How long do batteries last in the Cochlear 3G processor?
Unlike hearing aids which only use one battery at a time, the Nucleus 3G cochlear implant processor uses three size 675 batteries at a time! Many of our cochlear implant customers report getting three to four days of constant usage from the batteries. When replacing the batteries in the 3G processor, ALL three batteries should be replaced. Trying to save money by only replacing one or two batteries will not work.
