Can't go wrong with the Sony mx-1000 range. Over ears are brilliant and long term comfortable, 10 minute charge gives you 5 hours continuous use. If your work environment requires AS over ear protection, then look at the ear bud version of the same, and wear them under your peltors.
Are they primarily for listening to music while also blocking out noise? I'm looking into them and thanks for the suggestion but just to be clear, I only really need the noise cancelling aspect / hearing protection aspect. Unless these have some additional benefit over a non-chargable set of earmuffs I'm not seeing?
[edit] oh, and the noise will be intermittent, if that helps. Like, one blast of noise every 15-30 seconds or so. Like hummm BZZT hummm BZZT, etc.
I mean yeah. I've also used just the noise cancellation for sleep in different environments, whilst whippersnipping etc. I'm referring to the over ears version here. I think as long as there's a Bluetooth connection active the noise cancellation will stay working until the battery dies. If the Bluetooth connection drops, the headphones turn themselves off by default after a while. There's a sony app that lets you change that though.
