Light compact. They fit my ears so perfect that I can fall asleep at night with them in and they stay! I planned to use them for gardening but theyre so nice that I wear them out & about. If you need to plug something else in to the wall outlet this MUST be plugged in to the bottom outlet. The adhesive is that good! You can’t put these into drywall (I have a new home built with 1/2” drywall) the seller recommends you contact them so they can give you adhesive. Price is on high side. So I got it out, pumped up the tires, and went for a ride. Their flexible bottom allows easy movement for kids just learning to walk, there is no clomping around in a stiff soled shoe. What I do share with Shea is a love of phone books.
