Bluetooth headphones- safety?

[boomerangben]

As I understand it, bone conduction still ultimately transmit noise to the cochlea so adding to what is coming through the ear drums. Is there not an issue of simply putting to much vibration into a very delicate part of the body that we know doesn’t like too much noise? Hearing loss in my work is a very real thing and bone conduction is very difficult to assess in terms of how much is too much. And then adding more though inter coms etc. I can help thinking that simply the amount of noise we have in our lives is too much and we are going to see long term issue with mass hearing loss.

I have all ways used wired head phones.Personally i do not like the idea of the blue tooth recievers so near my head.

They are also super easy too lose, or lose the case that you charge them

Bluetooth are considered quite safe; there is data in this thread that shows holding a mobile to your ear is more dangerous.

I am unsure if wired earphones pose any danger or more or less danger than Bluetooth… there is a reason ‘vacuum’ earpieces exist; the wire from phone connects to a translucent / opaque hose that enters the ear- I have not looked into it enough to comment.

Having watched a lot of YouTube videos by different providers it seems bone conduction is safer than ear canal etc, BUT volume must not be too loud or damage can occur just as it can via ear canal.
