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

Product Information

Built-in directional microphones amplify range commands and other ambient sounds to a safe 82dB, providing more natural listening and enhanced communication. Your hearing is extremely important, so it is important that you have something to protect it when you are shooting a gun. Avoid overprotection in minimal noise environments – in selecting the best earmuff for your situation, consider noise levels and your need to communicate with co-workers or hear warning signals on the job 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 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.

Unfortunately, this makes it difficult to wear safety glasses or other accessories that might rest above your ears while wearing the R-01526.

Product Details

Full Situational Awareness:: Stereo microphones amplify range commands and environmental sounds to a safe 82 dB. Air Flow Control Technology (AFC) - Allows you to hear normal conversation which occurs at low frequencies but delivers protection at the high frequencies. These items normally require Identification (Passport) or a firearms / Shotgun certificate before they are handed over. Shotguns, Rifles, Airguns and Moderators are usually good examples. When purchasing an “Only available in store” item you are in effect paying a deposit for your goods. In most instances you can choose to collect your item from our store or if It's a firearm you can collect it from a 3rd party gun dealer. The latter may be at an additional cost to yourself.

Includes 2 AAA batteries; automatic shut-off feature after 4 hours increases battery life; approximately 350 hours of battery life. Includes AUX input and 3.5mm cord to connect with your music device or radio scanner or another audio source. Digital Sound Compression - Five times sound amplification enhancing low level frequencies. Ideal for indoor shooting, outdoor and hunting for amplification of sound while reducing harmful noise from impulse sounds such as gun fire. The Howard Leight R-01526 Active Sport Headset features a pair of compact ear cups attached with an overhead band. The cups are designed to fold up into the band for easy storage and transit. Each ear has its own microphone, allowing the sound amplification features to function independently and deliver true stereo.The R-01526’s offer (and deliver!) a noise reduction rating of 22. Without delving too much into specifics, this makes them perfect for hobby use. If you actually work at a gun range, you might want to consider a pair with better noise reduction. For other uses (construction, factories, etc), 22 dB will likely be more than enough. Best of all, the hearing protection functions perfectly fine with no batteries — all you’re losing out on is the sound amplification. Sound Amplification Protection from hazardous noise: These earmuffs are specifically designed to shield users from hazardous noise, such as gunshots, while still allowing them to remain connected to their environment. They have a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 22 in both on and off modes, which indicates they can reduce noise by 22 decibels. This means that all the obnoxious and abrasive noise will be reduced to a safe listening range while still allowing the user to hear the surrounding environment. So if you’re in law enforcement, a gun aficionado at the shooting range, or simply looking for a fun and creative way to blow off some steam, Howard Leight Impact Sport is perfect for indoor range shooting and other sports. Design

The biggest downside to the R-01526’s design is the way the full sized cups interfere with eye protection. These muffs use a healthy amount of tension to stay on your head and provide proper noise reduction. Given these features, the Impact Sport Bolt offers excellent value for money in the realm of electronic earmuffs. However, one potential downside could be the absence of explicit information about the product’s material quality and lifespan, which could affect its durability. Despite this, their advanced features and well-known brand reputation make these earmuffs a solid choice for many users. Are The Bolt Earmuffs Bluetooth? Please note some manufactures will no uphold warranty on products if the buyer brought the item from another country Electronic ear muffs like these vary mostly in how good the audio is: both the speakers used and mostly, in the microphones and electronics. Although the Impact Sports are among the cheapest, their audio quality isn’t the worst. I’d say that the audio is slightly better than the cheaper Caldwell e-Max muffs, MUCH better than the Walker Razors, and much worse than the Peltor 3M Sport Tacticals (which is ok, because they cost 3X more). Volume is great and the ability to directionally locate where a sound is coming from is OK. 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.

AUX input and 3.5 mm connection cord allows you to connect to an external MP3 player, scanner or other audio device. The batteries on this unit last for quite a while. If you went shooting once or twice a week you could easily get a month or more out of a single pair of AAA’s. They’re easy to change and easy to find at any store.
