There is a formula for that: count chirps in 15 seconds, add 39, and that's the temperature in degrees fahrenheit, accurate to within one degree. It works, I've tried it. Which means he's gotta carry something to wam him up when he's about to go into action and needs all the sound power he can get. Furthermore, an ideal public identity, a la Clark Kent, would be a TV weather forecaster--he's his own most useful instrument.
Kenny Wong was a fitness guru and science buff who sought revenge on the crooks who ransacked his house and killed his pet cricket.
After extracting DNA from his pet cricket he concocted a serum that gave him superstrength and cricket-like abilities, such as the ability to lift 6 times his own weight and the ability to jump 20 times his own height and enhanced senses. He designed his own cricket-suit under the guise of Jade Cricket and fights crime in Chinatown.
His suit has a tactile sound control system, with each sound control unit on each wrist that controls the amplitude, volume and frequency of the chirps that emmanate from the rubbing of his titanium-steel wings. His wings also enable flight, and he can stick to walls and ceilings. He uses his sound control units as a weaopn-causing objects to implode, warping and bending objects, etc. and also uses "tabacco blasters" to dissolve objects as back-up.
