I have to relate this story about storing your aids. I got my first set of aids 11 years ago, they were in the ear type. About a week after getting them I went on a organized bike ride. I realized pretty quick I could not wear them as the wind noise was really bad. So…I put them in my jersey pocket. ( I ride a recumbent so my pockets are on the front). About an hour later the temp warmed up and I needed to remove my long sleeve undershirt. I stopped at a rest stop, removed my jersey, then removed my long sleeve top and put the jersey back on. About 2 miles down the road I thought about the aids and sure enough, they were not in the pocket. I backtracked and started looking. All I found were very small pieces, no bigger than the #10 battery. They had been run over, or stepped on, either way, totally destroyed. Lesson learned the hard way.
I do have a nice electric dryer my aids go into every night. It also goes on any trips I take.
Note: Do not leave your aids in your pocket and wash your cloths and dry them. (Dont ask how I know. LOL) They do still work, kinda, main reason I am getting new Octigon Pro’s as I dont want to spend any more money getting the Resounds repaired.
