Ear Bud Tangle
 

Tangled ear buds aren't 1 of my 99 problems, but according to the interweb it's a big one for a lot of folks.
So Physicist Robert Matthews from Aston University in Birmingham solved the problem, according to the Daily Mail.

Dis be dat...

I usually have to endure the 'unexpected ear bud pull-out'. I hate that one.

I have two different kinds of earplugs, with two different lengths of cord. I experience premature pullout quite frequently.

SonofV wears his earbuds much of the time. They're usually connected to the phone which lives in his pants pocket. When he greets the dog, Andy, Andy usually comes to him and jumps up for a pat on the head. Sometimes when he jumps down, he drags the loop of the cord down with his claws, and SonofV's earbuds come POPPING out of his head.

oops!!

I got wireless Bluetooth ear buds. Plantronics back beat go2.

They are awesome. Came with a case that holds several charges for the ear buds, that last about an hour.

I got Spencer a set, and he actually takes good care of them!... So he must like them too

How long to recharge them?

About 20 minutes to charge the buds with the case. About 1.5 hours to charge the case. I plugged the right ear into the case, and used the left one once when my walk was not over, and I wanted to continue listening to my book...

I guess doing music would justify a second pair so you could rotate them.

That's what she said.

Kind of pricey.... I usually don't walk for more than an hour anyway, so they've been fine in that regard

To avoid tangle while not wearing them, a bit of wire does it for me. Slide the wire down for music listening.
