Total agree that people should wear ear protection but i see a lot of people who still don't. Great review

[@MrGardener18]

First commenter again. Nice one mate.

😀 Another great video chap - Ear protection is very important. I have switched to Bluetooth ear defenders - eliminating cables is a game changer. Nice one chap 👍🏻

[@MrGardener18]

@@TheFullyChargedGardener I use Bluetooth ear buds so much easier than having the wire in the way all the time.

MrGardener18 Great idea. Music is such an important part of my working day. Especially those miserable wet days - helps keep me motivated 😀

Good review, nice edits 👌 Always buy the green, you won't get enough protection with yellow if you are using them with back pack blowers. Not much difference in the price between yellow and green

[@MrGardener18]

thanks, mate. I agree these aren,t man enought for backpack blowers I use my 3m x5a ear defenders 37db!!! they do the job.

[@JoerivanLith]

I started with peltor II ear defenders, they work good for pretty much every job. But if you use petrol power tools whole the day, day in day out youre better off with peltor III. Noise is tiring in the long term. I tried peltor I that came with my helmet but its just not good enough when working with 115db chainsaws. Changed it immediately for peltor III. The only downside is you can hardly hear people talking to you, and look funny but its better than having tinnitus. 80db is 8 hours safe work without hearing damage, 83db is 4, 86db is 2 etc. Every 3db halves the time.

[@MrGardener18]

I had the same experience. With the peltor 1 just not strong enough for petrol tools so I switched to the peltor x5a which are just amazing.

Great video. Made me laugh when you said they aren’t much bigger than a large pair of ears. 🤣

Hello. First of all, thank you for the review. I bought Peltor Optime 3 for use while studying. However, it was very uncomfortable for me and I regretted it. Do you think I can use it comfortably while studying if I buy Optime 1?

[@MrGardener18]

personally I find them very comfortable they are so light and don't grip your heads to tight. So I'm happy to wear them for long periods. I hope they work for you.

[@mertcansag.35]

@@MrGardener18 I hope. Thanks for your quick turnaround:)

[@mertcansag.35]

@@MrGardener18 I want to ask you one more question:) Is the weight of the product 180 grams or 290 grams? It was showing as 180 gr on various sites.

[@MrGardener18]

@@mertcansag.35 I've just weight it myself and it's 180g

can be useful in your opinion for drum players? thx!

[@MrGardener18]

I don't see why not you'd still be able to hear just at a safer level.

[@StoyanStoyanov88]

Are they good for drummers?

[@MrGardener18]

I guess it really depends on how much noise you making.

[@StoyanStoyanov88]

@@MrGardener18 Under Earnuffs i use earplugs in my ears,they also cut the noise a little.3m peltor h510a cut 27db,and my earplugs cut maybe 12db.

[@wayneessar7489]

I know this is a very personal question but how large would you say your head is? I have trouble finding earmuffs that don't pull up on my ears or hurt the top of my head. Thanks!

[@MrGardener18]

I definitely got a big head. But these fit really well.

[@wayneessar7489]

@@MrGardener18 Awesome! I will look for them.

[@MrGardener18]

[@bhaveshbhagwanji9704]

Can they be folded easily?

[@MrGardener18]

They don't fold but can slides up and down for a better fit and easier storage.

[@harrymeme4637]

I like the Optime 2 better.

[@MrGardener18]

I would agree they seem to offer the best balance for noise reduction and lightness
