3M - H7B Peltor Optime 101 Behind-the-Head Earmuff, Hearing Protection, Ear Protectors, NRR 26 dB Green

This is a 2nd set purchased to my previous following post. Don't want to be without if I misplace the first set. These work great to reduce excessive noise while mowing with a 54' deck. : I purchased these comfortable earmuffs to originally use with my Oregon forestry/arborist safety helmet with face shield, when using my gasoline powered chain saw. I broke my original supplied attached to helmet earmuffs during a cold winter night when using with my snow thrower. I own a pair of over the head earmuffs that I could adjust the ear cups vertically, while placing the head band behind my head. But the top of the earmuffs would strike the bottom of the helmet when worn. I just finished mowing one (1) acre lawn and these and they work much better than any of my others. So, I just now ordered a second pair from the same vendor. I have to heavily trim my trees and prune my many lilac bushes next week using my different sized chain saws, and reciprocating saw. I already wear hearing aids, no desire to lose additional sensitivity.

I use them every day around load generators and they work great! Would 100% buy them again! And they don’t feel strange on being they are behind the neck fit. They seal up very well around my ears!

Cancels noise decently. I still wear earbuds underneath to dampen noise. The band starts to hurt your head after a while.

The ear protectors are of excellent quality and function. They're perfect for mowing and using other small engine equipment. The behind-the-neck style allows the wearing of a sombrero style hat while working in the sun. My AirPods Pro even fit inside the protectors so I can still hear notifications or listen to music.

Comfortable fit and noise reduction

I used these at work and once I retired i bought my own for anything noise! Cutting grass, wood worker, chain sawing etc... Great if you have hearing aids!! If you have to put muffs on then off several times, these work fantastic over in the ear corded ear plugs, that fall on the ground etc... Great product

I have been using a pair of cheap-o ear muffs with earplugs for a few years for lawn mowing and using a chain saw. They worked okay but I felt there was room for improvement, so I shelled out for these. Right away I noticed these were significantly quieter. Unfortunately, after working for a while, I also noticed that these were much more prone to slipping down when I built up a sweat. They are heavier than my cheap-o's, and I guess my medium size head and normal size ears are not the right combination to hold them up when they are lubricated by sweat. They should be fine in a cool environment of for non-strenuous activity. Mine are gathering dust.

I have to wear a big brimmed hat due to a tendency toward skin cancer. I used to have to jury rig something that would let me wear the hat and still have ear protection. Never worked well. These are great. Comfortable and block out a lot of mower noise. They also let me wear my ridiculous hat without a problem

Provide a good insulation, and is fitting really good and tight, but the only thing is that you have to be worn all time, or you have to carry on your hands when is not required anymore.

Die Ohrenschützer sitzen nicht besonders gut bei mir. Wenn man schwitzt, rutschen sie ein wenig nach unten sodass sie am Rand der Ohren drücken. Nach einiger Zeit nicht mehr aushaltbar, es tut richtig weh. Der Schallschutz wird auch schlechter wenn sie rutschen. Man kann die Ohrenschützer verkehrt herum aufsetzen, sodass der Bügel nicht im Nacken ist, sondern oben am Kopf wie bei normalen Schützern. Der Schallschutz ist so noch besser, rutschen tut nix mehr, allerdings ist der Metallbügel auch nach einiger Zeit sehr unbequem am Kopf. Der Schallschutz an sich ist recht gut, die Passform macht das aber zunichte. Evtl für sehr große Personen mit dickem Nacken besser passend. Artikel kommt aus den USA, Lieferzeit ist 2-3 Wochen.

Blocks the sound really well and fits comfortably on small to medium build people. Value for money could be better but you do pay for a nice 3M product in the end.

Aislan muy bien el ruido y son cómodas parabtrabajar

The band behind the head is fantastic, never buy another over the head type, doesn't interfere with a face shield or hat. everyone should have at least one of this type. save your ears and your eyes with a face shield. This type is about impossible to find in regular stores.
