Useful device of the Week: SleepPhones Headphones for Bed
It’s not commonly that something soft as well as fluffy makes it to the gadget of the week section however bear with me. I like podcasts (I even utilized to make some) as well as I listen a great deal of them in bed. I’ve utilized in-ear buds and my reliable wireless Sennheiser headphones, however neither are anything approaching comfortable to wear in bed.
The SleepPhones from AcousticSheep are headphones produced bed. They use slim stereo speakers hidden inside a fleece headband to produce a comfortable audio system to wear while nodding off.
SleepPhones are offered from around £30 for a wired model to around £70 for this wireless version featuring Bluetooth 3.0 with the A2DP profile. The wireless variety is quoted as 5-10 metres as well as I found that quite accurate. In functional terms you can leave your smartphone charging on your night stand, rather than under your pillow. While the jury is still out on the potentially harmful impacts of mobile phones on humans, there’s a great deal less RF listening this way. AcousticSheep say…
500mW is the normal cell phone transmission power. 2.5mW is the Bluetooth class 2 radio, 10m range. So it’s really 0.5% (half of 1%) of the power compared with cell phones.
This Bluetooth version is rechargeable by means of a micro-USB cord (included) as well as will fee in around 2 hours providing you 8 to 12 hours of listening time. I got two nights per charge. The bit Bluetooth as well as Battery module online in the rear of the fleece headband. I’m a ‘on-my-side’ sleeper so I never feel the system in bed. The speakers are so flat that they are totally comfortable to have between your head as well as the pillow.
The single increased button on the BlueTooth module can be felt as well as pressed with the fleece with all functions including – On, Off, pair as well as volume – managed by it.
The makers suggest you can pull the band down over your eyes so it doubles as a sleep mask as well as they have a section of their web site with some complimentary downloads to assist send you to sleep – insomniacs rejoice.
So here’s the bottom line. I’ve tried lots of different methods throughout the years of listening to music as well as podcasts in bed. SleepPhones are hands down the most comfortable method I’ve discovered to do this as well as now my SleepPhones are my new much-loved gadget!
