How long should you wear earbuds a day?

“As a rule of thumb, you should only use TWS bluetooth earbuds at levels up to 60% of maximum volume for a total of 60 minutes a day,” says somebody.And it depends on the volume you are listening , how long you will use the headphones and also the type of music.

In my opinion, bluetooth earbuds or wireless headphones are a good thing, it can give people peace, better enjoy the music, and even protect our headphones from high decibels .In addition, there are some headphones can be good for your auditory health, especially over-ear headphones or noise-cancelling headphones, because they can drown out annoying surrounding noises to keep your ears in a comfortable environment and make it easy to hear what you want to hear at much lower volumes to keep your ears healthy.For example, when you are on a plane, you will feel your ears are particularly uncomfortable, the noise reduction headphones are very helpful at this time, it can make you enjoy the music while protecting your hearing.

As our society and culture become more connected through technology, people use headphones or TWS bluetooth earbuds has increased ,becoming more and more popular, but on the other hand ,hearing loss used to only be a problem as aging set in, but now it’s much more common in younger generations because both adults and teens – listen for too long or too loud, or some combination of the two.

headphone safety

To keep your headphones healthy , please keep your time with headphones on limited to one hour per day and never raise the volume on your listening device over 60% of the maximum.If you listen at really high volume continuously, i am afraid that you are moving towards hearing loss which initially would be high frequency.You might not be able to notice, but later it could become so severe that you might need hearing aids and you might suffer from ringing in the ears as well.

That begs the question: How long is too long? How loud is too loud? How do i know if my ears have problem ?

how long to use headphones

In view of these questions,we would like to provide a few safety guidelines:

1) The louder volume you are listening, the less time you should listen. Please do not make yourself exposure to a high level of sound for a long period of time,otherwise, that can cause damage to your ears. Some studies have shown that , exposure to very loud sounds for just 15 minutes can lead to hearing loss.Therefore, please limit the time and volume your use the headphones to keep your ears healthy.

2) Please do not forget to take breaks after listening sessions and remove the headphones from your ears if you don't use them.After a break, your ears are relaxed,then you can continue to use your headphones.

3) When we use headphones to listen to music, we always immerse ourselves in the world of music and forget how long we are listening to it.If so, we can also set up an alarm clock, and there are app that can show you when you should to rest .The downside of this method is that some people get irritated when an app tries to control their lives or they find them annoying.

4) People of different personalities like to listen to different musical styles .Differences in musical styles may also risk damage to your ears.We can choose different environments to listen to different music styles, If the music style is more exciting, we can shorten the time of listening to music

5) During long listening to music with headphones, you can't know if your ears are at risk, so be sure to check your ears regularly, preferably for each physical examination.

6) If you like to wear headphones to listen to music, be sure to control your time, the volume should not be too high, you must pay attention to rest during the period, your ears can not wear headphones for a long time.Try to choose headphones with good sound quality to listen to music. Good quality headphones can allow for better enjoyment of music while also protecting your hearing

7) The CDC has detailed information on various daily experiences and their associated volume or decibel (db) levels.One important thing to note when considering using headphones is that the maximum volume of personal listening devices can be adjusted to around 105 to 110 decibels.For reference, exposure to sound levels above 85 decibels (equivalent to a lawn mower or leaf blower) for more than 2 hours may cause ear damage, while exposure to 105 to 110 decibels may cause damage within 5 minutes.Sound of less than 70db is unlikely to cause any significant damage to the ear.It is important to know this because the maximum volume of personal hearing devices exceeds the threshold for injury occurrence (in children and adults)!

8) I would like to suggest that if you use very high volume to listen to music, you can not use the TWS earbuds more than 10 minutes, otherwise it will be very harmful to your ears,also your earbuds.
