Remote Control Command Microphone Handset for Digital Mobile Radios

Fleet Cab Remote Control Solutions

Manage your vehicle's entire mobile communication network directly from a secondary handheld station.

The Icom HM218 Command Microphone is a genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) remote control microphone handset engineered for professional land mobile radio transceivers. By connecting directly to compatible mobile bases, the Icom HM218 provides comprehensive remote access to all radio menu settings, operating parameters, and channel configurations. This advanced accessory acts as a complete secondary control head, featuring a high-resolution color LCD display that enhances visibility under both bright natural sunlight and dark ambient conditions via an integrated night mode setting.

Specially engineered for public safety command vehicles, fire apparatus, and administrative security fleets, the Icom HM218 solves the physical layout constraints found inside modern compact vehicular cabs. When space limitations require the primary mobile transceiver chassis to be mounted remotely under a seat or inside a trunk compartment, the Icom HM218 brings full tactical control directly to the operator's hand. This remote setup shields the main radio deck from accidental impacts, cabin dust accumulation, and liquid exposure while ensuring your communication interface remains within immediate reach.

To establish field deployment readiness, operators must combine the Icom HM218 with a compatible remote mounting separation kit and dedicated separation cable. The ruggedized handset housing is built to perform reliably across extreme operational temperatures ranging from -30℃ to +60℃ and carries a certified IP55 weather-resistance rating to protect against dust ingress and low-pressure water streams. It also features a powerful built-in speaker that outputs a loud, clear 1.0 watt of typical audio power to comfortably overcome heavy engine roar, road noise, and sirens.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Full Transceiver Command Control: Replicates system menus, channels, call lists, and parameter configurations directly on the high-resolution color handheld screen interface of the Icom HM218.
  • High-Output 1.0W Built-In Speaker: Delivers optimized 1.0-watt audio power output with a minimal 5% distortion profile to cut through noisy vehicular cabins.
  • IP55 Weather Resistant Protection: Enclosed in a ruggedized outer shell sealed tightly against harmful dust accumulation and low-pressure water splashes from any angle.
  • Extended Temperature Thresholds: Engineered to perform flawlessly through extreme field environments ranging from freezing cold down to -30℃ up to intense heat of +60℃.
  • Ergonomic Low-Profile Design: Features a slim 27-millimeter depth profile that sits comfortably in the operator's hand for quick and effortless multi-shift deployment.

Worked well near the equator
Style: SPF 50
I bought this product because I was going to be in the field for a month, outside, every day, all day, in Tanzania at high altitude. A severe sunburn would be hard to treat in the remote area we were in, but also I am very careful about protecting my skin from aging. I had to have mineral based sunscreen because as a whitewater kayaker I know it’s the only truly water resistant kind and it was going to be sweaty. And since I knew I was going to be putting it on every day, and we didn’t have running water in the field (bucket showers only) I didn’t want it to feel gross. (I really wanted to try the spray but I didn’t want to put anything pressurized in my luggage.) And I had already discovered the Coola face sunscreen (30spf version) which had impressed me with how silky smooth and not greasy it is. Now this IS greasier because it is a higher SPF. BUT I think this product is as good as you’re going to get with the protection you’re getting. Like I said, I’m a white water tiger, so I have used a LOT of mineral sunscreens. This was hands down the most comfortable one I’ve used. And it was effective. I didn’t burn once—only time I did burn was when I forgot to put it on one day toward the end of the trip, when we were out for just a couple hours—and I got the first 2nd degree burn I’ve ever had in my life. That was what this stuff had protected me from, all day every day, the entire trip. I did tan a little but I think that was mostly from the few times I was not covered during short bouts or it was cloudy. For my face I used the Coola 50spf face product.

Love this stuff!
Style: SPF 50
I use this every day and I love how it is frangrance free and creamy. I have a very fair complexion and I will say it leaves a slight white cast but it doesn’t bother me because it almost makes my fairness more creamy looking. My skin texture has improved since wearing it daily and no allergies from it. I highly recommend especially if you have fairer skin otherwise it may leave a cast .

Excellent mineral sunscreen with minimal white cast.
Style: SPF 50
This is one of the healthier sunscreens I’ve found so far. You’re not likely going to find a mineral sunscreen that doesn’t leave some white cast. However, this one rubs in pretty good with minimal cast. You can dab on and rub in fairly easily… as long as you don’t use too much the white cast should be minimal. I am not sure how well this would work on darker skin tones. My arms are a medium skin tone… my legs are more of a light-medium tone. I prefer mineral sunscreens, and this is the best one I found so far and compatible to Supergoop mineral play. If you liked that one, you would likely enjoy this Coola one too.

Would not recommend
Style: SPF 50
I literally never write reviews but felt compelled to write one for this sunscreen because I was very caught off guard by all the positive reviews. This sunscreen leaves the most insane white sheen that never soaks in and gets on EVERYTHING. I put this on and drove to the beach and had sunscreen on my car seat, the steering wheel, the center console, the door, EVERYWHERE! It took forever to clean up and was such a hassle and that was after having let the sunscreen soak into my skin for an hour. Also the sunscreen is really thick and difficult to spread and makes you look ghostly white. Plus, the sunscreen has a really odd odor that reminded me of play dough? That might not be a negative thing for everyone but I found it unpleasant. There are definitely better mineral sunscreens out there. For the price I expected a much better product.

Sticky and white
Style: SPF 50
The sunscreen has a very sticky and thick texture. It will keep you from getting sunburnt, but it will also leave you with a white color.
