Two way radio earpiece

[corylus]

Anyone have any experience on the above for occasional use inside normal Peltor ear defenders?

 

For the radios we use (icoms) I can get D shape, acoustic tube or small in ear ones.

 

Any advice gratefully received

I just use the acoustic tubes, with the formed inner ear shape so it sits snug. Never have a problem with it falling out or not hearing radio. Parts are cheap enough to experiment to suit yourself.

hi Andy

You put me on to these and i agree they are very good

We are getting on well with the set up you recommened

Thanks again for your help :thumbup:

Do these things work 4 way? I was thinking of some of the crane and winching work we do these would be ideal especially if they are not obtrusive .

Yes they do.

 

I got 3 from Crystal Radio Systems, helpful and a fair price.

 

Thanks for the replies, will order a tube from the above, shortly.

FWIW......Couldn't decide on which type so bought both D type and acoustic tube.

 

I much prefer the D type as they sit happily under helmet ear defenders (as does the tube) BUT you can hear normally when ear defenders are off, whereas with the tube you still have one ear effectively blocked to ambient sounds.
