I've been using Rayovac ever since I got hearing aids six years ago, so I can't compare them to other brands. I was always happy with them until you came up with the "child proof" feature. I have a terrible time getting them out of the packaging. Scissors are a poor solution and sometimes the battery flies out of the packaging when I'm trying to get it out. Do you have a product that isn't "senior-proof?"
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for submitting your review.Stella! Many thanks for you feedback on the new child-resistant packaging. We have changed the packaging format to be in compliance with Reese’s Law, which states that all button, coin and hearing aid batteries – and devices powered by those batteries – must be contained in child-resistant packaging that features specific warning copy.
The products have been subject to rigorous independent tests, confirming that the new packaging is 100% child resistant*, and zero batteries were accessed by children during CRP testing.* The new plastic dial includes additional staking points for extra security. By that nature it does mean that there will be a difference for users in how to access batteries in the pack, compared to previous packaging. The independent testing also showed that 99% of seniors were able to open the pack for the first time in under one minute*. On the second attempt, this time halved* so we found that consumers become faster with more familiarity and with instruction. We want to support everyone through the transition to child-resistant packaging and have prepared the following video that shows you how to open the pack.

I’ve been using Rayovac 312 for about 5 years. They last me about 5 days. However, the last box I bought has childproof packaging. I sliced my finger trying to pry the package open. It’s almost impossible for me to cut the package with scissors. Please offer a choice of childproof packages for those who have concerns and an option for the elderly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great battery. Poor case design.
on December 14, 2025

I have used this brand of hearing aid battery for 13 years. I think the batteries provide great performance. The battery packaging has always been user friendly. Today I struggled to cut open the child resistant package. It took me about 20 minutes to cut the plastic in a way that released the battery and also did not result in cutting my fingers on sharp edges of plastic. I travel quite a bit and would not be able to access the batteries if I did not have a scissors with me. If the company has to make a statement that 99% of users can get the package open in a minute, that says there is concern about the package design and ease of opening. I understand not wanting children to get a hold of these batteries. But I don’t want to struggle to access this product. Secondarily, the package only holds 6 batteries, not 8 that previous packages held. This is not a win for me as a user. I would not recommend this product with the package in its current design state. In fact, I may be looking at other options that have more user friendly packaging
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Battery is okay but packaging is awful

I gave these batteries a 1 because of the packaging. I have to get someone to open it for me. This was the worst idea of packaging anyone ever had. The label should say Senior Resistant instead of Child Resistant.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love the batteries. Hate the packaging.
on May 16, 2026
Posted by: disappointed in oregon
from Oregon
I have used Rayovac 312 hearing aid batteries for a decade or more and loved them nd depended on them. But the new child-resistant packaging is a deal breaker. It seems I often have to change batteries when I'm away from the house and without scissors. What am I supposed to do!?! Change the batteries before they need to be, just so I can do it at home?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
