Thank you, Rachael! Great tips!

True story... Back in 2022, I honeymooned in Jamaica with rechargeable KS10 BTEs for a severe hearing loss. But forgot the charger.

Nothing for sale on the island, of course. But here's the catch. No online seller would ship expedited overseas! Not Costco, not Phonak, not Amazon, not even eBay.

In the words of the Ancient Mariner... Water, water everywhere (chargers online). Nor any drop to drink (in Jamaica)!

I have the Unitron chargeable hearing aids. I forgot the charger one time when I went out of town, BIG MISTAKE! so luckily I have an extra pair of hearing aids as a spare that require batteries. It is so vital you have a spare with you or make a checklist before you travel out of town!

Thank you Dr. Rachael for the helpful handy tips. I have a a moisture absorber packet in my recharger. How often should the packets be changed?

The only downside to rechargeable aids is forgetting your charger when you travel. I travel with my old set and the batteries they need.

Hi
Never thought about signing up for text messages at the airport.

Great tip - thanks!

I am recently returned from a 3 week trip to South America and a cruise. Several things: Converters don't seem to give as full a charge - my HA usually last 16-18 hour, but they died at 12 from converted power. Trying to use airlines' or tour operators earbuds are useless. Looking for an answer. However, many planes have a charging plug, use it for your HA as well as your phone, etc, especially on long flights. Closed caption is great, but not on everything. However, many museums have apps that actually work! Safe travels!

5:22pm EST 12/26 Let me add a 6TH THING: be certain that your audiologist has TRANSITIONED THE E-MAIL ADDRESS of the app associated with your hearing aids. My wife needed to REINSTALL the app over Christmas weekend but the CONFIRMATION CODE went to her audiologist’s e-mail address (OUT on holiday), NOT HERS!! No hearing aids ALL WEEKEND!

What I found is a cell phone charging battery works wonders for charging rechargeable hearing aids!

I am a general aviation pilot. Can I wear hearing aides while wearing Bose over ear noise cancelling headphones?

“Often” has a benefit for those who are hearing impaired. That would be a silent “t”. 😮
