Types of Hearing Aid Batteries
Most hearing aids use small, disposable batteries that come in four main sizes. Each size is marked with a color to make it easier to choose:
- Size 10 (Yellow) – Very small, used for tiny hearing aids like CIC (completely-in-canal).
- Size 312 (Brown) – Common size, often used in ITC (in-the-canal) and RIC (receiver-in-canal) hearing aids.
- Size 13 (Orange) – Larger batteries, usually for behind-the-ear hearing aids.
- Size 675 (Blue) – The largest size, used in high-power hearing aids for severe hearing loss.
Our team can help you figure out which size works with your hearing aids.
How Long Do Hearing Aid Batteries Last?
Battery life depends on the size of the battery, your type of hearing aid, and how often you use it. On average:
- Size 10: about 3-5 days
- Size 312: about 5-7 days
- Size 13: about 7-10 days
- Size 675: about 10-14 days
If you stream music or phone calls through your hearing aids, the battery may run out more quickly.
Tips for Making Batteries Last Longer
- Store in a cool, dry place – Avoid heat and moisture.
- Keep the tab on until use – Pulling the tab activates the battery.
- Open the battery door at night – This saves power and lets air dry out the aid.
- Carry extras – Always keep spare batteries with you in case one runs out.
Rechargeable Hearing Aids
Many new hearing aids now come with rechargeable batteries. Instead of replacing batteries every few days, you simply place your hearing aids in a charging case overnight. Rechargeable options are more eco-friendly and convenient, but they may not be the right choice for everyone. Our audiologists and hearing instrument specialists in Michigan, Minnesota, and Florida will help you decide if rechargeable hearing aids are a good fit for your lifestyle.
Hearing Aid Battery FAQs
How do I know which battery my hearing aid uses?
The battery size is listed in your hearing aid manual, or our specialists can help you find the right one.
What should I do with used batteries?
Don’t throw them in the trash. Collect them in a safe container and recycle them at a local center or through your hearing clinic.
Can cold weather affect batteries?
Yes. Cold temperatures can make batteries drain faster. Keep spares at room temperature for best results.
Are rechargeable hearing aids better?
Rechargeable hearing aids are convenient and cost less over time, but disposable batteries may still be a better option for some people. Your provider will help you decide what works best for you.
