Hi All,

My cell phone has a 3.5 mm jack that I use
for headset in my car. I have been using
headsets that requires a 2.5 mm to 3.5 mm
adapters, but the adapters a junk and
wear out in six months. It is time I got
a straight 3.5 mm unit.

I have tried a "Jabra Evolve 30 II" but
the microphone did not work.

You guys have any favorite?

-T

the reviews on amazon are such paid for junk I
can not trust them anymore

We have had good luck for years with Plantronics wired headsets.
My employer buys them in bulk, both 3.5mm and usb types.
I don't know what the newest model number is.
I started using 3.5mm wired earbuds a few years ago due to weight and
ease of attaching them to my ear(s). Sometimes I wear only one if I'm
in a dangerous environment. No BlueTeeth for me... I don't need mini
microwave oven(s) stuck in my ear(s) all day plus another more powerful
one in a pocket.
