What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The Pocketalker Ultra is a pocket-sized personal amplifier that picks up sound with a microphone and sends it to a headset or earbud at a volume you can set. It has volume and tone controls, so you can shape the sound to what's easiest to hear. People use it for one-on-one conversations, TV, radio, and concerts. For TV or radio listening, the kit includes a clip to hold the microphone near the speaker and a 12-foot extension cord for the microphone cable. It comes with both a headset and a single earbud, so you can pick whichever is more comfortable, and it runs on 2 AAA batteries.
