Hearing aid batteries are mainly used for non-rechargeable hearing aids, and usually need to be replaced once a week, while rechargeable hearing aids do not require hearing aid batteries and can be used for a whole day only by charging at night. So when you buy a hearing aid, you need to consider which type is right for you. A survey shows that rechargeable hearing aids will become more and more popular.
Well-known hearing aid battery brands include Rayovac, Power one, Duracell, Energizer, Zenipower and Icelltech. Common manufacturers of non-rechargeable hearing aid batteries include Rayovac and Energizer. Of course there are other brands, you can tell us.
Rayovac hearing aid batteries are by far the most popular brand that we dispense, as thousands of our customers recognise their great value for money and consistency. The brand prides itself on their strong reputation for reliability and their cells work superbly in a variety of hearing aid types.
One of the most popular hearing aid batteries brands, Rayovac has a strong reputation for both reliability and value. The size 312 hearing aid battery is most commonly used in smaller behind the ear devices and very popular for in-the-ear hearing aids.
Size 312 hearing aid batteries including those from Rayovac, come in brown packaging with brown coloured tabs on the rear of each battery to reduce confusion between battery sizes which can appear very similar to each other. This multi-pack option presents even greater value than the single pack price by offering one of the most competitive prices on the Internet per battery.
Zinc-air button disposable batteries, also known as "button batteries", are the other common option. Because zinc-air batteries are air-activated, a factory-sealed sticker allows them to remain inactive until it is removed. Once peeled from the back of the battery, oxygen will interact with the zinc in the battery and "turn it on". To get the best performance from a zinc-air battery, wait about one minute after removing the sticker to fully activate before placing it in the hearing device. Replacing the sticker will not deactivate the battery, so once the sticker is removed, the battery will remain in an active state until the power is drained.

Here are some tips to extend hearing aid battery life.
1、Turn off the hearing aid when not in use or sleep at night, and leave the battery compartment door open overnight. This not only helps to prevent wasting battery power, but also allows the moisture accumulated during a day's use to evaporate overnight.
2、To get optimal performance from your batteries, always store them at room temperature. Heat exposure and humid environments such as a bathroom will shorten battery life. Also, batteries shouldn’t be carried loose in pockets, a purse or a backpack where they might come into contact with other metal objects like coins or keys that can short-circuit the hearing aid batteries.
Where to buy hearing aid batteries? Batteries are typically available in mass retail stores, pharmacies, grocery stores, electronics stores and through online retailers. You can also search through Google: hearing aid batteries near me.
