At the 2021 GIE+EXPO, Stihl introduced the Advance ProCom hearing protection, which features an innovative mesh communication system designed to communicate with up to 16 team members at a range of up to 1,900 feet in open terrain.
The headset also connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to the users’ cellphone, allowing them to make phone calls and stream their choice of sound entertainment without ever needing to remove their hearing protection. A FM radio is included for additional entertainment options.
With durability designed to withstand sweat, dirt and rain, the product provides comfortable communication; even in a loud, noisy, outdoor environment. All electronics are encapsulated and are to prevent damage from dirt and rain. Run time is typically 9-17 hours, depending on the functions used.
The Stihl ProCom App is designed to allow the user to adjust the headset settings individually to the user’s needs.
Available in two versions: Headband style and as an accessory for select Stihl helmet systems, Stihl Construction Hard Hat, Stihl Pro Mark (new version only) and the Stil Arborist Helmet. It’s available for an MSRP of $449.991
