Parrot DRIVER HEADSET

I always keep my devices charged, at least that is generally the case but the other day for some reason I had left my BT headset in the car and forgot it was there. I had driven to Maine and spent several days at my house on the lake enjoying the great spring days that we were having and didn't give a thought about where I had left my BT headset.

Now generally that would not be a problem but I had used it a lot on my way up so when it was time to return home, I saw it in the tray of the car console and said "oops". Well, it will be fine so I started the trek home and of course, it started to die before I got halfway back. I was very disappointed and somewhat ticked that now if I wanted to make a call, I had to hold my phone to my ear.

And of course, I have portable charging solutions which clearly would have worked but did I bring them on this trip?....NO! Although it was not the end of the world it certainly was an inconvenience. Too bad there are not any clear and easy solutions for keeping a BT headset charged or are there?

In fact there are and it looks like an excellent solution too! I saw this headline today and wished I had know about this solution because it would have saved me in my dilemma.

Drivers who want the confidence of knowing their Bluetooth® headset has full battery capacity when needed can rest assured with the U.S. launch of the Parrot DRIVER HEADSET

It sounded interesting so I took a quick peek and was I impressed.
