My wife switched from rechargeable to batteries. She prefers the batteries. They will tell you when they start running low and changing them is no big deal. The rechargeable ones never made it the whole day. She was waiting until 10am to use them if she wanted them to make it to 10pm. Now she changes batteries every 5 days.

I have Rexton rechargeables. I’ve gone 16-18 hrs with them on several times and they never ran out of juice. The rechargeable pad also has a battery built into it that holds a charge in case you are somewhere that you can’t plug them into an outlet. I’ve never had to-rely on the mobile battery yet.

Once you pick and pay for them- they’ll program your hearing aids based on the hearing results from each ear. If you need them adjusted at a later date- they ‘ll do this for free.

So it sounds (pardon the pun) like the battery charger itself stores a charge for a few days, and will still recharge the hearing aids even without being plugged into an outlet?
Does the charger come with a USB cable or only a 120v cable?
This is context and mine is a USB charger similar to one’s a phone comes with.
