Comparing the two is honestly a laundry list beyond how they look. Obviously one is wired and one is wireless, but they function in very similar ways. The AXIL however, does clip sounds over 85dB, where the E-Max Shadows do not. Beyond that, the AXIL Ghost Strike Extreme also provides a higher NRR than the Shadows, as well as a longer operating time on a single charge. The Shadows do come in with the advantage of the case serving as a charger for the earplugs.

Is there any kind of safety cord to keep them from falling out upon rifle recoil?

There is not a safety cord, but it does come with multiple ear tips to achieve a more custom fit for each user.

Do these earplugs require a battery?

A
Answered by Brandon, member, from UT, United States, on January 11, 2021

These have an internal battery with an estimated battery life of 5 hours per charge. It includes a case that can recharge the earplugs 4-5 times, so you can get approximately +20 hours of use from the earplugs and case.
