Rayovac - Extra Batteries for Hearing Aids Size 312 Mercury Free Long-Lasting Zinc and Air Hearing Batteries, 1.45V. (60 Batteries)

Good brand and there's a lot in the box. The container is extremely hard to open. I have to cut them. The scissors and it's still hard to remove but once I get them in my hearing aids they they work good

Perfecto

The Reese's Law was meant to save childrens lives from swallowing a coin battery; however, the law's implementation had unintended consequences for Seniors wearing removeable battery hearing aids. Seniors cannot cut open the new hearing aid packaging. All you need to do is look on Youtube for Rayovac explaination for how to cut open the new package or lookup other Amazon reviews under Rayovac 312 hearing aid batteries or other brands, where you see similar comments regarding package issues. Some say don't buy the brand. The option is to import batteries from Germany at 25% higher cost with no child proof packaging. Many say with the sharpest scissors and good hand strength, you cannot cut the packaging plastic to remove a battery. That was my experience and sore hands. Let alone the risk of cutting your hand on the sharp plastic or by the scissors. Seniors with health issues, like poor hand strength, frozen arthritis joints or low vision, are suffering from this packaging implementation. It is 3 years since the bill was passed. Current inventory now has the new packaging. Likely it will be another 3 years after a law exception or new law revision to get a package change in place because manufacturers have retooled to produce the new packaging. I use 60 batteries in 3 months. My hearing aides stream sound to my cell phone, tablet, notebook, zoom meeting sound, alarm clock and tv. Rayovac could have used thinner plastic to make the enclosed batteries. It appears the only real change was hot pressing a dimple seal in the package. I did attempt to cut off the battery sides like I was instructed by Rayovac customer service. But you cannot cut deep enough into the plastic to allow the battery to slip out like on Rayovacs video. I was able to slide a flat screw driver between the case sides and gap the case enough to pull out the battery. I bought a waterproof case that holds 32 batteries. My new normal. Perhaps it is time to raise our Senior voices to Congress and Rayovac. REESE'S LAW HISTORY Reese's Law was co-written and introduced in Congress by multiple representatives and senators and was named in honor of Reese Hamsmith. Congressional sponsors In the House of Representatives, the bill (H.R. 5313) was co-led by Representatives Robin Kelly (D-IL), Jodey Arrington (R-TX), and Ted Lieu (D-CA). In the Senate, a companion bill (S. 3278) was introduced by Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN). The person behind the law's name Reese's Law is named for Reese Hamsmith, an 18-month-old who died in 2020 after swallowing a button-cell battery. Following her daughter's death, Trista Hamsmith began advocating for stricter battery safety standards and founded the organization Reese's Purpose. The bill's passage The final legislation passed Congress and was signed into law by President Biden on August 16, 2022. It mandates new safety requirements for button and coin-cell batteries and products that contain them, to prevent accidental ingestion by children.

Las compro por la relación precio/calidad, pero ODIO ese empaque contra niños, es más fácil que la batería salga volando porque está tan duro que hasta con las tijeras es difícil cortarlo.. 😡

Standard batteries I need for my hearing aids
