Radians CEP001-R Custom Molded Earplugs (Red)

This kit works really well. I take hearing protection very seriously. My parents were both audiophiles, so I was the only kid who regularly wore ear plugs in the mosh pits, and I have maintained my full frequency range despite years of loud activities. I was very surprised by how easy they were to make and how great they fit. This dB reduction is significant (26) but it's less than the disposable 3m ones that I've used in the past, which I believe have a noise reduction of 32dB. I put one of each in alternating ears and then compared the noise reduction while wearing over the ear headphones. Both reduced the noise very well, but the 6dB difference is noticable. The disposable ones were slightly better at reducing the noise, but I do like that these fit so well in my ears without any effort and they don't end up in a landfill. I bought these for two uses: motorcycle wind noise and sleeping. They are plenty effective for blocking out noise for a light sleeper, 100%. For wind noise, they are very effective, and I will continue to use them, but I'm not an audiologist, so I can't say how important that 6db difference will be, long term. My only complaint is with how well these seal. If I had realized before I made them, I probably would have pinched the south side before they set, or stuck a tiny handle into the epoxy, or something. They feel very robust, and when you seat them in your ear canals you can feel them seal all the way from the inside out, but then it's like trying to peel up a sticker when you can't find an edge. If I had longet nails it might be easier. I've gotten better at it, but that's my one recommendation with these, once you get them all pushed into your ears, pinch them at the top before they set so you have a little place to pull when you want to take them out. Other than that, they're great. Excellent instructions and I like how bright and hard to lose the rest ones are.

I tried this product three times. The first time I was a little worried about getting it out of my ear so I didn't stuff it in as far as I should have. It worked fine, however it didn't block as much sound as I thought it should. The second time I stuffed it in as far as I could and got the fit and sound blocking I desired...and it didn't dry correctly. The whole secret to this compound is in the mixing before putting it in your ear. Whatever color you get, there will be a white tub and a colored tub. You split each in half and mix one white ball with one colored ball. When you mix them you will see white and color swirls. Mix it until it is uniformly colored or it will not dry. You can tell when its mixed properly because its not as juicy and the overall color is slightly lighter than the colored tub before you added the white part. As for it getting stuck in your ear, well I shoved that stuff down until it came out the other side and it still popped right out no problem. You will hear crackling and popping as it cures. If you don't, you didn't mix it quit enough. It's pretty cheap so just order another and try again. Its easier than I make it sound. I use this for hearing protection when I do track days on my motorcycle. It fits nicely under my helmet and I can wear them all day. I forget sometimes that I have them in. My ear canals are on the small side so I was never able to find regular plugs that didn't hurt after an hour or less. These work great.

So I understand that these were sold as ear plugs for the purpose of noise cancelation. I, however, bought them in hopes of making my own custom mold for my in-ears. So I'll review both purposes seperatly. The product was compact and simple, and was actually pretty satisfying to use. You mix 2 different puddies together and it heats up and then you just stick it in your ears. Its warm and fizzles a bit and honestly, pretty enjoyable experience. Smelled a bit on my hands, but soap took the smell away. They were a bit prone to picking up any grease, be it finger or ear. This made them easy to slip out of its suction seal, all but removing the noise cancelation. I think a more rubbery material would have gripped onto the skin a bit better than this, well, foam-like material? Anyways, for plugs, it's simple, satisfying, and gets the job done. They don't hit the ball out of the park, but they are worth the money you pay. For my musician friends... No go. Like I said above, they work as plugs. But they absolutely do not grip to the drivers. On top of that, the thin lip that hopefully grips the front of the driver forming almost like a socket? Yeah, that ripped almost immediately... So the drivers just popped right out and I was left with foam in my ears. Was really hopeful for a cheap "custom" alternative... Maybe it exists... These aren't it.

耳栓の中ではトップレベルの遮音機能です。自分の耳に完全にフィットする形に形成するので、装着する際に耳の中の空気を抜くように装着すると密着性が増すとともに耳の中の空気も少なくなるので遮音性が挙がり、耳栓としてはこれ以上ない遮音力を発揮します。耐水性なので3年以上同じものを洗いながら使い続けてますが、石鹼だけでは落ち切らない汚れが蓄積するので重曹水での洗浄もお勧めです(洗浄後は水に1時間以上つけおきして入念にすすがないと耳の皮膚が傷みます)

I've never tried this, never used a similar product, so I knew it was gonna be an interesting experiment. The instructions were pretty clear, take the two pieces brake them into two for each ear, mixed them and place it in the ear for at least 10min. Did that, pretty happy with the noise reduction, altough when putting on the motorcycle helmet, because that's my main use for it, the extra material poked out and it was uncomfortable, after making it the right size. The feel is much better and noise cancelling performance is pretty good. Much better than the generic silicone ones that sometimes don't seal as well. Pretty happy with it but next time I will be more conservative with the amount I use!

Estoy contenta con el producto.Voy a diario a la piscina Y no entra agua en los oídos.

Great product. I used it to make custom earbuds for my Altec Lansing TrueEvo Bluetooth earbuds. The process was simple and there’s enough to make a couple of sets for trial and error. The molds have held for several months and are easy to pop out of my ears and pop off my headphones (so they fit in their charging case.) I’ve run, lifted, done yoga, and CrossFit and they stay in place.

Easy to mould and they really do block out a lot of noise - great for sleep but maybe too much for motorcycling. I had enough left over goo to mould a custom pair of earbuds using some old headphones which seem to work pretty well
