Extending the life of your batteries
From incorrectly storing your hearing aids, to not waiting long enough for the battery to activate, there are a few things to be aware of when making sure your batteries last and work as long as possible.
Proper care and handling
The running time of your hearing aid battery depends on several factors, but there are ways you can extend it with proper care and handling to get the best performance out of your batteries.
Factors that can shorten your battery’s running time:
- Hours of use per day
- Streaming mode, which requires more battery energy
- Exposure to moisture
- Incorrectly storing the hearing aids in the wrong temperature, a warm, humid environment, or near metal objects such as keys
- The type and features of the hearing aid being used
- Improperly activating the hearing aids after removing the battery tab
Troubleshooting and safety
Despite getting a new battery, it’s possible that you could still have problems with your hearing aids not working. Luckily, there are steps you can take to troubleshoot your issues before going to a hearing care provider.
Factors that can stop your hearing aids from working:
- Not waiting enough time for the battery to be activated after removing the tab
- A dented battery surface, which causes poor contact with the battery terminal of the hearing aid
- Build-up of dirt on the battery terminal of the hearing aid
- A dead battery, which can happen when it’s not activated correctly
