RV Headsets
Recommended by Lazydays Driving Instructor Barney Alexander
RV Headsets
www.rvheadsets.com
Lazydays Senior Driving Instructor Barney Alexander recommends RV Headsets as a superior means for spotter and driver to communicate when parking an RV. Powered by 9-volt batteries, these aviation style headsets allow for the spotter’s hands to be free to communicate with signals while the driver is able to keep both hands on the wheel. Unlike two-way radios, the RV Headsets do not have push-to-talk buttons. So go ahead and interrupt...especially if your driver is about to back into something.

I took Barney s course nine years ago and it was great. I was recently at Lazy Days and sat in on his class room section for a refresser!! Wow did I learn some things. He now uses these dots and I can t waite to try the method. He s a great teacher

My wife and I have had the RV head sets for about a year now, and we love them. Before we use to use a set of walk abouts, the 20 mile ones and the batteries always dead. We made a trip to Alaska and campers wondered what we had, they loved them also

The headsets are great and my wife and I can now communicate without yelling. We often get an AM radio station on the headset and it is bothersome. Any way to eliminate it?

Terry in Hdson Fl/. I did not see your comment until now. I have my million miles in and still drive tractor-trailer to help family and friends. The head set was to help my wife with my hearing loss. Put your brain in gear before mouth in motion.

Not all cell phones can be used that way, & they require you to hold onto them the head sets are a great way to communicate and leaves both hands free for signals. I back up/park a tractor & 53 box daily, these would make even my job easier.

Why not use cell phones? A lot cheaper.

My husbandand I took the RV Driver Confidence Course with Barney Alexander at Lazydays. I cannot thank Barney enough for introucing the RV headsets to us. We absolutely love them...it was pleasure, instead of a struggle, parking the RV. Thank you.

SCOTT, I CAN HANDLE ANYTHING FROM 1/4 JEEP T A 67 TON TANK CARRIER. HERDING A A MOTOR HOME IS LIKE CHILD S PLAY FOR ME. BUT, EVERY BIT OF HELP I CAN GET I USE . THERE ARE THINGS CALLED BLIND SPOTS THAT EVEN A MIRROR OR CAMERA CAN T SPOT.
