Answers to your questions
How do I know which battery to order for my hearing aid?
Hearing aid batteries are standardized with number and color codes to make it easy to find what you need. The easy-to-remember codes are 675 (Blue), 13 (Orange), 312 (Brown) and 10 (Yellow).
How do I know which color or number battery fits my hearing aid?
Your Audiologists — that’s us — will tell you which size and color of hearing aid batteries you need.
How long will my battery last?
Hearing aid batteries typically last about 5 to 7 days, depending on the size of the battery, your model hearing aid, level of hearing loss and the demands of the location where you use them. The more active your hearing aid is, the more battery power it will use.
Why don’t these batteries last longer?
Wrist watch batteries can last years because it requires little power to keep your watch ticking. Hearing aids, on the other hand, require more power to perform complex functions that amplify sound correctly to meet your needs in varying listening environments.
How can I avoid running out of batteries?
It’s easy. Keep at least a month’s supply of hearing aid batteries on hand, about eight to 10, and order more once you’re down to four to allow for shipping time.
Where should I store my hearing aid batteries?
The best place is right where you keep your hearing aid at night: in a bedside table drawer. That way, the batteries will be there when you put your hearing aids in first thing in the morning. It’s a good idea to keep spare batteries with you in your hearing aid carrying case, too.
But don’t store hearing aid batteries in the refrigerator. Condensation and moisture can harm them. Avoid extremes in temperature, too. Hearing aid batteries like room temperature — just like you.
