User questions & answers

Question:	shooting
Answer:	Theses have a noise reduction rate of 32, and most shooting ear muffs only have a noise reduction rate of around 22-26, so these will definitely protect you. That being said, I agree with the person who said they work best along with outer ear protection. Of course, it also it depends on what you're shooting and whether you're shooting at an indoor range or outside, but again, I'd still play it safe and double up.
Question:	What is the decibel rating
Answer:	Here is what I found... These uncorded plugs are rated NRR 32(or Noise Reduction Rating of 32). NRR is calculated by unprotected ear dB levels minus protected ear decibel levels minus 3 dB. The higher the NRR rating, the better the protection. They work really well for what I use them for, which is to sleep :-)
Question:	Are these reusable? Can they be washed
Answer:	I had washed some by accident and they clean beautifully bit no longer expand the same way. You cannot really use them after washing, but like others say, you can use them for a good week. I have a container i keep mine in so no dirt and dust. been using for 5 years for work and sleep so average 12h a day weekly. No ear issues, infections, or anything like that.
Question:	This product says 200 ct. Is that 200 bags of ear plugs, each containing 2 ear plugs (total plugs = 400), or is it 100 bags each containing 2 plugs
Answer:	It says on the package (200 PR) which I take it for 200 Pairs, 200 bags of ear plugs, each containing 2 ear plugs. Noah I've been working in a factory with loud noises for a long time, and this is the best ear plugs that worked for me. If you squeeze them right and insert them into your ear tunnel and hold them down for few seconds, it works great. Just be careful when you need to take them out of your ears, follow the instructions in the manual, twist them and go slowly about it so you won't hurt your eardrum.

Product features

Hi-Vis & High Noise Reduction

Employee compliance is essential to maintaining proper hearing safety in the workplace. Laser Lite High Visibility Foam Earplugs feature a bright yellow and magenta color scheme that makes for easy in-ear identification from a distance. The high Noise Reduction Rating of 32 further ensures ear safety, even in the loudest work environments.

The small profile of these disposable earplugs makes them ideal for smaller ear canals, and the contoured T-shape allows for easy insertion and removal. For larger ears, the foam is self-adjusting for a near universal fit. This makes Laser Lite Earplugs a very cost-effective choice for any workplace. The closed-cell foam skin is soil-resistant to prevent dirt build-up and promote good hygiene.

Ensures Compliance

Ensuring workers are wearing their earplugs is essential to workplace hearing safety. Laser Lite Earplugs feature a bright yellow & magenta color that is easy to spot from a distance to ensure employee compliance. It also helps to prevent earplug loss or misplacement.

NRR 32

Laser Lite Earplugs have one of the highest Noise Reduction Ratings (NRR) of any disposable earplugs on the market. The self-adjusting foam expands in the ear upon insertion to create a secure seal for excellent hearing protection in even the loudest workplaces.

User questions & answers

Question:	I have one earpiece that is damaged. Can I replace just one or do I need to purchase the set
Answer:	You can purchase a replacement earbud for the 3M Peltor TEP-200 Tactical Earplug Kit under the manufacturer part number TEP-200E.
Question:	are these waterproof
Answer:	I couldn’t find and I haven’t tried yet.... and I won’t go diving or swimming with it...... but I used them in hard rain ..... they can take a lot...... the case though is waterproof for transport...... I would go with splash/rain/weatherproof use them for work all time (military/outdoors a lot)
Question:	Do these work for whistles
Answer:	It depends on if the whistles are louder than 85 dB. If so yes it will compress the sound. Thank you for considering 3M products. Please contact the 3M Techline at 800-243-4630 with additional questions.
Question:	A lot of the reviews mention shooting; how do these do with continuous noise, i.e. lawnmower, tractor, splitter, woodworking, industrial, etc
Answer:	I have used the TEP-200s for both problem sets. In terms of noise reduction, coupled with the 3M Ear Screw foam tips, they exceed the performance of most over the ear systems available at an advertised 30 db reduction. That remains true between the two scenarios. However, you do sacrifice quality in noise amplification, with a distinct "tinny" nature, and some brief squealing with different pitches. However for practical use, I find the performance satisfactory. As someone with a degree of hearing loss, I do find it easier to hear my partner at a lower degree of amplification with over the ear systems, than I do with these at the same sound setting. In terms of long term comfort. This is fairly nuanced and dependent on the user. I abhor over the ear systems mostly, thus my use of the TEP-200. I do find achieving an optimal fit much more intensive with the TEPS, and have found with vigorous movement, lots of discourse, and time, the buds shift, and in occasion have resulted in a reduction of noise attenuation. I can't recall if I have ever lost a bud, and don't believe I have. After a few hours, my ear canals do become extremely itchy, and I do notice soreness in the ear after extended use and multiple days in a row with use. There is also the consideration of hygiene, and the pretty profound increase in intra-ear bacteria that results from in-ear bud use. I hope these thoughts have been helpful.
