    I fiddled around with this forver, before looking up the items on Amazon and realizing that came with NO BATTERY, and not connectors it said it did... "1/4 in. audio, 3.5mm audio, Other." This is the worst purchased I've ever had from Best Buy, and now it's too late to return.

    Cuts down on ambient noise. Small enough to hide under lapel. Good value for the price.

    When it works it works. Had issues with dropping audio randomly. Also very bulky and uncomfortable for wearer. Could work in a pinch, but I don’t recommend just because of dropped audio.
