How do rechargeable hearing aids work?

Rechargeable hearing aids usually run on lithium batteries, the same battery type found in most smartphones.

In order to recharge your hearing aids, place the hearing aids in the charging station before you go to bed, and the batteries will be fully charged in the morning.

What hearing aids are rechargeable?

How long do rechargeable hearing aid batteries last?

Rechargeable hearing aid batteries will take about 3-4 hours to fully recharge and will sustain your hearing aids for around 24 hours. Rechargeable batteries do need to be replaced but only every few years (3 year average lifespan). After that period, you can purchase new hearing aids. Alternatively, if you are in need of a battery replacement only, bring them to us, and we will assist in the replacement of the batteries.

Keeping your rechargeable hearing aid batteries healthy

We recommend placing your hearing aids in their charging station whenever they're not in use.

This way, you always know where to find them. You can charge your hearing aids as often as you want, but make sure that the charging station is plugged in. When the hearing aids are sitting in an unplugged charging station, this can drain the battery and shorten the life expectancy of your hearing aids.

In case you are not going to use your hearing aids for a while (and they do not need to be charged), simply turn them off and store them in a safe place.
