Five Top Tips for Hearing Aid Batteries

To get the best performance out of your hearing aid batteries, follow these five important battery tips:

 

1. Temperature
Store batteries at room temperature in their package until needed. Do not refrigerate. Reduced temperature reduces battery life.



2. Maximize Battery Life
Turn off your hearing aids or open the battery door to save battery life.



3. Hearing Aid Usage
The length and frequency you wear your hearing aids affects battery life. Advanced hearing aid features also require more battery power.



4. Environment
Low humidity dries batteries out, reducing battery life. High humidity causes batteries to take on moisture, resulting in swelling, which reduces battery life.



5. Track Battery Life
Record the date you install the battery and the date you remove it. Once all the batteries in the package are used, you should see the average time your battery lasts.
