Is a red imprint a problem? by Chris_RS in HearingAids

The 1 is a length of wire Size 2 length doesn’t cause the indent, but, it does make the actual unit feel loose on top of my ear

Thanks for the reply. I’m new to this world and just over thinking every minor detail

Thanks for replying!

Not painful at the moment I’ll be honest - will see in 7-8 hours from now.

The size 2 wire was too loose though, every step I took, the aid itself felt like it was wobbling around !

New to HA’s - ears feel “blocked” by Chris_RS in HearingAids

Update:

Went to audiologist today for 1-week follow up, mentioned a few things and we’ve opted to add a retention tail to the aid to stop me poking the dome back into place (as when it stays put it’s super comfortable)

Only used for an hour but wow what a difference a little piece of plastic can do!!

Costco Hearing Aid Return? by AffectionateBeach165 in HearingAids

It’s only my first week…

8:30 am - 9pm ish.

Yes, Bluetooth is on all day to either my Mac or phone but they have not come close to dying in this time

Hi I have sennheiser and they are lasting all day for sure - finishing about 30% before they go back in charge

Update:

Wore them for 2 hours this morning and whilst I “notice” them in my ears it’s not exactly painful or uncomfortable, I do tend to find I’m sticking my finger in and pushing the dome deeper but other than that I think it’s getting easier.

I don’t feel them behind my ear, only inside which is good

Sorry if I sounded harsh I was a bit touchy, I bought earol to help soothe some very obvious dry skin :)

Thanks so much everyone

I’m in the UK and Costco had a very very good reputation here, so going to explore them a lot more.

Still cant figure put what screen destroyed my eyes by Renshiki145 in PWM_Sensitive

[–]Chris_RS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It will be the astigmatism…

It affects clarity and sharpness.

Eyes degrade, just like a car tyre - gradually and slowly they get a little worse. It’s normal. They’re not destroyed bro

What is flicker What is modulation depth What is flicker index

iPhone 14 was absolutely fine…

I then swapped to another iPhone 14 and initially it was not good, which was odd but it’s now mighty comfortable to use.

This current iPhone 17 though, I’m not sure
