As a senior with four years experience with hearing aids using 312 batteries, I found the "old" packaging convenient. Now the requirement to use scissors is a non-starter for many venues where battery replacement might occur. Symphony, theater, airplane in flight (TSA will not allow scissors) are impossible to now deal with with the current packaging. We are not stupid however, and will remove the batteries from the new packaging and recycle the old packaging to enable us to continue our lives unencumbered by progress while we endanger the kids in our lives! The packaging engineers can do a much better job than the current edition of 312 batteries.
The new child resistant packaging is terrible , absolutely terrible for elderly people. And I am guessing that it is elderly folks who use your 312 hearing air batteries the most!! Please, please return to old 312 battery packaging..
The Rayovac size 312 hearing aids batteries, 6 per card, are a packaging nightmare! I agree with all of the other negative comments concerning packaging and will not repeat them here but consider them included here. I have tried all kinds of scissors with minimal success. Can you recommend a specific brand/style of scissors that will work? Are you planning to do anything to replace this packaging with one that is kinder and more user friendly? Like perhaps the previous PACKAGING?
I've purchased this battery a long time. battery is good new child-proof package is very poor. Hard to open especially away from home with no scissors. Go back to the drawing board!
These are used for hearing aids and most people wearing hearing aids are elderly. This child proof battery pack is insane and almost impossible for elderly with arthritis to open. They don't last near as long as batteries I've used in the past. A total waste of money
The website says 99% of seniors can access the batteries in one minute. This is true if you have a torch. Normal scissors break on the armor grade plastic. Fire the person who thought this was a good idea. The batteries are good, but they are poorly packaged.
