Howard Leight by Honeywell R-01526, Impact Sport Earmuffs, Olive Drab Green.

Good quality without spending hundreds. I can hear better with them on. The mic picks up sounds you wouldn’t normally hear if you turn them up high enough. Best bang for your buck! Noise cancellation works fine. No issues, would buy again. 👍

Bought these for about $30 over nine years ago, and they're still going strong. They've held up through countless trips, yard work, and general use without any issues. The sound amplification is still clear, the hearing protection is excellent, and they're just as reliable today as when they were new. Seeing the price around $63 now makes me appreciate that purchase even more. If mine ever quit, I'd buy another pair without hesitation. A product that lasts nearly a decade earns every one of those five stars.

A few years ago, most my trigger time was spent outdoors. For outdoor use, the Howard Leight Impact Sport is a great muff. It's light, low profile and very effective at reducing gun shots to a comfortable volume. I also had no problem hearing the people around me--in fact, it actually improved my hearing and could give you an advantage in a home defense situation (more on this later). Unlike some cheaper competitors, they also have an auto-shutoff, which kills the electronic functions if the muffs are left on for more than 4 hours. For me, this is critical since I am notorious for leaving on my electronics. I haven't had to change the battery on my impact sports after 2 years of use.Last winter, I starting going to an indoor range near my office to keep up with my training (too cold, snowy for an outdoor range in my neck of the woods). My indoor range is about the worst possible environment for hearing safety you can imagine. It's a 30 yard range made entirely of concrete, including the walls for each point. There are 5 points to a room and no limit on what you can shoot (up to 50bmg from a rifle, but shotguns are limited to slugs only). With 12 foot ceilings and NO sound deadening materials to speak of, you need to rely on you muffs entirely to keep you eardrums from exploding. In this environment, the Impact Sports are NOT up to the task. My first time indoors, I quickly discovered that the lmpact Sports offered almost no protection by themselves. I had double up with foam plugs before I could shoot comfortably. Unfortunately, with the foam plugs, the electronic hearing enhancement was almost useless.I ultimately purchased the Impact Pro muffs in September 2016 (so I have had them for over a year now). They Impact Pro offers essentially the same electronic hearing enhancement (with auto-shutoff) as the Impact Sport, but with a much heavier, bulkier profile that substantially improves the Impact Pro's noise reduction abilities when compared to the Impact Sport (31 decibel reduction compared to 22 decibel). My ears are safe, even when the range is filled with big bore rifles, AR's and shotguns. I can also carry a conversation with the Impact Pro on--just have to play with the volume a bit to find a good balance. The Impact Pro is, however, far from perfect. After switching to the Pro's, I had to adjust my cheek weld because these bulky muffs were in the way. I also find it can be tricky to wear these with a hat and eye protection because the hat and eye protect can cause the muffs to break their seal with your head, letting in dangerously loud sounds. I can tweak how I wear my glasses/goggles, but this can cause other issues by either reducing the protection from my eye protection or causing me to wear my eye protection in a way that makes it heard to aim well.In short, if I had a better, reasonably priced option for protecting my ears at an indoor range that allowed me to hear what is going on around me--without the bulk and compromises I have to make with the Impact Pro--I would jump all over it. If I am shooting outdoors, I would go for the Impact Sports over these every single time. However, for the purpose of shooting at a LOUD indoor range, this is really the only option I have come up with that fits my needs and costs less than $100 on Amazon. I know there are other options out there, but the cost of going to a custom made electronic plug is just not feasible for me. So, the Impact Pro's are my go to option for indoor shooting--at least for the time being. For this reason, I am giving them five stars (but with a caveat).Side Note: I also keep an extra pair of the Impact Sports, with fresh batteries, in my hidden gun safe in my bedroom for home defense purposes. The electronic noise filter on both the Sport and Pro muffs (I would guess they are almost the same, if not actually the same, electronics uses in both pairs) does an outstanding job of amplifying and enhancing low volume sounds. I can put them on in my bedroom, crank up the volume and hear my kids talking softly at the other end of the house. If you have never used a pair of electronic muffs, it can be quite starting the first couple of times you have them on. I expect this could give me a big advantage in a home invasion situation, where the introducers have nothing on their ears and I have the hearing of a fox. :) The Impact Sport and/or Pro are worth owning for this reason alone.

These things work so well it’s shocking. The hearing amplification is in fact directional and realistic. The noise suppression works great and stood up well to my 12 gauge. As for the fit and finish, these are very comfortable and i didn't have any problem sticking to my head.My only criticism is that, due to the directionality, if only one side of the headset detects unsafe noice (such as a clap or a snap of a twig), only one side will shut off. This doesn’t appear to affect safety (as louder sounds like gunshots do not cause this) but it does provide a weird sensation when it happens. I’d rather have the entire headset shut down to quiet if unsafe noise levels were detected on either muff.

High quality ear protection for a good price. They fit very well and are comfortable enough for a long day at the range. They versatile enough to use with a handgun and do not get in the way while using a rifle scoped or not.

Blocks out the loud bangs but allows you to hear the ping of a steel target and also commands from the range officer. Great safety item that allows for good communication. Adjustable volume works well so you can hear what you want to hear. Adjusted well to my head and fit well around my ears. I did order the gel ear pads - they fit well and kept my ears cooler during hot days on the range.

EDIT, 2 years of regular use later:(I'm going to leave my original review below. For the most part, it's still accurate. For potential buyers, I want to include new info that only extended experience could have brought to light)I have other ear pro. One 3M Peltor Tactical (mid-range model, I can't recall model#) and one very inexpensive pair of Champion Electronic ear pro.The Champions work but have issues that keep them being any more than backups or for 'ear-less' people who may need to borrow a set.The Peltors are amazing. The sound is better than the Howard Leight's and I have zero complaints about them.But this is about Howard Leight ear pro. Mine are both my oldest pair of electronic ear pro and the ones I use most often - my 'go-to' ears.They're affordable by anybody at ~$50 (sometimes deals make them cheaper yet). They're effective enough to make them a viable competitor w/ higher-end and more expensive ear pro.I've never felt as though I needed to 'double up' and use earplugs underneath because they didn't offer enough noise reduction. Battery life is good. I use mine 2-3x or more per week, for between 1-3hrs/session and I typically need to replace batts once per month.I've never used the Howard Leight's input 3.5mm jack to play audio or phone into my ear pro. When I'm training/shooting targets, I'm training/shooting targets. Nor am I interested in hearing music while shooting - mostly due to safety. Some people may need to stay connected and may find an input jack to be a positive feature - I'm just not one of those people. Free Americans can decide what's most appropriate for themselves w/o advice from me or anybody else.Let's address the biggest, ugliest problem the HL's have, IMO: They will bring the pain when worn w/ eye pro (100% of the time, for me) and/or for extended periods of time. I can usually feel the headache starting after a half-hour to hour into a session. It's a 'surface' headache for me, personally. I'm assuming it's due to constant pressure from the head band piece, pushing against the ear pro.When I first heard of this issue (prior to experiencing it myself), I kind of chuckled to myself and thought perhaps some people were being sensitive (sissies?)...But I was wrong! It's not horrible, unbearable pain - it is difficult to simply ignore after a time, and it's certainly a distraction that nobody needs on the firing line when training or teaching/learning, or trying to shave fractions of a second from a shot timer. It gets old - quickly.There are gel inserts you can buy to replace the stock setup. They will cost you about 60-75% of the total cost of the Howard Leight's, though, unfortunately. To me, it wasn't even a question: I gladly forkes over the cash and my head/ears have thanked me repeatedly.Last, about durability: Internet 'torture testing' can't account for one factor that is difficult to simulate accurately: Durability and function over time. I've probably used and abused Howard Leight's namesake ear pro more than the majority of the target demographic.I'm not an outlier, a pipe hitter, HSLD, or somebody that purposely abuses my gear. But, I am a guy that spends a whole lot of time down on my personal range, shooting steel and consuming a lot of brass, and my gear gets used quite a bit like I said earlier.HL ear pro hasn't broken or let me down since I bought them in 2016. They aren't affected by sweat. Wires haven't split from folding and opening a zillion times. Single potentiometer/power switch is fine and does not crackle.Like most electronic ear pro, very close proximity to microphones will cause squeeling feedback, but it's not overly loud and doesn't occur in normal use; usually only when a hand, etc. comes very close to mic.They are inexpensive and durable. If and when they eventually do wear out, I will absolutely replace them because they are such a good value.Original review (2016)Incredible deal. Perfectly functional and takes a beating.It's difficult to put a price on your hearing...especially as you get older.

I am very pleased with my purchase and am a bit baffled by the bad or mediocre reviews, here's why: These hearing protectors fit much better than the standard huge-cup variety, and definitely afford a reasonable cheek weld when firing a rifle or shotgun! At the range with a buddy, I had to step out with him and switch ear muffs with him so that he could fire my rifle; however I forced him to continue wearing the big red pants with suspenders and yellow buttons, because I have my limits, Micky Mouse Man.The audio amplification is outstanding, you get a reasonable facsimile of real world audio with these, or even amplified hearing... in stereo, so you don't feel like you have a big orange bucket on your head. A single volume control is simple and positive, and auto shut off if you forget. For the user that wants Bose surround sound headphones, go home, pour yourself a sweet umbrella-drink cocktail, and listen to your Michael Bolton LP with your $500 headphones. You could plug an mp3 into these, but I agree with many here that this is silly. Why would you want the distraction at the range or worse, while hunting and trying to listen for deer and/or your buddy yelling out not to shoot him as he soils the woods? I intend to take these hunting because I don't like the ringing in my ears after a shot and all that silence, regular foamies or muffs don't work because you can't hear anything!Here is the big benefit of this product. You can wear foamies and these muffs, and then turn the volume up so that you can still hear conversation and be aware of your surroundings, but have NO ill effects after an hour at the range shooting large caliber weapons. I found them to be more than adequate, and I will not go back to non-amplified hearing protectors.Please go spend $300 on some tactical hearing protectors if you want all of the bells, whistles and lights of those models, but I really think that these are state of the art and reasonably priced, especially just under $50, I would pay a bit more and still feel like it was a good product at a reasonable price.They collapse down for easy transport, aren't massive on your head, and are subtly colored so you're not Mickey Mousing around with stupid huge bright massive muffs that make you look like (and feel) like a bumbling clown at the range. I've seen guys try to get through a door, but smack their muffs on the door frame and take a stutter-step back... not really, but almost. Correction, I was that guy, but not anymore. 5 Stars for quality, value, performance, slim design and muted coloring. BTW we're supposed to be rating these at their price point (for those giving 3 stars and saying, "Hey I really like these but boo-hoo they're not like the $300 tacticool muffs that I really wanted." Go rate THOSE with three stars because they were too expensive for you to get.)

Orijinal,uygun fiyat.

The product was good

A good headset I use it just to wear as well as for tactical airsoft

Out of the package these earmuffs feel like quality. I have a pair of regular earmuffs with a NRR of 31dB and I can't hear any difference in ambient noise with the power off on these. The mic's sound quite natural when turned on. They are large but not heavy and for me, don't seem to interfere with the rifle butt in a sitting position. I wear glasses and still get a comfortable fit with a tight seal. The lower profile electronic earmuffs post a rating of 19 to 22dB NRR and given that sound preasure doubles every 3 dB, I have opted for the highest (NRR) rating I can get. Haven't tried them at the range yet, I will update this when I do. You might want to check reviews on Amazon.com, there is a lot more.May 12, 2016... Used these earmuffs on an outdoor range last week and they worked perfectly. I'm very happy and would buy again. Note, I have not tried to play music through them... not a good idea while being responsible for firearms.May 21, 2016... I shoot 223 but spotted for a guy shooting 338 today and worked well in suppressing the report.

Alors la, je suis fan. Oui mais pourquoi jeune homme à la dérive?! Me direz vous. Et bien voila :Ses points forts :La qualité sonore est TOP, c'est dingue mais je me suis même amusé à le porter à la maison tellement il est sympa. Il augmente vraiment les sons environnants de façon agréable. D’ailleurs, pour la petite histoire, j'ai vu se casque sur la tête d'un de mes collègues tireur avant de l'acheter. Cette personne est très dure de la feuille, mais lorsqu'elle à mis ce casque MIRACLE, il entendait parfaitement.J'ai tiré plein de calibres avec, du calibre 12,de l'otan (5,56x45mm),.44,.308.9mm et 22 lr. Et ben ca marche au TOP avec tous ces calibres. Donc je l’enleve même pas de toute ma séances et mes oreilles sont bien protégée !Il se plie pour se ranger et faciliter son transport.Il est robuste !Il est très confortable ( ATTENTION voir les points faibles après il y a un détail). Il se règle parfaitement à votre taille de tête.Il est léger.Points faibles :Comme je vous le disait, il est très confortable. Par contre si vos branches de lunettes sont épaisse, il faut bien les placer. Vu que la mousse du casque est plutôt fine, il y a une perte d’étanchéité sonore...Le mode d'emploi est pas hyper clair, mais franchement on s'en sort vite. Vous avez juste à faire rouler la molette noire dans un sens pour l'allumer et régler le volume. Tournée à fond le casque s'éteindra.Très bon rapport qualité prix, et un achat qui n'a rien du gadget sur un stand. Prenez soin de vos petites noreilles !!Bonne séance de tir !PS : Dommage qu'ils ne fassent pas le même pour filtrer le bruit des voisins n'est ce pas ;-)Si mon commentaire vous a aidé, j'effacerai vos péchés si vous cliquez sur UTILE !
