The new generation of rechargeable hearing aids means the days of having to remember to change the battery before we go out to that important meeting or dinner or having the hearing aid stop half way through the wedding are a thing of the past.

The new rechargeable systems have up to two days’ use in a single charge, a “battery pack” that gives you two extra charges if you happen to be away from home (and the charger) and the battery life is 3-5 years minimum.

Because of our independence at Audiology Associates we have access to all the current manufacturers of Liion technology and help you get the system that suits your needs as well as your budget
