I bought one of the Dave Clark conversion kits several years ago with the
battery powered option.  The Dave Clark (sometimes called Dave "Clamp")
headsets are extremely uncomfortable for me after about 2 - 3 hours of
flight time in my Beech Sierra.  I get headaches from them.  The ANR kit was
pretty good but I kept forgetting to turn off the battery and went through a
lot of batteries.  Additionally the thing quit working after about 2 years
and I've simply done without since then.

For my money, I'd rather have a high quality comfortable headset with the
ANR built in and powered by the aircraft electrical system.
