Review: Amazingly good aids - After using these for a few weeks now, I have some things to write about these pretty good hearing protection, Bluetooth and ambient sound reinforcement devices. As with any larger ear plugs I find it easier to mildly dislodge them from my ear canal. This causes audio leakage and poorer sound reproduction in my ear. Not terrible, but I have never had Apple's product to compare. The Bluetooth is very nice and connects to my smartphone easily. The bass frequencies are a trifle lacking compared to some in ear Bluetooth devices I have used. The ambient (outside) sound reinforcement is surprisingly good. I like to use them on my old ears as it does tend to filter out distant sounds and focus on closer conversations allowing me to conduct a conversation in a noisy (restaurant) environment. The drawback is when connected to my phone... If I flip my phone and cause it to light up from a hibernate mode (not actually log in and use it), it drops ambient sounds briefly. It is easier to put away the phone to have a personal conversation than deal with these brief interruptions. This is probably my biggest issue with these ear buds. It is easy to shut off the Bluetooth and harder to turn back on during a phone call. Don't touch them during a call! Use the phone's volume control. Sound protection is OK. I expect they are along the lines of the cheap foam plugs for protection. If using extremely loud range time (large caliber rifle), they are a bit weak but will do for a couple rounds. I use my over ear protection device as well for loud stuff normally. Same goes with these devices. I may update my my review after more range time, I have only used these on the range once and even my ambient sound over ear protection took a few range days to utilize fully.
Review: Pretty sure I did irreparable damage to my ear! - I own 22 handguns in 11 different calibers; 8 shotguns in 4 different gauges, 16 rifles in 10 different calibers , and 1 SBR. Finding a firearm to try out these Caldwell E-Max Shadows was not an issue. I am thankful that out of all of my choices that I played it safe and used a .22 for my test. I had no issue connecting it to my phone; it paired right up. My music was loud and clear through them, if a little tinny. All the swipe guestures worked; double tap to start music, or to answer/end call, triple touch to activate Siri, swipe up or down to change volume, and tap and hold 2 seconds to activate pass through. All was working well until I took it out to the range. I turned on the passthrough so that I could hear my friend talking; everything was working well so far. I picked up my Glock 44 .22 with CCI Stingers and fired ONE round! My ears instantly began to ring; the Caldwell E-Max Shadows had not suppressed the sound ANY. Since my ears were already ringing, I went ahead and pulled them out and fired a round without them in at all; same noise level with or without them in. I took them out and put them in twice more testing them with one shot with, one shot without; they suppressed no sound at all on passthrough mode. They totally defeat the purpose of having the ability to hear others around you yet be able to muffle shot, as do my Walker Game Ear muffs. If you turn off the pass through, they work fine, but it is much cheaper to buy foam ear plugs for $2.00 a pack for that purpose. As I write this both of my ears are ringing. Very disappointed.

This product comes in different **Pattern, Color** options.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How is the active noise cancelling during indoor range shooting without music but with taking?**
A: The noise cancelling is supression rather than clipping, so ambient noise still comes through. However when ambient sound is active, playback through BT drops to a low/medium volume at most.

**Q: Can I connect with computer?**
A: Yes you can connect this product to any Bluetooth compatible device

**Q: How to turn it off? Does it automatically turn off after several minutes not being used?**
A: Yes. I believe they turn off after around 10 min of no use. I’ve had them in and Bluetooth/microphones off and they power down at around 10min of no use. They also turn on when removed from case and automatically pair to the last device, and turn off snd charge when put back in case. Very simple and user friendly.

**Q: Do these have a finder tone if one falls out and you can't find it?**
A: no

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for hunting. Worth getting!
*by C***Y on November 5, 2024*

I’ve had tinnitus for a long time, but I didn’t realize how bad it was until I had children when I couldn’t hear them crying in the other room. It made me want to protect my hearing even while I was hunting. I bought these with the hopes that they would work for hunting and boy do they! I’ve worn them in a pouring rain and it sounds like I’m standing with no earplugs but then when I take a shot, there’s no ears ringing. I’ve worn them at several outdoor shooting ranges and it’s so nice to be able to hear what people are saying but not the crack of the guns going off. It is a strange sensation wearing them because you still hear the sound of the firearm but no crack of the sound barrier. You can also listen to music on them because they are Bluetooth to your phone and I’ve mowed the lawn with them, but I found I prefer earmuffs for doing that, but using these it was still pleasant enough. It’s just not what I prefer and they have a speaker which allows you to hear the ambient noise around you which means you can take a phone call with them. I can’t say that I recommend it, but it is doable, and it’s nice to not have to dig through all the layers of hunting gear to answer your phone because you can do it on the earpiece. I don’t know why you would but you could turn them off and just use them as regular earplugs. They do have the same rating as the foam ones so there is that if the battery were to die not that I’ve had that happen. I’ve hunted for well over eight hours in one day and not had them run out of batteries and it’s often cold were I hunt which can be a problem for battery powered devices but it hasn’t been for these. I’d recommend these to anyone, and have done so. I will definitely buy another pair if and when these finally go.
