Last night I put them in while I was still watching Will & Grace (we watch that often right when we go to bed), the TV volume wasn't loud, but it wasn't low either, I couldn't hear a word they said, much less my H's snoring.
they COMPLETELY block out the noise my H makes. Here is where BB would say, no, they don't completely.....
Same or similar (yellow or white foam) ear plugs here GEL. BB claims she hears as well with them as without??????? My opinion is she is looking for perfect quietness.
Earplugs are rated in dB reduction if I remember correctly? I think I will look at a few brands to see which ones have the greatest dB reduction.
I told my CPAP service person BB also feels the air coming out the exhale port of my mask. The service person said she has heard that before but doesn’t have a fix. I took a small piece of foam from the air intake port and used it to wrap around the exhale port. That helped because the exhale air is diffused and does not leave the mask at one point and or in one direction.
BB doesn't like head phones or ear buds for more than an hour. I suppose she qualifies as one of those sensitive people Mrs. Cac4 was describing.
