Peltor 97086 Tactical 6S Camo Hardwoods Hearing Protector, Green Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a competitive shooter and I have some hearing loss from my time served in the military, so hearing under normal conditions is a problem for me without wearing hearing protection. With normal hearing protectors on I can hear basically nothing.
Using the Peltor 97087's for the first time, I was amazed. I cranked the volume up all the way and could hear better with them on than I could with them off AND they completely muted all loud noises. I could have normal conversations with friends at competitions for the first time!
The fact that they are stereo (have a mic in each earpiece) is a great bonus as well since you can tell exactly where any sound is coming from.
They fit great and are comfortable, shooters and hunters will love these.
Only one minor negative is that you have to remember to turn the microphones off when you finish shooting but that doesn't take long to get used to. The first time you forget should be your last because the batteries will die in a few days. Of course they work great as normal ear protectors without the batteries but you lose the advantage of being able to hear while wearing them.
Advice; Keep a pair of spare batteries in your shooting bag!

Wearers can hear low level sounds up to three times louder than when wearing conventional protectors but when dangerous noises occur the electronic "valve" closes to reduce the noise.

MSA Safety Works 10062497 Winter Hard Hat Liner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I normally keep this thin winter liner in my hard hat all year round. I just fold it up around the suspension and push it up inside the hard hat during the summer. It seems to help keep my head cooler during the warm weather and also absorb sweat from my now balding head. It has a sewn on Velcro chinstrap and is long enough in the back to help keep the wind from blowing up your neck during cold weather, but it is not really waterproof unless you treat it with silicone or something similar yourself.
The only problem I have with this and what seems like all other hard hat liners I've tried, is that the manufacturers don't take into account for the knob being in the middle of the rear of hats with ratcheting suspensions. This is right where they put the Velcro strap to secure it to the suspension, so you either have to install the strap to one side or the other, which throws off the alignment of the liner and makes it slightly less comfortable, or not use the rear strap at all, which makes for a comfortable fit, but allows the liner pull out of the back every time you take your hard hat off.
A simple solution that would probably cost them all of 10-cents would be to use two Velcro straps at the rear of the liner, one slightly off center on each side, instead of just the one at dead center.
Overall though, I think it's a decent enough liner, considering the price.

Peltor 97069 President Hearing Protector Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was in the market for hearing protection because I work in manufacturing. At times, I spend many hours at a saw or in a Dust-room with a grinder and two blower-driven dust collectors. Ear-Protection is a necessity so I went shopping for a personal set. I narrowed my Amazon search to the President and the H10. I couldn't decide from the comments and pics/info so I bought both.
First of all, both Peltor-brand muffs are assembled by Aearo Company in Indianapolis. The President/H7F has a 26db NRR while the H10A is rated 30db (though Amazon lists 29db). On paper, this is supposedly a big difference. I have compared both under the same conditions and decided the President cuts more noise. I also like that the President is collapsible which keeps the inner cups clean and dust-free on breaks. This may not matter if you were using these exclusively for the firing range. Considering comfort, the H10A clasps tighter on my Eustachian tubes but you get used to that nagging with any muff. ohhh. With the President, I have experienced all-day comfort (worn multiple times non-stop through an 8-hr shift) including use with mp3player ear buds.
In conclusion, The President wins for quality and utility. If you're looking to save a few bucks, I guess go for the H10 (I use my pair exclusively at home when Gramps is cranking the TV). But I have used both, and my opinion is for the pricier, lower db rated President because it simply cuts more noise at work. This was unexpected and could be due to how the President fits my head better. I don't know about all that, I just know what I hear.

AAA 77 Piece Warrior Road Assistance Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While this product is endorsed by AAA, I would question how closely AAA reviewed the items included within the Warrior Kit. I bought this for my gilrfriend's car. I didn't want her to get caught unprepared on the side of the road while I am deployed and not around.
One day as we pulled up to our favorite pizza place, her front right tire went flat before our very own eyes. I didn't think much of it cause I knew she had a portable air compressor in the emergency road kit and we'd be able to get home. But while using it for the very first time the monitoring gage broke as I hooked it up to the tire. I was somewhat displeased, while the compressor still works and accomplished its purpose it's sad to see it broke its first time out. I have inspected the rest of the items in the kit. And while the bag is perfect size for the trunk, I do question the durability of some of the items in the kit, seems like they're single-use/disposable items. I had my own set of most of the items already I just liked the fact the bag neatly and conviniently packaged it all together. I think most of my own emergency tools will eventually replace the original ones provided in the nice little AAA bag.
Not to say the bag is full of crap. AAA does provide heavy-duty eight(8) gauge jumper cables while other kits only provide ten(10)gauge and the simple hand tools it provides are adequate for roadside emergencies. Yes, I have swapped out some of the items like LED batterry powered flashlights over the hand charged one (it's been my experience the megohmeter in them degrades over time), and leather work gloves over the fabric ones, but I still like this kit and I think my girlfriend will be better equiped to deal with most roadside emergencies with a neat little bag that will stay out of the way for the most part. As with all emergency equipment you have to stay on top of it's readiness or you might just get caught without it when you really need it.

AAA 65-Piece Winter Severe Weather Travel Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered two of these kits in anticipation for another cold Minnesota winter. I received it within 2 days since I have Amazon Prime. I am pleased with the kit overall, but am disappointed as well.
The kit seems sufficient with plenty to get by if I were to be stranded somewhere in the middle of no where. There's stuff to keep me warm, safe, and to signal others as well. Everything seems to be of mediocre quality, which is good enough for me.
However, it is different from what is described.
1) No Matches! The set of matches in both sets were replaced with another cheap candle due to shipping restrictions. What good are my 4 candles without matches?
2) The flashlight is NOT a hand-charged dual LED flashlight. Instead it is an ordinary cheap flashlight with two AA batteries.
The waterproof matches and the hand-charged flashlight were definitely selling points, and I'm not so sure I would have bought this particular set if it I knew these pitfalls ahead of time. Nonetheless, I'll keep them to save myself the hassle since I'm still better with the kits than without them.
I am planning on adding a few items before I chuck it into my trunk. Some hard candy, extra socks, some baggies to keep my feet dry in case I need to trudge through some snow, a container to melt snow in, chapstick, a medium sized and durable container of cat litter, and finally my trusty jumper cables.
