WORKTUNES WIRELESS HEARING PROTECTION AM/FM BLUETOOTH RADIO 90542-3DC

[@curiosityintrigue]

I have been using this same headphones for 3 years and they are fantastic. Bluetooth music & FM radio is what I use the most while doing yard work.

[@Unseen_Aura]

Thank you very much for this video. I wasted a few hundred on normal NC headphones before realizing options such as this existed, helped me make a better purchase for a third of the price! =)

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Great to hear!

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Do you prefer in-ear noise canceling earbuds, or earmuffs, like the Worktunes?

[@jamesglenn2006]

No replies in a year? Well, I think for true cancelling you have to cover the entire ear, I find that muffs get a little warm but better than earplugs; for me anyhow. I cant wait to try out radio/bluetooth while cancelling outside noise. Helpful review Mark 👍

[@robothegreatful]

Nice tip about the hat! I love wearing my college hat all the time in the garage. Thanks for the detailed video!

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

You're welcome. I always wear a hat as well, that's why I like these Worktunes.

[@Mitch.Weber.12]

Thanks for the review ! I head to the motor racing a lot and this has helped a lot in my choice 👊🏽👍🏽 Question though - do you find the music/radio comes in nice and clear/loud? On amazon they mention “Safe Volume Control” which makes me think the radio will be too quiet

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

It's just loud enough when I'm on a zero turn mower. I often run it all the way up.

[@vswain47]

Hey Mark, thanks for the review but you really didn't get into how well the radio reception is on this head set. Football season is coming up fast and I'm looking to upgrade from my present radio headset( with wires ) while I'm inside the stadium.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

This headset actually has the best AM & FM reception of all the one's I've owned so far. I like to listen to baseball on AM radio while mowing and these work great for that. Bluetooth works well too.

[@benjaminmentink6262]

Excellent review. Well paced and relevant info that helps me to make a decision. Cheers

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Awesome, thank you!

[@joshlaningham1572]

Soo... It's rechargeable or you need to buy batteries? Or both?

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

You need to buy 2-AA batteries for these. I've been using AA rechargeable batteries for my camera gear and they work well. I'm sure the would work well in these too.

[@ShlisaShell]

I will run this by my son. He goes through so many headphones. Not sure if this is what he's after He is six foot three and always struggles to find headphones large enough and comfortable enough. Happy Fall Mark. 👋

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Happy Fall to you too, Shilisa! Hope all is well. These headphones are very comfortable and have a great sound quality.

[@ButchHolladay]

WorkTunes Connect 90543 are pretty good too. The one shown here has an update before the end of the year in the hi fi speakers and call answering feature.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

The call answering feature would be great to have. I thought the speakers sounded great already, if they improve them, that would be amazing.

[@meteors63]

I assume it will connect to BT even when listening to a AM/FM radio station. If a call comes through your phone, does the radio station mute so that you can hear your phone ring through the headset? Also, I also assume there's no mic on the headset?

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

I listen to podcasts about 75% of the time and the radio the other 25%. I notice that the sound just mutes when a call comes in and you are correct, there's no mic on it. I own another brand headset that rings and has a mic. They're not nearly as comfortable as these Worktunes.

[@meteors63]

@@MarkThomasBuilder OK, well at least that's some kind of 'indication' that you're getting a call. Not great but better than nothing I suppose.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Yes, once I realized how it works, I never miss a call anymore.

[@jamesglenn2006]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I think you helped sway my decision toward this model . 👍

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Glad to help! These are very comfortable and work well overall.

[@johnbirkland6254]

I own the exact same headset, but cannot find the Bluetooth pairing instructions anywhere, and it's time to mow. Hate to buy a new set just to get Bluetooth back.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

I've been using these for a few years now and they have great sound and are very comfortable. This spring I couldn't get bluetooth to pair and couldn't find instructions or a video to help me. I finally discovered that you toggle to the bluetooth mode and then push and hold the other small round button until you hear it go into pairing mode. From there you pair your phone again. Let me know if that helps.

[@johnbirkland6254]

@@MarkThomasBuilder Yes, extremely helpful. I'm now paired. Thanks Much!

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Glad to hear it. I was in the same boat as you a few weeks ago and full disclosure, my 16yr old son easily figured it out and showed me how to get them paired. 😅👍

[@erichard1241]

Question - can you actually play FM radio without connecting to phone via Bluetooth?

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Yes, it's great to have that variety when out mowing for hours at at time.

[@ButchHolladay]

I wish I had those again,lol.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

I highly recommend them. 😀

[@ynal69]

thanks for the video

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

You bet, I'm sure you'll like these.

[@AndyNorrisForReals]

Sold! Thanks.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

I just used mine today. They're still my go-to headphones.

[@jakelauer2599]

In my experience the audio is way too quiet. I can hear everything fine when using a push mower or string trimmer, but starts to get difficult when using my br600 and then my zero turn drowns out most of the audio. I just stick with some noise canceling earbuds with ear protection headphones over top

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

My loudest item is a zero turn with a bagger and I normally can hear everything decently except for a few podcast that are produced quieter than normal. I also would like these to have the option to go a little louder.

[@jakelauer2599]

@@MarkThomasBuilder I also noticed the radio audio seems to go higher than the Bluetooth audio.

[@yourfavoritelawnguy2722]

Does this model have the stupid volume limiter? its the one thing i hate about mine, it doesnt get loud enough to be heard clearly over a mower

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

This gets loud enough so I can hear all the podcasts on 3 different zero turns that I run, including one with a loud bagger. I can also tell when I'm getting phone calls on this through bluetooth.

[@softballsoccerball]

Thanks

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Welcome

[@Sachin-go3sn]

If it has Bluetooth why does it come with a headphone jack cable?

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

Good question, let's say you have an old mp3 player without Bluetooth, the cable allows you to still listen to it.

[@Sachin-go3sn]

@@MarkThomasBuilder Thank you. I'm in Australia and considering this for car detailing.

[@davidpatrick1813]

I think it is so funny how folks want us to watch them wearing as they work ... doesn't do any sound changes ... but they could still work fine.

[@MarkThomasBuilder]

All I can say is that I've used these Worktunes for the last 2 seasons. They're awesome!

[@davidpatrick1813]

@@MarkThomasBuilder I hear (pun intended) that these units are quite good. I decided to buy a 31dB unit with ratio and so on and look forward to trying them out. I hope I can store them easily...
