he told me that Radio Shack no long has "WIRELESS HEADPHONES FOR METAL DETECTORS". It's interesting also that RS does carry other wireless stereo headphones but with 1/8" jack and intended for personal electronics use - not metal detectors. As was stated on another forum, the sounds you'd expect to hear are different, which means a new learning curve. I will take my detector and some targets to the RS store and test some of their wireless units so I can hear what they sound like. It would be nice if Detector Pro would make the Grey Ghost headphones wireless. That's what I'm looking for! Guess I should have stated that in the beginning huh? Thanks again for all your help.

I have a pair of cordless eaar hones,work great, cost $4OO,00, Made for detecting.

I've been using the Radio Shack set for a couple years. Wouldn't leave home without them.

 

[John(Tx)]

they work great on my F70 and XT50. Haven't used my Troy phones since having the wireless RS headphones. Might sell the Troy headphones. HH

 

[John(Tx)]

our local manager told me the same thing 3 years ago, guess what, they do work. HH

I tried Logitec, Motorola and some others. All bluetooth units have a signal lag. But the Radio Shack 33-1253 phones work great! I'm not spending $250 for metal detecting headphones when these work fantastic. Been using them for over 2 years. You won't be sorry.

I know this is an old post but I will answer anyway,,,, I got mine from EBAY,, MAX FUN Model BT-30 around 35 dollars,, and they are great and light no weight to carry..

The White Spectrum can ship with them - when will Minelab offer a pair though.

How do they work? Dont you need power to the transmitting unit?
