The?Buddy Phone? D2?is a digital, micro-miniature, ultrasonic transceiver allowing communication between two or more scuba divers or surface stations. Using “Digital Signal Processing” (DSP) techniques, the Buddy Phone produces uncompromising speech clarity.The?Buddy Phone? D2differs from our standard?Buddy Phone?in that it is digitally controlled and has some fantastic new features such as: a voice menu to guide you adjust your Volume, change from Channel A to Channel B, or put the Buddy Phone in a continuous voice transmission mode.

Voice Menu: When you submerge with a?D2 Buddy Phone, you will hear the voice system say?“Buddy Phone ON, frequency A (B), channel one (four), volume High (Medium, Low),”?depending on the prior dive’s settings. Changing a setting is easy and can be done while underwater. Depress the Push-to-talk switch (PTT) three times quickly and hold the third depression until you hear?”main menu -?volume, channel, continuous transmit.”?When you hear the main menu selections, simply depress the PTT to select one of the choices. The unit will make the selection and go back to the receive mode. If you don’t make a selection after the menu repeats twice, the?D2 Buddy Phone?goes out of the main selection menu and back to the receive mode (see operators manual for a more detailed explanation –?note: continuous transmit mode allows the user to talk, hands free. This was requested by many movie makers and scientists who talk on camera often).

In all, this?D2 Buddy Phone?is?State-of-the-Art?and?OTS?technology at its best.

    There’s a reason they are the industry leader used bycajecuak forces and Hollywood. Just used this in zero viz, 40 degree water filming a shipwreck documentary. It not only keeps your face warm but allowed the divers to communicate much easier and added a nice element of context to the otherwise black footage. Combined with the rail light/gopro mount it worked well. I do wish the speaker volume was a little higher through the 8mm hood, but if you control your breathing you can hear well. It’s easy to use and assemble and comes with a nice bag. The double seal worked well over my short beard and had no leaks.
