3M WorkTunes Connect Hearing Protector with Bluetooth technology, $35 shipped on Amazon. I got some recently and really like them, makes me want to keep them on when they have music.

u/BigTrollin 路 27 pointsr/powerwashingporn

Are these it? I am looking for an alternative to my cheap ones when I mow the lawn. I know that I just turn it too loud to muffle the mower, no sound protection at all.

u/Jysttic 路 11 pointsr/Tools
u/crackofdawn 路 9 pointsr/lifehacks

Weird, my ears are what I would call average size and I have a pair of 3M dB reducing earmuffs/bluetooth headphones that I bought for like $30 or $35 on amazon and they cover my ears completely and also block out a ridiculous amount of outside sound (even with my glasses on).

Edit: These https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0723CYHPZ/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Currently $40 but pretty sure I got them on sale for $30 about a year ago.

u/aperson 路 7 pointsr/INEEEEDIT

Ones that are just Bluetooth? I don't want ones that have an am/fm radio as I don't want an antenna that gets caught on things.

Edit:

I looked on Amazon and the ones I have no longer have a 2 month delivery estimate. They're on sale too, so I ordered a backup pair.

Not sure how it is in your industry, but in mine a lot of places require rated hearing protection. I have a pair of over ear that have Bluetooth in them. Made by 3M called Worktunes connect.

If people really want to listen to music while they shoot (which I have no problems with), they should at least get the proper headphones:

https://www.amazon.com/3M-90543-4DC-WorkTunes-Protector-Technology/dp/B0723CYHPZ

Even so I'd still double plug those.

u/MOIST_PEOPLE 路 4 pointsr/lifehacks

The replies to this are moronic, yes they would help immensely. 3m worktunes but so would some ear plugs

u/clutsyclaire 路 3 pointsr/diving

I always use these now since I suffered with ear infections after swimming in Egypt. They are great, just need to make sure you buy the right size. My local dive shop has The measuring guides, but sure you could look online.

Docs Pro earplugs

u/DNGTA 路 3 pointsr/guns

That's 3M EAR Classic part number 310-1101. Memorized it because they are the only thing that work well for me. Last time I shot I tried the Mack's that are the top right now and they didn't do a damn thing. I've tried a variety of Meijer/Walmart special foam types as well as the rubber stuff. Some of the foam stuff is ok but rubber is just useless.

u/YLIySMACuHBodXVIN1xP 路 3 pointsr/flying

I know you're probably kidding, but to all the new guys out there, hearing protection is just as necessary as anything else when it comes to flying IMO. They come in all shapes and sizes, from the small one-use foam ones (can be bought here) to reusable in-ear plugs (bought here) and finally to heavy-duty, over-ear earmuffs.

u/bellajade 路 3 pointsr/childfree

I haven't had to deal with this exact situation, but my coworkers drove me to the brink of insanity as well. Sound cancelling headphones are a great start. Also, the magic of industrial grade ear plugs cannot be understated.

The link goes to the best, most comfortable ear plugs I know of. Those things got me through college while living next to roommates who liked to have loud sex whenever I was trying to sleep. Should drown out post-fuck wailing pretty good too.

There will come a time when they're screaming. There's no rule that says you need to listen to them scream at full volume. Block the noise and listen to music or an audiobook while you try to calm them down; it will help your stress level significantly.

u/zacknoland 路 3 pointsr/Locksmith

I recently started to wear these when making a lot of noise. Very nice for hearing protection and listening to music at the same time. 3M WorkTunes Connect Hearing Protector with Bluetooth Technology https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0723CYHPZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_AQjYBbVA8HNQR

u/Maltomate 路 3 pointsr/woodworking

As requested. I LOVE these things. Chainsaw, planer, they鈥檙e great for anything.


I got mine at Walmart for the same price ($50) as amazon.

u/ParksVSII 路 2 pointsr/whatisthisthing

I think those are the standard foam ones. The gel cups look quite different (and are sooooo comfortable)

My best friend at work for twelve hours. Audio books, music and radio on your phone. This babe lasts me a good 2.5-3 days without needing a quick charge on a lunch.

u/MoogleMan3 路 2 pointsr/woodworking

I have a set of worktunes with bluetooth for hearing protection. They're excellent. I love listening to music while working, and with a bluetooth connection, I wear them all day and listen to music that's on my phone. They don't get super loud, but that's by design; they're hearing protection after all. ;-)

This mask is great since it has the unlatching without removing feature. I use these filters when sanding or cutting wood, and these filters when spraying finishes.

u/sir_culo 路 2 pointsr/uruguay

Hola u/elevenosix__. Lamento mucho esto. Yo que vos, pruebo por ejemplo un equipo de protecci贸n de o铆do. Este funciona muy bien: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MXYJ2QP/ref=psdc_7491808011_t2_B0723CYHPZ.

O si no, este tiene bluetooth: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0723CYHPZ/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza.

Y ch谩cate.

u/fungus_fairy 路 2 pointsr/mildlyinteresting

I highly recommend these headphones

u/st1tchy 路 1 pointr/lawncare

I actually found these through your link and they are probably closer to what I would want right now. I don't see the added $25 value of the other ones.

u/bone-dry 路 1 pointr/bayarea

If people want to spend a little more, these $50 hearing protecters offer 24 db protection and support bluetooth. Basically, cheap wireless headphones with the added benefit of hearing protection.

u/irunthemile 路 1 pointr/ryobi

I use these 3M WorkTunes PPE with Bluetooth ($50), and highly recommend them.

u/cdbfoster 路 1 pointr/sleep

I've been using these for almost a year now. Cheap, effective, no problems.

u/luckus 路 1 pointr/Truckers

I haven't had any trouble with the adapter moving around too much. As for the battery life, I can't really say. I've used it for a couple hours straight without any problems, but never for a full shift. The amazon page claims a 10 hour life, but the reviews indicate otherwise. Maybe give something like these a try? 3M makes good stuff, and then there wouldn't be the adapter hanging down waiting to get broken off.

u/Qwell01 路 1 pointr/bluetooth

I got these amzn.com/B0723CYHPZ at Costco for the same thing, they work well enough, I don't listen to music usually just podcasts. But I have used them for music a few times just to test the quality. I'm not a music nut, but they do sound good enough for me for music, not like weak tinny sound.

u/AxsDeny 路 1 pointr/daddit

Real talk, man. I bought myself a pair of these:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0723CYHPZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_VBgxCbNPQ9TA8

When my kid is screaming and freaking out I put them on and put on some music so I can鈥檛 hear him. I work to calm him (and never wear them unless I鈥檓 with him) and find that taking away the screaming is a sensory wonder. Removing that one sensory frustration really helps me keep my cool and do my best to try and help. Even if he鈥檚 flailing and freaking out it feels less intimidating to try and handle. Just being able to hold him without the noise is... freeing? I鈥檓 not sure what word to use.

I鈥檓 probably a bad person for not listening to the screaming. But it works for me.

u/DrunkyMcDrunk-Drunk 路 1 pointr/pics

These. These are foamies.

u/PeterPrometheus 路 1 pointr/tinnitus

I used to have a pair of flare isolates. Not super comfortable and found them to be a bit underwhelming. Good frequency response tho.

Just got these and super happy with them: 3M E-A-R Classic Plus Uncorded Earplugs, Hearing Conservation 310-1101 in Pillow Pack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008MCTOPU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_yFPhAb0S1N442

They're big and ugly yes, but wore them on SF Bart the other day (super loud) and it did the trick. Also you won't lose a pair and be out 70 bucks like I was when I lost the isolates.

u/neuronet 路 1 pointr/sleep

I sleep with ear plugs every night. Two best types for me are the wax nuggets and the foam cylinders (NOT the cones):

u/WitmlWgydqWciboic 路 1 pointr/Assistance

I'm sorry I can't help with the money; but maybe i can help you be be clearer.

Would a noise reduction rating of 24dB be enough? If not maybe in ear plugs underneath?

This is what we bought for our kids when we went to Mickey's Halloween party:

Something like this! It reduces the sound and protects their ears. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078C7CGCL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_KaR4CbEV1SPAN

u/alexanderfry 路 1 pointr/headphones

These 3M Bluetooth over ears popped up in my feed the other day.

I actually like the idea of it, I always feel like I鈥檓 asking for trouble mowing the lawn in my H9s.

u/maddscientist 路 1 pointr/woodworking

I bought a set of these 3m Worktunes. They've been good so far, the Bluetooth has good range and it's easy to connect.

u/Fubarfrank 路 1 pointr/BeginnerWoodWorking

I run a cnc in my garage all day so dust and noise suppression are a must. I use the RZ Mask and either a pair of LG Tones or more so lately these 3M bluetooth hearing protectors. Having good dust collection is a must as well so I use a shop vac for small tools like the spindle sander and hand sander but I also have the Harbor Freight 2hp dust collector as well for the cnc and larger tools. I intend to do some modding to it soon to change the crappy bag filter to a 1 micron cartridge filter. I've breathed my fair share of wood dust and it worries me but also knowing which woods are more toxic helps as well. Purple Heart dust for instance is very toxic to breath in as well as pretty much and plywood dust and of course MDF. Just be cautious but I wouldn't lose sleep over not having that $150 respirator or noise cancelling headphones. To add to that, you want to hear just a bit of sound because listening to your machines is important too. Good luck in this adventure, it can be a wild and rewarding ride!

You can return anything on Amazon for 30 days, even from marketplace sellers.

I use these for my 6mo old because there isn't a point in buying A20's just yet. Work just fine https://www.amazon.com/BBTKCARE-Protection-Cancelling-HeadPhones-Babies/dp/B078C7CGCL/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1549043992&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=baby+headset&psc=1
