Rechargeable hearing aids

Are you tired of your hearing aid batteries running out unexpectedly? Modern, rechargeable hearing aids are growing in popularity - and for good reason, too. There's no need to buy battery replacements, meaning that both your wallet and the environment benefit.

How do rechargeable hearing aids work?

Rechargeable hearing aids usually run on lithium batteries (the same battery type found in most smartphones) or silver-zinc batteries.

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?

Several hearing aid brands offer rechargeable hearing aid models. When you meet with one of our experts, they can advise whether rechargeable hearing aids are a good fit for you. 

Hearing aid brands and models 

Life made simple:

  • Rechargeable batteries are replaced every 4-5 years (on average)
  • Recharging is simple
  • 3-4 hours of charge provides a full day's charge
  • Save money over time
  • All-day use
  • Environmentally friendly

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. The battery itself should last as long as the life of the hearing aid, which can be estimated at around 4-5 years. 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 you.

Some rechargeable hearing aids are fitted with silver-zinc batteries. These batteries are removable and can be replaced easily by a hearing care expert. You can expect these batteries to last about one year.

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. Leaving hearing aids sitting in an unplugged charging station 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.
