Battery Charger

Travel Charger+1

This is a compact, portable charger designed for Rexton Reach R-Li T, Bicore C R-Li, and C R-Li T hearing aids. It fits in your pocket and holds enough power for three full charges, so you don’t need to find an outlet while you're out. It fully charges the hearing aids in four hours, but if you're in a hurry, a 30-minute charge gives you five hours of use. It also makes inserting and removing the hearing aids easy and automatically turns them on and off when placed in or taken out of the charger. It uses a USB-C power adapter.

App

The Rexton app is basically a remote control for your hearing aids that runs on your phone. It lets you tweak volume, change listening settings, and even fine-tune sound balance. You can also get real-time help from either your audiologist or an AI assistant called Rexton Assist. If your hearing aids support it, you can adjust directional hearing to focus on specific sounds, stream audio from accessories like a TV transmitter, and even get remote adjustments via TeleCare. The app works with both iPhone and Android, and setup involves a simple Bluetooth pairing process.

DirectionalityDirectionalityDepending on the types and number of microphones a hearing aid has, the hearing aid may be able to boost sounds from specific directions (by reducing sounds from other directions). This can be helpful to focus on a speaker directly in front of the hearing aid user, as well as to give the user information about where different sounds are coming from.

My Voice 2.0My Voice 2.0My Voice 2.0 is a hearing aid feature that identifies when the wearer is speaking by analyzing how sound reaches the hearing aids' microphones based on head shape and microphone placement. When the wearer speaks, the hearing aids adjust their processing specifically for the user's voice, making it sound more natural and less amplified.
