The latest
Moto Mod to surface on Indiegogo is Linc, a “smart” walkie-talkie attachment
that will allow you to stay connected in areas with no cell coverage.
The Linc radio has a range of five miles and
supports 22 channels, SMS, GPS location sharing, and an emergency alert button
that can transmit an SOS signal. It can also communicate with two-way radios
from different manufacturers using its radio-over-IP gateway, and comes with a
1,500 mAh battery that will last 20 hours on standby.
Although it’s designed to work with the Moto Z, Linc
says the walkie-talkie can connect and work with any Bluetooth-enabled device.
Given that this is a crowdfunded device and Linc has never shipped a product,
there’s always the chance that the product may never ship or work like you
expect it to. But if you’re inclined, you can order a Linc for as low as US$ 99 on
Indiegogo.
