Walker's Silencer Rechargeable Earbuds

I purchased these in March of 2024 and have been using them off and on since then. There are several features that I really like, e.g., being able to go from muting the ambient sounds to incrementally increasing it from zero to level 7 is great because that allows you to dial in the perfect mix to your liking. There are 4 modes that actually work and do make a significant difference as you toggle through them from Universal, Clear Voice, Power Boost and HF (High Frequency) Boost to get the better sounds for what you're doing. There's an amazing variable Sound Activation Compression (SAC) mode that is set by default and while your Ambient noise level is activated and say, a loud sound such as a gun shot, etc., occurs, it will automatically and instantly decrease that sound down to 24 db., which is rated at a Library Whisper Quiet level at 6 feet, then the ambient sound level returns back to the level you had set. I find this option exceptional when out shooting from the Range to the Field. However, one kind of irritating Con is that the wind is annoying even though they boast Dynamic Wind Reduction, but for the price and excellent quality of these, and I don't actually know what it would be if it wasn't reduced, it's something I can live with. The battery life is Ok, but one nice redeeming option with these is that they come with a portable recharging case, so if needed you can take a break and charge them back up even a few times if needed and that's a nice option to have in the field or anywhere you don't have another charging option. I've read a post or two thumbing down the option to swipe up or down on the buds for increasing/decreasing the ambient noise, but I didn't find that a minus if you take a few minutes and adjust your fine motor skills and with practice, I found that to be very convenient. The foam tips also I found to be a great fit and still comfortable if you take a few seconds and roll them between your fingertips to warm them up and then insert them in your ears and hold them in there for10 plus seconds to allow them to expand nicely which adds to their ability to muffle outside noise and helps them to be more comfortable. Overall, I give the Walker Silencer BT 2.0 Ear Buds a 5 Star rating (would actually be a 4.5 Stars because the Dynamic Wind Reduction feature doesn't really do a great job, IMHO) but not enough to drop full Star. I think the price, quality of materials and sound quality are superior to some of the other options out there I've tried and didn't like nearly as well.

These came completely dead. The batteries in them are broken and will not charge. I’ve confirmed this by putting a meter on it. Do NOT order this product it’s a complete waste of money and useless. It’s the biggest waste of money and biggest let down I’ve had on Amazon and certainly did not expect that sort of quality control from Walkers. I will not be using or buying anymore of these products.

I'm a USPSA Open gun competitor and as you would know the Open gun's are loud. With the comp on the end some RO's complain of the loudness, oh well. I've used Walker Razer ear muffs for a few years. After a Match the pressure to the sides of my head was just getting to be too much. So, found these on Amazon for sale at $127 and jumped on these.Used them for practice twice at 400 rounds each time and for about 3hrs a session. Works for me, I hear people have problems but it's all good for me. Comfortable too, no noticeable excess ear pressure and no more side head "bear trap" pressure for the ear muffs. Like them much better.The Bluetooth works good too, up to a certain distance, after about 75 feet, which is pushing it the earbuds still work, just loses contact with my phone, which I had in my car at the time. No problem, I will just keep my phone in the gear bag. Actually all I need to do if connected to the phone is just make any adjustments and shut the phone off. Earbuds still work and if I need adjustments, just get the phone back on and make changes.Works good with my phone music, either from my files or Panadora. I can control the volume level on the phone when it's even off, nice feature. The Music quality is very good, got some nice bass too, as I listen to Progressive House. You can control the Music volume too on the ear buds. Just swipe the left ear bud up or down. To pause the music, just tap once the left ear bud. Nice feature.To insert the buds, just compress the soft foam by not touching the end piece by holding the sides only. Once in, touch the left earbud for 2 seconds, once on it's say, "Walkers" then touch the right earbud for 2 seconds. If you have the phone app running or not, it will connect to your phone and say, "Connected". To shut off, hold the ends a for more than 8 seconds.To get the app to work, which you can find at the App Store, you need to make sure your phone is connected to the earbuds. With the earbuds on, check your phone for bluetooth. Should be listed and get the phone to connect. Get in that phone and find the settings. When firing my Open gun, it has a different sound than the ear muffs, as it's muted for sure and I can for sure still hear the gun go off, just not as loud and all is good.

I’m a long time clay target shooter. I’ve always had custom ear protection made because I don’t like the standard ear muff full covers. I saw these Walkers at Scheels sporting goods store but they were really marked up & high priced. I looked on Amazon and found them to be much more affordable, (it was significant) figured I try them. They were easy to setup, the Bluetooth connections were easy, and the way they charge as well as storage was very cleverer. Comfort is decent, and the wind does cause some external noise I wasn’t expecting. But I love I can play music as it helps me get outta my head and relax while on the line. I’ve used them 4 times so far. I’ve had to change out the ear bud sizers which is another nice touch. Both the foam adjusters and ear canal sizers are included to make sure you have options. If it wasn’t for the lack of wind buffering I hear I would have given it a 5 rating. Make no mistake I doubt it will improve your shooting, but All the things they promote as features really are good for the price point and the price was great on Amazon… not so much at Scheels.

Great fit and performance
