    My friends N5 was at a bottom of a lake for 2 weeks until some Police Drivers got it out as a training exercise, surprise surprise, it was still working, just a bit slimy. He was very shocked that it was still working.

    Hearing aids are useless

    I'm exactly the same. Bilateral speech discrim is 32% but I have 0% speech discrim when wearing just one hearing aid. I feel like I don't hear a thing when wearing just one hearing aid, no matter what ear it is. It's weird how it all works etc!

    Questions about implant/hearing aid options

    Would they put the BAHA on her deaf side and it'll vibrate the sound to her working cochlear on the other side so she will be getting sound from her deaf side altho in her working ear??

    Hearing aids are useless

    My Phonak Naida S IX UPs don't sound robot. They sound great! After reading older threads, people say Sound Recover makes them sound more robot altho I never thought my Naidas sounded robot ever!

    Hearing aids are useless

    I'm in the UK and is friends with someone else who wore Siemens Reflex DP and transferred to another hospital to get Phonak Nathos SP which is the NHS name for Phonak Nadia SP. She does a blog so I'll find the links and maybe you can ask her about how to transfer and what she likes about the...

    Problems with Advanced Bionics Naida CI

    ""I was using the dry and store but not everyday."" Your answer is here! The dry n store is meant to be used every night whiles asleep!! Why store them else where as well! You may as well store them in the dry n store and get them dried out every night as well! I use mine every night without...

    Domino Pro vs Phonak Smartlink FM System questions

    If it's the Smartlink + and the MLXi receiver and it's set up properly then that system should detect background noise and raise the speech line by 8db to help in noise. For this to work tho, it needs to be set up properly. Also what cdmeggers is saying, is something that will help so you need...

    Hearing Aids & Moisture

    I use my dry n store for my Naidas but I don't put my earmolds in them. I put my earmolds in water / savlon over night and then use a puffer to blow moisture out of the tubing in the morning. Some of my friends who have real trouble with moisture, actually carry around the puffer to blow out...

    Hearing Aids & Moisture

    My electric dry n store is by far better then a plastic container with a tablet in. If the plastic container is all what some people can afford as the electric ones are expensive then they are better then nothing but I do personally think my electric dry n store is working so much better in...

    Got my new Hearing Aids =)

    Botts, hope you don't mind me asking? When you had your Naida. Did your battery draw ever wear away in the time you had it from turning it on and off? Also exactly how long did you have your Naida? I'm just interested in knowing how long my battery draws are likely to last and thought you'll...

    Got my new Hearing Aids =)

    If you wanted silver battery draws tho, they'll only cost around the $4 dollar mark. The audio shoe is the expensive part :) I do agree tho that black goes well with silver. Oh by the way, Phonak recommend leaving the audio shoes on at all times. They said they are made to leave on.

    Got my new Hearing Aids =)

    The problem with the TV is down to your TV not the ComPilot. A lot of newer TV's don't allow the red and white connectors. I had to get an adaptor to allow it to work. ""Digital to Analogue Audio Converter Some of the more recent televisions you see in the shops have a more limited range of...

    New hearing aids (Unitron Max 20SP) Woo-Hoo

    Looking at the fitting ranges, the Naida UP has a bigger fitting range and can fit lesser losses unlike the Unitron. This is because of the feature Sound Recover which the Unitron doesn't have.

    New hearing aids (Unitron Max 20SP) Woo-Hoo

    I've just looked up the Unitron HA and in terms of power it's equal to the Naida Q UP not the Naida Q SP which is why the Unitron properly sounds better. God Luck with the Unitron but to trial them fairly, you should try the Naida Q UP rather then the Naida Q SP.

    CI Surgery approved today

    If it helps, my friends CI is a Cochlear Freedom. Her implant is super old so she's still on the Freedom processor. Having your old map on one processor and the new on another could work, but would you have to carry your spare processor about? My friend found she had to revert back to her...
