Guardian Wired Headphones

The iPod generation will probably end up deaf faster considering the amount of time they spend with a pair of headphones, having the volume cranked up to keep themselves entertained. Hamilton Electronics hope to prevent hearing damage in kids by offering the Guardian Wired Headphones that features Sound Level Monitor (SLM) technology. An LED indicator on the outside will glow in red whenever the volume level breaches the “safe” level, enabling parents to put their authority to good use. Each pair comes with internal batteries, and the entire bundle will retail for $39.95. Of course, self control goes a long way in taking good care of your eardrums.
