Scalable Two-Way Communications System Safely Connects Parks to People
In Howard Marsh Metropark, a visitor spots a red-winged blackbird perched in a willow tree. Instead of shouting and startling the bird, she quietly speaks into her headset, and everyone in the group—some standing over 500 feet away—hears her discovery clearly.
This seamless communication is made possible by Metroparks Toledo’s two-way communications system from TCS. Originally implemented in 2020 to safely resume outdoor programs, the system has since become an essential tool for enhancing guided tours, improving accessibility, and making park experiences more engaging for all visitors.
Nick Dian, Program Assistant at Metroparks Toledo, shares how the system has transformed their operations:
Which system is right for you?
A complimentary consult and demo is the best way to find out!
The best way to see how a two-way communication system can enhance your tours and events is to try it in your own environment.
We offer free demo kits, allowing you to test the system before making a decision. Each kit includes a variety of headsets so you can find the best fit for comfort and noise reduction.
We provide expert guidance on setup and headset selection, but ultimately, you get to choose what works best for your needs!
Do Your Batteries Need a Boost?
Our lithium-ion batteries boast an extensive shelf life, high capacity with low internal resistance, a low self-discharge rate, and reasonably short charge times. But they don't last forever. Typically, our batteries' lifespan runs?between two and four years, depending on the environment and use of the devices.
Wondering if it's time to replace your batteries??Signs of aging:
TCS is here to help! We're the best place to get your battery replacements since we can work with you to determine if the battery needs to be replaced regardless of age, plus how to properly remove and replace it. Ask about discounts on bulk purchases so you're always ready to tour!
