  1. First Time Guide to Hearing Aid Batteries

  2. Knowing what size battery your hearing aids take is important and the first step to finding reliable batteries. There are two types of hearing aid batteries, disposable and rechargeable. Disposable batteries need to be replaced and thrown away after the battery has been drained. Rechargeable batteries can be recharged at night and have no need to be replaced. Batteries come in all shapes and sizes and their lifespan is determined by their size. Types of Batteries Disposable Batteries Disposable batteries are the most commonly used hearing aid batteries on the market. Often known as button batteries, disposable batteries are made of zinc and because of this, they are air-activated. When a factory-sealed sticker is removed, the oxygen in the air interacts with the zinc and activates the battery. Once the battery is activated, it cannot be deactivated, even if the sticker is placed back on.

  3. Sizes of Disposable Batteries Disposable hearing aid batteries come in 5 different sizes, 5, 10, 312, 13, or 675. However, size 5 is rarely used and is uncommon compared to the other sizes. The 4 common hearing aid sizes are required to be colored coded since the size differences are so small and can be extremely hard to notice. Sizes with their corresponding colors and dimensions are listed below. Size 10 batteries are yellow: 5.8 mm wide by 3.6 mm high. Size 312 batteries are brown: 7.9 mm wide by 3.6 mm high.Size 13 batteries are orange: 7.9 mm wide by 5.4 mm high.Size 675 batteries are blue: 11.6 mm wide by 5.4 mm high The sizes are color-coded making it much easier to remember which size hearing aid batteries needed for your hearing aids. Make sure to research which color you need before purchasing batteries because not all sizes will work with all hearing aids.

  4. Battery Life is Determined by Size Hearing aid batteries, on average, last anywhere from 5 days to two weeks, depending on what size they are. Some hearing aids last longer than 2 weeks, while others can last less than 5 days. Smaller-sized hearing aid batteries usually have shorter lifespans than larger ones. Sizes with their corresponding colors and lifespans are listed below. Size 10 (yellow): 3-7 days Size 312 (brown): 3-10 days Size 13 (orange): 6-14 days Size 675 (blue) : 9-20 days. If you are experiencing shorter battery life than your size suggests you should have, it could be an issue with your hearing aid. It is best to have your hearing aids checked for technical problems if they are draining battery life too quickly.

  5. Rechargeable Batteries An alternative to a disposable hearing aid battery is a rechargeable battery. Rechargeable batteries are great because they don’t require constant changes like disposable batteries. This is better for the environment and can also benefit those with disabilities who may not be able to change the microscopically small batteries every 5-14 days. Just place the batteries on a charger every night while you sleep, and never worry about replacing hearing aid batteries again. Although they are great, rechargeable batteries are not available for all hearing aids. Please ask your health care provider if rechargeable batteries could be right for you.
