that's what I have.

Did you notice how loud the water is coming out of a faucet?

Yes I did ... also how loud the potato chip bag is!!

The remote is very handy ... today the wind is about 15 mph out of the North having a wind issue and can't find a good channel to help with that.

How many channels do you have. I have 3 - regular, restaurant, and car. The wind noise also cannot be blocked out.

I was told I have 5 ... First one is regular, 2nd is dedicated Bluetooth, 3 restaurant, 4 car and 5 wind reduction ... When I use the remote I get a beep for Channel 1 ... I never get the 2 beeps it goes from 1 to 3 and then 4 beeps and then 5 beeps .. If I understand this right. If thats the case channel 5 did nothing to help with the wind and if thats wrong I gotta find out what is for!!

I go back Thursday I'll ask more about these channels.

Also ... How long did it take you guys to get used to the little bud in your ear ... I keep wanting to scratch my inner ear

blueriver, when you go back ask the Dr.for a sample of PROEAR by Miracell or whatever they have that is similar. It is for irritated or itching ears. It is a mixture of different types of oils, aloe vera, and a few other ingredients. I just put a light coating on the bud and it feels better. I don't use it too often but it did help in the beginning. Costco gave me a bottle.
Another thing I went back for is a bunch of filters (more freebies from Costco). If I sweat the filters clogged and the sounds start to dull. I now switch out the tiny filters with the batteries weekly. I also got a ultrasonic dryer to put the hearing aids in after use.

Thanks Don ... I'll ask for that and the extra filters. How do you like the dryer?

My audiologist said to dampen a q.tip with olive oil and swish it around in my ear.

I guess it is ok. It's a nice place to store them. It is pretty humid around here so I hope it extends their life.
