3 months ago, I wrote a quick post about how impressed I was with the CAP700 walkie talkie. Since then, we’ve been through two projects, and this radio is still one of the best tools on my belt.
Here’s how it’s held up:
AI noise cancellation? Still rock solid.
From saws and generators to pouring rain, I can always hear my crew without yelling twice.
Takes a beating.
Dropped it from a lift. Covered it in dust. Used it in the cold and heat. It just works.
Battery’s reliable.
Charges overnight, runs all day—even on overtime jobs. No mid-shift charging drama.
Easy for new guys.
We’ve brought in temps and subs. Setup takes 30 seconds. They’re on comms right away.
No babying needed.
We don’t tape it, case it, or worry about it. It rides in tool bags, gets tossed on benches, and still performs.
If you’re looking for a radio you can hand to your team and forget about, the CAP700 is it. It’s not flashy. It’s not fragile. It just works—and that’s all we need.
