🤔

yeah but they offer.... 18 db protection?

i think it's like 24

but not great

If you turn them off yeah

@AnEvalach What part is learned helplessness? Because I'm feelin some of that and it ain't easy to fight off.

you're still listening to loud as fuck gunshots

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learned_helplessness

the DB has just been reduced so you're not deaf

the fact that you're allowing yourself to suffer the negative consequences of working in a shitty chink shithole and do nothing about it

Yeah that's fair to some extent. Like I said though, I'm looking for a new job already.

If you don't wear foamies, or at least buy some cheap overears at walmart/home depot tomorrow, I think you're beyond help

you can still get tinnitus wearing comtacs

you're still being subjected to "loud" sounds

gotta double up nigga

Fuck really? ok. Well, if I can still hear people talking with comtacs + foamies then that's fine.

not doubling up is pretty cringe tbh

Is it necessary for 100 Db environments, or just gun shots?

my ar knocks my ears slightly off my head pretty frequesntly

everything helps

You know they make electronic ear pro that isn’t comtacs right

>inb4 howard leight impact

peltor sports

🤷🏿

those walker things

yeah, but I wanted to get something good really good.

is it worth buying anything that isn't impacts or peltors

impacts give such good value

The sport peltors are fine

what's the difference?

I would like to be able to use them with my radio if possible.

They’ve got a 3.5 mm jack, I’m sure they make some stupid ptt that would work with a baofeng

you can get sordins for cheap and splice the LEMO cable

But if your primary concern is industrial usage I think they make muffs that are less tactical and more designed for long periods of constant loud noise

This machine does the same thing as one of the main machines I'm assigned to. Ours is bigger, has an extra system to lay reflective film over the bus bars, and is set to run at a much, much higher speed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRdm3YosL7M

The shooting muffs are for reducing short instances of very loud noise

Hearing defenders

Not sustained moderately loud shit

hey babe

3m has an industrial line iirc

@CTL road workers are guccier than poorfags
