Bluetooth hearing protection ear muffs recommendation Login/Join

I want to get a pair of bluetooth ear muffs to use while cutting the grass. I dont need anything crazy. Just some hearing protection and ability to listen to music. I would like to keep the price around $50.

In my search so far these 3M work tunes seem to be the only ones I'm my price range.

Is there another pair you recommend?

I use these with Foam tips on them. https://www.amazon.com/Samsung...+wireless+headphones

The ear muffs I used were too hot when I used them while cutting grass.

I use those 3M Work Tunes ones you linked and they have worked great for me. I only listen to podcasts and audiobooks with them but those sound every bit as good on the muffs as they do with the Apple ear buds. Now that I think of it, I paired them with the TV in my family room too and have used them for that with no issues.

I have the 3M Worktunes and they are good for the price. I do have some issues at times with audio cutting out but I am not sure if it is my phone causing the problem of the headphones. It only happens when I have the phone in my back pocket. When I put the phone in the cup holder on my riding mower there are no issues.

I have the 3M WorkTunes with the radio and bluetooth. Amazon says I purchased it on December 18th of 2015.

I absolutely love them. Cuts the noise while ensuring I'm not blowing my ears out with my podcasts or talk radio shows.

My only complaint is that I occasionally get interference on bluetooth due to the lawn tractor's engine. Though it may be a problem with my phone's weak bluetooth transceiver. (Motorola Z Force)

For that reason I highly recommend the radio and bluetooth version. If the bluetooth starts acting up I can just switch to radio. I try to sync my mowing schedule with Tribe games for just that purpose.

My only other complaint is that I keep forgetting to take them to racetracks.
