Find Best Price at Amazon"Most of my shooting is done at indoor ranges; and everyone knows that gunfire (or any loud noise) is more severe in an enclosed environment. In my set of Impact Pros, the volume needs to be cranked up almost to full maximum in order to attain a "normal" level of hearing, and it seems to me that there is also an unusually high amount of background hiss. As far as "cutting out" when there is a sharp spike in the noise level, though, the electronics in the Impact Pro are wonderful. If the unthinkable happens and I really do have to press that trigger one unfortunate night, I'd prefer to come out on the other side with my hearing still intact; but the other 'plus' about the (electronic) earmuffs that is often overlooked is the sound amplification. Howard Leight does not market these as "tactical" hearing protection, so it would be unfair of me to rate them as such. So would I recommend the Howard Leight Impact Pro earmuffs to my best friend or family members? Some misguided individuals will claim that the low profile makes them better suited for long gun use than the full size Impact Pro; i.e. that the low profile design doesn't interfere with their cheek weld. What I know for a fact, though, is that bigger guns make a bigger boom, and I'd much rather be wearing these Impact Pro muffs than the Impact Sport when I'm shooting a big-bore rifle/shotgun... or worse, when I'm standing NEXT TO a person shooting one at the indoor range! As a "graduation present", I bought her a pair of these Howard Leight Impact Pro earmuffs. :-) FYI: I also bought my daughter-in-law the ESS ICE NARO 2x Eyeshield Kit as part of the graduation present."
"I know that there are a lot of reviews about this item but I wanted to share my experience having purchased both the Impact Pro and the Impact Sport (R-025024) model Howard Leight by Honeywell R-02524 Impact Sport Sound Amplification Electronic Earmuff, Black. They look bulky and if they did not have the same brand name you would think that the Impact Pro is a much more inferior product than the Impact Sport. When you put the Impact Pro on and raise the volume all the way to high, the sounds are not louder than what you would hear without them while the Impact Sport amplify the sounds and you can hear better. They are also enormous compared to the Impact Sport (see attached photos) and they do not fold nicely as the Impact Sport do. I also find both the Impact Pro and the Impact Sport very comfortable and do not feel that I want to take them off after a couple of hours of wearing them but comfort varies from person to person and you may find them more or less comfortable than I do. In my opinion, the Impact Pro are made for the indoor shooting range and the Impact Sport are made for outdoor activities and would most likely be great for hunting because they amplify the sounds around you while they seal your ears from the gun shots as long as you are not shooting high caliber pistols of rifles."
"CONS: This set has poor sound reproduction, quite dull, so buying them for music is disappointing. On balance, for me (I don't listen to music while shooting), they are very good, and I appreciate the further noise reduction, their basic function. Will normally use the smaller, 22 db reduction units outdoors unless I know someone brought their "cannon", and these indoors."
Care of Hearing Protection. When you are exposed to sound levels in excess of occupational exposure or action limits, and sound levels cannot be reduced to less than an 8-hour Time Weighted Average (TWA) of 85dBA, hearing protection should be used to protect you from work-related hearing loss. NRR SOUND TECHNOLOGY, ANSI S3.19 & CE EN521 CERTIFIED: Designed with 2 layers of professional noise dampening foam, high sealing solid cup and the unique double-shell, the ear muff offers a SNR 34dB / NRR 28dB (Noise Reduction Rating) for the ear protection. REDUCE THE NOISE AROUND YOU: The safety ear muffs can be used as a great ear protection for shooting, hunting, indoor gun range, racing, reading, concert, studying and operating machinery to protect hearing, especially suitable for work in construction and landscaping work.

Find Best Price at Amazon"Most of the hearing protection we use is rated around 24-27 dB reduction and that is pretty good. And if you do not think my profession needs a good set of hearing protection, ask my instructors that wear hearing aids now because even wearing hearing protection, unless its done correctly and of good quality, it can still cause you hearing loss over time. I have been wearing them on and off for several weeks now and can tell the difference between these and the ones the students use.If you are looking for a really great pair of noise reducing hearing protection in the non-electronic style, then these are the ones you should get, take it from a guy who wears them daily. We use electronic hearing protection on our ranges to make verbal commands easier to hear, but for flat out noise reduction, I would highly recommend these! Over all I would HIGHLY recommend these to you if you are looking for OUTSTANDING noise reduction hearing protection."
"I love them and would recommend them to everyone and anyone who has children with noise sensory issues!"
"I had received a personal email from the company checking that they had arrived and giving me some tips on their "comfort". I was very appreciative of the customer service given BEFORE I may of questioned the comfort of the ear muffs and I appreciated the follow up note after I responded to their message letting them know that their suggestion worked perfectly."
"I had the Pro For Sho Earmuffs on my Christmas wishlist, my fiancée seen them and needed some as well so he added a pair to his wishlist :) I got him a pair for Christmas and he got me a pair for Christmas!"
"I purchased these for my husband, who needed ear protection while at the shooting range. But, when I compared the decibel rating, and then the price, I thought they were worth a try!!"

The fabric is not as breathable as the nylon net-like material that the cheaper vests have on the back, and this may get sweaty and smelly very quickly if not (hand, not machine) washed regularly."
"Great for any boy that loves nerf."

"This retainer fitted my Maui Jim glasses just perfectly and, although it took a bit of getting used to the more rigid "wire" strap vs. the older "croakies" I had before, I love the tail-less design (tail was always a nuisance!)."
"I can't decide if I would prefer the tail over cinching them up every time I put the glasses on my nose but they work well and I will continue using them."

"This came in a nice case, was relatively easy to use (once I figured out how to put in the battery),and was reasonably comfortable to wear. 2) There is a lot of annoying high frequency sounds in a noisy place. But as soon as I got into any kind of noise, I was bombarded with high intensity, unpleasant sounds. Coming back from a trip I found my pockets empty--I had lost the hearing aid. It costs nearly three times what the Britzgo did, but has features that will make it much more useful: digital signal processing, noise and feedback cancellation, and most importantly--automatic gain compensation/compression."
"The medium size dome was already on the amplifier so I tried that first and worked with the 4 modes and the sound level of the TV until I had an acceptable voice coming in my ear from the amplifier, but soon the medium dome was bothering my ear -- it was in too far and when I removed it, it would turn inside out. I found that with the large dome the voices sound different than with the other two domes and when I pushed on the mode button and also adjusted the sound of the TV, I could get a really good sound that without having voices run together or garbled. I was so happy as I walked back down the hall -- I just felt more connected than I had before -- in fact, I never felt this connected with the expensive hearing aids. I have had the TV on all day because in order to get used to listening to sound through the amplifier and I have checked the TV's sound level throughout the day because I wanted to make sure it was not so loud it would disturb my neighbors. I can also hear the water running in the sink, the toilet flushing, answer the phone without removing earbuds, One day I was talking to a maintenance man I had called when I found water all over my floor in the corner of my bathroom. Note: I am practically deaf in my right ear and it does not help that ear at all, but I have a hearing problem in my left ear that is not severe and it really helps that ear."
"When I saw this product I was wary. She could hear me speaking in a normal voice even from another room which hadn't been possible in years but best of all she could hear clearly and at a normal volume her TV and her beloved music."
"Gave one to my 87 year old father in law and his 85 year old wife, stopped the yelling in the house."

"I went into my friends half-acre backyard and had them flash me from over 100 feet away and it made me feel instantly disoriented and I looked away. However, I have not shot the gun with the light attached yet so I can't quite talk about its durability, though Streamlight seems to have good reviews on that end. Also, the other night the strobe feature stopped working but I just emailed them, I'll post an update to this review to see how that turns out."

"Of course, don't take my word for it- check one out at your local gun shops or big-box sportsman outlets and ask them to show you the light. The reason I cannot give this five stars is simply because I haven't owned either of my lights for more than a few months, will this hold the test of time and some abuse?"
