Hearing Aid Batteries and Accessories
At Puretone Hearing Clinic, we provide the clinical accessories and high-quality power solutions needed to keep the latest hearing aids performing at their peak.
TV Streamers: Clear Sound, Right to Your Ears
Our latest hearing aids can connect directly to your television using a small TV Streamer. Think of it like a wireless bridge: it takes the sound from your favourite movie or news program and sends it crystal-clear into your hearing aids. This allows you to adjust your volume without changing the sound for anyone else in the room.
Hearing Aid Accessories
Remote Microphones: Better Hearing in Crowds
A Remote Microphone is a small, clip-on clinical accessory that acts like a direct line to your ears. You simply have your companion wear it, or place it in the centre of the table. It picks up their voice and sends it directly into your hearing aids, cutting through the background chatter.
Rechargeable hearing aids, batteries and compatible accessories
The right power and connectivity options can make hearing aids easier to use every day. Bring your hearing aids, charger and phone to Puretone so we can check the exact models and help you compare practical options.
Is rechargeable technology right for me?
Rechargeable hearing aids can reduce the need to handle small disposable batteries. Compare the charging routine, ease of placing the devices in the charger, power access when travelling and your usual streaming habits. Battery runtime varies with the model, settings, streaming and battery age; ask about your expected use rather than assuming every device lasts the same number of hours.
Use the charger specified for your hearing aids. Some travel chargers have a built-in power bank; others need an external power supply. A carrying case is not necessarily a portable charger. If your devices stop charging or no longer last as expected, bring both the devices and charger for a check. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and have rechargeable battery servicing assessed by a hearing-care professional.
Disposable batteries and everyday care
Confirm the battery size printed in your device instructions or on your current packaging. Common zinc-air sizes are 10, 312, 13 and 675. The correct size and care routine depend on the hearing aid. Follow its instructions for switching off, opening the battery drawer and storage; these steps do not apply to every rechargeable model.
How long a disposable battery lasts depends on its size, hearing-aid power requirements and use. Keep an appropriate supply for your routine and travel. A sudden change in battery life is a reason to request a clean and check rather than assume a new hearing aid is needed.
Television streaming and phone calls
A compatible TV streamer can send television audio to your hearing aids and may allow you to adjust your listening volume separately. Compatibility depends on the hearing aids, streamer and television connections. Bring the model information before purchasing an accessory.
Phone streaming, hands-free calls and app controls are separate features. Support can differ by phone model, operating system and hearing aid. We can help check the functions available with your devices and discuss alternatives when direct streaming is not supported.
Remote microphones for difficult conversations
A compatible remote microphone places the microphone closer to the person you want to hear and sends that signal to your hearing aids. It can help when distance and background noise remain difficult. A clip-on microphone and a table microphone serve different situations; ask which arrangement fits your meetings, meals or family conversations.
Accessory, adjustment or hearing-aid upgrade?
If your current devices are no longer meeting your needs, start with a review. Cleaning, a repair, programming changes or a compatible accessory may help. If a new hearing aid is worth considering, your Audiologist can compare modern AI processing, rechargeable options and connectivity against your current devices and listening goals.

Decide which accessory solves your problem
If distance or group conversation is the concern, read our guide to hearing in background noise before comparing remote microphones. For chargers, phone calls and streaming, use our rechargeable and Bluetooth compatibility guide. Ask which accessory is compatible with the hearing aids you actually own.
