I use JLab Pros. They have the best battery life of anything I’ve had so far.

Festool noise-canceling earbuds.

 


 

Andrew Ogden

3M Bluetooth earmuffs—they have a 40-plus hour battery.

Noise canceling headphones do not protect your hearing! You must have NRR to protect. I wear 3M WorkTunes (24 db NRR).

Bluetooth-radio noise-canceling earmuffs—but not too loud, so I can hear the sanders run.

My Heavys—nothing compares. Heavy Metal Til I Die!🤘🤘💪😎

Always something … in a pinch l used to ball up damp t.p. and stuff it in my ears. I’m almost 60 now, and no tinnitus.
