Key features for tactical and range use

Bluetooth connectivity and comms

CALDWELL E-Max’s Bluetooth runs for about five hours on a charge, supporting playlists and phone calls during downtime at the range. Its compatibility with EMAX Comms and Links makes it straightforward to integrate with external comm systems for team training or range instructors.

Intuitive controls and situational awareness

Physical push-button controls provide tactile operation while wearing gloves, allowing you to change ambient noise settings, adjust volume, and answer calls without removing the protector. Multiple earplug tips allow a secure fit that maintains consistent passive attenuation between shots.

Rechargeable case with LED indicators

The storage case doubles as a charger and includes an LED battery level indicator for each ear. That feature removes uncertainty about remaining runtime and simplifies gear prep before a training session or match.
