From: Amazon Posted: Sep 02, 2008 Type: User Review OK but has issues

The amplifier definitely works well to amplify the incoming callers voice - however the the caller hears a very bad echo repeating back what they said -- have had to switch it off to hold a conversation.

From: Amazon Posted: Jun 03, 2008 Type: User Review Batteries expire almost immediately

Because the product is touted as being "voice activated", I assumed that meant it would drain the batteries only when actually being used. But after my first conversation using the device, I disconnected it from the phone and from the headset, and...

From: Amazon Posted: Dec 18, 2007 Type: User Review Thank you for the opportunity to rate this product

I have found this product very dissappointing! BUT... Because I am a tecky of sorts I am not sure that it may/not be an issue of compatibility with my existing telephone headset. My current headset is not plantronics and I am yet unclear...

The high points:

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 29, 2007 Type: User Review Works fine for me

Great item. I am hearing impaired and this unit works magic. It's lightweight and very convenient to use. I have not noticed a problem with the power down feature. In practical use, it has been fine...but maybe I talk a lot to magpies. read full review | report as inappropriate

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 07, 2007 Type: User Review Simple and just as advertised

I'm a guy on the phone all day and I purchased this because in the summers there is a cooling unit running that is so loud I can't quite hear phone conversations. This unit very nicely fixes this problem. I've been using it for two weeks and to my...

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 01, 2007 Type: User Review Loud but irritating

It does a great job of amplifying two-way conversations. The problem is that it has no "off" switch--it turns itself off when it doesn't detect sound. So, if you're having a conversation with someone who is a soft speaker (the main reason I bought...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 29, 2007 Type: User Review When it works - it works great!!!

The MHA100 is small, compact and easy to use. It works great when the batteries are alive. Since they use THREE Zinc L675ZA hearing aid battereis, they have a limited life (one or two weeks max) once activated by the air. And these puppies are...

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 24, 2007 Type: User Review Impractical

An amplifier for cell and cordless phones is a great concept for noisy environments and for those hard of hearing, but due to the power conservation design of the product, it is impractical for use.

From: Amazon Posted: Jul 22, 2007 Type: User Review Plantronics outsourced a good idea into a bad product.

A 2.5 mm amplifier is a great idea. It sure beats a half dozen adapters to hook up a bigger amplifier and expand/reduce the plug size. However the drawbacks outweigh the product design.

First: Zinc/Air batteries start dying the...
