Yes you should! I have the Freedom, I put the sound processor in the dryer. I do not put the rechargeable battery or the blister batteries in it. here is a link to Youtube. It will show you how to use the Zephr! (CochlearAmericas "Using the Zephr") http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5z8pxADGAn0 Hope this helps!

I don't put the batteries in it but it says you can. I put the whole hearing aid in it.

I've had numerous issues with mine working with my cochlear implants. VERY hit and miss. Try consulting with your audiologist. You may need a special program for your aids.

Hello Rosalind, The battery enclosure is hinged from the outside area where the on/off & volume controls are located. The raised area toward the inside of the ear allows you to open it up and change batteries. You need to remember to remove the tape tab from the air alkaline hearing aid batteries about 1/2 hr befor using them.Good luck, BillD in AZ.

Sorry, I am not familiar with Miracle Ear hearing aids. I understand MiracleEar requires batteries. If so Zephyr would help keep moisture away overnight from the batteries and control moisture in the device.

you get a charger and the iCom pilot. It also has the instruction booklet. My hearing aids work with this but the wireless remote control function doesn't cause my hearing aids are too old. I'll sell it to you for $200 here on amazon if you're interested.

Yes, I put one in mine and my daughter's. I mounted the electronic package behind the right ear so that I could operate the buttons with my right hand. Place it where it won't interfere with the goggle strap.ADDENDUMThe control buttons are inadequately tactile, so I must remove my right glove to operate it; for me, a small price to pay for the sound quality, which is:Awesome! I have used Skull Candy, Sena, and 2 others, the names I cannot recall, and the Uclear has, hands down, the best sound. I cannot comment on the the intercom function as I only use it to listen to music and answer calls while skiing or boarding. If you want good music, this is the one.

Hi Bill, and the answer is yes. My audiologist paired by Compilot after I had been using it for about three weeks. There was no difference that I could recognize after she did it, and I have a lot of respect for her. I think she's excellent. My use of the Compilot is especially for the tv and desktop computer. On both, as I said, out of the box. My usual disclaimer, this comment is from my personal experience only. Good luck. LarryPS I forgot to say there may be reason to have it paired for cells; at least the manual says so. To my shame, I do not have a cell.

Audio is what I have, however the battery placement looks the same from what I can tell.

If you're asking about changing the battery, twice I went to a battery specialist and they had no battery that works. When the manufacture talks about changing the battery, I think they mean you have to change the whole base where the controls are. I don't know what you mean by the "ear part", if you mean the small detachable plastic that connects he stem to the soft ear buds, the manufacturer should be able to replace these. I've recently experienced a problem with these as they don't stay attached to the stem that goes to the base. Which brings me to the stem problem. Yes, they're made of a very brittle plastic any they break off very easily at the base. I don't think you can glue the think back on as it has to be flexible to adjust for comfortable use. Now, his applies only to the earlier models. Last year I obtained a Version 5.0 and they've taken care of the problem by reinforcing the end of the stem at the base. There should be no problem with the stem breaking away from the stem in the absence of abusive use. Otherwise, I don't really understand your problem. If it's question of the stem breaking off, as described above, and whole thing not being able to stay in place for it to function as intended, then order a new TV ear but not the base as Version 5.0 will work with the base of an earlier version. I hope I've been of some help. Bill Abdalla, West Palm Beach, FL

Contact Plantronics directly and get the RIGHT one. If you plug it into a generic charger and the voltage is too high it will ruin the battery, thus ruining your earpiece too since the battery isnt replaceable.

I took it to a professional. I already had a Pioneer screen head unit. It took him 30min and he charged $100 to put both in.

In my experience the Zephyr Dryer works with any and all hearing aids. It helps to dry them and reduce internal moisture that can cause damage to components.

Just to make sure, I bought the headset that has the 2 earpieces with a wire in between, but the picture this is showing. Either way, I store mine in the clear hard plastic box it came in, or the next time I finish a tin of Altoids, one of those boxes.

Your headset should have come with a operations manual/literature. I received instructions with my set.

When I plugged my speaker in the computer found new hardware and installed what was needed for it to work. I hope this helped.

There are two kinds of batteries available for that model. The Nickel Cadmium and the Lithium Ion. The Lithium Ion lasts a lot longer. Also as to what i understand, that comes with a rechargeable type. You might want to get these instead. Also, as i have consulted some Otolaryngologist (ear Specialists) these sound amplifiers act as a poor substitute for hearing aids. But i guess you know by now that real hearing aids are costly. That is probably why you got this unit, as i did myself. But for me it served my purpose.

Open the side panel of one of the ear pieces and press it downward to slide the panel open and change the batteries. Use the same kind of batteries either regular Alkaline or the rechargeable type and set the switch to regular or rechargeable the same as your batteries.
