Bone Conduction for Natural Hearing
The “400-HABC2” employs a bone conduction method, which differs from traditional in-ear hearing aids. This design allows users to hear ambient sounds while simultaneously supporting daily conversations, making it suitable for those who find earplug-type devices uncomfortable. The neckband style ensures a secure fit, and with a weight of approximately 35g, it offers a lightweight and natural wearing experience. Its open-ear structure promotes breathability, and an IPX5 equivalent waterproof rating (for the main unit) makes it practical for everyday use, resistant to sweat and rain droplets.
Remote Microphone for Clearer Conversations
One of the key features of this device is its accompanying remote microphone. While it can be worn on the user’s chest for general use, it can also be handed directly to the person speaking. This function is particularly useful for important conversations, such as discussions with family members or medical explanations from a doctor, ensuring that crucial information is not missed. By picking up sound closer to the source, the microphone transmits voices to the bone conduction hearing aid, enhancing speech clarity even in noisy environments.
Simple Operation for Ease of Use
Designed with user-friendliness in mind, the hearing aid and remote microphone automatically pair when powered on, eliminating the need for complex connection procedures each time it’s used. This ensures a smooth start whenever the device is needed. Furthermore, the volume can be adjusted independently for the left and right ears to suit individual hearing preferences. Operation is confirmed with vibration feedback, providing intuitive control over volume settings.
Enjoy TV at Your Own Volume
For those who find it difficult to hear TV audio, the remote microphone can be connected to the television using the included 3.5mm cable. This allows TV sound to be transmitted directly to the bone conduction hearing aid, enabling users to enjoy programs at their preferred volume without disturbing others in the household. This feature helps alleviate common household conflicts over TV volume, making it easier for families to enjoy television together.
Versatile as Bluetooth Headphones
Supporting Bluetooth Ver.5.4, the device can also connect to smartphones and tablets, functioning as bone conduction headphones for music playback. This versatility means it can be used not only as a hearing aid but also as a personal audio device, serving multiple purposes. The bone conduction headphones offer up to approximately 10 hours of continuous playback on a single charge, which takes about 1 hour via a USB Type-C port, ensuring convenient daily use.
