Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

I am considering buying a set for my outdoor experiences.   I heard they have a 1/8" stereo or similiar input connector, but the literature doesn't show it.  I would really like a set of hearing protection that has an input connector for other devices, I pod, Walkman as analog tuning can be tricky.  Do the WorkTunes have an input connector or do I need something else? 

I got to use the Racetunes for the first time today!!     They are the bomb.  I started the tractor and put these things on, then egaged the blades.  I'm not exactly sure what I looked like I was fitted for, but it sounded all good to me.  All I heard was a pleasant OPE hum in the background with Big & Rich playing.  They have a nice comfortable fit, but with glasses they don't seal perfectly.  When I turn my head I get a little outside noise.  I'd highly recommend a pair to anyone...........Priceless.   

Well by now you have used your racetunes much more. Can you provide a short update review of them? How are they holding up? How long do those batteries last?

Ah, yes Termy.  The battery life seems to be grand   However the radio stations I listen don't come in very clear, so I see it best to use my cellphone/Mp3 player to listen to my tunes.  Otherwise they are holding up great, I'd recommend them.  The full review on them is in the OPE review section.   

I have been remiss in not doing reviews.....I guess I really should on the OPE stuff I own.
as to the racetunes, I concur with AJace....the batteries seem to last forever........my boys have left them on for DAYS.......I go put them on and they are still running....we use them a lot and hardly ever change batteries.....
They take AA, which I buy at BJ's at around $11.00 for a 40 pack, so they are cheap to keep running.
I'm very happy with my racetunes and they are better then the worktunes......way better controls, etc.

My ipod works grat in them also.
