Hearing Aid Batteries

All hearing aids are powered by a battery. Disposable batteries are available in four different sizes depending on the style of the hearing aid. Port Credit Audiology stocks high quality mercury free hearing aid batteries to ensure your hearing aids perform optimally while you wear them. Hearing aid batteries are available for purchase in individual packs of 4 or 8 batteries or in a box that includes 40 batteries.

Here is how to differentiate between sizes, and the expected lifespan of each size:

Size 10             Yellow Tab           3-5 days 
Size 312           Brown Tab           5-7 days 
Size 13             Orange Tab         7-10 days 
Size 675           Blue Tab              9-14 days

Tips to Maximize Battery Life

• Store batteries at room temperature in their original packaging
• Only remove the sticker when you are ready to use the battery
• Open your battery doors at night when hearing aids are not being used
• Wait 1-2 minutes before putting batteries in your hearing aids after you have removed the sticker

Hearing Aid Battery Recycling and Disposal

Mercury-free batteries are considered safe to be disposed of with regular household waste. However, we encourage our patients to continue to recycle their batteries. Port Credit Audiology offers a hearing aid battery recycling program. You can always drop off your used batteries to us, and we will recycle them for you.

Please stop in to purchase more batteries, or call and arrange for us to mail them to you at home!
