Question 2 / 10

Do you want a rechargeable hearing aid?

Rechargeable hearing aids from EarDeals use the latest lithium-ion batteries available on the market. They are small, light and fast charging. You can charge them for shorter periods or 3 hours for a full day of use. Lithium-ion rechargeable hearing aids last a long time.

The alternative option is replaceable batteries that require you to replace them every 2-5 days depending on the battery type and how many calls and streaming of audio you do. Replaceable batteries will affect the size of the hearing aid. Only the smallest replaceable battery size is smaller than lithium-ion replaceable battery options.

If you choose a lithium-ion replaceable battery option, some bigger brands let you choose a special charger, too. This charger case has its own lithium-ion battery. When you place the hearing aids inside the case, they will be charged by the case's battery. You do not need to have the case plugged into the wall to charge the hearing aids. Most charger cases will charge a pair of hearing aids to full charge three or four times before the case needs to be charged again.

Rechargeable hearing aids may be easier to use if you have dexterity issues. Rechargeable hearing aids are available in all of the latest software levels for all major hearing aid brands.

At EarDeals we do not charge extra for rechargeable options. The price listed is the full price including fitting, adjustment and servicing. Note that EarDeals also doesn’t charge you extra for rechargeable hearing aid cases, whereas many hearing aid retailers charge more than $400 extra for rechargeable hearing aids.

Question 3 / 10

Are you a pensioner or DVA cardholder?

Did you know? If you are a pensioner or DVA cardholder you may be eligible for FREE government-funded hearing aids and services! Applying to access these services and determining your eligibility only takes five minutes.

If you prefer to purchase a device above the technology level offered by the government-funded devices, you can use a government voucher to reduce part of the final cost of your hearing aid of choice. This is the best option if you are a pensioner and you want a higher-level device.

Government-funded devices are a fantastic start to addressing hearing loss. Many brands have started to offer new features such as hands-free phone calls using Bluetooth and some have rechargeable options. These are features that were formerly only available on the private market. Government-funded devices are just as small as privately purchased devices. You can and should, of course, make this choice together with your EarDeals Audiologist.

Question 4 / 10

Do you want a Telecoil hearing aid?

A telecoil or t-coil is a small coil of copper wire inside the hearing aid. Its function is to automatically pick up the radio waves of public service announcement systems and then play the audio directly through the hearing aid. This is a form of technology designed to add a form of connectivity for those wearing hearing aids.

Telecoil functionality is available across major brands, in some cases, it’s also available with Bluetooth connectivity and rechargeable capabilities. The telecoil is a wire that does take up space. These hearing aids are therefore slightly larger than the standard Bluetooth or rechargeable hearing aids. Telecoil connectivity is often found where public service announcements are important. Such places include transportation hubs like airports, stations and public transport. You will also find telecoil connectivity in churches, museums, art galleries and movie theatres.

Question 9 / 10

Are you price-sensitive?

Note: If you are price-sensitive, the main consideration you need to make is that hearing aids come in different technology levels.

Each hearing aid is offered in three to four levels of technology, depending on the brand. The higher you go in technology level, the higher the price. The higher the technology level, the better the performance of the hearing aid and the greater support for those living with hearing loss.

If you live a very active lifestyle and hearing in noisy environments is paramount to work and socialising, a higher level of technology may be recommended. The higher you go in level and price, the better the hearing aid will perform in noisy environments. It also affects how well the hearing aid adjusts to hearing environment changes.

If you are someone who lives alone and the socialising you do is limited to quieter environments such as, a cup of tea in the back yard with no wind and one-on-one conversations with a friend, a lower-level device may be more appropriate.
