Many hearing aid manufacturers are now offering a rechargeable hearing aid option for those who have limited dexterity or visual problems that make it difficult to change the batteries. Some of us prefer the convenience of plugging in our hearing aids alongside our cell phone or tablet at night.
Whether it is for ease of use or convenience, the number of manufacturers offering a rechargeable product is growing. Currently, all of the options are either a behind-the-ear (BTE) or receiver-in-the-canal (RIC, pictured above). Custom in-the-ear (ITE) products will be available in the near future as well.
