Hi TTG
It's better than putting my hands over my ears, and I always have some clean cotton in my pocket ,,, it works for me
the normal ear plugs are a pain to use they just don't feel right in my ears,,, the ear muff type work well but are not best for me ,, I wear glasses all the time and they put pressure on the bows and give me a real pain after about a hour or so.
I must have tried 20 pair or so over the years but all do the same,,same with ear plugs so now I use cotton....it knocks the DB down but I can still hear the machine run..and that's needed when using the router..it has a voice and it tells me what I need to do ...push less or more...
