Do you leave the ear mold on the hearing aid inside the dryer?

I'm not sure what you mean by ear mold. However, you need to remove the batteries and leave the hearing aids in their most "open" position inside the hearing aid dryer.

I just take the battery out of aid, leave the door open and put it in the dryer.

Do NOT dry them in the dryer. Dry them in the open air. The heat from the dryer will destroy the way they work.

I didn't test it, however it's much less than my previous dryer. I have a problem ear that if something it too loud I can't hear more than static. this dryer doesn t cause this to happen even on high.

Yes, they dry completely since the bottom is ventilated. I have not encountered any mildew/mold buildup, but it would still be wise to clean it once a month or so.

Enclosing it in plastic may cause moisture to be trapped inside the tube and cause damage. If you use a dryer for your hearing aids put that device in there as well to help with moisture.

Yes. You are not suppose to put them in the dryer, but I have by accident and it was fine.

Dust no, humidity if you don't have a window close to your dryer it could be a problem....My dryer sits next to a window, so I have that window open everytime I am using it.....It works like a charm.....

I do. Not sure if they would get moldy if you didn't. I put mine in a smaller container for easier handling and refrigerate the container as well as the smaller one.

The dryer isn't very loud. You can have a conversation on the phone or watch TV while the dryer is working. You might have to increase the volume to hear everything clearly.

Cleaning Do not take earplugs apart. Clean after each use. Wipe clean with a damp cloth as needed. Do not immerse earplugs in water. Do not clean with harsh chemicals. Alcohol is not recommended.

Haven't needed to. I fill the 'tray' part as level as possible and securely put the top half back on. After rinsing and some small particles come out, I don't have a problem.

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.

Batteries are to be taken out and placed on the magnetic strip so they don't get loss. Opened hearing aids are then placed in the dryer.

I wear ear plugs when using. It's definitely loud, but saves me at least an hour when drying my car. You may irritate the neighbors, but you don't need it for that long when drying your car.

I think it's best for the hearing aid to open the battery door wide. Once zinc/air batteries are exposed to the air it really doesn't matter, to their life, whether they're in use or not. You open the battery door solely to expose the interior of the hearing aid to the dry environment within the dehumidifier.

I keep the batteries inside the earpieces when they are in the dehumidifier, but I open the earpieces just a little. I put the yellow insert in the microwave once a week for one minute, as instructed. Wish we didn't have to buy the container every time the insert needs replacing.

No not at all. Nothing like a dryer. The noise you hear is the small container of water boiling.
