I don't have much to add beyond whats been said, very good at what they do, definitely not a gimmick.
BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WEAR EAR PROTECTION!
Tinnitus is horrible and it DOES. NOT. GO. AWAY.
EVER.
Not even for a minute.
You're ears are like your teeth if you don't look after them you will regret it. Earplugs are your toothbrush. You wouldn't 'tough out' not brushing brushing your teeth, don't do it with your ears.

Yep I have tinnitus, drives me nuts. Misspent youth at all night raves to blame!
I use ear defenders with my angle grinder. It's properly noisy.Quote:
