A range quoted in open ground, between two units · review
Cardo Spirit review
A two-rider Bluetooth intercom published at 400 m range with 32 mm speakers, waterproof construction, over-the-air software updates and stated pairing with any brand of Bluetooth headset.
The bottom line Two riders, 400 m, updatable after purchase and stated to pair across brands. The battery figure is the line missing from an otherwise specific listing.
What the seller commits to paper
A two-way intercom for two riders at 400 m, 32 mm speakers, a waterproof construction the maker describes against rain, heat, mud, dust and snow, over-the-air software updates through its app, and universal connectivity to any other brand’s Bluetooth headset.
Cross-brand pairing is the practical claim
Two riders with units from different makers is the ordinary case, not the exception. A maker stating plainly that its unit connects to any other brand has answered the question most likely to make the purchase useless.
The rows this seller leaves empty
Battery life, and what the 400 m figure was measured against. Line of sight is the usual condition and it is the one that road geometry removes.

What riders ask about this one
Does 400 m mean I can ride 400 m apart?
It is a line-of-sight figure. Bends, buildings and traffic between two units all reduce it, and the published number is the ceiling rather than the working distance.
Why do over-the-air updates matter?
An intercom is a radio with firmware. A unit that can be updated can have a pairing bug fixed; one that cannot is finished as bought.
Who this one is for
A rider and a pillion, or two riders who always travel as a pair.
