Introducing ZPower™ Microbatteries for Hearing Aids

Convenience

Rechargeable ZPower microbatteries are replaced only once per year. That means only one battery is needed per hearing aid each year.
 
*A ZPower battery provides a full day of usage on one charge.

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.
