Abstract
Headsets presented herein may include at least one earpiece having an adjustable bone conduction element and an ear bud. The location of the bone conduction element may be repositioned by sliding a slidably-coupled section to which the bone conduction element is attached. The ear bud may be disengaged without disturbing the positioning of the bone conduction element. Additionally, the earpiece may be attached to a base member via a pivoting element that is coupled to wire that retracts into the base member. The base member can be controlled by a cell phone and charge by plugging into a solar harness.

A wearable headset apparatus, including:
- a first earpiece including:
- a first ear bud that is detachably directly coupled to a first section, the first earbud including a speaker;
- a first bone conduction element coupled to a second section,
- wherein the first section is slidably coupled to the second section such that the first and second sections form an arc for positioning behind the ear and by sliding at least one of the first and second sections to cause the bone conduction element may be repositioned along the arc, and a base member that delivers audio information to the first earpiece.
