Some of the battery basics that the company makes part of their education campaign are writing down the date of installation for new batteries to determine how long they will typically last for the individual. With winter here, low humidity may dry out batteries reducing battery life, which can also happen at higher altitudes.

During hot summer months with high humidity, hearing aid users should use a dry aid kit to keep the circuitry, electronic components and batteries free of moisture from the air and/or perspiration. Always store batteries at room temperature and never carry loose batteries in a pocket or purse as coins, keys or other batteries may short them out, cause a leak or even rupture them.
