FAQs

What type of battery is the Rayovac Hearing Aid 13?

It is a Size 13 (PR48, orange tab) single-use zinc-air button battery.

How long do these batteries typically last?

Battery life varies depending on the hearing aid model and usage, but these Size 13 batteries are designed for long-lasting performance, offering a capacity of 290 mAh.

How do I activate the battery?

After removing the colored tab, let the battery sit for about one minute. This allows air to enter the cell and begin the activation process.

Can I reuse these batteries?

No, these are single-use batteries and must be replaced once depleted. They cannot be recharged.

Are these batteries safe for the environment?

Yes, these Rayovac batteries are mercury-free, making them a more environmentally sound choice. Please dispose of them at designated collection points.

What does 'Zinc-Air' technology mean?

Zinc-air is a battery chemistry that uses zinc as the anode and oxygen from the air as the cathode. It is known for providing a stable voltage and high energy density, making it ideal for hearing aids.

Where should I store unused batteries?

Store unused batteries in their original packaging at room temperature. Avoid exposure to extreme heat, cold, or humidity.

Troubleshooting

Hearing aid not turning on or working intermittently.

Ensure the battery tab has been removed and the battery has had at least one minute to activate. Check that the battery is inserted correctly with the proper polarity (+/-). Try a fresh battery.

Battery seems to be draining quickly.

Ensure the battery tab was fully removed and the battery was allowed to activate. Store unused batteries in a cool, dry place. Check if the hearing aid is functioning correctly, as issues with the device itself can sometimes lead to rapid battery drain.

Difficulty removing the battery tab.

Gently peel the tab from the edge. If it's stuck, try using a plastic tool or the edge of a coin to lift it carefully. Avoid using sharp metal objects that could damage the battery.
