Rechargeable Hearing Aids
Rechargeable hearing aids have become the most popular choice for patients at Audibility — and for good reason.
Modern lithium‑ion technology makes them simple, reliable, and ideal for everyday use.
Around 99% of the hearing aids we prescribe are now rechargeable, unless a patient specifically requests a traditional battery‑powered model.

Why Choose Rechargeable Hearing Aids?
Rechargeable hearing aids offer a convenient, environmentally friendly alternative to disposable batteries.
There’s no fiddling with tiny battery doors, no need to carry spares, and no risk of a battery running out unexpectedly during the day.
Fast charging: typically fully charged in around 3 hours
All‑day performance: easily lasts a full day — and often much more
Exceptional stamina: some models offer up to 48 hours on a single charge
Reliable power: no gradual “fade” as batteries run low
For most people, it’s as simple as placing the hearing aids in the charger overnight and waking up to a full day of hearing.
Charging Options to Suit Your Lifestyle
Table‑Top Chargers
The standard option — compact, stable, and ideal for the bedside table.
Simply drop the hearing aids into the cradle and they begin charging automatically.
Smart Chargers
Perfect for people who travel, work away from home, or enjoy weekends outdoors.
These smart chargers include their own internal power reserve, allowing you to fully recharge your hearing aids up to three times without needing a plug socket, making them ideal for those who travel a lot or prefer a cable free routine.
Rechargeable Options in Every Style
Receiver‑in‑the‑ear (RITE/RIC)
In‑the‑ear (ITE)
In‑the‑canal (ITC)
“Invisible” deep‑canal options
This means you can choose the size and style that suits your hearing needs, comfort, and cosmetic preferences — without compromising on convenience.
