Do any of you use electronic ear protection and do you like it?



Thanks again.

Ear pro (protection)? Pretty easy... get plugs and muffs.

Eye pro? Look at ESS. There is another thread labeled oakley that I posted on this morning about ESS ICE glasses. They make prescription inserts for them as well. Very tough, and offer excellent ballistic protection. Check them out.

I've been using electronic hearing protection since the 80s - the very first offerings BIT. The newer stuff can be extremely good. Like anything else - you get what you pay for.

As for eye protection, one of my employers issues a variety of brands. Regardless, I will only use Oakley if I have any say in it. I've worn / used / shelled out of my own pocket for Oakleys for years.
