I have been using hearing aids for 4 months now. These batteries were the ones I ordered after the free Energizer batteries ran out. I get 5 to 7 days depending on how many hours a day I wear the hearing aids which run from 6 to 10 hours a day. I cannot tell very well when to change them though, usually after I say "Huh" to 3 people in a row which is probably too long. The effectiveness does not drop off quickly but very gradually. I wish it was easier to tell when they weren't working. When I was not wearing the hearing aids I would open the battery holder so the batteries no longer were in contact to extend their use.

Things I liked:
- The packaging is very nice. I remove the plastic dispenser wheel from the cardboard backing and it fits nicely in the hearing aids case. I always have up to 8 extra batteries when needed. I put the used batteries back in the dispenser when expired. It is easy to tell the difference between used and new. I will be looking for a place to recycle them when I get the next package.
- Batteries seem consistent in how long they last, they also appear quality made.
- Great price and free shipping, but that is Amazon not the batteries.

Things I disliked:
- They don't taste very good. Oh wait that is for a different review! Yeah I am getting older.

Nothing I dislike so call it a definite recommendation from me.

Edit: now 3 months later.
During a visit to my audiologist I was informed that my Hearing Aid will beep when it is time for a battery change. So I let it run to that point and in fact when it did beep I thought it was someone else's cell phone. I have since found that using this method these batteries last between 10 and 14 days for me. I was fairly shocked how much longer they did last compared to my preconceived notion as to how often to replace them. I have not noticed any degradation to any functions to the hearing aids at all over that period of time.

Now I am wondering if anyone knows where these can be sent to be recycled? It seems a shame to throw out something that appears that it can be so easily reused.

All my previous hearing aid batteries have lasted only about 8 hours. These last a full week! Truly amazing.

I am happy with my order. When the batteries arrived, I saw that they were the same kind my audiologist sells at her office. They were always of good strength. I think these that came through the mail are also. (Still in early stages of using them.) I recommend them. Rayovac Proline Size 312 Hearing Aid Batteries, 48 Pack

These batteries seem to last longer than the standard type (non-pro). Also, For the price and free shipping, they are a great value.

Lasted as long as batteries from hearing doctor but cheaper. Seem good for the price.

These work great for my Oticon hearing aid. I haven't found any that last as long, or come at such a great bulk rate. This is a full year's supply!!

The package came on time and all of the batteries have worked well. I have used over half of the batteries so far and they last about a week in my hearing aids. i am pleased with the product and the seller.

This is the same batteries that are sold at the doctors office, but much less expensive. The only difference is that these are the new version "mercury free" which helps our environment. These batteries lasts just as long as the older version. Also, free shipping! As a bonus, the seller gives you a link to Rayovac to get a free single package of batteries. Definitely a win win situation. This is definitely an offer that you can't refuse.

I was quoted a price from the hearing aid supplier of $1.25 each for new batteries after the free ones ran out. I was able to purchase these on Amazon and they definitely live up to the quality of the originals. These were for my mom and on a limited income, they were something she could afford! Thanks, RayOVac!

I bought a bunch of Rayovac 312 batteries, I was happy because they were much cheaper online than at the Doctor's office, but now I know why. In spite of the May 2014 expiration each one of the battieries were half dead. After 10-15 minutes you'd hear the dreaded pap-pup-pip sound... indicating that the battery is dead. I am trying to look for another brand, but it seems that the reviews are not promising either.
