ZPower Silver-Zinc Batteries | Existing Zinc-Air Batteries | |
| Convenience | Rechargeable ZPower microbatteries
are replaced only once per year.
That means only one battery is needed
per hearing aid each year. |
Traditional zinc-air batteries must be replaced weekly. That means 50 or more batteries are needed per hearing aid each year. | |
| Performance | ZPower batteries are completely sealed and their performance is not susceptible to humidity or pollutants thus ensuring reliable performance. | Traditional zinc-air batteries require airflow to operate. Airflow openings allow dirt, debris and humidity to enter the hearing device, degrading reliability and overall performance. | |
| Environmental Advantages | ZPower batteries create little or no landfill waste. That’s because only one battery is used per hearing aid each year — and 95% of the battery elements can be recycled and reused. | 50 or more zinc-air batteries are used per hearing aid each year, resulting in large amounts of waste in landfills. | |
| Safety | ZPower batteries have a safe, mercury-free and water-based chemistry. | Traditional zinc-air batteries contain mercury. | |
