[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wear hearing aids and been using another brand of batteries. I was always having to change them after a few days because they were going dead.Got some Duracell 312 from "Duracell" and started using those. What a big difference,the batteries last 5 times longer then the ones I was using and the case they come in is so much better then the little wheel the others were on.After I use all of these will be buying more...Thanks Duracell for giving me the chance to try yours....
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The brand Duracell has always impressed me, and still continue to after testing these hearing aid batteries, in size 312, sent to me from Duracell for free! They have lasted a long time, I still haven't had to replace the first one i put in my hearing aid. And they have a really long shelf life, they have Duralock Power Preserve Technology, so they’ll last up to 4 years in storage, which is great because since the batteries power your device for so long you'll most likely be holding on to them for a while. They come in a convenient case with pull tabs to make removing them easy, which is nice for those suffering from arthritis, Duracell is actually recommended by the Arthritis Society for ease of use. The batteries are fairly inexpensive considering the use you'll get out of them. Overall i feel like duracell is the best brand when it comes to batteries, and they are found at almost all stores, I will definitely be purchasing these again!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't wear my hearing aids as often as I should. When I pull them out, it's frustrating to find a dead battery although I just replaced it. I figured Duracell hearing aid batteries would be the same. How wrong I was! Initially I was startled by no "low battery" alert and thought "this cannot be right". Instead of thinking a hearing aid is a hearing aid and opting for the cheapest, I will definitely consider Duracell Hearing Aids as my brand of choice. It may be cheaper in the long run.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wear two hearing aids (BTE's) that are size 312's. I work full-time as a computer instructor at a local school. My hearing aids are constantly on from the time I put them in my ears in the mornings until I take them out at night before bed. That being said, I go through hearing aid batteries a lot!
I was asked to test out the Duracell Hearing Aid Batteries - 312 and give my opinion. So here goes. I love the packaging that it came in. It came with little strips that are attached to each battery which makes things so simple when inserting a new one into the hearing aids. It's small enough to fit in my pocket for on the go. The life of the batteries is what disappointed me.
I had expected that, being a name brand, the batteries might've lasted much longer, but alas, they last just about the same length of time as the generic store brand that I normally buy. (The Duracell actually lasted a day longer than the store brand.) However, just remember, I do use my hearing aids constantly so it gets a lot of usage as compared to someone who might only wear hearing aids sporadically.
Other than that, for the ease and the value, Duracell is the way to go. For the life of batteries, it really depends on what works for you.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When looking for a hearing aid battery, namebrand doesn't usually matter to me. However, this campaign has proven to me that when it comes to batteries for my device, I can't compromise and Duracell is the way to go. I usually buy Rayovac or Energizer, as it's usually what's cheapest/my only option and they usually last anywhere from 5-7 days, with my devices being use each day for around 12-14 hours. I had just replaced my batteries with another set of Rayovac when my campaign was delivered in the mail, so I thought it would be perfect to see how long each set lasts. Given into consideration that I change both batteries when one becomes dead, I must say that this is how I did this test. Rayovac lasted me 5 days and the Duracell lasted 12. For an extra week of use, who can afford to settle or compromise. I've found my new brand and there's no turning back!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Duracell Hearing Aid Battery is a great, trusted brand and at a competitively price. I work at home so I'm not able to leave the house much. I make sure I gets the best quality products. I got to try these free. These are long lasting and easy to find in the stores. I received the product for free from Duracell and my opinion are my own
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using Duracell Hearing Aid Batteries - 312 for a long time and was very happy to be chosen to receive a pack to review from Duracell. I can't write enough positives to express how happy I am with Duracell Hearing Aid Batteries. Everything about them, from their long life in my aids, which average and extra day to two per battery compared to any others, to the extra long tabs, which make them much easier to change for someone with bigger hands, to the convenient packaging, which is much more ergonomic than other company's wheels. The color coding of the tabs makes it simple to be sure that you have the correct battery size and I like the fact that the batteries are guaranteed to last for 4 years too. Overall Duracell Hearing Aid Batteries - 312 are the best in class and I will continue to use them for as long as I use hearing aids.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, I LOVE the packaging on these batteries. The usual flimsy cardboard little "wheels" that hearing aid batteries usually come in usually end up getting crushed and emptied into the bottom of my purse. Not these! I love the sleek, flat, hard plastic packaging. It stood up to the bottom-of-the-purse test and stayed closed no problem, and I have a feeling they would fare a pocket much better than the previously mentioned cardboard wheels. I consider myself a "young" hearing aid wearer, so I do t have any problems with dexterity, but I very much appreciate the extra-long battery tabs. The packing and extra-long tabs would be enough for me to buy these batteries exclusively from now on, but they also seem to last at least 2 days longer than all the other brands I've used. Even through the July 4th fireworks, and a few VERY noisy restaurant visits with friends(my hearing aids are digital and dampen loud and prolonged ambient noises, hence use a lot of battery in noisy situations). And even thought that they lasted longer than other brands. Bravo Duracell!
