If used with a Med El Rondo Cochlear Implant, must one remove the batteries?

No, this unit does not apply heat to hearing aids or implants, thus it won't harm batteries.

My son wears hearing aids, so I am unfamiliar with the do's and dont's of cochlear implants. When we used the Dry Caddy we leave the batteries in the hearing aids.

Don't pry it off. Take the 2 screws out of the front of the switch and the back of the switch will separate from the back. The batteries will be exposed.

Yes. Once you peel off the rubberized top and bottom of the Sound Cube, use a butter knife to gently pry the plastic side with the on-off switch. Once its off, the battery slides right out. It's a BL-5C 3.7V 800mAh battery.

I contacted the Tekton rep and he said that the batteries are replaceable. There are two screws that need to be removed to get to them. I have not taken mine apart yet so I don't know how careful you will need to be when removing the cover. The device has 1 CR2032 3V Lithium cell and 3 LR44 1.5V button cells.

There are no removable batteries. The battery is internal and you charge the speaker with a standard USB cord.

The instructions say "replace with fresh AAA batteries". Taking the molded surround off is a hassle, hope not to have to do it often (ever).

Anytime you put your aids in any cleaning and/ or drying device you must take your batteries out if your aids. There is a place on the device to store while going thru its cycle. Its magnetic so very convenient. Highly recommend product. Worth the purchase. On another note since you are new to wearing hearing aids i also recommend when your warranty on your hearing aids expire purchase extenstion if offered or check with ESCO on line for insurance on loss and repairs... good luck

Ha! Funny you should ask because I have to change my battery also. If you look at your two ear pieces you will notice that half of one is half black and half green. That is where the batteries are located at. Gently, with your fingers, push up and that black cover should move and then lift it off. Once you are done make sure that you snap it back into place and that it is firmly secured.

Yes, these are the exact batteries originally used in Siemens rechargeable hearing aids.

No you need to put the batteries and remove the clear plastic piece from the battery compartment to expose the contact between the battery and the radio. All radios must use the same frequency

One of the ear pieces slides off and there are the batteries. A little switch is there. If you put in reg. batteries slide one way. If you put in rechargeable , put switch other way. Don't mess this up. I did and the batteries rusted .

Yes, I did a "soundboxectomy" by snipping stiches by the tail after one of ours stopped making noise. The batteries (2) were LR1130's. I ordered replacements on Amazon very cheaply but was unable to reactivate the device. Must have been a device failure but one of the batteries tested bad.

Yes! Open the battery compartment and remove the piece of plastic. Presto! They all work now!

I believe the batteries will be in the ear piece. In the pair (of another brand) I have at home, if you pop the foam earpiece off, there is a battery inside each one.

You can use it no problem, but keep the batteries in. There is no reason to remove them. I used mine that way with no problems.

I try not to put mine in the unit but I have made the mistake already and left them in my hearing aids and they seem to be fine. If you're talking about the magnetic holder they don't seem to bother my batteries

Hello Joy; I am not sure why these batteries have a secure sticker, but the VA told me that they are Oxygen activated. Whatever that means, I am not sure. I believe these a newer advance type of battery of German manufacture. The VA suggest that you pull the little sticker off, or in some cases you pull the battery off a rubber substrate and allow them to set for a minute or two before placing them your hearing aids, as it supposedly makes them last longer. Sorry, but I am not up on battery technology, but the ones I purchased on Amazon lasted longer than the ones I received from the VA.
