Pro Ear Masks -- What's the difference between the models???

[Ready4Launch]

There are 6 different models, but their website does not do a good job of explaining the differences. I understand one will be the children's model, but the others? Aside from that one, are all the others the same size and fit???

From what I can see on the IST website there are 2 models with different colors and an all black model which appears to have a slightly different skirt shape. There used to be a model with 4 lens windows. The model I have several examples of, and have used for over 10 years, is the Pro Ear 2000. It looks identical to the black and blue colored masks with clear skirts.

I have a fairly average face shape. There are very few masks which I cannot fit. The basic build quality of the masks is very good. The tube connector sleeve clamping rings, which attach the equalization tubes to the mask skirt, are fragile. I have had several fail. I have wrapped them with silicone "rescue" tape to reinforce them.

The tubes where they are attached to the mask skirt has a threaded adapter, are attached with nuts. It is possible to transfer the ear cups to a non-IST mask by making a small hole in the mask skirt.
