Sure, I have two of them.

I bought them to serve the occasional back seaters in my Cherokee.
They have soft and comfortable ear seal muffs. There is a volume
control on each side -- nice feature. They seem to attenuate the
noise OK. But I have run into a small problem that I'm not sure is
the headset fault or not.

It seems that the person talking is having problems keeping the
squelch open. I'm not sure if its a cheap microphone in the headset
or just inexperienced users not placing the mic close enough to their
mouth. Hum..., have to test that one of these days by using the
headset myself.

But as one other person did mention, the microphone attaches with a
screwed nutcap. A 8 year old kept playing with the mic back and
forth. Luckily, I found it loose before the nutcap came off. Keep an
eye on that.

For occasional uses, they are good and cheap headsets. At sub $60
each, I was able to get these two for the same cost of anyone else's
single headset.

Hi

I'm in the market for a headset and have seen new headsets on e-bay
bearing the "Feather Lite" brand.

Does anyone have any experience with these headsets? Any opions as to
quality of build, sound etc.etc. Any relevant info appreciated.

The price is right but I want to be sure they're just junk which will
bust in a couple months.

Given I'm a still student pilot I don't want to spend too much on my
first set and then decide I want something different down the track. I
also don't want to keep using the units provided by my school - damn
cooties...
