Hearing Loss: Come introduce yourself and connect with others

Earlier this year I upgraded my 4 year old Oticon hearing aides to new Phonak hearing aides. Today I went to Connect Hearing center for quarterly free checkup. They updated firmware and checked them out. They are working fine. I listen to audio books via bluetooth connection to iphone 14 when I go to the gym. And I listen to TV via Phonak bluetooth TV adaptor which make TV sound like sereo surround sound. The Oticon hearing aides used batteries I had to replace every 4 days. The new Phonak aides are recharable by placing them in charter at night. I don't know what the firmware update did, but I know they are constantly working on ways to improve filtering out noise and making voices clearer so it is good to get updates regularly.

I've worn Phonaks for many years and have new Phonak Lumity UP 90..Amazing clarity for me and quite an improvement. I wear 2 BTEs. I am able to get more sound going into my nearly defunk left ear which is a great help. Only had them for little over 2 weeks. Brain still adjusting. Phonak has the power I need with 675 batteries. I'm not a fan of rechargeable aids and I use Power One batteries which give me about 2 and 1/2 weeks of use.
