I do enough long trips on the bike that I wanted a way to communicate with a bluetooth device for my full face helmet, Scorpion EXO 400. After months of research I found that these are one of those products where you get what you paid for. Unfortunately for me my limited budget kept me from getting anything worth having. A buddy of mine got the Scala Rider G4 and he said he loved his because it did everything it was advertised to do. I looked at these because if I got the same thing we could communicate via bluetooth while riding. Again it wasn't quite in my price range until I found it here for an unbelievable price shipped!!!! Believe me you will not find it for less anywhere because I looked long and hard. I've used it on a couple round trips of over 250 miles and it has worked flawlessly. I did have to play with the speaker placement four different times until I found the perfect spot. Speaker placement is the key. Small movements make large differences in the sound quality. It was VERY easy to install. The printed operational directions could be better written. But honestly it is a great product for a great price. Linked to my iphone I can listen to music, make and receive phone calls and receive and send texts with just my voice! I would defiantly recommend this to someone looking for this type of product.
Yes, I recommend this product.

can the G2 be paired with the G4 and to what extent are they waterproof
If you are referring to the Q2 then yes the Q2 can be paired with the G4. I'm not familiar with a G2 model. Both units have to be on with the blue light blinking. The G4 you will have to press the A or the B button for at least six seconds until the light blinks blue and red. On the Q2 you simultaneously hold the CTRL and MC buttons until the light starts rapidly flashing red. Once they pair up both will show a solid red light for two seconds.
The G4 has a waterproof rating of IP67. Basically meaning you should be be fine caught in a solid, even heavy rainstorm put don't subject it to total submersion.
