Duracell®, Boston, MA, introduces the Activair® with EasyTab™ batteries. According to the company, the batteries use three innovations to enhance the lifestyle of patients: the patented longer tab design, designed to make the batteries easier to see, hold, and insert into a hearing aid; the “pillbox” package, designed to enable patients to easily store, transport and remove batteries; and newly developed cell construction, which reportedly provides up to 30% longer life than previous Activair batteries. The batteries will be available in all sizes. (800) 551-2355; www.duracell.com
