The X30i is a reusable earplug with a toggle switch that flips a valve between two modes. Closed mode blocks continuous noise; Open mode lets speech and impulse sounds through while still cutting dangerous levels. Multiple tip sizes and styles let you tune the fit. It suits concertgoers, shooters, racers and workers in loud jobs who want to switch between hearing protection and hearing conversation without pulling the plug out. Rivals like loop-style and foam plugs are simpler and cheaper but lack the on-ear mode switch.

Owners rate the X30i highly, with most praise going to the mode switch and the comfort of the interchangeable tips. Complaints center on the switch being awkward to reach in the ear and on fit depending heavily on tip choice.
The X30i Earplug has a valve that opens and closes with a simple toggle switch. You can switch between hearing your surroundings while staying protected and hearing protection only. The mode is selected by operating the switch while the earplug is in the ear.
It protects against two types of noise: continuous noise in Closed mode and impulse noise in Open mode.
It comes with multiple tip sizes and styles, so you can choose the fit that feels best. It is intended for noisy settings such as air travel, concerts, auto racing, stadium events, shooting, machine shops, farming, roadbuilding and construction, and for any situation where noise levels are above the safe limit of 85 dB.
