During the past month, I’ve had an intermittent problem charging – about one day in ~10.
Typically, at night I turn off the aids with the buttons and then “bake” them in a dryer and put them in the charger but do not plug it in. In the morning, I plug in the charger and the aids are ready in ~40 minutes.
But occasionally, including today it fails. Today, they started flashing yellow as usual and after ~30 min. flashed green. But they were still flashing green 45 min. later. So I unplugged the charger, waited ~ a minute, plugged-back in and they were flashing yellow again. So I took them out and checked with the Easy Line app, which showed ~40% charge, which is about what I expect at the end of the day, not after >60 minutes of charging.
So I rubbed the contacts against my pants to clean them, put them back in the charger which flashed yellow again and a few minutes later, Easy Line showed ~44% charge. Then after several more minutes ~50% and later ~70%. This indicates the charger is now working. But it’s been over 2 1/2 hours and my aids are not yet ready.
What to do? I am not sure that it was my rubbing the contacts that fixed the problem today. Other times, just unplugging/re-plugging the charger worked. If I take the system back to Costco, chances are they will work perfectly.
