How do rechargeable hearing aids work?

Rechargeable hearing aids work by using a built-in battery that can be recharged with a charging station. The battery used is typically a lithium-ion battery (the same battery used in most smartphones) or silver-zinc battery. 

Rechargeable hearing aid batteries are an environmentally friendly alternative with a quick, simple recharge; 3-4 hours of charge time will provide a full day’s use! Most people simply place their rechargeable hearing aids in the charging station before going to bed to keep their hearing aids ready for daily use.

How long do rechargeable hearing aid batteries last?

On average, rechargeable hearing aid batteries last between 1-5 years, depending on the battery used, with lithium-ion lasting longer than silver-zinc batteries. If a lithium-ion battery is used, your rechargeable hearing aid won’t have a battery door, but it will last a considerable length of time before you’ll need to replace your hearing aid or have the battery replaced. Rechargeable hearing aids that use a silver-zinc battery will have a battery door that allows you to replace the battery when needed (approximately every 12 months). 

To keep your rechargeable hearing aid and battery in peak performance, regular maintenance and cleaning is essential. Not only will this drastically extend the life of your device, but it also ensures the sound you receive is crystal clear. Additionally, It’s recommended that rechargeable hearing aids be kept in their charging station whenever possible; this way, you’ll always know where to find them and keep your battery from draining. When it’s not possible to have them in their charging station, simply switch them off and store them in a safe place to maintain the life of your rechargeable hearing aid battery.
