$10 Bluetooth Knit Cap Provides an Alternative to Bluetooth Headsets in Winter

I’ve just come across a knit cap selling for $14.99 on DealExtreme, which looks like any knit cap except it can be charged and support Bluetooth, so it can be used as a BT headset.

Some of the main features of the cap:

• Connectivity – Bluetooth 3.0 + EDR  with up to 10 meter range
• Audio – Built-in microphone and headphones
• USB – micro USB port for charging
• Misc – 3 buttons: Volume +/-, play/pause (also used as On/Off)
• Battery – 300 mAh Li-Ion battery ; 4 hours charging time; 15 hours working time
• Dimensions – 21 cm x 21.5 cm x 2.5 cm (Knitted material)
• Weight – 71 g

It can be used for hands-free calling or listening music with any phone that support Bluetooth, and charing is done via it’s micro USB port. One DHGate shop has uploaded a video showing how it works (might be a slightly different model).

Beside DHGate and DX, the same model, or at least similar model, can be purchased for $10.99 on GeekBuying, and several Bluetooth knit caps are also listed on Aliexpress for $8 and up.
