Batteries are expensive and poop out after ten to twelve hours. Mine, Phonax, has Bluetooth and has long battery life. The Va provided mine for free because I have service related hearing loss. If you are a veteran, drag your mangey ass down to the nearest VA and sign up.
They saved my life when they found cancer on my neck and the back of my tongue. They feared I could have lost my tongue, but the tumor was on the surface.
My VA is not flawless, their coffee sucks. Still, it is free.
