Etymotic EB1 and EB15 noise cancelling earplugs


Etymotic has developed a pair of earplugs that protect your hearing against things like loud explosions and gunfire. The EB1 and EB15 Electronic Blast PLG Earplugs, retailing for $449 and $499, respectively, are aimed toward buyers such as hunters, musicians and soldiers -- folks who are exposed to loud noises and need protection. Hit read more for details.
The analog earpieces are powered by a 312 hearing-aid battery and will last three weeks. There's no on/off switch -- just a high and low gain control. High gain is used for environments that require an amplification and the opposite applies for low gain. In other words, if a soldier is out on the battlefield and needs to hear an enemy inside a house, he'd switch to high gain to generate a louder sound. The difference between the plugs is simple: the EB1 is for people who are going to be around one-off noises and the EB15 are for those who are going to be exposed to prolonged noises. We got a chance to test out the plugs on the loud show floor and we gotta say, the difference between high- and low-gain modes is easily recognizable and we feel like these earplugs will make superb head-hole protectors. Plenty of complicated graphs and numbers in the gallery below.

  1. I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your
    site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so
    people could connect with it better. Youve got an
    awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures.

    Maybe you could space it out better?

  2. I'm not sure exactly why but this blog is loading incredibly slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end? I'll check back later on and see if the problem still
    exists.

  3. With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement?
    My website has a lot of exclusive content I've either created myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my authorization. Do you know any ways to help protect against content from being stolen? I'd certainly appreciate it.

  6. Hi! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers?
    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing
    several weeks of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any solutions to stop
    hackers?

  7. Woah! I'm really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It's simple,
    yet effective. A lot of times it's hard to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and appearance. I must say that you've done a amazing job
    with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely fast for me
    on Chrome. Outstanding Blog!

  9. When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each
    time a comment is added I get several e-mails with the same comment.
    Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
    Appreciate it!

  13. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though
    you relied on the video to make your point.
    You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste
    your intelligence on just posting videos to your blog when
    you could be giving us something informative to read?

  14. Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids.
    I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old
    daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell
    to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it
    pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!

    LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had
    to tell someone!

  16. Hey there! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4. I'm
    trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to resolve this
    problem. If you have any recommendations, please share.
    Appreciate it!

  17. Hi. I noticed your site title, "Blogger: Technology Guru" does not really reflect the content of your
    internet site. When creating your site title, do you believe it's best to write it for Website positioning or for your visitors? This is one thing I've
    been struggling with because I want good rankings but
    at the same time I want the best quality for my site visitors.

  19. This design is wicked! You most certainly know how to
    keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my
    own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Fantastic job.
    I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
    Too cool!

  25. Browsing digg.com I noticed your blog book-marked
    as: Blogger: Technology Guru. Now i'm assuming you book marked it yourself and wanted to ask if social bookmarking gets you a lot of targeted visitors? I've been considering doing some book-marking for a
    few of my sites but wasn't certain if it would generate any positive results. Thank you very much.

  26. Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that
    automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.

    I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
