Default Headset Misfortunes

You're right, but mine have needed a surprising number of repairs. I'm
thinking three returns to the factory in 7 years plus two or three
replacements of the headset foam cups plus my new opportunity to replace
the battery box myself.


Which Lightspeed model do you have, Kyle?

I have a 25XL, which I just converted back to the original battery box
configuration. About a 10 minute task. The only tool requied was a
screwdriver.

Anyone want to buy the new style battery box I just removed? It has an
input for a cell phone or music. It's like new and comes with easy to
follow directions. Lightspeed gets $75 for this upgrade if you send your
headsets back to the factory. Unfortunately, the cell phone interface
causes problems with the occasional intercom system (mine, for instance).
This is a known issue according to the tech support person I spoke with. It
is a function of the unique design Lightspeed used for their interface.
Other headsets with cell/music adapters don't risk this problem.

Make offer to my e-mail address...
