New MyPhones Volume-limiting Headphones For Kids

MyPhones headphones

Griffin Technology created a product that should have been made a long time ago. The new MyPhones volume limiting headphones for kids are over-the-ear headphones that are safe, comfortable and customizable for children aged 3 to 12. But most importantly, these headphones have an 85-decibel volume-limiting circuit to help prevent damage to the ears.

Why 85 dB? This is the level that pediatric audiology and safety agencies say is ideal for kids. Combined with a break in listening every hour or two, kids' ears are well protected.

MyPhones headphones sit over the ear and have soft rubber ear cushions and an adjustable band. They also have a durable heavy-duty cable, and the 1/8" headphone plug connects to the headphone jacks on iPods, iPhone, DVD players, gaming consoles, and computers.Read more

Griffin Delivers a Little More Power

Griffin PowerJolt Reserve

When you charge your iPhone or iPod, you expect to make it through a full day of use without charging again. How many times have you been talking only to realize you are out of power and you have to start thinking about charging in the middle of a call? It is never a convenient time to run out of juice. Well, Griffin Technology knows you need a little stored up energy to get you to the charging station. The PowerBlock Reserve and the PowerJolt Reserve each hold and charge a Reserve Battery Pack for your iPhone and iPod.

Now, you can unplug your gear, and take a little more power with you in the Reserve Battery Pack from Griffin. The PowerBlock Reserve has an MSRP of $39.99 as does the PowerJolt Reserve. The PowerDuo Reserve is $59.99. The PowerDuo Reserve is both PowerBlock and PowerJolt in one price.

I like the light meter on the Reserve Battery Pack that tells you how much power remains – it is an Apple battery signature, and Griffin compliments Apple with this feature.
