Hearing Aid Batteries
Hearing Aid Batteries, Accessories & More?
Owning a conventional hearing aid means that you will have to change the batteries regularly, but don’t worry. This is a relatively simple process. Typical hearing aid batteries can last anywhere from three to 22 days, depending on how long you use your hearing aids each day. If it is difficult for you to change the batteries by hand, you can purchase a magnetic stick to assist with the process.
The most common type of hearing aid batteries are zinc-air button disposable batteries. All manufacturers utilize the same color scale – blue, orange, yellow and brown – to specify the battery’s size. We can help you find hearing aid batteries at the best prices and let you know where to recycle your old hearing aid batteries.
Should I Get Rechargeable Hearing Aids?
For many people, rechargeable hearing aids offer a convenient, easy-to-use alternative to traditional disposable batteries. Simply place your hearing aids in their charger when you’re not wearing them, and they’ll be ready for the day ahead. Most rechargeable hearing aids provide at least a full day of use on a charge, although battery life can vary depending on the device and how it is used. Rechargeable technology can be especially helpful for people who prefer the convenience of not handling small batteries or difficulty opening the new packaging.
Have you noticed a change in the packaging for your hearing aid batteries?
Reese’s Law is a U.S. federal law enacted in August 2022 designed to help prevent young children from accessing button and coin batteries, which can cause serious injury or death if swallowed. As a result, manufacturers have changed the packaging for hearing aid batteries to make them more difficult for children to open. If you use hearing aids with disposable batteries, keep the batteries out of the reach of children and pets, and dispose of used batteries safely.
