#1. From Contec. His inspiration came from a left over walnut! :lol
# 2. From Durrett A Klingon comm-badge.
Concept was a mix of old and new, The bit on the back is a rare earth magnet that holds it on clothing without making a hole.
From #3. Epilepticsquirel
# 4. Withdrawn at the request of NewWorld.
# 5. From NakedMoleRat
The inspiration was to make a cross between the TOS comm and the 09 movie version with the 'real world, lived in and used' feel. Look at the small display monitor under the moire ball, it is underneath the casing!
# 6. From Sporak Inspiration is as follows.
This is a chest communicator from the U.S.S. Endurance NCC-1862. The ship on the badge is a replica of the ship you serve on. The blue is for the science/medical division you work in. There would also be red and gold badges as well.
# 7. From Sulla
# 8. From TallestJawa
His inspiration is as follows.
It is my idea of a pre-TOS unit. It is a large version for extreme conditions (caves, bad atmosphere, etc.). Think of it like a phaser rifle instead of a pistol. Its features include an antenna booster and stabilization feet. I envision that it could be set up and left on a planet to use as an emergency transport enhancer.

Description of it.
It is inspired by the TOS comm. The center has a wheel that turns above and its speed is controlled by the center knob. When it's just sitting there (receive mode) the front bargraph leds run in sequence starting with the top green leds and ending at the center red. When the red button is pushed (transmit mode) these leds turn off and the top LEDs flash. The red led flickers fast, the green flashes at a medium constant flash and the blue led flashes in bursts.
