Yeah, it would really suck to be alone on a battlefield... I’d rather have a few thousand of my closest friends heavy armed to the teeth with the latest weaponry in their arsenal at my side instead

One really Good reason to get these earphones is it frees-up the top rails for a work light or other needed stuff, because it mounts on the unused back rails, instead of the top rails.
Nerd moment time: Near-field magnetic induction means that these are working off the same principle as your induction cooktop. Aka there is a magnetic field created by the earpro and when the small inner ears are within that field they are conductive of that magnetic field. So POWER is literally flowing, wirelessly, from the batteries in the ear pro to the electronics on the inner ear pro! Me: That is some rowdy American, bald eagle, freedom screaming, capitalist-provided, wizardry powered magic crystal innovation and I need it! My bank account: "....no. NO!"
@@brandonp2824 I was worried about the same thing, the range of the field is basically within the ear cups, so I’m hoping it should be okay as far as long term health issues go.

Evan is a very good talented actor/comedian. The characters he does on here are funnier than anything I have seen on television, funnier than any of the mainstream comedians. I think we need to let little Evan out of the nest and fly and go on to be famous and make millions. Fly little Evan, fly with the eagles!
I’m glad you took the time to make this video today, not because I can afford any of the stuff mentioned but because I finally made the plunge into buying a Baofeng and starting to work on that defficient part of my system. As always awesome and funny content, Thank you for continuing this awesomeness!
They are a really great piece of kit. Situational sound and comfortability are top notch! That said, so are the ComTac 6s paired with either the arc rail adapters or the TW detachable adapters.

Shoot, move and communicate is one of the things that stuck with me after my years in the Army.. movement & communication is imperative. Love seeing this as one of the titles of an informative video
Interesting tip we received in a tac class last evening that I’ve not seen in a video before and I thought I’d share. Apparently, upwards of 90+ % of people are right handed. Most right handed shooters miss down and to their left. Therefore, as a result, when first moving off the line, always move first (and create distance depending on proximity) to YOUR left increasing the odds that the person you’re confronting (who in many cases will be untrained) will not only short circuit with their target moving, but miss you to your right and down in the process. Not sure of your thoughts, but I found this enlightening.

You need to do a detailed class on communication on WPSN. What gear you need, how to communicate, maybe even some longer range comms like HAM. T-Rex Arms did a great podcast on comms recently but they only scratched the surface.
Be advised that any ham band radio requires a federal license. Sure, you can go on line and buy a radio. But withou a license, you are ILLEGAL and other hams WILL report you.
@DraconisMarchVII yes. It's pretty wild. The only complaint I have with the ops core, is they are hard on batteries. I have to loosen my battery caps a tick just to keep them from draining them while not in use. It's almost like they don't ever turn off. I returned my first set because of it and the second set does it too. After further research it seem they all do it. I still enjoy them though.
Very nice set up. Any recommendations on something a bit more budget friendly? Something that works that ain’t going to break the bank or crap out on me. I don’t need the best of the best by any means. Just something reliable.
We've come a long way from the broken hand mike with the mre spoon taped to it and some kind of ridiculous attachment to your chin strap LOL... My first M-4 sling was 550 cord and 100mph tape. @ WPS, hate I missed y'all and one-man room-clearing here in Nashville today.
I’m doing lots of mandatory overtime right now. Starts to get old... until I find more gear. Then I get motivated. I just ordered a pair of these puppies. My coworkers wonder why I’m so happy for the overtime. Lol
For the Press To Talk (PTT), if you want to connect the Gentex Ops-Core Amp to something like a Baofeng UV-5R, this seems like a good PTT that can interface between them, opting for the "U174 Mono Binaural Downlead" from the Amp, as from what I can tell you want the U174 of the AMP to connect to the U94 of the PTT with the other end of the PTT being "Kenwood" for the UV-5R (or similar): www.disco32.com/products/nexus-u-94-a-ptt-for-kenwood-2-pin-amplified-for-civilian-radios
And wear different headgear. I ran a headset under my issued helmet when running ranges. It was REALLY nice to be able to run the same headset under my ACH, over a patrol cap, or by itself. Easier on/off than ear plugs too.
I can't tell you how many U-94 push to talk cables I have repaired in the Navy. If you buy one, they are easy to repair but break easy if you thrash it about.
*watching the whole video, waiting for the price tag* *sees the price tag* "yep, that's what I expected" *looks at my old-school MSA dual-comms headset that doesn't work anymore* *sad face emoji for no longer having access to military supply system*
TheProfit MoeHamHead If you don’t want to shell out for the SOTR, check out the GVS Elipse P100 Half Mask Respirator. Comfortable and like the SOTR it doesn’t get in the way of shooting. Also... 1/4 the price. NIOSH, OSHA, and MSHA approved. Most importantly, filters that lead in the air if you’re shooting suppressed. Filters are cheap and easy to breathe. Looks way cooler than the 3M style dual cans.
If you attend the really large Ham Radio "Hamfests" you can find a wide assortment of surplus military headsets and parts. There are individuals who have been buying surplus goods from the government for years and many attend the major events. It also helps to be an electronics hobbiest ( or Makers as they are called today ) you would be surprised at how easy it is to repair your non working equipment!
Love the review, seriously. Do you or anyone you know have experience with the Comtac VI Defenders? The only reason the Comtacs look more appealing than the AMPs for me is the Comtac VI's are $500 cheaper than the AMPs, and Peltor states there have been some drastic improvements that make the Comtac VI's a rival to the AMP.
For all of us ballin on a budget: HHV and EarMor MK32 milpro combo. Pretty much the same capability, but without the HOLY F*****G S**T price tag. NVGs still absurdly expensive though. There is however an instructional vid here on the RUclipss that shows how to build a gen3 monocular for around $700(green phosphore). It's gonna be Alibaba special but it'll get you in the game.
A few words about "directional sound" and "identifying the source of sound" that can be found around the internet. I carried out an experiment where a blindfolded individual was subjected to sounds coming from 12 different directions (1 o'clock, 2 o'clock, and so on). This was repeated under two different head positions: facing forward and looking downwards. The experiment was conducted in three different setups: using Peltor SportTac, Ops-Core AMP, and without any hearing protection. The participant was required to determine the direction of the incoming sound. The variations from all 12 positions were summed and analyzed. Both Peltor SportTac and Ops-Core AMP yielded similar results. I took into account two different scores - one including the 12 and 6 o'clock positions and the other excluding these. The reason? When using hearing protection, distinguishing between the 12 and 6 o'clock positions is a guessing game rather than certainty. This seems logical as both microphones in each ear cup receive the sound at the exact same moment. Without hearing protection, the situation differs because apart from distance variations, our bodies also utilize the shape of our ears to differentiate between various sound directions. Without any hearing protection, the individual was able to easily identify the direction from which the sound originated. Don't get me wrong, Ops-Core AMPs are fantastic hearing protectors with no wires flying around. They're uniquely versatile, effortlessly transitioning between a headband and a helmet. The sound quality is fantastic, and the NFMI earplugs are great. Many elements are remarkably well-designed. But whether it's worth the considerable investment is your call. I initially thought it was worth it, so I purchased them. However, I decided to return them because I found them less comfortable than the SportTacs with gel inserts, especially given the many hours I spend using hearing protection. Moreover, the much-touted "directional sound" feature turned out to be more hype than reality based on my tests.
Could you give us an updated video on your favorite holster, carry gun(and accessories), Rifle setup. I just wonder if your favorite holster, handgun accessories, etc have changed in 2020.
Fact: You wont need ear pro if you shoot long enough without them.
that is indeed a scientific fact

The participant was required to determine the direction of the incoming sound. The variations from all 12 positions were summed and analyzed. Both Peltor SportTac and Ops-Core AMP yielded similar results. I took into account two different scores - one including the 12 and 6 o'clock positions and the other excluding these. The reason? When using hearing protection, distinguishing between the 12 and 6 o'clock positions is a guessing game rather than certainty. This seems logical as both microphones in each ear cup receive the sound at the exact same moment.
Without hearing protection, the situation differs because apart from distance variations, our bodies also utilize the shape of our ears to differentiate between various sound directions. Without any hearing protection, the individual was able to easily identify the direction from which the sound originated.
Don't get me wrong, Ops-Core AMPs are fantastic hearing protectors with no wires flying around. They're uniquely versatile, effortlessly transitioning between a headband and a helmet. The sound quality is fantastic, and the NFMI earplugs are great. Many elements are remarkably well-designed.
But whether it's worth the considerable investment is your call. I initially thought it was worth it, so I purchased them. However, I decided to return them because I found them less comfortable than the SportTacs with gel inserts, especially given the many hours I spend using hearing protection. Moreover, the much-touted "directional sound" feature turned out to be more hype than reality based on my tests.
God as a civ this is something I just can't justify, but I want so bad.
Could you give us an updated video on your favorite holster, carry gun(and accessories), Rifle setup. I just wonder if your favorite holster, handgun accessories, etc have changed in 2020.

From civilian standpoint without any buddies to talk to, what purpose is it have a radio on kit?
