Tools and Hardware Reviews of Peltor 97044 Tactical 6S Active Volume Hearing Protector
Customer Review: Was great while it lasted.
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought the 6S headset several years ago through a discount house. They worked great, hearing better than with plain ears, but cuts out the blast of a gunshot nicely. The right earpiece stopped working this year. No visible battery corrosion on the contacts or anything like that, just stopped working. I figured I got my money's worth out of them though, they gave several years of good service. I'm going to try the Howard Leight set as a replacement, and keep the one-eared Peltor set to kick around in the glove box of the truck, for "emergency use".Customer Review: Peltor 6S Works for Me

Some people are having trouble with changing the battery. Just changing the battery in mine after non-use for a couple of years. Once you know how it is simple. Stick your forefinger under the ledge between the foam and the rubber ear muff at one end or the other. Pull upward gently until it gives. If you have trouble on one end, try the other end. Mine came loose easily and, voila, there were the batteries. Of course, you have to do both sides. They seem to do the job for me while shooting a Taurus 92 and a Ruger Ranch Rifle.
Customer Review: If you are a shooter, You Need This Product!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great product. I have used standard Peltor Hearing Protection for years. When I noticed the price on active hearing protection prices were coming down, I decided to get a pair. At $69.95 this was a great value.
Range testing proved that it was the best $69.00 I ever spent. You can actually hear better with these on! It keeps harmful noise out but allows conversation through. It blocked sounds from a 12 Gauge shotgun and from my 2-stroke weed wacker.
Great product at a great price.
Customer Review: Not for long term use
Summary: 3 Stars
These muffs work great for shooting and other short term uses. The electronics work well, allowing you to hear conversations and other low volume sounds while blocking loud noises. The spring steel headband holds the earpieces tightly, perhaps too tightly. After wearing them for a day of working with a chain saw it felt like I had had my head in a vice. I tried them again a week later with the same resulting headache. I don't use them now for anything that requires more than about 15 minutes of continuous wear.Customer Review: Excellent Hearing Protection
Summary: 5 Stars
I have purchased a pair for me and used them a number of times. After bragging to my wife about how good they worked she had to try them now we own two pair. We really enjoy using this product they work very well. I also purchased a pair for my brother-in-law he tried mine and liked them so he got a pair for X-mas. The best thing about them you don't have to take them off to talk to somebody and you can actually hear better with them on then off. If you purchase these I have no doubt you will be satisfied.
