Clean Energy and Recycled Material
In terms of sustainable power generation, the patented PowerfoyleTM solar cell technology is a real gamechanger. The design enables converting both natural and artificial light into clean electricity, charging the in-built lithium-ion battery, keeping the ear protectors ready when needed. What’s more, the world’s first self-charging ear protector headset is made of recycled plastics. Readily available spare parts ensure easy reparability. And OTA firmware updates increase the product lifespan.
Crisp and Clear Communication
The 3M ear protectors come with Bluetooth® MultiPoint technology that lets you connect two external devices. Even in extremely noisy work environments, the protectors turn your workplace into a pleasantly quiet office as the in-built noise-cancelling microphone enables hands-free crisp and clear communication. This helps you stay focussed and protected. Also, you don’t perceive wearing ear protectors as something that inconveniences you.
User-defined Adjustments to Surroundings
Moreover, the new protective headset features microphones for ambient listening (AL). Different settings ranging from very low to very high noise levels enable adjusting the device to any given scenario. The push-to-listen (PTL) feature allows you to listen to what happens around you without having to take the ear protectors off. Pressing the button temporarily deactivates Bluetooth streaming,activates the AL microphones and lets you know what’s going on and what people are saying next to you.
Easy-to-Use – Manually and via App
The headset comes with large-size buttons to make it easier to use when wearing gloves. Besides the On/Off switch, the device features large +/- volume control buttons. In addition, there is a multifunction button that activates a range of function presets in the 3M Connected Equipment app. The setting of these functions can be changed via a user-friendly graphics interface on your smartphone or tablet. The app also allows checking the current battery level and selecting different streaming profiles.
