Smaller packaging, harder to get into

I wear hearing aids and have been buying the 16 pack 312 batteries, but now our store has a shipment of the new packaged 12 packs. The plastic is so tough, I had to have my retired mechanic husband open them. Please reconsider the material you are putting the batteries into. Don't get me wrong-I love the batteries, but cannot open the package!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Batteries are great, the new child proof is terrible! The plastic is double thick, not easy to cut at all! After you cut it out, you have to try to pry the two cut halves apart. Watch out for the sharp corners. The old package was simple and quick, the problem with those batteries was the very short pull off tabs. I HATE THIS NEW PACKAGE!!

I hate the packaging on these batteries and will never buy them again. Even with scissors they are almost impossible to extricate from the packaging.

Impossible packaging!

I've been using these provided by the VA for years but from now on I'll buy my own as I cannot get this new package open! I can't carry a pair of scissors with me all the time. I guess until I manage to use up the 180 batteries I just received I'll get help and open all of them and carry them in a baggie. That will totally defeat the "child proof" idea.

Adult proof too!

To require scissors to access a battery is ridiculous. Even using scissors is quite difficult unless there is an opening technique to use of which I'm not aware.

Without assistance I couldn't open batteries

I noted that all 5 star rating reviews were more than a year old. There should be nothing but 1 star ratings since the 2024 new packaging makes opening for accessing the batteries just about impossible. Your description says the the 312 batteries are 100% child resistant - the fact is that regardless of age, at no age is opening reasonably possible.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible "Child Proof Packaging" for older people.

I have always used Size 310 Rayovac batteries. Your decision to change to the Child Proof Packaging has had a serious negative impact on my use of Rayovac hearing aid batteries. The new package is terrible. It is difficult to open and now requires a pair of scissors to access each individual package port. As I age and my strength and dexterity decline your new package has made my life more difficult not easier. Additionally many Hearing aid users DO NOT have young children in our lifes that we need to worry about them eating your batteries. Please reconsider this "wonderful" packaging decision you have made. They are terrible

good battery lousy packaging

The child resistant packaging is also senior resistant. opening requires a great deal of hand strength to work the scissors and the cuts produce plastic with sharp edges. There has to be a better way to package this
