Motorcycle Bluetooth Intercom Cardo PackTalk Half Helmet Kit — Cardo SPPT0011

The Cardo PackTalk Half Helmet Kit is an audio communication solution designed to mount in half-face, ski, and other non-motorcycle helmets. It features an extra-long boom microphone to position the mic comfortably for users of open-face helmets and includes a cradle and all necessary mounting hardware. Speakers are not included, so compatible speakers must be acquired separately to complete installation.

Advantages

The extra-long boom microphone allows clear voice pickup when used with half or open-face helmets. The kit includes a mounting cradle and required hardware for straightforward installation in a variety of helmet types. The design keeps the communication module and mic close to the rider’s face for consistent audio transmission while preserving the helmet’s external profile.

Suitable for

• Riders using half-face or open-face motorcycle helmets
• Skiers or sports users who want helmet-mounted communication in non-motorcycle helmets
• Users who already have or plan to buy compatible speakers and a Cardo PackTalk communication module

When it may not be suitable

This kit does not include speakers or the Cardo communication unit itself, so it is not a complete audio system out of the box. Buyers who need an all-in-one intercom package should select a full PackTalk set that includes both speakers and the communication module. Additionally, helmets with very limited internal space or unusual interior shapes may not accommodate the mounting cradle or allow proper speaker placement.

Key specifications

• Microphone type: extra-long boom microphone for open-face helmet use
• Compatibility: designed for half-face helmets, ski helmets, and other non-motorcycle helmets
• Included items: mounting cradle and required mounting hardware
• Speakers: not included (sold separately)

How to use

Fit the mounting cradle inside the helmet following the helmet interior shape, secure it with the supplied hardware, then attach the boom microphone to the cradle so the mic can be positioned near the mouth. Install compatible speakers inside the helmet ear pockets or against the lining as recommended by the speaker manufacturer, then connect the speakers and microphone to the Cardo communication module (sold separately) according to the module’s installation guide. Test voice pickup and adjust microphone position to ensure clear communication while wearing the helmet.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify internal helmet space and lining shape to ensure the cradle and microphone will fit
• Confirm you have or will purchase compatible speakers and a Cardo communication module
• Check that the helmet model permits mounting hardware without compromising safety or fit

Usage recommendations

Use with a compatible Cardo communication unit and correctly sized speakers for best results; position the boom microphone so it is close to the mouth but does not touch the lips or chin to avoid wind noise and ensure clear audio pickup.
