Bought them last time. I like them. They’re comfortable; that’s something I struggle with for in ear headphones. They do help with noise canceling; I could barely hear the obnoxious couple at the coffee shop without having to blast my music. I’ve only used the solar charging to “top off” so I’m not really sure how fast it charges, but it makes these a great on the go pair of headphones.
Processing took a while so it took some time to actually ship.
All in all I’m glad I bought them. I use them almost daily.
Also damn right solar charging is a useless gimmick. Two things will happen, they’ll turn into a puddle of goo and burst into flames under the Floridian sun, or they’ll get stolen because it’s Florida and that’s what people do in Florida.
@user20368848 Having escaped from Florida in 1981, I am relieved to hear that it remains an excellent place to be from. In my continued opinion, FAR from.
I have these from the last time they were offered. I use them for walking my dog since I don’t want my nice headphones to get gross from the sweat. These earbuds work great for the price. Sound good too. They pair easily every day via Bluetooth. No regrets and they are even cheaper this time around so I’d definitely get them now.
The only odd thing is I was on the beach one time and all of a sudden someone else’s music was playing in them. It only happened once and I have no idea how.

I have always heard that light waves make noise.
@hchavers But not as much as tidal waves.
Another sock drawe product with overpriced shipping
@SputnikHQ
Free shipping or non-member $5 is too much for you? Lol what?!
Has anyone brought these the other times they sold them ? Are the headphones any good?

@dillbot so you don’t HAVE to charge them via solar? You do have the option to plug the case in to a charger?
@dillbot @spavlis There’s no mention of USB charging in the specs, so I would guess no.
@dillbot @spavlis A usb-c charging cable is included, and the manual linked above mentions that as an alternative to solar charging.
@dillbot @spavlis The solar charging didn’t work on the one I bought last time, I charge it exclusively by the USB-C, which yes you can do.
The last time was a couple of weeks ago and I bought them at $29.99. Looks like I should have waited.
I only wear wired dirty buds.

@user20368848 and, because it’s Florida…something something…alligators.

I can’t wear that shape of earbud; I have small ear holes.
