unfortunate packaging
on January 7, 2025
Posted by: senior
from Texas
Gender:Female
These are so hard for me as a senior to use. I understand that with scissors it may be possible to extract a battery but unfortunately life does not make it easy to carry scissors around. If I'm in my car and I need a new battery; forget it. If I've take a trip involving an airplane or cruise ship; forget it. Whoever came up with this design was surely not a senior citizen.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible packaging

I consider myself to be very physically able but I find removing a battery from its packaging to be extremely frustrating. If I needed to change a battery when I didn't have access to a good set of heavy duty shears, I would not be able to do it. The only option is to remove all the batteries from that ridiculous packaging and store them in an easily accessible container for future use. That defeats the purpose of the "childproof packaging". I will be looking for easily open packages for my future purchases.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Child Proof Packaging? Terrible for us seniors
on January 6, 2025

This new child proof packaging for the 6 pack 312 batteries is also nearly senior proof. The reason I bought Rayovac batteries for my hearing aid was the senior friendly packaging. It would help for you to go back to your old packaging. Now I guess I will have to look at some other brands for my size 312 batteries.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Longest lasting batteries, no longer easy to open.

My wife and I have been using RayOVac 312 batteries for about 10 years, because they last longer than any others. But now they are almost impossible to open with the child proof packaging. Our children are in their 50s so child proofing is not very important to us. Our next hearing aids will be rechargeable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

New packaging difficult to access
on January 2, 2025

I didn't realize that the new packaging requires scissors. I was not in my home and required a battery change. What a major inconvenience as I do not carry scissors in my purse. I will not purchase this brand any longer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Ridiculous Packaging
on December 30, 2024

Gender:Male
I have used Rayovac batteries for over40 years. That has just ended. The new Child Proof packaging is ridiculous. Couldn't open with scissors. Almost cut myself with pocket knife and the kitchen shears didn't work. Ended up in shop with tin snips. These batteries are only good at home because you would never be able to open the package without tools.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Sadistic Packaging

I had a new box of 312 10 packs. My father in law was visiting and needed some batteries. I handed him one of these new packs and he was totally unable to get it open, Now it was my turn to try. It was awful. I have good use of both hands and was using kitchen shears. I had not imagined something so poorly designed.
What if I had arthritis and poor vision? All I have to say here is that the product development people and admistrators who supervised this unholy packaging have totally failed their customer base. I for one will not purchase any more of their products.

Absolutely Terrible Packaging

Review is for Hearing Aid 312 and Child Resistant Packaging.
While I have no issue with the batteries the Child Resistant Packaging for Senior is Absolutely Terrible. It takes a lot of effort and Great Scissors to cut the area for the batteries then a screwdriver to separate the packaging for the batteries as I have no fingernails. I will never buy this kind of packaging again. If I could I would rate this packaging a Minus 10.
