Walkers GWP-RSEMPAT Razor Slim Electronic Muff - Black Patriot

Product Information

But there’s a catch. Foam earplugs only work well when they’re used correctly. If you fail to create a tight seal in your ear canal, they can’t do their job. Lots of people get tired of having foam crammed in their ears and skip ear pro altogether, in which case the rating doesn’t make a damned bit of difference. If active noise cancellation and comfortable padding will get you to use ear protection, I’m all for it. Q. How does active noise cancellation work?

When it comes down to it, this is just affordable hearing protection that gets the job done. What we don’t like about Walker’s Razor earmuffs All in all, these units both excel in shooting activities. The Walker Razor is better for indoor shooting since it has a higher reduction rating. The Impact Sport on the other hand is recommended for outdoor hunts since it is lighter and has a faster reaction time. So which is better? Impact Sport or Walker Razor A. Ear protection is usually compared using a noise reduction rating, which identifies how many decibels are removed from a given sound wave before it reaches the eardrum. Some foam earplugs are surprisingly effective––between NRR 22 and NRR 33. That’s comparable to larger, more expensive earmuffs. Walker’s Razor ear protection is designated as NRR 23.Battery life: I couldn’t find any data on the battery life, but I have only swapped out my batteries once in a year, so I’m cool with that (2 x AAA) The Walker Razor is the Impact Sport’s main competitor. It is also a low profile slim design hearing protection headset with a slightly higher noise reduction rating of 23 decibels. The extra protection is significant in extremely loud environments. It also has a fast reaction time of 2 milliseconds. However, when we tested the units, this model was faster than the Impact Sport which is a great plus. Its decibel rating of 82 also helps in hearing the environment around you. Because of this, the unit is great for hunting.

Noise reduction rating is the measure of how much the hearing protection lowers the noise level. This means that the higher the NRR, the more efficient the product is at dampening sound. In this category, the Walker Razor has the edge over the Impact Sport since it has a higher rating. It is rated at 23 decibels while the Impact Sports stands at 22 decibels. This one point difference may be negligible in some environments but really counts in extreme conditions such as indoor shooting. Both units can however be used for mowing, power sawing and hunting. Design A. These earmuffs use an over-the-ear design to muffle all sound. A forward-facing microphone in each one receives sound waves and transmits them to your ear with a small speaker, which can be controlled with a volume knob on the left earmuff. When a gunshot is detected, the earmuffs compress the signal to reduce its volume within 0.002 seconds. All this is powered by two AA batteries. Q. My ears are super tough. The Walkers Razor Slim electronic muffs have a 23dB noise reduction rating (the maximum noise level the hearing protector will reduce the sound) and offer the shooter a low-profile hearing protection solution.

Overall, the Walker Razorhas the edge over the Impact Sport for a number of reasons. It is more comfortable, durable and attractive. In addition, it also offers more value for money since you get a lot more features FAQs
