Product Description
The Songbird Disposable Hearing Aid is the world's first disposal hearing aid for those with mild to moderate hearing loss; especially for those who feel they don't need hearing help all the time. This hearing aid provides smooth amplification over a wide range of frequencies, while its discreet and comfortable behind-the-ear design minimizes the look of wearing a hearing aid. The Songbird Disposable Hearing Aid is an affordable and hassle-free way of receiving outstanding digital sound while not having to pay the high costs of traditional hearing aids and their maintenance. With a built-in battery that lasts up to 400 active hours of use, there is no hassle in needing to replace a battery. Once the battery runs out, simply discard and begin using a fresh hearing aid. Designed for individuals with mild to moderate hearing loss, the Songbird Disposable Hearing Aid is equipped with a volume control switch, making sounds louder or softer. While a doctor's referral is not needed, it is highly recommended to have a medical evaluation by a licensed physician before purchasing or using a hearing aid of any kind. The Songbird Disposable Hearing Aid contains 1 hearing aid per pack only.

Works well...battery not so much by S. C. Moreno (Cleveland, Oh) 3 Stars
August 17, 2009
I was very happy with the comfort and design of the product. A superior quality amplifier. Good for mild to moderate loss as advertised. However, the battery lasted me only two months. I don't know how many hours, but with my moderate use I expected it to last 4-6 months. Have since switched to non-disposables. If company offered "subscription" where replacements were half price or special Songbird replacement batteries could be ordered, I would have continued using them. In short, all claims seem to be true, except the battery life.

A great Hearing Aid for a great price but battery doesn't last by Captainbob (Atlanta) 5 Stars
April 22, 2009
I had a Miracle Ear Hearing Aid that was very expensive, that finally quit working. I started researching a replacement and heard a consumer radio show in Atlanta mention the Songbird disposable Hearing Aid. It lasts for about 400 hours and then you replace it with a new one. The cost is about $80 per aid, and depending on how much you use it everyday, this can work out to much less than buying an expensive aid which could cost between 2 and 5 thousand dollars. I am retired so my aid will probably last about 3 to 4 months which works out to about $300 per year. I don't have to change any batteries and don't have any repair problems since I am always going to have a hearing aid that is only a couple of months old at the most. This aid is comfortable to wear and after a hour or so, you forget you have it on, other than you realize that you can hear things you couldn't without it. The part that goes in the ear is very small, and people don't even realize that you have an aid on. It is a one size fits all, so no expensive fitting is required. The volume control is the on off switch so when I don't need it during the day, I can easily turn it off to conserve the battery life. I am a musician and I have even used it on the bandstand, and it doesn't distort the sound at all. It is a digital hearing aid which is the latest technology. With a little over 200 hours, the battery in mine went dead. I hardly used mine, and I think this makes the aid too costly for the average user. They should make a aid with a replaceable battery.

works! by KYGuy (Vincennes, IN USA) 3 Stars

The song bird works. Hearing very much improved. However, somewhat expensive . Equates to about $13.00 a week. (If it lasts for six weeks.) Sometimes it do and sometimes it don't . I would certainly recommend it as a trial device ;to see if the "behind the ear " type of hearing aid is for you.

Stretching, 20th Anniversary Revised Edition
by Bob Anderson (Author), Jean Anderson (Illustrator)

When Bob Anderson first published Stretching in 1980, the fitness movement was new to most Americans. The term aerobics had just been coined in 1968, and few people outside bodybuilding circles had heard of Arnold Schwarzenegger yet.

Now, fitness is such old hat that it's even had a backlash or two. Lots of the original ideas have been called into question, including the preeminence of aerobic exercise. But flexibility is bigger than ever; Pilates and yoga are two of the...
