Re: How do I get earplugs to stay in my ears?
I find this type are only really good for single use. They don't seem as 'soft' once they have been squashed an expanded once or twice!

Re: How do I get earplugs to stay in my ears?
So far I've tried normal bullet shaped ones and e-a-r soft's with no luck. Next on the list is the rhubarb and custard ones, just need to find somewhere that sells them per pair rather than 200.

All that said, I'm a little biased, cause I can get them for free! Last edited by Philbo; 19-10-09 at 09:21 PM. |

Re: How do I get earplugs to stay in my ears?
I just got 20 pairs of the rhubarb & custard plugs on ebay for £3.30 inc postage. They arrived today so I haven't tried them yet. I won't know how good they really are until I do a long motorway ride on Friday.

Re: How do I get earplugs to stay in my ears?
I have a "free supplier" of the E-A-R Classic plugs, though always had the problem of the right plug popping out when putting my lid on.
I bit the bullet at the BMF (Peterbourgh) and ordered some custom ones from:- http://www.customearprotection.co.uk A friend and I wangled a discount for buying a pair each, which worked out £35 a pair. Took about 5 mins to take the impression and the finished product arrived on my door step three weeks later. Perfect fit (obviously) and fit flush therefore don't touch the lid when putting it on. I think they're about the same noise reduction as properly fitting E-A-R plugs yet ten times more comfortable. Washable too! Big thumbs up from me. |

Re: How do I get earplugs to stay in my ears?
Being fair Dave, the chap said the "show Price" was £40, so I don't know the regular price.
Maybe worth geting a few folk together who're interested and haggle a discount. |
