Hearing aid's batteries typically last from 3 to 20 days based on their size, the hearing aid’s type and your amount of usage.
The batteries come with a small sticky cover that protects batteries from discharging power. You must remove the sticky cover when you want to use the battery. The battery starts to discharge the moment you remove the cover.
For maximizing the battery life, you must keep it in room temperature, open hearing aid’s battery door when you don’t want to use your hearing aid and don’t refrigerate or boil it.
Rechargable Batteries
Some types of hearing aids work with rechargeable batteries. These types of hearing aids come with chargers and you can recharge your hearing aid’s batteries in case they are discharged.
