Sena Spider ST1 Motorcycle Mesh Communication System with HD Speakers, Dual Pack (Discontinued)

Looovee

This upgrade is great, very clear

I'm not a huge fan of the controls, but for mesh on the Sena network, and Bluetooth music and phone calls, this unit is hard to beat for the price. I wish Sena and Cardo would get on the same Mesh page, but until then, pick a mesh network most of your riding buds are on. This unit accomplishes that on a budget.

Update (1 week later): Most of the issues are resolved by firmware update. If you get this unit, first thing to do is to update the firmware. Its a clunky process, need to be done on a PC, but once you do there's a long list of fixes and improvements that you receive.Group mesh works as expected now. Turning off the unit and turning back on resumes connection to last known group, it starts in group mesh instead of open mesh.I opened support ticket via their website and support has not provided any help so far in 1 week. I was pretty annoyed by all this and would've sent back the unit. But I got it at a really smoking deal on prime day, so I'm keeping it. Overall decent unit, just wish I didnt have to jump through these hoop.2nd update on support:Sena support experience has been dismal. Its Email support, I could not find a number to call. After 7-8 days of back and forth, all I got from them was instructions to do firmware update and how to reset the unit. Pretty useless support if you ask me. For a lifestyle product with a high price tag, I found this disappointing.Original Review:I used this on a long distance tour, the group uses group mesh, everyone else has 50s. The problem is everytime we stopped for breaks (lunch, coffee etc), if I turned it off, it would forget the group mesh.At the end of break, when everyone started their sena, this one starts in open mesh and does not join the group it was part of. Everyone else with 50s is uo and running. But this unit needs to be manually paired each time.My work around was to keep the thing running, and connect to battery bank to charge. This is not ideal but that was the least annoying way to keep using it.The buttons are finnicky. Long press to mute mic. But if you accidently short pressed, it would turn off mesh, abd now you're disconnected from your group. Only way to jojn your group, is to stop and someone has to pair you in.I was extremely frustrated by the unit. But when it worked, it worked well.People also complained my mic was terrible. Not sure what thats about. Still looking into these issues. If I cant find a resolution, this has to go back.

I was surprised it exceeded my expectations!Easy to installEasy to set upFantastic rangeThis is better than most of the similar product in the market and our group highly endorse Sena Mesh technology.

I really wanted to like these. We tried the RT1 and the ST1. I was excited about them. I went through every setting, updated firmware and tried all the modes.The range is terrible. We were losing signal standing 100 feet apart. Constantly dropped people from the conversation and the noise cancelation is so over powered you uave to yell into the mic. The smh10 has better range and connectivity, just without the mesh.Come on sena, do better. Returned both dual packs for a refund.

Great product at a great price. I got the dual pack on prime day. Makes my rides with my son more fun and safer

Joining a mesh group is so easy. Battery life is outstanding. The Spider ST1 connects to my phone and motorcycle with ease and works perfectly. I wish it was backward-compatible with the older Bluetooth versions, but I knew it wouldn't be when I bought it, so that won't affect my rating. The only problem I have with it is remembering some of the button combinations for less-used funtionality.

Me gustó mucho la calidad y el audio, se escucha muy bien incluso en velocidades de 120 a 140 km/h

Je les utilise en motoneige et en spyder tres bonne portée surtout en groupe mesh

Bin kein Freund von Helmsprechanlagen, da ich auf dem Mopped abschalten möchte. Habe mir das Set gekauft, weil meine Tochter seit diesem Jahr mitfährt. Einbau in die Helme problemlos und nach 20 Minuten erledigt. Meine Halterung habe ich geklemmt, die meiner Tochter am kleineren Helm mit beigefügtem Klebepad geklebt. Kommunikation ist ein wenig zeitverzögert, aber das ist im Toleranzbereich und manchmal ist es auch besser, wenn man vor dem Antworten eine kleine Pause macht… Ansonsten loud and clear, auch bei höheren Geschwindigkeiten (hinter der Scheibe) und auch bei geöffnetem Helm. Bin zufrieden.

This product works well, but only after weeks of fine tuning. My wife and I figured them out on a cross country ride and they almost got thrown on the side of the highway several times. I used to have the sm5 and it worked great right out of the box. I don't know why they changed everything.
