I’ve posted this annoying occurance in a few other threads, but having gotten no input, I thought I’d dedicate a new thread to the topic.
Maybe I’m the only one experiencing this … but BOTH pairs of my Phonak Lumity Life aids, while seated inside their respective charging bases, have on occasion (maybe every other month?) started to SCREEEEEECH feedback at FULL throttle inside that box. Unfortunately, I’m usually not even aware of this happening cuz I’ve got the aids out and charging up for the night. That’s when hubs alerts me ASAP to the problem.
But the other day, I walked into the bedroom and WOW. With my 2nd pair of aids IN, I could hear the other pair screaming like they wanted to bust out of jail. I have three questions here:
- Anyone else ever experience this with rechargeable aids?
- Any idea why my aids would be on FULL THROTTLE while charging up?
- Will the aids actually DIE on me if they are running FULL THROTTLE like that now and then? I ask, cuz both pairs have had a receiver/speaker die on them at the 4-month mark. Could this feedback issue be causing them to burn out?
I have to charge these aids up every night. But it alarms me that they occasionally go into FULL THROTTLE feedback inside that charger. I shut the lid when they’re in there cuz I thought that triggered the charging, but maybe if I left it open it wouldn’t happen?
Any insights here MOST welcome. Any audis on the board, if you are so inclined to ask your Phonak rep, I’d be obliged.
