Ear Gear

Protects your BTE hearing aids from loss, dirt and sweat. And they look cool too!

Ear Gear can put your worries over losing your hearing aids to rest. The corded versions can be clipped to the back of your shirt, meaning your processors no longer fall off easily and get lost.

Ear Gear is made from a double wall nylon-spandex blend which protects your hearing instruments from dirt and sweat; Ear Gear is both washable and durable.

While Ear Gear provides an effective protection against moisture, it is not 'waterproof' and therefore is not suitable for swimming, showering or heavy sweating.

Suitable for everyone but ideal for children, who are notorious for taking off their hearing instruments or playing with them. Ear Gear was especially designed for children by a frustrated parent whose daughter found her hearing aids uncomfortable to wear and had a habit of hiding them around the house!

Ear Gear comes in a wide variety of colours and collar clips, and in different sizes to suit different BTE hearing instruments:

Original- which fits BTEs from 1.25" to 2" approx. (3.2cm - 5cm approx)

FM- which fits BTEs from 2" to 3" approx. (5cm - 7.6cm approx)

Mini Curved - which fits BTEs up to 1.25" approx. (3.2cm)

Cochear- which fits most Advanced Bionics and Cochlear processors from 2" to 3" approx. (5cm - 7.6cm approx)

 

Available in a variety of different fun and attractive colours, Ear Gear can also transform your hearing aid into a fashion accessory!

The graph below is the result of an electroacoustical analysis test performed by Oticon. The green line shows the sound coming into a hearing aid without Ear Gear and the pink line shows the sound quality with Ear Gear. The results of this audioscan test indicate that there is no more than a 1dB reduction with Ear Gear; essentially it is acoustically transparent.
