As I was struggling in the dark, yet again, to connect my J&M headset cord to my helmet, I had a thought. Why doesn't someone make mag-connectors for these headsets, like on an Apple MacBook Pro?

Good idea, but with Bluetooth you don't need and wires. -
Interesting idea! I don't see why it wouldn't work as long as the magnet is strong enough not to come loose in crosswinds.Originally posted by Cruiseman View Post

I would bet that with mag connectors, J&M lower cables would last longer too.
Walk away from the bike with your helmet on and the mag connector would come loose before stretching the cable too far.Comment: (For off-topic replies)

Every system is good and bad, best choice is what works for you. For my situation the cable is the best, I would rather have some other system but don't want to deal with the charging, carrying batteries etc.
