Volume limiting headphones especially for kids

The new BuddyPhones Explore line features a built-in, volume limiting circuitry that caps the sound automatically at 85 decibels, which is the level recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) for kids. Introducing flat cable design for less entanglement and lower choking risk, this latest edition of BuddyPhones comes with a detachable BuddyCable system that allows up to four audio cables to connect to one device, making it perfect for sharing. BuddyPhones Explore are exceptionally durable and bendy, and can be fully adjusted to different sizes. A built in microphone makes them ideal to use for calling grandma, grandpa and other buddies. The microphone is perfect to use with interactive learning apps and ideal for little scholars to use for study time.

How loud is too loud ? Protect their hearing !

Just as construction workers protect their ears with earplugs, onanoff created BuddyPhones to protect little music-lovers. Researchers who study hearing loss have found that a person who is exposed to noise levels above 85 decibels for a prolonged period of time is at risk for hearing loss. For this reason, workers are required to wear hearing protectors, such as earplugs or earmuffs, while working. Many devices that children use today have noise levels much higher than 85 decibels. For example, an MP3 player at maximum level is roughly on 105 decibels, that’s 100 times more intense than 85 decibels! Scientists recommend no more than 15 minutes of unprotected exposure to sounds that are 100 decibels. In addition, regular exposure to sounds at 110 decibels for more than one minute risks permanent hearing loss.

Share with your buddies

It's important for kids to learn that ‘Sharing is Caring’. This is why onanoff have installed a BuddyCable audio splitter in our BuddyPhones. The BuddyCable system allows up to four audio cables to connect to one device, making it perfect for sharing with your best buddies. It’s an excellent solution for parents with more than one child, allowing up to four kids to share one device, so mom and dad can listen to their own music or have a conversation without having to listen to 'Let it Go'.. once again. BuddyCable is built-in so it never gets lost or forgotten when you need it. One host device can connect up to four buddies at once!

Detachable cable and built-in microphone

A flat cable was designed for less entanglement and lower choking risk, the BuddyCable is also detachable so it plugs out of the headphones if pulled, maximising the safety for your child.

A built in microphone makes BuddyPhones ideal to use for calling family, friends, grandma, grandpa and other buddies. The microphone is perfect to use with interactive learning apps and excellent for little scholars to utilise for study time.

How it's made

BuddyPhones Explore are designed especially for children with sharing and safety in mind, and for little scholars to use for study time. The headphones are made from durable, robust materials. Housing is made from ABS while the headband is made of our specially calibrated polyproplene so it can be bent and pulled in every direction. The compact design for the Explore foldable line fits conveniently into small handbags and carry-ons for travelling and are easy to travel with. Design features such as flexible arms that are less likely to snap the headphones are sat on or dropped; a flat, detached cable to prevent tangling when thrown into a backpack and designed to be safe for a child when draped around their neck, make them a terrific travel companion.
