If you have a Bury CC9060 and the output volume seems low, change the AUX plug on the kits ISO harness from the current 3.5mm socket to the vacant 3.5mm socket. Volume should be increased by at least two fold.

In recent years, the bluetooth market has exploded with all sorts of solutions to pair your phone with your vehicle. The most recognised of these solutions is the Parrot Bluetooth range, offering a comprehensive collection of devices suited to everybody.

Although the Parrot kits are value for money, a rival system is becoming increasingly popular and unless Parrot are careful, the Bury CC9060 may steal the number one top spot on today’s market.

The Bury CC9060 offers the user full voice activated calling, answering and phone book navigation. What this means is that the user does not have to even use the touch screen display available, as all functions can be accessed by spoken voice. With the ability to pair with up to 10 phones and store 1000 contacts on the kits internal memory, the Bury gives the Parrot Mki9200 a run for its money.

Parrot have been making bluetooth kits for years, and have gained a reputation that dwarfs all competitors. When most people think of bluetooth they will always think parrot bluetooth.

However, the latest release from the acclaimed manufacturer, has nothing to do with bluetooth technology, but it still does relate to your mobile; well if you have an iPhone at least.

There are speculations circling to why they decided to make their latest product, but all of those aside, we think they just wanted to have some fun, and if it strengthens the brands reputation at the same time, then why not.

What the brainiacs in France decided to do, was create a helicopter that could be controlled from an iPhone, and if that wasn’t cool enough, they fitted forward facing and ground facing cameras that can be viewed from the phones screen. Combined with accelerometer based controls (tilting the iPhone) and a clever autopilot program, the helicopter can be flown with pinpoint accuracy by the most novice of pilots.

The AR Drone, which the helicopter is known by, uses wifi technology to connect to your iPhone, and because of this, it can also connect to an iTouch or iPad. Using a high output Li Poly battery you get up to 15 minutes fly time, which is more than enough time to exhaust your mind keeping the agile “eye in the sky” away from obstacles. The best is still to come however.

So you have a helicopter that flies by wifi from your mobile, how about you send it into battle with another drone controlled by your friend, shooting it down with missiles and other ordinance. Well obviously the average civilian cannot be trusted with real missiles, so its all virtual. Parrot call it augmented reality, as it combines virtual simulation and actual flight, the camera feed on the screen will show simulated target boxes and ordinance projected, along with tracking the enemy using colour recognition. The drone still flies around, so you need to ensure you don’t crash, unless you are out off ammo and feeling a touch suicidal…

Bluetooth Car Kit Direct are giving an AR Drone away in their Christmas competition. Anyone who purchases an integrated bluetooth system from the web site from now until the 20^th of December will automatically be entered into a prize draw. The winner will be picked at random on the 21^st, and the Drone will be delivered in time for Christmas.

If you are unsure of what Bluetooth car kits are you probably will be soon. Penalties are getting much stronger for using a mobile phone when driving, in fact the punishment has doubled in the previous few years. The point of which is to impose a greater awareness and the consequences of doing so. If you are caught using your phone or another hand held device you run the risk of incurring a 6 point penalty and £60 fine, which is more than a slap on the wrists for most people.

However this is very lenient compared to the burden weighing on thousands of people’s shoulders who have to live with the knowledge they caused an accident and harmed another person or family carelessly & needlessly.

What type of person knowingly puts another persons life at risk? Well the answer is most of us. Most of the road users in the UK knowingly and openly use their mobile phone illegally when driving. In fact after reading this article, make a mental note of how many you see doing so the next time you drive. I’d be very surprised if its less than 10 every half an hour driving.

If were all honest with ourselves we’ll probably admit doing it too, the fact is its too easy & tempting to to just pick it up and chat for a few seconds. What harm can that do? We all have driving experience and can multi-task right? Wrong. Its a combination of factors that make it dangerous including reducing the physical contact with the car operating controls.

The point is that the majority of accidents where a mobile phone is the cause are avoidable, simply by not answering or making the call, however if it is a necessity the use of bluetooth car kits offer a much greater and safer and more convenient option regardless of what kit you are using. The worst bluetooth kit on the market is still safer than not using one.

This is why a lot of vehicle manufacturers are adding bluetooth as an option when purchasing the vehicle, I know Ford are offering it as a free upgrade at this point in time (in the UK). Possibly more as a selling tool rather than a moral decision, however the option is still there.

So do us all a favour, either use bluetooth car kits when you drive or don’t use your phone. Can you live with somebodies death on your conscience? I know I couldn’t.

Over the last few years, the internet has been flooded with "cheap" bluetooth kits, giving customers the opportunity to get a great bargain on the most recognised bluetooth brands on the market.

However, it is not a bargain when you look more closely at what you are actually buying. All the "cheap" kits are non UK stock, which posses several problems. The major drawback is that the Manufacturers will not cover the warranty if it is non UK stock purchased on the UK market place. Also when EU stock is used, sometimes foreign languages are preset onto the kit, so navigation is difficult and in rarer cases English is not even available as an option. Another disadvantage of buying Non UK stock is that no technical support will be given so if you have any issues with the kit you will be left to figure the resolution out for yourself. Currently it is apparent that the two leading manufacturers, Parrot bluetooth and Bury THD are mostly affected by Non UK "Grey Stock" and we would certainly advise you remain vigilant that the kits you are buying are genuine UK models.

Bluetooth Car Kit Direct is proud to announce that we only supply genuine UK bluetooth products, which means you get the Full 1 year warranty, full technical support, English speaking kits and on top of all of that, you are also covered by our 30 day money back Guarantee.

Fair enough the kits are priced higher than the Non UK units, but I think you will agree with us that it is worth the extra knowing that your bluetooth kit is covered if it fails in the future. We also ensure that all of the kits we sell, including parrot bluetooth are new, sealed units, where as a lot of retail companies sell the kits unsealed to their customers.

With superb pre-sale and post-sale customer service, I MUST say they are two of the best Bluetooth car kits producing companies out there.

If you are still thinking if you should take one or not, let me remind you that after the California enactment of the year 2006, most of the US American states are soon starting to legalize using your cell phone while driving.

There has been a lot of press recently about the use of mobile phones when we drive and the danger associated with them is obvious. However many of the general public still fail to heed warnings by the police, politicians and safety groups about the severity of offence caused and the possible outcomes that may occur. Its fair to say the media attention has highlighted the issue of phone driving and increased the public’s general awareness. However is this enough? And what else can be done to help prevent deaths on our roads by phone drivers?

The obvious answer is to not use the phone while driving, sounds easy when suggested on paper, but many campaigns from government and local authorities seem to fail. The message is probably heard loud and clear at the time, but when deciding whether or not to take the call it seems to be forgotten quickly. Does this show the awareness campaign if failing or is there a deeper rooted problem within society?

The saturation of mobile phones in the UK is increasing year upon year, this trend has lead us to believing we need our phones to feel in “contact” with our social group or families, and often we feel lost without it. I know I do. Its perhaps this feeling of urgency that encourages us to answer even when we know we shouldn’t!!! The problem stretches far and wide, Its likely that you’ll see up to or more than 30% of road users making a call, if you were to sit and count vehicles passing by on any major local road.

One way to negate the problem of phone driving isn’t to stop drivers using the phone, but to make the experience safer and more convenient for them. Its fairly obvious to me that if the campaigns aren’t working perhaps we should try a new strategy!

Bluetooth car kits may provide the answer? Bluetooth car kits pair with your mobile phone to provide a wireless connection which allows you to answer the phone if and when your driving. The bluetooth kit is safer than physically answering and holding the mobile device, allowing you to drive with both hands available.

There’s a counter argument that the act of engaging in conversation distracts the mind from that task at hand. However this is somewhat of a null point as any number of factors may cause distractions. Like talking to passengers, listening to a radio station, checking on the kids etc. Is talking on the phone via bluetooth more hazardous than talking to a friend in the passenger seat?

Ultimately the responsibility lies with the driver, its down to him/her to gauge whether they are capable of performing both acts, however its fair to say the use of bluetooth certainly increases the safety of all road users at least.
