Abstract
A power configurable headset system may include a communication device that can be removably secured with either a first headband having an auxiliary power supply or a second headband without a power supply. The first headband may include an arcuate band having a device support at its first end, and a power booster housing at its second end for supporting a power booster that is electrically connected to the device. The power booster may be used to supplement an integrated power supply of the communication device. In the second headband the power booster housing is replaced by a pad at the second end of the arcuate band for comfortably engaging the other side of a user's head.
