Audio Looking for BT helmet stereo

Hi --

I'm looking for a cheap bluetooth (or wired) headset that basically sticks on to the inside of the bike helmet.

Something like this --

Does anyone have any experience with these? US based purchase portals would be most preferable.

Basically, it should connect with my phone, play music. Picking calls is actually an extra.

Thanks.
 
Quite some time back I had used a one of these cheap headsets purchased from Ontherocks store. I suppose it costed about 3k. It had all the features like, calls, music and radio. Though it worked well during its life, it conked off in less than a year. Got a second one, this developed a weird buzzing noise after a while.
Finally decided a get a Sena. This has been going strong for the last 2 years.
 
I agree with Hari. I had one of the cheap Chinese BT headsets first. The audio jack caved in after a couple of months. Upgraded to a Sena SMH5 shortly afterwards and havent looked back. I think there is a cheaper model of the Sena available in India now as well if budget is your concern.

Thanks for weighing in on it! I'm planning to order 2 of the SMH5 off amazon which comes up to $186. However, the grand total is coming up to ~Rs17k!! Which is way too much for what I'm after. Amazon adds in about 4k as Import fee deposit. Is this actually required? Is it some sort of holding which will be released should it not be charged for import duty / customs? If someone could help me find a good deal for this, it'd be awesome!
