Peltor Junior Earmuff, Blue #97023

Peltor Junior Earmuffs are designed expressly for protecting smaller heads from noise while hunting and shooting.
Customer Review: Works great for yard work, the shop, vacuuming
These allow my toddler sons to join me in the yard when I'm mowing the lawn or using the weedeater. With the mower and trimmer we also use safety glasses and observe precautions due to the hot motor, spinning blade and potentially flying debris. We also use the earmuffs in the shop with the vacuum and air compressor. Our shop is all hand tools but if we had power tools we'd use these for those too. I also wear an adult size set of earmuffs, and safety glasses. I even encourage my wife to use these vacuuming in the house. Hearing is easier to damage than a lot of folks think. We're no sissies either. My two year old helped me rebuild the motor on the mower and sharpen the blade last year. We also rebuilt a junk air compressor we got free. Now it's a cast iron workhorse. My boys were right there with me, becoming little men, and they're keeping safe too.
Customer Review: Great for Sensitives
My 3-year-old son has hyper-sensitive hearing. Blenders, lawn mowers, loud fans, etc sound *really* loud to him. He used to cover his eyes and ears with his 'blankie' in fear when he'd hear a loud noise. After talking with his therapist, I decided to get him a pair of these headphones. They've made a huge difference for us. Before I vacuum, I warn him it's going to be loud and offer him the headphones. He always says YES! He's no longer afraid of the vacuum. Same with the mower, blender... We bring it to the zoo with us because they have robo-tronic noises that used to FREAK him out. Now he's cool with it. It's so much better with these headphones. You can still hear voices really well with these on. (I've tried them myself while stretching them out). It's just the loud, droning-type noises that are quieted. Also, they *are* adjustable. The ear-cup thingy's slide down the metal wires to make them bigger. Totally worth the money for us.

Peltor 90541 WorkTunes AM/FM Hearing Protector with Digital Tuning

AM/FM radio headset and hearing protector all in one. Digital readout for easier usage. Noise reduction rating of 22dB.
Customer Review: OK Headset
Not as good as my old Radio Shack Optimus headset. Is not as lout in loud environments (like auto races) as I would like. Disappointed, especially for the price.
Customer Review: very poor reception
I recently received this product and was anxiously waiting for it since so many reviews were positive. However, when I received it I got absolutely no reception in my home and outdoors I had to be physically turned to the right spot to receive the signal without a lot of static. I live in an area with VERY strong signals so that is not the issue. I now have to search again for a product that actually does what it says. I own an iPod classic and it did not work at all with that either. The only good thing is that Amazon is great about returns and I did not have to pay return postage.

Peltor HRX52A-01347-BD-GV Worktunes NRR 22 dB Racetunes

Great for ear protection at noisy speedways and events, the Peltor Racetunes AM/FM radio hearing protector reduces noise to a safe 22 dBA. A patented, stainless steel headband and liquid gel ear cushions ensure optimal comfort for the entire day at the track. Because the radio tunes in to race broadcasts or music programs, you'll always be in the mix. The Racetunes also comes equipped with an audio jack and scanner patch cord for quick connections. This model requires two AA batteries (not included) for more than 180 hours of battery life.
Customer Review: Nice !
I purchased these for use at the dragstrip. They broadcast announcements etc over a short range fm station so everyone can hear. These work pretty well. My only dislike would be that it is a little difficult to locate a specific station on the dial since there are no markings and they are over your ears so you couldnt see the markings even if they were there. Iwould by them again.
Customer Review: Danger! These can damage your ears!
The built in radio is capable of creating 96 db of sound pressure at your ears if you are listening to a loud rock station. Anything above about 85 db for any extended time can cause damage. You may think you're protecting your hearing with these while operating loud machinery, but if you turn up the radio loud enough to hear it, you could be in danger.
