I am glad my journey was helpful. I don't know if you saw my later post where I lost my external processor at the vets office and was able to track where I lost it to no avail. After searching for a couple of weeks and returning several times to see if anyone turned it in, I gave in and had to get a refurbished one. It is okay, but does not seem to be as good as my other one. Just be careful with the tether. The tether clips do not last long and break easily which is why I lost mine. Other than that, I am still amazed at the difference it has made...not perfect, but much better than not hearing anything at all.

After giving your response further thought, I’m still left wondering why you required a tether and clip with the OSIA 2 transducer magnet? Does the transducers magnet weaken over time? Was it possibly not positioned correctly over the magnet under your scalp? Also, seeing you lost it at the Vet’s office, was it somehow dislodged by your pet rubbing up against it? and why would the tethers clip give way over time? Curious what Cochlear said about that?
I realize that “hair length” could contribute to the transducers falling off due to hair being between the transducers magnet and magnet under the scalp possibly ( as a guy I wear my hair pretty short (1/2 to 3/4 inches long)?
Thank you
