Audible placement in a g3?

[metaxzen 0]

I just picked up a Neptune 3 to put in my Cookie g3 and I'm finding it to be pretty uncomfortable. Any advice on placement?

I tried putting it on the top of the helmet which felt great but I couldn't hear it. In the flap near my ear it grinds into my head. Any tips?

Thanks!

For the N3, you'll probably have to cut out some of the padding to get it to fit. I never got around to that since my N3 seems to have a shorter-than-average battery life. Leaving it in during the week may help shape the padding around it some to make it more comfortable.

I had the same problem when I first started using my N3 as well. It turns out I wasn't pushing it into the cutout in the foam. Once I did that I couldn't even feel that it was there.

One trick I use for audibles is to use earplugs. Paradoxically, earplugs (at least the foam ones I use) make hearing the beeps/sounds much easier, since it conducts the sounds through the foam directly to my ear. Even when I can barely hear the wind, the audible sounds loud and clear.

Makes sense. I've hacked "noise canceling" headphones (when I've forgotten to pack my real ones) on a plane by putting in earplugs then using regular headphones on top of them when watching a movie on a flight. Works remarkably well!
