Product Overview
The TOA ER-2230W is a 30 W rated shoulder-held megaphone with a detachable handheld microphone and built-in whistle signal, engineered for high-volume emergency communication, field operations, and crowd management over distances up to 800 m (voice) and 1,000 m (whistle). Featuring a polyimide diaphragm and optional stand-mount capability, the ER-2230W is a professional-grade portable public address solution for outdoor command posts, public safety, emergency management, and event operations.
Product Description
The ER-2230W operates on 10 × D-cell batteries for approximately 17 hours of continuous use, eliminating dependency on AC power in the field. The detachable handheld microphone includes its own volume control and on/off switch, providing flexible operator ergonomics for shoulder-carry use. Auxiliary input and external microphone input (each with volume control) accommodate additional audio sources — such as a radio receiver or alert tone player. A DC power input allows operation from a vehicle battery or generator when primary batteries are depleted. A battery level indicator meter provides field status monitoring. The included splash-proof cover protects against field weather conditions. The ER-2230W can be mounted to the optional ST-16A speaker stand for stationary command post deployments.
