Materials & Construction Details

We craft each ThinkGeek Star Trek communicator from die-cast metal with a brushed metallic finish that captures the authentic look of Starfleet badges from The Next Generation era. The housing features durable ABS plastic components that protect the internal electronics while maintaining the classic arrowhead silhouette.

The magnetic attachment system uses rare-earth magnets rated for secure wear on clothing, bags, or uniforms. This construction meets FCC wireless device standards for consumer electronics, ensuring reliable performance alongside your other Star Trek collectibles.

Bluetooth Connectivity & Compatibility

Pairing Setup

Our Star Trek communicator uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology for stable connections up to 30 feet from your paired device. The initial pairing process takes under 60 seconds with any smartphone, tablet, or computer that supports standard Bluetooth audio profiles.

Device Support

This communicator badge works seamlessly with iOS 12+, Android 8+, Windows 10, and macOS devices. The built-in microphone features noise cancellation technology that filters background sounds during calls, while the speaker delivers clear audio output at volumes suitable for personal or small group conversations.

Battery Life & Charging

The internal lithium-ion battery provides up to 6 hours of active talk time or 120 hours of standby time on a single charge. We include a USB-C charging cable that connects to the discrete charging port hidden beneath the badge.

Full charging takes approximately 2 hours, while a 15-minute quick charge provides up to 1 hour of talk time. The LED status indicator shows charging progress and connection status, shifting from red during charging to blue when paired and ready for use.
