This small desktop charger addresses basic needs when it comes to providing power to the hearing aids. 2 LEDs indicate the charging status (one per hearing aid). The Pure Charger can be plugged into the mains via USB to a power adapter.

Pure Portable Charger+1

This charger offers comfort and charging on the go. Its power bank allows for 3 full charges of a pair of hearing aids.

CROS System

Reach CROS R-Li T BC

A rechargeable CROS transmitter designed to pair with Reach R Plus for people whose hearing in one ear cannot benefit from a conventional hearing aid. Worn on that side, it picks up sound and sends it wirelessly to the hearing aid on the better-hearing ear. In a BiCROS fitting, that hearing aid also amplifies sound to address hearing loss in the better ear.

Remote Control

Smart Key

Smart Key is a pocket-sized remote with dedicated buttons for changing volume and listening programs without using a smartphone. A keyring keeps it handy, and a lock switch prevents accidental button presses in a pocket or bag. Rexton advises against pairing Smart Key and the Rexton App to the same hearing aids, because the app can erase the remote pairing.
