Glad to accommodate you Rick, Randy. Luckily for me, my company medical plan pays 90% for aids. For about 4 months now I have had a pair of Lyric aids in my ears. These are really neat aids as they stay in your ear canals for months till the batteries die. When they die they just swap them out with new ones. Because of that you don't buy them, instead you have a "subscription" service. You pay by the year, about $4500, and they replace them as often as you need. They cannot be seen even if someone in looking right at your ears. It took me about a month and a half to really get used to them completely and now I hardly ever even think of them being there. You can adjust the volume or turn them off and on with a magnet. It is especially good for what I need right now as we are doing a life test on a spacecraft sensor at work 24/7 for about 3 months and I have to work the graveyard shift some days. After I get off my shift I have to sleep during the day but I can simply turn then completely off and they work like very effective ear plugs. Another benefit is that when I am wearing them my tinnitus is 95% gone. Wish they were not so expensive as I will likely retire in a couple of years and I'm not sure if I can still afford the yearly expense when I retire.
