HEARFALCOM Tactical Helmet ARC Rail Single Side Headset - U94 PTT

In this review the HEARFALCOM Tactical Helmet ARC Rail Single Side Headset is evaluated for users who need a compact, helmet-mounted communications solution. The bottom line: this headset is best for shooters, range officers, and airsoft or tactical training participants who want a single-ear contact option that mounts to ARC rails and works with Baofeng radios via the included KEN U94 PTT adapter. Its main selling point is the adjustable ARC rail bracket and reliable U94 compatibility that simplify helmet integration and radio connection.

Key Features

• ARC rail compatibility: The headset mounts directly to FAST, ACH, MICH and other helmets with ARC side rails, making it easy to add communications without drilling or straps.
• Adjustable bracket: The bracket rotates 360 degrees, flips up and down and adjusts length so users can position the microphone and ear cup precisely for comfort and clearance.
• Single-side design: The one-ear configuration keeps one ear open to ambient sound while providing clear incoming audio through the headset.
• Silicone ear cushions: Soft silicone pads offer a comfortable seal for extended wear and are simple to wipe clean after use in the field.
• KEN U94 PTT adapter included: The bundled U94 PTT adapter is compatible with Baofeng UV5R and UV82 style walkie-talkies so radios can be controlled from the helmet-mounted push to talk.

Who It's For

This headset fits users who already use helmets with ARC rails and need a streamlined, single-side headset for communication while maintaining one ear for situational awareness. It is well suited to range users, airsoft participants, tactical trainers and field teams who rely on Baofeng-style handheld radios and want a dedicated helmet PTT setup.

Users who want full stereo audio, integrated noise cancellation headsets, or those who do not have ARC rails on their helmets should look elsewhere. Likewise, those who need a wireless or multi-channel headset system will find this wired, single-side solution limited.

Pros & Cons

• Includes a KEN U94 PTT adapter for straightforward connection to Baofeng radios out of the box.

• Single-sided audio may not suit users who prefer dual-ear listening or active hearing protection integration.
