How far can you talk from for the microphone to pick up your voice for the calling function ? And can the battery be replaced ?

Hi Framroz, there is no specific range for the built-in mic to work properly. Just make sure to be near the mic when receiving party is not hearing you. The built-in battery is not user replaceable. -Vincent

You can make and receive calls without the power supply plugged in. The screen will not light up, so caller ID will not work. Not sure about some other functions.

Hello, talk time is about 6-7 hours. On & off of conversations. I've talk 2-3 hours straight and with a "full charge" battery it still has battery life. Just about a 1/4 % been used. I hope this answer ur question. L. Wise

That I do not know brother. I didn't know you could change the battery. This is a great item for what I use it for. I keep it plugged in to the computer so it will have a full charge. Also I believe this to be a disposable recording device. Meaning that when it's battery life is over, I throw it away. If you figure our that you can actually change the battery please let me know as I would like to continue up using this for as long as possible. Thank you brother and may you be very Blessed today and all the days to come.Your Brother in ChristPastor Ron. .

You can press the button on the headset to answer the call ,but the call gets routed from the phone to the headset. So you need it nearby .

I think that they would function using a computer based phone system. The microphone sounds good and would probably work from a quality standpoint. The only real consideration is comfort for a call center representative. I have no problems with 2 hours of use, but I would imagine that they might get uncomfortable after a full day of use.

I use it in a courtroom and it picks up people's voices from a good distance. I'm not a good judge of distance but I would say at least 15 feet away. Hope that helps. I have had many microphones and this has performed the best by far.

Really, Rebecca, I wouldn't suggest purchasing this. We had our first one, and the display stopped working very early on, so I thought maybe the battery was bad. When I went to try to change it, there was a mini spark or something shorted. I called the company and sent it in after which they did replace it at no charge. However, we never found it precise in terms of being able to determine sound levels. We used it for voice, and it just went all over the place with no ability to control it in any way. Sorry to sound so negative, but that's what happened to us. I think it would probably measure levels but not with any great precision. Really, Rebecca, I wouldn't suggest purchasing this.

if you mean can you use this microphone to make calls with your computer, yes you can. Do you mean can you use it connected to a telephone?

I bet we'll have no choice but to replace the whole headset. I've been using my 3 headsets about 9 months now. No issues with battery life & charging

None,it doesn't work that way all calls go through your Caller ID and Answering Machine.As two other people have commented on this,i couldn't have said it better myself,if you buy it you won't believe the quiet you'll get from it.I'm still very happy with mine,this was a wise investment on my part.

It is horribly strident I know,The only way to stop the noise is to put back the thin nail inside the hole. Good luck. If you are under a real attack and you have to run, it will probably ring a long time :-)Regarding the battery I do not know. I did not use the device in emergency for 2 years, but I tested it 2 days ago and it worked perfectly.

I think the question you asking is; can you activate or deactivate functions on the device? Other than answering or hanging up, I am not sure, but answering and hanging up is quite easy. You can also close the mic to reserve battery. The other nice thing is that the phone power cable also charges this device assuming you are not using an iphone cable.

hi amy...the microphone is excellent when you turn it on it loudly states "power on battery hi then says connected" when fully charged. battery life is long and can be very easily turned on/off when not using for the moment. the clarity on both ends are excellent.....IT IS ALSO VERY LITE WEIGHT YOU MIGHT FORGET YOU HAVE IT ON..IT DOESNT INTERFERE WITH DRIVING.

Yes - if nothing is said for approx 3 min. The system will go to standby - in order to activate the system again to communicate with my passenger - I will blow into the microphone & this will activate the system - this saves the charge on the battery

I haven't had any problems with my voice recognition. As for the battery, I keep my device plugged up constantly especially when doing updates. The times when I have unplugged the device and used it sole relying on the battery, I have noticed that it will only last a short time, I say between 35 and 50 mins. before the device acknowledges low battery. Other than that, make sure you keep it in a cool place as possible during the hot months of the year.
