Lightspeed 30-3G Headset (portable)
This popular Lightspeed ANR headset is a great value, and allows cell phone and auxiliary audio interfacing (includes interface cables). Weighing in at only 15 oz, the 30-3G provides an amazing 28-30dB of active noise cancellation and a passive NRR of 12-22dB. Two AA batteries (included) last up to 30 hours with a patented auto shut-off system that powers down the active electronics if system is left unattended. Dual volume controls along with bass and treble control settings allow the user to customize the sound output to meet their own preferences. Temperature sensitive Confor-Foam™ ear seals provide supreme comfort and breathability. Includes a five year warranty and a padded headset bag.

Date - 8-15-2009 Pilot Rating - Commercial Overall  Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes |  I tow gliders with a high performance airplane and these headsets are awesome. Light and comfortable. ConsThe only downfall is the ear seals. I used to have a 15xl which sealed great, but the seals on the 3g seem mediocre at best. I don't know if they offer a gel seal but that would most likely solve the problem as they are foam. I love the noise cancellation, but the ear seals don't always work (fit) the way they should. They fit around your ear fine, but if not on in the exact spot they need to it messes with the noise cancellation a little and creates an annoying buzz in your ear that isn't sealed right. General CommentsThis is probably the perfect headset aside from the seals, however, I am in a high performance plane so if you're flying something less than 200hp it'd probably be a 10. I've probably got 30-50 hours with these headsets towing, I have my CFI, CFII, MEI, and have approx. 500 hours. |
Date - 7-13-2009 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Really quite quiet - during my BFR and some instruction I was able to converse with my instructor in a normal volume... I never miss a communication with ATC anymore. I asked Lightspeed about an iPhone adapter cable, and they sent me one from the Zulu to see if it would work - it did; great customer service via email. ConsCan't think of anything at the moment. General CommentsI'm getting back into flying after a long hiatus. I purchased this headset because it was what my instructor was using and he was pleased with it. So am I. During some instrument training i had to remove the headset to put on a hood - I literally couldn't believe how noisy the cockpit was in comparison to having this headset over my ears. |
Date - 7-9-2009 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Very comfortable, great noise reduction and great sound. Same specs as the Zulu ConsA little bigger than the Zulu but for hundreds less I will deal with it General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 3-4-2009 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Sound is great. Noise cancellation is great Microphone is great. The earpieces are very comfortable. The headset doesn't have enough adjustment range. I've pulled the earpieces out as far as they will go, and it just barely fits. Somebody with a larger head would have problems. ( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |

Date - 4-14-2008 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | I just received them but from what I have see so far they work very well. They are not quite as compact as the Bose that I have but the price is right and they work fine. Made in China. I don't like this. General CommentsGood value |
Date - 4-14-2008 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Great noise canceling. ConsActive noise canceling component broke 3 times in 5 months. General CommentsThis is a good headset, but it doesn't survive regular use. If I have to exchange it every 3 weeks, it is a waste of time and money. |

Date - 3-31-2008 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Active Noise Reduction is very good ConsNot the lightest, or most streamline of headsets. General CommentsI originally had the 20XLC and didn't like it because of the bulkiness. This headset was much better from that standpoint and from the noise reduction standpoint. I recommend this headset even though it is not the most streamline. But, if I would have been willing to pay a premium, I could've had a lighter weight headset. |
