GBS Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Does anyone have an opinion on the quality or fitness for purpose of the above two models of electronic ear defenders? I appreciate the Peltors are bulky but they appear to be a quality product whilst the Deben items look a little cheap. Little in it price wise. Deben - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Deben-Electronic-Defenders-Slimline-Stereo/dp/B004DN9NFI Peltor - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000Q04MRG/ref=dra_a_rv_bb_ho_xx_P3110_100?tag=dradisplay0bb-21&ascsubtag=5b9e3c13604e811a4753c8c4f25afc65_S Put me right if i'm worng. Thanks, GBS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve d Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Ive got the Sportac, dont think theyre bulky at all, mate has the Deben. We're both happy and they both do the job theyre designed for. Weve both had them 5+ years with no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simjakcal Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 i use the howard leight ones which are very good..worth a look ! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Howard-Leight-by-Honeywell-1013530-Impact-Sport-Electronic-Folding-Earmuff-NEW-/141974614281?hash=item210e58b109:g:aJsAAOSwr41XIc4M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisPCarter Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 I've got the Sportac's and very happy with them, they seem well put together and come with 2 sets of covers in green and orange. Haven't tried the others but they both seem OK from what i've heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moorvale55 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 I've used the Deben for several years now and have had no problems with them. Very good for picking up "normal" sounds as well. I can recommend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Sportac love them not bulk work well batteries last about 3 month I wear them nearly every day so most will get longer I expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walt1980 Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 +1 for the Howard Leights! Nice n slim! 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig83 Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Iv used Peltor for the last 8 years of my career. It's certainly the toughest and well made. My set have been to three different war zones, and used for numerous shoot days....been soaked, been subject to extreme heat. And still they work....enough said really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
