Staff Answer
If the machine you are operating is too loud for the music to be heard on these hearing protectors then you are probably not going to be able to hear it no matter what hearing protector radio you use. The idea is to protect your hearing and if the volume of the head gear is too loud then the music could damage your hearing. Northern does not have anything that would play the music louder than these do.

answer 2
Yes they do. While the headset speakers are not top-shelf, they at least let you listen to your personal music. What I have done for better sound is to put the Ipod in my shirt pocket and run the ear buds as you normally would. They seal tight enough so that you still get the benefit of full hearing protection.

They work like standard headphones when an external source is plugged in. You do NOT need to turn the power on. The batteries are only to operate the AM/FM radio.

answer 4
I pressurewash for a living so I use mine 5-7 hours a day avg. about 3 days a week during summer, in 2011, I used 4 sets of batteries from March to Nov. however 1 set was old (From gps). Also used on 2, 8 hour bush hogging jobs, made job go by much quicker (and was able to hear my wife when I got home). Absolutely would recommend these to anyone.
Use good batteries like Energizer or Duricell for better life.

NO, the battery compartment only has a snap shut opening on it like kids battery powered toys and there is NO seal,so water would for sure penetrate the battery holder. As for the tuner I don't think it is waterproof either.I would not wear mine in the rain.
