The technology is too young, even the big brands like Jabra aren't that good

plus > can't swap out bluetooth batteries

I swear tech companies are getting more and more greedy, before almost every stuff like this came with a battery latch door so could could swap them out

all it would take is to add a battery housing mechanism with a latch type door or something

for a lot of bluetooths that would suck ass

any sports type one would be more susceptible to dust and moisture

or like a pin type battery tray that phones use

that's what those rubber things are for

I forgot what they are called,

gasket?

muh ipx7

Crap, then are there any waterproof wired ones?

no

there is no waterproof earphone

only water resistant

do you *need* good sound quality

trust me once you use a good quality can it's hard to go back

I mean, not necessarily, just acceptable should be alright too

the Mpow Flames have served me very well for liek 6 months at work

sounds meh but i only keep one in at work

battery is like 7ish hours

they're ipx7 iirc

Otherwise in general what are some very sturdy earphones, he needs something that'll last

And thanks, I'll look into those

look at the reviews

in headfi or something

yeah, def do your research

i only bought these because of the amazon reviews

@NotaJew that guide is just what I needed, thanks

or just hack apart a 3m hear protection set and stick headphone drivers int hem

would require some handy work tho

nah we have to listen to our names being called out and shit constantly

when shit gets backed up or you're needed elsewhere

then you'd need active noise cancellation that filters out noise and lets voices in
