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

Product Information

Howard Leight Impact Sports earmuffs have a single battery compartment. Some headsets have dedicated battery compartments on each earpiece. In such models, there’s a possibility of one earpiece battery draining out before the other earpiece battery, which ultimately leaves you with one functional earpiece.

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 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. There is a one year guarantee against defects in material and workmanship. The guarantee does not cover damage caused by misuse, abuse or unauthorized modifications.

These muffs fold down to a compact shape for easier portability. You can just throw them into your range bag and still have more than enough space left to put your other gears. There’s no risk of damaging the circuitry when you fold the earmuff as the headband shields the vulnerable components of the unit.

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 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. The earmuffs retain the Air Flow Control Technology and the overall design of the standard Impact Sport model, which is known for its comfort. Products from Howard Leight generally have a good reputation for being robust and long-lasting. AUX input and 3.5 mm connection cord allows you to connect to an external MP3 player, scanner or other audio device. Howard Leight Impact Sport Ear Defenders. At the range or on the hunt, the Howard Leight Impact Sport Electronic Shooting Earmuff keeps you protected from hazardous noise and connected to your environment. It carries a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 22dB.The biggest thing that the Howard Leight R-01526 earmuffs have going for them is the price. While they’re not quite as feature rich, powerful, or comfortable as some other earmuffs on the market, they boast a stunning array of features and a competitive low cost. Great clarity of ambient noise — (Perhaps the best for understanding speech among similar earmuffs) 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. AUX input allows connection to external MP3 players or other audio devices for additional listening Full Situational Awareness:: Stereo microphones amplify range commands and environmental sounds to a safe 82 dB.

Sound Amplification - Ambient sound is amplified safely to 82 dB to deliver superior directional sound quality in stereo. 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. 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. The Impact Sport has a volume control, allowing you to adjust the level of amplified sound and make it even louder than it would be were you not wearing protection. Automatically shuts off loud impulse noise to a safe 82dB while amplifying conversation and range commandsThe microphone electronics does a fantastic job of giving you superb navigational sound consciousness. It differentiates between gunfire and other sounds, singles out the gunfire noise for alleviation, but allows natural sound to come through. This is a crucial feature for following range instructions or maintaining communication with others while hunting. This problem isn’t unique to this set of hearing protection, either — most full cup muffs will interfere with glasses in some way. You may want to bring your favorite pair of safety glasses to a local gun store and try on various kinds of hearing protection before making a decision about what type is best for you. Hearing Protection and Battery Life 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:

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. Finally, a 4 hour automatic shutoff protects the two AAA batteries from being drained unnecessarily. Please note some manufactures will no uphold warranty on products if the buyer brought the item from another country 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 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.And no need for a Howard Leight Impact Sport battery replacement—these earmuffs function off of two AAA batteries.
