Terrible Packaging!

Did anyone at your company actually TRY to open this package design before you decided to use it? I have used Rayovac batteries exclusively. When I opened the new pack of batteries today I thought the wrong ones were shipped because the package was different. I tried to compare them to the old ones and I couldn't get the package open! I had scissors on my desk to cut the packaging as instructed, but they couldn't cut through that hard plastic. I ended up using the tips of the scissors to peel back part of the backing until I could get a battery out...then had to do that again for a second one. More than 5 minutes to retrieve 2 batteries and the plastic is now bent and mangled and sharp. I appreciate the purpose is to make the packaging childproof, but they're adult proof too--I wished I had my garden shears to cut through that plastic! 58 more batteries in my pack of 60, but then I may have to switch to another brand. The batteries may not be as good, but at least I won't have to carry shears around with me to get them open. Epic Fail Rayovac!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Child proof NOT for me

When I finally got access to a battery, two came out. I need to buy more batteries in order to have a pack for my purse and I could have used one last night when both my hearing aids went out.

Horrible Packaging

The new packaging is impossible to open. You need scissors to cut it open. I always keep an extra package in my purse in case batteries go dead while I'm away from home. Do I know have to keep a pair of scissors in my purse. Also they started making the tabs shorter. Very hard to handle and replace. These are terrible. The old packaging made so much more sense.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very difficult to open package
on February 1, 2025

Contrary to what the ads say, these child proof cases are VERY difficult to open. I’m a fit 80 year old and began using Rayovac batteries on the recommendation of my audiologist. I do like the batteries. They last longer than other batteries but I’ve hurt myself several times trying to get in the packaging. I had to resort to scissors that cut steel to get them open. I get the need to child proof them but if consumers can’t access the product, what good are they. I’m sorry to leave Rayovac, but I feel I have no other choice. Buyer beware.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The batteries are great, that is if you can get to them before you die. Impossible to open even with scissors.

Package Sucks

Bought new pack of 312 hearing aid batteries. It is impossible to open. Child proof-yes, but also adult proof. Try again. I will seek out another vendor with easy to open package.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not senior friendly - not child safe

The battery packaging definitely requires scissors to open. Who carries scissors in purse or pocket strong enough to cut the plastic dispenser?
Did you consider arthritic hands when designing these terribly difficult to open hard plastic dispensers? The batteries are safe from children, but having scissors nearby is not child safe. This packaging is the worst idea ever for seniors who experience hand pain and hand muscle weakness. Please, the product is OK but the packaging apparently wasn't tested on your main users - Seniors!!!

I don't consider myself stupid but, after trying to open my package of batteries, I'm beginning to wonder. My scissors will not cut thru the plastic. What am I doing wrong?
