Yes there was a mistake in the listing description. They are not DAB+ apparently.
Forgive my ignorance but, considering the volume most people listen to music at, wouldn't these radio headphones cause as much damage as the power tools you are trying to drown out?
I have various sets of ear defenders but they soon get too hot for me. I find the orange ribbed ear plugs very good.
They are reusable a few times unlike the foam type.

I have the Stihl ones previously mentioned there 3-4years old now used 3 or 4 days a week when running my saw mill, charge em up every couple of weeks battery lasts ages. There not super loud due to actually being hearing protection. There a bit dear but work well.

I use my moulded ear plugs, underneath my isotones bluetooth defenders.
This way can dull out all the boring stuff and still have music that can listen to with pretty much no background noise.
Especially good when got some really boring longwinded mundane noisy tasks.
The other day had to open up 50 holes through a lambda boss with a die grinder. With boxing and unboxing was nearly 10minutes each. Really helped keep spirits up.

I also have 3 pairs of Isotunes. 2 pairs of the normal over ear ones. both of them have the Micro USB plug broken so I have to balance the cable just right to get them to charge. I also have pair of the in ear earbuds which I actually find pretty good. I use them with the normal rubber inserts and not the ear defender type ones and then just wear 3M plain ear defenders over them.
When I've got my dust extractor going running the CNC router in the background and then my mobile dust vac with power tool also running all in a small single garage it works really well at stopping the noise.
Still wouldnt recommend them though and given the choice again would buy something like the proper 3M ones or the Stihl ones

It does seem to have a built in microphone with some amount of noise cancelling functionality.
I can be on the phone at one end of the workshop via Bluetooth, whilst my phone is plugged in charging at the other end of the workshop.

Yeah, I only usually get phone calls when sat on the little tractor we use for mowing the lawns - it's only ever running at full chat with a 4ft flail spinning flat out 4 feet behind me so whatever happens it's gonna struggle

Yeah, although if you're only listening to a call they do very well.Yeah, I only usually get phone calls when sat on the little tractor we use for mowing the lawns - it's only ever running at full chat with a 4ft flail spinning flat out 4 feet behind me so whatever happens it's gonna struggle
I have previously taken a call on them from my mother whilst I was making some brackets in the workshop, and without thinking just carried on using the grinder...
I could hear her just fine, but all I could hear was her vigorous objections to the loud noise that was setting off her Tinnitus.
