Key Features:
-
Push-to-Talk
The MK-8 communication headset feature a ceramic magnet and variable-density foamed rubber push button, providing a fully corrosion free push-to-talk switch compatible with through-water diver communication systems. The push button has been tested and shown to deliver a lifespan of over 1,000 presses, and in the event of a failure can be pulled out with pliers and easily replaced in the field for long-term reliability when you need it most.
-
Waterproof, Durable Microphone
Engineered to withstand the pressures of deep dives and harsh underwater conditions, ensuring reliable, clear sound transmission at all depths. The microphone is covered by an ePTFE membrane, letting sound and air pressure through, but keeping water out. The microphone can withstand water pressure 40m deeper than the depth its internal pressure is equalised to. e.g. if dropped into water at the surface, it will burst at 40m. If diver operates at 40m and loses their mask, the microphone will survive to 80m. -
User-Changeable microphone
The microphone is designed to be field-changeable. Simply remove the retaining O-ring, unplug the damaged microphone, and plug in a replacement. Replacement microphones available from Dive Spy retailers.. -
Stereo Speakers
High-quality audio with dual speakers for balanced sound, enhancing communication clarity between dive partners or with surface teams, and adding redundancy in the rare case of a speaker failure. -
Unique Hard-shell Speakers
Our unique speakers are entirely built from solid laser-fused nylon and hard urethane resin providing no vulnerable soft spots to damage the internal elements. They are built to withstand the inevitable knocks and bumps of commercial diving.
