Tools to help truckers get their jobs done

Even the best, most proficient truck driver on the road today needs a little help from time to time, and he can get it from some of today’s top technologies.

Rand McNally ClearDryve 180

Rand McNally’s ClearDryve 180 2-In-1 Headphones/Headset converts from premium stereo headphones with active noise cancellation to a noise-canceling mono headset. The 180 features a pliable boom microphone and sound equalizer presets for optimal listening.

The ClearDryve 180 is the third in Rand McNally’s line of convertible wireless headphones developed specifically for professional drivers.

“This new ClearDryve model is the most comfortable, full-featured and flexible 2-in1 yet,” said Stephen Fletcher, chief executive officer for Rand McNally. “While our ClearDryve technology means users will experience crystal-clear calls and high-end sound, the plush, premium ear cups and high-end finishes provide superior comfort as well.”

Made To Be Heard

Incoming audio is routed through the radio’s speaker, making it easy for the driver to hear who is calling with audible caller ID. The system provides one-touch technology for hands-free safety. The Cobra iRadar app integration allows the user to receive and report police calls, road hazards and red light camera intersections from a linked community of users.

The Rewind-Say-Again feature allows the driver to replay the last 10 seconds of signals received over the airwaves and record a 10-second personal memo that can be replayed at any time. Built on Cobra’s 29 LTD Classic chassis, the 29 LX MAX features a selectable four-color LCD display in easy-to-read display in green, blue, amber and red.

Plantronics Voyager 104 Bluetooth headset

Plantronics’ Voyager 104 Bluetooth wireless over-the-head headset features 24-hour talk time and noise-canceling technology in the boom mic and comes with a windsock for drivers who need to talk in windy conditions. The Voyager’s 104 earcups and headband are made of memory foam to give drivers a comfortable headset for as long as they want to wear the device.

The headset has a Bluetooth range of up to 60 feet from its connected device, and it has the ability to be connected to two devices at the same time. In addition to answering and talking on the phone, the headset also can be used to listen to music.

The speaker on the ear has the same drivers as Plantronics’ audio headsets, so the sound quality for music remains high. It also features easy-to-use large buttons for call answering and volume controls. This is especially helpful for truckers wearing gloves.
