Today’s drive-thru headsets offer a variety of features that make them durable and easy to use. But if you’re working with a headset system that’s more than a few years old, you may be putting up with outdated features that can increase downtime and drive-thru parts repair costs.

Wired headbands.

Twisting or mishandling wired headbands can easily cause the wire to break, which cuts off the power and causes communications to be lost.  Going wireless will save you time and money.

Moving parts.

Older headsets include buttons, springs mechanical switches and other moving parts that can easily clogged with dirt, grime, grease and debris. Moving parts also tend to wear out faster than parts, requiring more frequent repair or replacement.

Cheap plastic frames.

Plastic headset frames may be light, but they break easily. Using headsets made with advanced materials that combine the strength of steel with the lighter weight of plastic will help avoid downtime due to breakage.

No battery diagnostics.

Replacing drive-thru headset batteries during busy dayparts can slow down service times.  Today’s newer headsets include built-in battery diagnostics that let you know when batteries need to be charged or replaced before they run down.
