A local guy used to always have his helmet on while driving his grapple truck around town. Or at an indoor safety meeting I was at once, he had his helmet on. Supposedly people even saw him in the grocery store with signature red petzl helmet
Great point that is often overlooked!
It’s a fan.. in the picture it’s covered with a head buff , but it sets on there perfectly so it doesn’t move about at all, and my charging station is right under so it works for that cab. Mostly the other trucks we are living the struggle of finding the best snuggle spot for the ol brain bucket while not in service. Haha
I actually do that more often than not in the Peterbilt. It’s old, kinda loud, and not wired with a fancy phone/radio interface. The helmet linked to the phone lets me talk to headquarters, clients and friends alike with clarity…just one earphone on of course.
Possibly, yes. The center console in my truck is an armrest and wide storage cubby when down and a seat back when up. I use it quite a lot, so I’d have to measure if the helmet wouldn’t interfere with this. If it sits high enough, I think that solution would work. Where did you come across that thing?
Does Petzl offer a tin foil liner? Maybe there'd be a (small) market for it . . . . . ?A local guy used to always have his helmet on while driving his grapple truck around town.

Very kind! How would that mount? Did you lay that out in a previous post? Looks like a couple screws but into what? Is the interior paneling that strong?with the garage organization hangers at Menards:
Tool Shop® 6-1/2" Wall Mount Tool Hanger
The Tool Shop® Tool Hanger is quick and easy to install while saving space in small areas and adding organization to your tool assortment. Simply mount to a wall stud with the included hardware, and our tool holder will securely hold an assortment of tools and remove them from the floor.
Let me know if you want me to send you one - I cannot imagine it will cost much to mail as its light...not sure what Menards would charge for shipping. The store is a mile from my house and I'm there multiple times a week anyhow...
I have 2... 1 screwed into a hard plastic - a seat belt holder, IIRC. 1 screwed into the metal body piece (I guess that's what I'd call it) between the sheets. Used sheet metal screws for both.
The place I want to mount this might have sheet metal screws poking out through the back of the cab. I ordered a window rack before seeing your post about the offer. Let me see if that works or not and then entertain other options. Thanks again!
Thanks
