OLATHE, Kan. — Garmin announced the new dēzl Headset 110and dēzl Headset 210, high-performance wireless trucking headsets that provide a superior audio experience and all-day comfort for long-haul drivers. Available in single-ear or two-in-one convertible options, the headsets introduce a dual-color LED flashlight for hands-free convenience inside and outside the truck cab. The series also boasts enhanced Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) in the earcups and boom mic, allowing drivers to experience crystal-clear audio for phone calls and media, with superior battery life providing up to 60 hours of continuous talk time through Bluetooth technology.

“Continuing Garmin’s longstanding commitment to making over-the-road life easier, our new headsets add a useful LED flashlight, allowing drivers to illuminate surroundings in and around their cab,” said Vice President of Global Consumer Sales Dan Bartel. “The hands-free bright LED setting is great for checking around your rig or finding dropped items on your floorboard.”

So, what are the new features?

  • LED flashlight: Built into the boom mic, the flashlight can cycle through red, white and extra-bright white LEDs to conveniently illuminate the area around the rig, bringing helpful light to poorly lit parking lots or on the side of the road.
  • Active noise cancellation: Noise-canceling audio with enhanced bass performance helps quiet loud road noise while the earcup and boom mic help block out interference.
  • Longer battery life: Go the distance with up to 60 hours of continuous Bluetooth talk time between charges; perfect for full days behind the wheel.

Designed with all-day shifts in mind, the new headsets are built for maximum comfort and convenience, says Garmin. Those comfort features include:

  • Plush ear cushions and integrated side pads boast synthetic leather with memory foam to conform to the wearer.
  • Durable, corrosion-resistant material withstands a demanding work schedule and a new wishbone design provides greater comfort.
  • A reversible design allows users to wear the earcup on either side, while the boom mic can be adjusted for ideal placement.
  • Connect to two different Bluetooth sources simultaneously to stream media from one and automatically switch to accept an incoming call from a second device.
  • Stow the headset when not in use with an included storage hook.
  • Two-in-one design for the 210 model allows users to easily transition from a single-ear headset to fully immersive stereo headphones when off-duty.
