Types of Batteries

How to Extend the Life of Your Hearing Aid Batteries

Most disposable hearing aid batteries last 3-6 days, but sometimes they drain more quickly than expected. Here are a few common reasons and what you can do to help extend their life:
Image

Let Batteries Breathe

Give batteries time to “breathe.” Once you pull the tab, let the battery sit for 2–5 minutes before inserting it. This allows the zinc to fully activate with air, giving you more power once it’s in your hearing aid.

Check Expiration

Check the expiration date. Batteries lose strength over time. Buying in bulk is convenient, but make sure they won’t expire before you use them.

Mind Power Usage

Advanced features use more power. Streaming music, taking phone calls, or running advanced hearing aid programs can drain batteries faster. These features are important for hearing clearly, just be mindful to use them when you really need them.

Watch Altitude Changes

Altitude changes affect performance. Moving between high and low elevations, such as flying or skiing, can reduce battery life. If you notice shorter life after travel, this may be the cause.

Protect from Moisture

Moisture weakens batteries. Sweat, humidity, or damp environments can cause your batteries to fizzle out early. Be sure to dry and store your hearing aids properly. For extra protection, consider using a DryLux hearing aid dryer overnight to keep both your batteries and devices in top shape.
