- PLEASE NOTE THE BATTERIES ARE INSTALLED WRONGLY IN THIS VIDEO.
PUT THE FIRST BATTERY WITH THE NEGATIVE INTO THE HOLE INTO THE HOLE AND THE SECOND WITH POSITIVE TOWARDS THE HOLE.
The MSA Sordin Supreme Pro X are excellent earmuffs.
However the design on changing the AA batteries is not easy banging it until the second battery falls out. However with a 0.9mm allen key it is simple and not damaging your earmuffs. I have used this technique for 6 years of use.
You just saved me so much time with that technique thank you 😂
What an absolutely disgraceful piece of engineering. For £220 I expected much much better and not carry around a special tool to change batteries. I will go back to the older cheaper model with the batteries inside the pull off ear muff. Thank you for the video, you saved me a lot of time and made my mind up for me.
I agree its a bad design from a battery change point of view but i would consider the fit, cancellation and robustness of the unit as well.
If you use lithium batteries they will last for days.
600 hour battery life.....deal with it
@@chechatonga9502 Yep they last for ages with energizer lithium batteries.
I agree, what an awful design!
You can just invert the cup and knock it against your hand, the battery comes right out.
The way I do it is I take a screwdriver covered in electrical tape and reach in and push down on the back of the battery. It makes it pop up in the front where you can then pry it the rest of the way out with a pen or a plastic stick or something.
Yes that is a good way too
A massive thank you for this great piece of dark magic - much appreciated.
You just saved me.. 🙏
Thank you for take your time for make this video. Apreciate it
I find it comes out easy if I just tap the case with my knuckles. I easily remove the 2nd battery in about 5 seconds.

Yep, literally cup the plastic side in your palm and gently smacked the ear muff side once and it came out.
Hands down the best way to to do it. What a great video. Thanks! Saved my Sordins from a beating haha
I already had mine packed up for return when I came across this video. I had already dented the first battery thinking that a small amout of pressure would slip the battery where it belonged. When I used a screwdriver to push the first battery properly into its slot, I noticed that pressure toward the mouth of the compartment did not work. I had to push the battey in more toward the bottom and the second battery slipped right in. I agree, crappy engineering in this one aspect, but the balance of the build and performance is superb.
Yes its fiddley alright. The great thing about youtube is you will generally find somebody else has experienced this problem and hopefully provided an answer.
I love these ear muffs until the time comes to change the batteries. Then I will absolutely hate them with passion. This video eased up the pain a bit. I hope I will remember it next time around.
Agreed, changed the batteries last night. The Energizer lithium AAA hold the charge a long time with these muffs so its a long time between changes.
The MSA Sordin Supreme Pro X are excellent earmuffs.
However the design on changing the AA batteries is not easy banging it until the second battery falls out. AAA not AA
thx, I used a small metal hook for hanging objects on the wall, fits perfectly in the space by the positive pole
I didn’t see where that tool went. I can’t open mine. Please advise
Why don’t you remake this video and put the batteries in correctly?
Much obliged brother. Thanks so much.
Thank you for this video.
Thanks a lot. Just got my brand new pro-x. And minutes later looked out for help on RUclips. Great product. But terrible battery change design!!
Yes.
Someone else on RUclips also recommends throwing out the included batteries and replacing with Duracells which, he claims, are a bit thinner and so pop out easier.
@@HotVoodooWitch yes this one

Great tip thanks
Omfg amazing haha, thanks
Thanks
I just use tip of the pen which is easier and cheaper option. Since we should all have pen at home or work.
you put them in backwards!
There is an error
Here's another video showing how to do it with no tools. If one prefers tools, that's great

I don't like hitting electronic equipment with such a force just to dislodge a battery
@@mchughcb I totally understand that. But I don't think one's personal preference makes a design bad. For my tastes, the Sordins are built so solidly, I'd rather smack it once than stick something in there. With my clumsiness I'm sure I'd eventually break something 🙂
What type of battery is it?
AAA
Thank you
Does the battery have to be AAA alkaline specific or will any AAA be fine?
@@johncreasy1456 any quality AAA will do
Why did they do this ?
200€ and that shit comes up, WTF
I can't get the first battery to drop in even with a screwdriver. Ugh. What a disappointment after spending 300 bucks. I can't even use them.
Push the first battery sideways toward the bottom of the battery
@@jspool yeah, I have to push it with something like a screwdriver. The instructions say to just jiggle the headset and the battery will fall in place. I'm not looking forward to pulling that battery back out, but hopefully it pops out just as easy.
The most stupid battery compartment in the history of engineering.
I'm not sure it's the stupidest but it's certainly in the top 10.
Thanks for the video. Stupid design though
Agree.
Vary bad design for the battery
I spend over $300 on headset and can't even put the second battery in. I am doing just like in the diagram and not I have a dent in the lower battery from trying to push the top battery in.... 🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@slipknnnot I'm guessing by now you figured out how to get the second battery in. What I found horrifying was getting the first battery out. 😱
@@HotVoodooWitch turn the cup upside down and smack it a time or two with your palm. You'll figure it out, and it'll be easy from that point. These Sordins are tough and can handle a little spank or two 😁
@@thecat9054 I appreciate your response and have smacked repeatedly to no avail. Ah, well. At least they do a stellar job at eliminating noise, and they’re very comfortable. And I’m extremely appreciative that they’re not made in China.
Just finished packing my set up to return to Amazon. I’m Swedish heritage and I’m cringing at this design. Instructions weren’t even clear as to the battery orientation. Sh#$@y batteries, too. $287 - how about charge an extra 50 cents for some Duracells and make it $287.50? Oh wait, I only budgeted $287.49. Deal breaker.
I use the ever ready lithium ultimate and they are good for 60+ hours.
The first battery is SUCH a PITA. Some Swedish engineering; my Swedish-made stand mixer is a gazillion times better engineered.
First battery is easy to put in and might take a tap or two to get out
