unfortunate packaging

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.

i HATE the current packaging on these batteries. The former packaging with the twist back was sooooo much easier. I have to use scissors to open these and then pry from the package. No longer able to carry extra packs in my purse.

These have a reputation for being long lasting and they are. I am marking them down for two reasons, The new packaging is nearly adult proof. I cannot get them out even with Swiss Army Knife. I ended up buying heave duty, titanium sheers to extract them. I carried them in a pill box. Several were dead when I tried to activate them. I am normally positively inclined to like child proof packages. Adult proof are not needed. I cannot recommend them until the packaging is fixed so that it is reasonable for an adult to extract new batteries,.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poor Packaging

This childproof packaging has got to go! I neefed new batteries "on the go" and I tried to open the package, and COULDN'T! Come on....we need scissors now? I don't have scissors in my purse. The women at the checkout also couldn't open them with scissors. Please, in consideration of the elderly population, give us the CHOICE. My hands don't work well anymore. Bring back the twist package which was wonderful. the new package is a BAD DECISION.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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?

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!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

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.
