What is the chance of a deaf woman ( more than 95% hearing ability lost ) to hear something with this device? Any chance?

It might help somewhat, but you really need to get a real hearing aid from a real ear doctor or maybe one of these places that sell hearing aids without seeing a doctor. It will amplify sound, but it picks up all sounds in the background. I wish you the best of luck. I have one ear that is nothing but distortion and the other is maybe 75 percent. To much music and working in a loud factory for 35 years.

The device is mostly dependent on the volume of your computer. It does not have a separate speaker function, plus it is only for one ear at a time, so unless you get dual earpieces, this probably wouldn't work for you. Kind regards.

The product description certainly says it works with hearing aids, but I have not tried it so can't confirm. Perhaps others are using with hearing aids. It is a high quality product, so should do what it says it will do.

This device should be able to measure anything in the human hearing range. Note that some ultra- and sub-sonic frequencies can affect humans, but are not directly "audible".

I have a thirty(30%) hearing loss, so my expereince may not be normal.I hear thr alarm fine, but , when I first wanted to confirm it was working, I had to hold it to my ear to hear the ticking.The alarm itself is easlier heard. the ticking, in my opinion, will not interfere with the homework

I could not get it to work at all. I threw it away. I will most likely have to shell out for a professional aide, although my hearing is only slightly impaired.

Yes, though the boost is really very minimal. If you have more than moderate hearing loss, this item will not help much. Mine ended up in the trash.

I would say that it might not. My mother was unable to manage it and she was notquite blind and the amplification was insufficient.

This headset worked *ok* for about 5 days. Then...No one could hear a thing I was saying! I didn't have a problem with My end of hearing. Maybe she might try to push the plug in harder? Personally, I would return it asap

Technically yes. Reality...no. The hardware button on the unit is defective in design and therefore increases the volume randomly during use to 100%. You'll be deaf after it does. Given the premium price of this unit, you're getting robbed. I was not able to return mine. 100% of my money was wasted.

It is a loud piercing whistle. Depending upon the extent of the hearing loss, I believe your grandmother should be able to hear it. The whistle certainly is the loudest I have ever heard.

I bought this to assist my mother with her hearing, which is poor at best. This device works very well but not meant to replace custom hearing aids, now if can just get her to use it!

Only if there are no other complication m like loss in certain frequencies. This device only amplifies what it hears. and does not distinguish between other things.

I do not know how bad your hearing is but it really helped my mother . It has a microphone to pick up sound so whatever the sound system is putting out will be picked up and amplified . Good luck

I am also partially deaf in both ears but especially in the right ear and find it hard to hear on a telephone using my right ear. I do not use hearing aids (as found them fairly useless!!!), but find I can hear clearly with the Shokz Wraparound in both earphones, so I should imagine you would be ok with them. I was surprised how good the sound was with the Shokz earphones. Good luck with them.

This device did not work at all for my husbands hearing. It was unable to pick up any sound that he could hear. Wish the product would of worked for us.It is not broke that we can tell. Just not able to perform as was expected.
