The new EP5 Sonic Defenders Max from SureFire offer “full-block” hearing protection. They utilize a soft, adjustable, hypoallergenic triple-flanged stem to seal the ear canal and block out potentially harmful sounds, providing a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 26dB. I’ve been using SureFire EP3 Sonic Defenders for years and I’m glad to see this new upgrade. They are very low profile and quite comfortable because of the EarLock design that conforms to the ear’s natural shape to “lock” the earplug in place. SureFire claims you can wear them sleeping but I haven’t had to do that yet.
Sonic Defenders aren’t disposable but their service life is only intended to be 3 – 6+ months based on usage and storage. They come with a small storage case and a polymer lanyard.
Available in Small, Medium, and Large in Black, Orange or Clear.
