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.

Product description

The Howard Leight Impact Sport Bolt Electronic Shooting Earmuff features all new digital compression circuitry with a lightning-fast .5 MS (millisecond) attack time (250X faster than our classic Impact Sport model). This provides instant hearing protection that doesn't leave you in silence afterward. The attack time is the interval between when the sound goes above safe 82 dB hearing levels, like when a shot is fired, and when the earmuff reacts to lower the sound to a safe level. This is essential for range shooting, where constant gunshot noise can fatigue your ears. The .5 MS attack time also keeps you connected to your shooting environment by eliminating sound-clipping (the inadvertent blocking of ambient sound after a gunshot). This is crucial for hearing range commands or simply conversing with fellow shooters. Recessed microphones in each earcup serve to reduce wind noise, while boosting range commands or quiet animal sounds up to 5X. The microphones are also directional so you know where the sound is coming from (a real benefit for tracking prey). From a design standpoint, the low profile earcup features an indented cutout that allows your cheek to press flush to the gunstock without breaking the seal of the ear cushion. The leatherette headband is padded for comfort, and adjustable for a secure fit. Connectivity is also built-in, with an AUX input and 3.5 mm cord facilitating hookup for MP3 players, scanners etc. Two AAA batteries (included) deliver approximately 150 hours of usage, and the four-hour auto shut-off prevents needless draining. The Impact Sport Bolt Shooting Earmuff features a Noise Reduction Rating of 22 for ear protection. All Howard Leight earmuffs and safety eyewear are compatible for use with each other.

• LIGHTNING-FAST ATTACK TIME: Digital compression circuitry offers a .5 millisecond attack time (250X faster than the classic Impact Sport) to compress any noise that exceeds a safe 82 dB; NRR 22
• 5X SOUND AMPLIFICATION: Enhances low level frequencies like range commands, conversation with fellow shooters and animal noises; ideal for indoor & outdoor shooting, and hunting in the field
• RECESSED MICROPHONES: Reduces wind noise while providing clear, directional sound; allows the user to easily identify a sound’s origin which is a great benefit to hunters in the field
• SLIM DESIGN: Low profile earcup with rifle cutaways for gun stock clearance allow use in any shooting environment; adjustable, padded headband for comfort; folds for easy storage; water-resistant
• INCLUDES: Belt clip, extra earcup cushions, 2 AAA batteries, AUX input and 3.5 mm connection cord for MP3s and scanners; 4-hour auto shut-off increases battery life (approx. 150 hours)
