Power One Pocketcharger Review

This is a very handy charger that allows me to use only 2 sets of rechargeable batteries to power my hearing aids. The charger has it's own internal battery which allows you to charge two batteries when you are not near a power source. That said, the charger itself uses a usb plug for its power, so any computer or power brick that you have can serve as the main power source for the charger. The charger does come with a transformer that provides 1 usb port. When the charger is plugged in it will charge the onboard battery and 2 hearing aid batteries at the same time. Separate status lights provide individual status regarding the ongoing charge for the main battery and each of the hearing aid batteries.

My hearing aids use 312 type batteries, which can reportedly be charged 1000 times each. Using throw away batteries I get about 3 days use. Whereas my rechargeables will on average last me 1 full day; occasionally if the environment is really working the hearing aids the batteries will give out an hour or so earlier. I just put the depleted batteries in the charger and drop the spare pair in.

The charger is "smart", and will analyze the charge state of the batteries and determine the best charging strategy that should be used for each battery. It will top off a cell that only needs to be topped off, and will fully discharge batteries that are mostly discharged. Fully discharged batteries start charging right away.

I do have some difficulty getting my hearing aids to start, sometimes when using the rechargable batteries, and this might be frustrating for some. The cause of the difficulty isnt clear, but gently squeezing the battery door for a few seconds gets the units to start. Speculation is that the batteries are either a slightly smaller diameter, or are unable to consistently provide initial surge-level voltages during the aid's power-up. Sometimes if the aids are jostled they will reboot. This appears to be an issue involving my particular hearing aids and the brand of batteries (Forza/OnePower) and is not an issue of the charger.
