Trying to be considerate, I tried to browse old posts on my usenet server
related to this topic, and I noticed that the product

Peltor H10A Professional Noise Canceling Earmuff

was used by some. It seems "healthy" to me not to have everything
completely muted, and being able to hear voices at normal voices would be
a plus (though I'm not sure how well this product would help satisfy
either of those goals).

Is the one above a "good, safe choice"? Any other models you might
recommend I consider? I suppose if I had a pair, I might start wearing
them when I mow the lawn, though that idea hadn't occurred to me before.

Thank you,
Bill


I am working on getting the Ryobi Tech 4 hearing protectors. They
comfortably fit my brain size. I have a set or Peltors IIRC but when I
swallow or or yawn the muffs open up and the noise comes right in.
Be sure and try on what ever you buy.


Thank you for the heads-up. I wear glasses, and I should be wearing safety
goggles too. I'm intend to try the pair from Rockler's. I am actually
surprised
Rochler and Woodcraft do not offer more selection in hearing protection.
