FAQs
What does 'Type 13' mean?
'Type 13' refers to the standard size and designation for these hearing aid batteries, also commonly known as PR48 or ZL2. The orange color-coding is also a universal identifier for this type.
How long do these batteries typically last?
The lifespan varies depending on the hearing aid model and usage patterns, but these Rayovac Extra Advanced batteries are designed for long runtime, providing extended power for daily use.
When should I remove the colored tab?
You should remove the colored tab only when you are ready to insert the battery into your hearing aid. Once removed, the battery is activated and will begin to lose its charge over time.
Can I recharge these batteries?
No, Rayovac Extra Advanced Type 13 batteries are single-use zinc-air batteries and are not designed to be recharged.
How should I dispose of used batteries?
Please dispose of used batteries responsibly. They should be taken to designated collection points or returned to the point of sale, as they contain materials that require specific recycling processes.
What is the voltage of these batteries?
These batteries operate at a voltage of 1.45 V, suitable for most modern digital and analog hearing aids.
Are these batteries suitable for all hearing aids?
They are suitable for any hearing aid that specifically requires a Type 13 (PR48/ZL2) battery. Always check your hearing aid's manual to confirm the correct battery size.
Troubleshooting
Hearing aid not working after inserting new battery.
Ensure the colored tab has been completely removed and the battery has been activated for at least one minute before insertion. Check that the battery is inserted with the correct polarity (+/-) and that the battery compartment is clean.
Battery life seems shorter than expected.
Verify that the battery tab was removed just before use. Ensure the hearing aid is turned off when not in use to conserve power. Check for any obstructions in the hearing aid's microphone or receiver that might cause it to work harder.
Hearing aid volume fluctuates.
This could indicate a low battery or an intermittent connection. Try a fresh, properly activated battery. Ensure the battery contacts within the hearing aid are clean and free from debris.
