Rachael and batteries

[Guest guest]

Dixie or anyone that can answer: I have a problem how do I tell when the

batteries go down for sure. I usual change my batteries before they go down,

about every 3-4 days but is there a way to tell when the batteries are low or

when they go down. My CI seems to start a whinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn or a squirt

when the batteries are low, does anyone else's do that, or am I just imagining

it?

Hi ,

About two weeks ago, I was caught without my batteries while out

shopping one day. I have a habit of taking my regular handbag and a

dressy handbag along to an occasion and swapping out a few contents

(namely batteries) before the event from one handbag to another. Just

in forgetfulness, I left my dressy handbag in my sister in law's car

and forgot all about my little battery case being in that handbag. Once

I found I was without batteries that day, I stopped at the nearest drug

store and picked up a pack of 675 hearing aid batteries. All was well

in a matter of minutes. Now I keep a pack of batteries in my car and

my husbands as well. I also keep batteries at my desk and on my sofa

table and in the kitchen. It's just so handy to have them right there

and not have to locate what I need while in another part of the house.

My batteries last at least 5 days on my Ace 900 map.

Good luck with your upcoming surgery!

You should hear 4 beeps about a minute or two before it looses power and

shuts off.

I get the four beeps and a minute later its dead - no gradual decline (as

did the old HA)

I usually hear a beep before the batteries go down. Sometimes 5 minutes

before, sometimes they go down right away. I never know.

I don't notice a whin when my batteries are getting low, however, my Freedom

beeps three times and I know that I have about five-10 minutes until the

batteries die. I also have gotten into a mode that I know just about when they

will go as I get almost exactly four days so I can anticipate that they will go

and if need be I change them before they die--like yesterday when I was going to

a concert.
