Phonak Rechargeable Digital Hearing Aids
Emergency Power Pack
One original innovation over and above everyone else that Phonak introduced is an additional “Power Pack” that can be attached to your charger. This device can be used when you don’t have access to a plug. The power pack is re-useable and can provide up to seven additional charges of your hearing aids. In essence, it is a week’s supply of power. With the new Marvel hearing aids, they have again introduced a power pack to attach to their larger recharger unit.

Audeo Belong Rechargeable Hearing Devices
As I said, the Audeo Belong hearing device range was the first of the Lithium-ion devices to be released. It is also the first Phonak hearing device range with a rechargeable option. However, Phonak offered the option as part of their new range of Belong hearing aids which came with an upgraded operating system, the latest version of Phonak's SoundRecover2 and new microphones and programme buttons. It wasn't introduced as a stand-alone product like the Cellion with Signia.
The range uses the existing Venture chipset and is available in four technology levels, the 90, the 70, the 50 and the 30. The rechargeable option is not available in the lowest 30 level of technology which means that if you want to get this amazingly popular device you will have to move up to the 50 level at the least.
