Look at the headset's estimated talk time to know if it will work for the time required. A Bluetooth stereo headset will last long enough because it has a larger battery and is designed for continuous use. Unfortunately, unless you get one with a chord between the ear-cups, it will most likely block too much of your soundscape.
