User questions & answers

Question:	So the muffs have a jack so you can listen to music or connect to a radio. Does the package come with a cord or is it a serparate buy
Answer:	Yes. If someone is taking to you, you can still hear them.
Question:	Has anyone used these for mowing the lawn? Does anyone know the size of the MP3 plugin
Answer:	My S.O. snores rather loud and I simply use ear plugs (there are actually several varieties out there that reduce 34db as well) so I can comfortably move around as needed. I wouldn't get these for sleeping.
Question:	Is there any protection if the batteries die on you in the field/range? I.E. What happens to noises above the 82dB range with no batteries
Answer:	They were very comfortable wearing them for 8-10 hrs a day for about 6 months. Around that time I noticed they started to become very uncomfortable. Turns out the bottom half of the cushions go from very soft when new to very hard due to skin oils. I found a 3M manufacturer with this explanation. Can't imagine why this sort of defect hasn't been resolved for ear muffs in general, but since I have to wear them to continue working from home with toddlers I'll just be ordering another pair and try to keep them a little cleaner I guess. Maybe that will extend their life before I have to replace them.
Question:	Will these block out a nagging wife
Answer:	Yes, greatly-muffled sound but you'll still hear, especially loud and abrasive noises. You'll still be able to hear the smoke detector going off, etc.

• The aim to design this ear protection. These are very cool-looking earmuffs, in which we use a new internal chip, after studying the current problems of earmuffs on the market in US, we improved our product. And designed with stereo sound, the sound heard through internal amplifiers is very stereo, realistic and clear, and can also identify the location of the sound. Hope we can offer all the shooting amateur perfect tactical equipment and give all tactical enthusiasts a more perfect experience.
• Paint with Japan imported painting, has better protection, can prevent damage to the surface, no fade after long time exposure under the irradiation of UV. The volume control button is designed vertically, more difficult than horizontal design, more convenient to users. Can adjust the amplification effect according to your needs, can better adapt to different occasions. Muffs are fully sealed by modeled without flue, has better noise reduction. Only the high-end earmuffs can do this.
• Use electronic compression noise reduction, noise reduction rating is 23 db, can help you lower noise exposure by 23 db when shooting or at a noise environment. Help you hear regular sound or slight sound while protecting your hearing. Most of the normal tactical noise cancelling earmuffs can do this, but ours can greatly amplify the normal sound while maintaining the same noise cancelling function. Besides, it is a difficult technique to amplify the without distortion.
• We use good chip and expensive MP3 earphone cable. When you plug in the shooting ear protection to play music, you will hear good sound quality, the sound quality may not as good as the premium music earmuffs, but compared with other electronic shooting earmuffs, our earmuffs are much better.

User questions & answers

Question:	What’s the difference between yours and normal working noise cancelling headphones
Answer:	It likely depends on how hot and for how long. I have grabbed a few hot trays with them for a short period of time and have grabbed a metal coffee roaster drum out of 450+ degree oven. They aren't as ideal as good ol' thick oven mitts and do transmit a bit of heat but certainly do the job.
Question:	What are the appropriate scenarios for these noise reduction earmuffs
Answer:	They are able to go through a standard washing machine. Mine however are used all week so I will soak them in water mixed with a little detergent to loosen up the dirt. Given them a good rinse, then toss them in the wash.
Question:	What’s the difference between yours and other shooting ear protections
Answer:	Flexible enough to allow easy finger movement, these heat gloves provide a great fit and unmatched. They are not a small fit.
Question:	What’s the difference between yours and other noise cancelling music headphones
Answer:	Yes, machine or hand wash is fine
