Howard Leight by Honeywell Impact Sport Sound Amplification Electronic Shooting Earmuff 1034490

Product Information

Please note some manufactures will no uphold warranty on products if the buyer brought the item from another country Microphone and electronics quality: Although Impact Sports are among the cheapest electronic earmuffs, their audio quality isn’t considered the worst. They feature two directional microphones – one on each ear – contributing to a good audio experience. They are extremely comfortable to wear for hours on end because of the padded ear covers. If you don’t like them, you can return them within 90 days. If they break, they are also covered under warranty for up to 1 year. However, they likely won’t break within 1 year, as they are relatively durable, even when they are being used frequently. 7. Act Fire Ear and Hearing Protection Earmuffs Walkers are considered one of the best brands for shooting electronic earmuffs, so it makes sense that earmuffs made by Walker would be on this list multiple times.

When the electronic ear protection is switched on, it employs built-in directional microphones that amplify ambient sounds to a safe 82dB. This allows you to hear important commands on the range and crucial environment sounds when hunting. For additional shooting hearing protection, it also actively listens and automatically stops amplification when loud impulsive sounds like firearm discharges exceed 82dB. One of the things we missed in the Howard Leight Impact Sports earmuffs is the absence of sound compression technology. In ear-pros with sound compression, the sound fades out to a tolerable level instead of muting off completely. This makes it easier to converse with a fellow shooter as you keep firing leads to the other end of the range.Howard Leight Impact Sport and Impact Sport Bolt are both popular models of hearing protection earmuffs, but there are a few notable differences between them: Features patented Air Flow Control technology for optimal attenuation across virtually all industrial noise environments The primary task of any protective earpiece is to neutralize the noise and save your inner ear from harsh environments. So, we would get into that aspect of Howard Leight Impact Sports earmuffs first before discussing other specifications. The muffs can suppress the noise by 22dB once the surrounding noise levels exceed the 82dB threshold.

Directionally placed stereo microphones even help you hear where the sound is coming from. There is a built-in AUX input that accepts 1/8" (3mm) stereo plug (patch cable included) to connect an MP3 player, radio, or other audio. The Impact Sport Electronic Earmuffs feature an automatically shut-off that activates after 4 hours to preserve battery life. Sound amplification allows wearers to hear important communication - alarms/warning signals, co-workers' voices, etc. Some high-end models have Bluetooth compatibility to serve this purpose, but the corded headphone idea appeals to us more since it will save some precious battery life. Stylish Air Flow Control Technology (AFC) - Allows you to hear normal conversation which occurs at low frequencies but delivers protection at the high frequencies. Non-deforming outer headband withstands rough treatment in the toughest workplaces, while the padding makes it comfortable for all day wearThe Impact Sport Electronic Earmuffs feature directionally placed stereo microphones that even help you hear where the sound is coming from. The built-in AUX input accepts a 1/8" (3mm) stereo plug to connect an MP3 player, radio, or other audio. The earmuffs have an automatic shut-off that activates after 4 hours to preserve battery life.

Folding design reduces earmuff size by 50% and allows for compact storage; belt clip is included for convenient hands-free carriage. The sound amplification features make this even easier — given how easily the wearer can still hear, it’s possible to forget that you’re wearing hearing protection at all. That said, the overall audio quality is very good, to say the least. Honeywell marketed a digitized version of Impact Sports ear-pros, which goes by the name of Impact Sports Bolt. This model boasts a reduced cut-off time, but it failed to replicate the acoustic brilliance of its predecessor. Design & Comfort The low-profile ear cups angle sharply to ensure plenty of clearance when shouldering long guns, and they fold up neatly into the adjustable headband for convenient storage. These earmuffs come in a Multi-Cam color and have an NRR of 22 dB. They are an ideal choice for those who want to protect their hearing while still being able to hear important sounds. The way the R-01526’s automatically fold up for transport and storage is quite useful. More useful still is how accessible the battery compartment is — it’s at the top of one of the cups and can be easily opened without the use of any tools.

When you turn on these earmuffs and listen, everything around you, including your own voice, will seem like it is coming from an electronic device rather than your body. It won’t be fun to listen to, so you won’t want to use these earmuffs when trying to hear prey that is in the area while you are hunting. Additional Features: The design and the Air Flow Control Technology (AFC) are the same as the standard Impact Sport model. Sound Amplification and Processing: Howard Leight Impact Sport Bolt offers 5x sound amplification, with advanced digital compression circuitry for ambient sound amplification. On the other hand, Walker Razor Slim provides omnidirectional sound amplification with sound-activated compression.
