    Can you use the in ear ones with the over ear ones for extra protection?



  2. Charles Miller on January 27, 2023 at 1:38 am

    I ended up getting the Walker’s from the Amazon link will let you know how range day goes



  3. Looking Intently on January 27, 2023 at 1:39 am

    Great review. Are there any over the ears over $50 that are worth the increase over the Walker Razor Slims?



  4. Og.Foxsniper on January 27, 2023 at 1:41 am

    Is it just me or do the decibullz i own fit perfect



  5. talkingalwayz on January 27, 2023 at 1:42 am

    Hello, was wondering if you could recommend a pair of ear protection 50 or under for indoor shooting, electric and pink in color. Ty



  6. A J on January 27, 2023 at 1:44 am

    Where can I find the second electronic headphones? I need to get those for band class.

    DO NOT BUY FROM AMAZON WHO SUPPORTED blm SCUM UNLESS YOU TO WANT TO SUPPORT blm SCUM TO.

    The SureFire Sonic Defender version you showed I’m the Amazon screenshot was a solid core, which gives 26 dB of noise blocking. However, the version you tested had the removable hearing plugs and I think two flanges on the hear inserts, which would make them the EP3 with 24 dB of protection. I’ve never tried them, but they do look interesting.

    Thanks for the review!



  9. Eliezer Vega on January 27, 2023 at 1:46 am

    Perfect, thank you for the advice, very good review



  10. Nobody Noone on January 27, 2023 at 1:47 am

    FYI: Those decibuls are not rated for shooting, they make an 80$ pair that are, but I have yet to hear anything good about them.



  11. Dan Africk on January 27, 2023 at 1:47 am

    If you paid less for the Impacts than the Walkers, sounds like you may have got one of the counterfeit models which was very common for a while. You can tell by checking the battery compartment- if there are springs rather than tabs, it’s counterfeit.
    There are some other subtle differences, but that’s the easiest one to check. If you go to the Amazon page, there are customer images showing the real vs counterfeit ones.



  12. Avatar Gunner on January 27, 2023 at 1:51 am

    Nice video. I was actually getting ready to buy my first electronic ear muffs which I was looking at peltor sport Range guard. I like to know can you use rechargeable batteries in these electronic ear muffs thanks



  13. Badland Genetix on January 27, 2023 at 1:52 am

    The first in ear set is the same style 3m is being sued for only it has a little extra rubber



  14. MAGA MAN on January 27, 2023 at 1:52 am

    If you buy from Amazon, you are funding the destruction of America.



  15. Luis R on January 27, 2023 at 1:53 am

    1:50 lol 😆



  16. Ember on January 27, 2023 at 1:54 am

    You should try the Earmor M31 or M32 if you want comms



  17. Jordy Gibbs on January 27, 2023 at 1:57 am

    What kind of jacket is that?



  18. Murk Lund on January 27, 2023 at 1:58 am

    helpful



  19. menacer26 on January 27, 2023 at 1:58 am

    I’m sure to be the odd man out here. I love the Hyken chair. I bought that chair for all my employees and we all love it. Also, I’m looking into the walker’s so thanks for the review



  20. Martin Duprey on January 27, 2023 at 1:58 am

    The decibullz would be better for outdoors



  21. Hal S on January 27, 2023 at 1:59 am

    I have both the Walkers and the Howard Leights and I agree with your findings. I’ve had the HL’s for 3 years now and they work great with long battery life. The Walkers beat them with the padded seal that goes around your ears. It’s much thicker and more comfortable, and it seals better around eyewear than the Howard Leights. I also think the Walkers are more comfortable and look better.



  22. Chris Argueta on January 27, 2023 at 2:00 am

    Your grading scale is ridiculously subjective.



  23. Michael Ramos on January 27, 2023 at 2:01 am

    Thanks for this Video It makes me decide for the Walkers razor, also you got a new subscriber.



  24. Toon zova on January 27, 2023 at 2:01 am

    Hey there would you say the Sonic defender’s are better than foam ear plugs? I currently use foamys at a power plant where I work but was looking for something better.



  25. GN0MEofWAR on January 27, 2023 at 2:02 am

    I recently bought the same pair of Walkers, they are definitely NOT for the range… Ive taken them to the range twice and the sound was still so deafening, I just went back to ear plugs. I haven’t shot with them out doors yet but I think that’s where they would be better suited, rather than indoors.



  26. Ray on January 27, 2023 at 2:04 am

    Tacklife are using the SNR system (34 ) , this is not NRR  !!



  27. Shang Wu on January 27, 2023 at 2:04 am

    Do the Walker Razor Slim Electronics have to have the batteries to work? I get that the batteries would be needed to be able to hear someone talk, but if you run out of battery power or forgot to swap out to new batteries before going out shooting, would they still reduce the noise of gun fire?



  28. Capt. Joli on January 27, 2023 at 2:05 am

    Good explanation. Thank you.



  29. Jim Rhodes on January 27, 2023 at 2:07 am

    What your title says and what you say in your opening monologue is contradictory.



  30. S OS on January 27, 2023 at 2:07 am

    Great content I used your link thank you for the great data points!



  31. HossCat 182 on January 27, 2023 at 2:08 am

    Man you got a Lotta “I don’t know and I’ve never tried and I have no idea, maybe you could find out for yourself buy it.
    Maybe YOU SHOULD try every aspect of what you’re talking about before you make a video on it, ………do you think?
    don’t just say it ah ah ah and expect for us to follow your “not really sure, I don’t know, maybe, kind ah, LEAD….. I mean you got a great video platform, but do the research man…… come on!
    It looks like you’re more interested in your YouTube status than you are your products that you’re rating.
    That’s a good way of becoming the guy that used to rate things on his channel.

    If this criticism helps……Great!
    if not……..well? never knew ya!



  32. BobaChris on January 27, 2023 at 2:16 am

    I use Peltor 100’s with the gel cushions. Switching to the gel made quite a difference since it seals around the ear better. The cushion probably made the difference between the Walkers and Howards.



  33. PR0bro on January 27, 2023 at 2:17 am

    I’m a newbie but would the aux port on the walkers work with coms?



  34. GoJo Dingo on January 27, 2023 at 2:17 am

    How quiet the world is???



  35. Anderson C on January 27, 2023 at 2:18 am

    There are silicon buds for better sleeping one can use that takes out up to 33 dB… e.g. Mack’s



  36. 2 greeks & a camera on January 27, 2023 at 2:19 am

    Who cares what they look like so long as they block the sound!



  37. Cktime ThirtyTwo on January 27, 2023 at 2:19 am

    Really wish you would have included the 3m Peltors



  38. WV591 on January 27, 2023 at 2:19 am

    you can use them to use the mower



  39. Journeycam on January 27, 2023 at 2:21 am

    To calculate the true dB protection; (NRR ratting – 7)/2. All ratings are lab ratings with perfect fit on smooth surface, & optimum pressure. Electronic features add nothing to hearing protection from gun shots. If electronic shut out response time is not supper fast, some the gun shot SPL could actually be amplified. Doubling up only adds 5dB to the highest level of protection of the 2 you are wearing. Best method for hearing protection for recreational shooting is to get inner ear without electronics that provide best comfort/fit and double up with electronic muffs for situational awareness with the best cheek well fit and adjust volume based on the degree of situational awareness you need. Protect your ears guys. Quad speakers, USB ports and Bluetooth are all good for home entertainment but you won’t be able to enjoy it if you lose your hearing at the range. Final point: hearing damage can occur from single events over 140dB and longer than 8 hours over 85. Damage is cumulative and happens even if the sound seems ”comfortable”.



  40. Charles Donahue on January 27, 2023 at 2:21 am

    I got the Walker’s and no way do they work by themselves for indoor shooting. I couldn’t stand the noise around me and had to leave. I’m going to have to find another earpiece to double up with.



  41. Ricky Burton on January 27, 2023 at 2:22 am

    Boring !



  42. Polo Lauren on January 27, 2023 at 2:23 am

    Wow, so you didn’t tryout the walker in door…wtf



  43. 2 greeks & a camera on January 27, 2023 at 2:26 am

    Thank you for this great review report.



  44. Six Shooter DhSprts on January 27, 2023 at 2:26 am

    Those fo sho ones just look like the cheap walkers lol.



  45. Mike De Leon on January 27, 2023 at 2:28 am

    Thanks for making this video. Didn’t find many choices when I searched up this. Fed a lot of useful info too.



  46. THE REAL KING FRANCES on January 27, 2023 at 2:30 am

    Who’s ears are worth $50? I’ll spend the extra money



  47. 𝙈𝙧.𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙢𝙖𝙣 on January 27, 2023 at 2:30 am

    I was planning on getting one of these frames and turning them into ultimate heaphones with noise cancelation!



  48. Crazy Will Tech Show on January 27, 2023 at 2:33 am

    Great information really appreciate it!



  49. BBA nAZ on January 27, 2023 at 2:34 am

    I have tried the ear buds and they are cumbersome and do not feel like they fully insert into your ear. I am in AZ so I am always trying to find a cooler way to wear hearing protection and the link above is the best sounding and coolest pair I have tried to date.



  50. Josh Langston on January 27, 2023 at 2:35 am

    Wow the howard leight went up to over $60
