The present invention is a battery-powered, Bluetooth-enabled wireless earpiece with a microphone mounted for use inside the wearer's ear canal. Its intended purpose is to transmit sounds such as snoring, generated in the user's upper airway, to a separate device for recording and/or sound analysis. In particular, the present invention is composed of a small housing that fits to all or part of the user's external ear, with a microphone that fits inside the external ear canal. An earplug sandwiched between the microphone and the housing insulates the microphone from noises generated in the outside environment. The housing of the present invention contains on the inside a rechargeable battery and Bluetooth chip, as well as necessary wiring. On its surface, the housing has an ear support piece, an on/off switch, an indicator LED, and an adaptor jack for connection to a battery charger or power cord.
