Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Batteries IconYou might recognize the term “lithium-ion battery” from other electronics around your house, like your smartphone or laptop. Now this technology is available in some of the latest hearing technology.

No more fiddling with batteries constantly. Every night, just place your hearing devices in the charger, and in the morning, they’re ready to go for a full day. This battery has a high energy density, which means its small size packs a lot of power — with a short charge time, you get over 24 hours of continuous power, even if you stream audio from a mobile device.

The battery is sealed up inside your hearing aid, so it’s protected from moisture and dust. Plus, the typical lifespan of a lithium-ion battery can be around the same lifespan as your hearing instruments, so you don’t have to worry about getting the battery replaced.
