Rechargeable Hearing Aids
Hearing aid technology like most technology goes through stages of evolution. The most recent technological advance has been to the category of rechargeable hearing aids. Although rechargeable hearing aids have been around for quite some time, they were unable to hold a charge for an extended period of time, often just a few hours. Technologically has advanced to the point where a rechargeable hearing aid can now hold a charge for days.
Reasons to Consider Rechargeable Hearing Aids
Ease of Use
Rechargeable hearing aids are Particularly useful if you have decreased dexterity or health issues that make handling small objects difficult. Place the hearing aid in the charger at night and in the morning it will be fully charged and ready for use.
Go Green
Rechargeable batteries are better for the environment. You may only need to replace the batteries once over a 3 – 4 year time span.
Peace of Mind
Once they’ve charged overnight your hearing aids will be ready to work all day long. Many rechargeables also allow you to top off with a “quick charge” of an hour or less during the day that adds several hours of wearing time even if you’re streaming audio regularly.
No Additional Costs
The cost to replace your rechargeable batteries is less than the cost to replace regular hearing aid batteries over the same period of time.
Modern Hearing Aids
A hearing aid is a small electronic device that you wear in or behind your ear. It makes some sounds louder so that a person with hearing loss can listen, communicate, and participate more fully in daily activities.
There are three basic parts to a hearing aid: a microphone, amplifier, and speaker. The basics haven’t changed for decades. What has change significantly is how a hearing aid manipulates the sound as it enters the hearing aid and eventually sends the signal into your ear canal. Theses advances include:
- Automatic volume adjustments
- Automatic adaptation to background noise
- Built in FM, Infrared and Bluetooth technology
- Water resistant technology
- Hearing aids look better than ever before coming in a variety of shapes, colors and styles
