Will this unit talk to a Chatterbox unit? My riding buddy has a Chatterbox. Thanks.

This unit uses bluetooth v3.0 and will communicate with other devices that use two way (intercom) capability utilizing v3.0 as well. Keep in mind the SMH5 will only connect to 3 remote users at one time. I have not found any definitive proof that "all v3.0" BT devices can or will communicate with "all v3.0" BT devices. My feedback is only in terms of actual expectations based on specifications of the BT v3.0 and their stated "standards".

Yes, it does. The new firmware update allows this. Read: http://www.sena.com/product/intercoms/smh5/#tab-features

yes. That is what I am doing, but on a motorcycle with girlfriend. The microphone is voice activated (VOX). They come "pre-paired" which means you wont even have to figure out how to make them connect to each other. They work right out of the box.

Larry, Depends on the frequency of the bicycle transmitter. I'll assume the bicycle transmitter is digital and I know that the HRM is analog so it's a tough call. If ithe bicycle transmitter is close to the operating frequency or it's harmonics it possibly could interfere with the HRM but, today, most transmitters operate in a very tight range. As to the comment that this HRM is not intuitive I would agree. On the bright side, I have been using it for 3 years, 3 days a week, and does what I need it for, with no problem of crosstalk with any other HRM in use at my gym.

Hi Angela. I bought (and received) 2 units. One is considered the "Master" and the second is the "slave". I imagine you could get additional "slave" units for more people connected at once. This could be used in a situation where a coach is needing to speak with several students at once (for example). My wife and I use them on our boat to communicate over the wind/engine noise and when we are out of close earshot so that we don't need to shout at each other. Actually, we can speak quite quietly and they work GREAT!

Here is a link to Midland (the horses mouth) where you should find your answer. If not then I would suggest that you contact them to put the question. https://midlandusa.com/two-way-radios/videos/#31692

No it's not going to work. This unit only works on systems that have both a matter and a slave unit... I don't know what you would use for you're application. Maybe an aftermarket stereo is better.

I can't answer that question. I always ride single up with my bluetooth paired with either the bike's audio or my Garmin. I have accidently paired to both of them at the same time, and it worked until I shut one down. The system is always easy to pair and has good audio.

That is an interesting question that I do not know the answer to. I'm sorry. The only thing I have heard slightly in that regard is this, in a magazine I was reading the person writing the story mentioned that he heard that one of the manufacturers was developing a soft wear for their Bluetooth head sets that would allow owners of any brand of Bluetooth head sets to communicate if they both did whatever set up the soft wear would require. You should check with one or all of the companies about this to see if any of them make or are working on a device to do what you want. Also, I think the new Wing is using Bluetooth. I am not sure of that at all, but you could certainly ask Honda.

Yes, if you have 2 units, you pair them with each other and just talk to each other that way. That's primarily how we use them.

Yes it does. There is a slide/clip in piece that attaches to your handlebars which the unit clips into while you're riding but can be taken out of when you're not. I take it out when I'm done to enter my stats in my computer and put it back when I go out on my next ride. It's a really nice unit.

Not sure what you are trying to do, but I would go to Sena web sight. If you're trying to get you're bike radio to transmit by Bluetooth, you will probably need to install an output jack on your system.

It doesn't work if you want to mount the sensor on the rear wheel. I just tried it and no go. My handlebar is 34" from the sensor and it's too far away (max. is 27"). I need to return the unit and exchange it for a wired one.

If you're trying to pair the headsets together to use as intercom, this particular unit is not capable of it. :( I was told by CS that you simply call the other rider's cell phone and you can connect that way. I thought that kind of defeated the purpose. They're decent units for the price, but I upgraded to SENA and not sorry.

Yes, but talking to different riders will require pushing a button to "switch" between them. If you want a "party line" where up to 4 riders can talk simultaneously, Sena has another (more expensive) product for that. I forget the model, but you can go to their website and find it. It is marketed for enduro riders.

They pair together with no problems. You can actually pair it with two different things at the same time. I pair it to my phone and then to my spouses headset so we can use the intercom . So you can listen to music on your phone or answer calls and still communicate with your passenger or another bike.

You have to push a button to transmit speech to the other receiver, unless it is on monitor mode at one end. If so, you would eat up batteries unless you get a plug in transformer for the units.

Yes. It would be awesome to communicate to another rider or passenger. You can also answer your cell phone, listen to your music from your phone or other bluetooth device, have three-way conversations, and use a bluetooth GPS unit. We use ours for communicating while riding on out motorcycles. We have had ours for a few years and really love them. Hope this is helpful.
