If you have hearing aids with rechargeable batteries and you will not have access to electricity, there are a few options you can consider.
- Ask your audiologist/ audiometrist if the aids can use disposable batteries. Disposable batteries can power some rechargeable hearing aids. You can carry extra batteries with you in case of an emergency or for extended periods without access to electricity.
- Invest in a portable charging solution like a lithium-ion power pack: There are portable charging solutions available for hearing aids that use rechargeable batteries. These devices can be charged in advance and then used to charge your hearing aids when you are on the go.
If you are frequently in situations where you don’t have access to electricity, it’s a good idea to discuss your needs with your hearing care professional to determine the best solution for your specific circumstances.
