Don't buy this junk.

Poor imitation of a bad PTT. Everything is fine outside, but inside the micro ptt doesn't work at all. I'm surprised Revane is letting them sell. Honestly, don't buy that crap.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Null

Great for tactical setup

Connected to my Baofeng UV-5r with no problems, but when I plugged my tactical headset into it, it didn't work. I had to open PTT to re-solder some wires to get it working. Works great now! Bonus, the clip is really strong and holds gear really well.

Pros
  • nice touch
Cons

Do not buy! Best in Portable Audio and Video

This adapter does not work as advertised with military standard u94 headsets, I rang the cable and it doesn't even connect the mic line from the headset to the radio jack. I bought two and neither one connects so I'm pretty sure it's a design flaw and not a manufacturing flaw.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Compatibility

PTT no function for CB and talkback radios

Received this product today, cannot recommend. The PTT (Push to Talk) function does not work. He does not work. Otherwise it fits my Baofeng UV-5R as described and seems strong enough so too bad it doesn't work. To clarify, it works fine when you press PTT on the radio, but I bought this so I could have my PTT in a more accessible place and not have to reach for the radio.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Appearance

Some quality problems

I bought this to use my old U10 David Clark headset with my UV-5R. The first problem is that it wasn't plugged in properly. I had sound from the microphone! After a quick soldering with a soldering iron it works great. Aside from two wires being misconnected, build quality was good. The soldering was solid, the parts appeared to be of good quality. The PTT is two-piece rather than one-piece, but is securely attached to the housing. I only gave 3 stars because I had to reassemble it. At the very

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

You MUST grind some plastic near the metal pins for this to work with the Baofeng radio. If the sound isn't loud enough and the PTT function doesn't work, the prongs are NOT deep enough in the radio and the plastic needs to be sanded down further. Once the pins are far enough away, the PTT and audio levels work perfectly. Great value for money product, works well with IRON JIA headphones https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072ZXH1KT/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_0

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Damaged

This is a great product at a great price.

This PTT has everything you need. You need to make sure the connection to the radio and headset is tight as both are very tight. If all your connections are tight, this will work just fine. This is a PTT replica designed for replica headsets, so it won't work for real steel headsets. That being said, when you run replica it works fine. I've seen some reviews saying it has a soft button, at least on mine I didn't think that was true. There was a brief pause and then a solid wall and a button…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Nothing

Make sure the plug is fully inserted even if you need to change it.

At least two reviewers have already suggested making sure the connector is FULLY inserted. This is very true. I had to shave off one side of the connector a bit to get it fully into the socket on my Baofeng UV-5R Camo. However, the connection is not always the best the first time. I have to postpone it sometimes. But once it was fully set up and connected, there were no problems. Not a perfect solution, but all similar clones I've found in this price range are the same. You can just go with…

Pros
  • U94 PTT Headset
Cons
  • Damaged

It is made from cheap U-94

So I work with planes that use higher end U-94s and the one that comes with this product really sucks. Don't get me wrong, it will work, but it seems like it could break at any moment. The PTT button is actually two parts, not one. The cables were badly soldered. But what do you expect for the price and where does it come from. If you have your own wire, you can just get a better quality U-94 and make it yourself. Make sure the black wire is connected to PTT and pin 4. Terminal 1 is the long…

Pros
  • . Fits military standard version
Cons
  • Very expensive

Wiring will need to be replaced before you can use it

I ordered two of these units, one for my setup and one to keep as a backup in the truck and I have mine decided to open both of them up and take at least an inch of each wire inside, replace the main power wire and ground wire with heavier gauge wire, solder them with acid free solder and use a little heat shrink tubing. The signal was IMMEDIATELY clearer and they survived numerous trips to the shooting range on my computer while playing as SF. After that he became 4/5 stars. All it needs is a…

Pros
  • Clear sound, powerful and durable
Cons
  • I will add later
