Loud Ear 110dB Gain Personal Amplifier

I bought this for a friend of mine who is currently in a convalescent facility. Hearing aids were hurting his ears, and I don’t really think was getting the job run done right. Plus all the battery exchange was a hassle. When he was admitted to the hospital the Laud ear device was used by several of the staff. He heard great, it’s very lightweight easy to insert, and pretty much does exactly what it supposed to do. One downside, of course the loud ear magnifies everything. If you are in a noisy environment, such as a dining hall, it’s pretty difficult to hear anything. That being said, one on one, in a quiet room, visiting with an elderly person, the Loud ear works quite well. I would definitely buy one again if needed.

It works as advertised.

I am genuinely surprised and disappointed that the seller or more specifically, Amazon, would offer a product such as this. Where is the Quality Control? I wanted something primarily to enhance my TV listening to avoid having to turn the TV up so loud and even "upgraded" to the higher priced item (compared to the many less expensive devices offered) thinking I would get good results. Instead I found that upon turning it on and trying to use it, there was so much background noise that it drowned out any semblance of hearing the TV whether the TV volume was high or turned down to a normal range. I tried the earbud in both ears, I adjusted it up and down and positioned the unit both holding it and then laying it as a stand alone while attempting to reach a point of actually hearing the TV, but nothing altered the wind-like static noise. It sounds like being in a wind tunnel or someone blowing into the microphone. I am stupefied at the price for something that doesn't work and angry at myself for believing the product description! I could not hear the TV, let alone it enhancing the listening experience! I am returning it immediately for a refund and I do not recommend this product, as I found it to be worthless. Were it not for the cost, I would have thrown it in the trash and not even bothered with returning it.

This is my second purchase of this device and, in general I like it very much. It has helps me avoid a $699 co-pay and lets me hear people (when I want to). One additional quibble -- in addition to the suboptimal earpiece -- is the space in the battery compartment. The AAA cells that come with it fit quite well. However, the first time I tried to replace the AAA cells (with the Amazon "choice" type), I couldn't get te little cover to go back. These AAA cells are just a tiny bit too chubby. Many other brands of AAA are skinnier -- especially the cheaper "kock off" brands. A set of batteries lasts a nice long time, but it is well to check your replacement AAA cells in advance so as not to be frustrated (as I was) trying to jam the little cover back.

I would not by these again to much crackling sounds

Absolutely super! The recipient has very limited hearing and has found it extremely useful in conversation. A terrific buy at an extremely attractive price. Well Done! Thank you!

The first time we used, it was way too loud for his “good” ear. Tried in ear with 75% hearing lost, and it worked great on low. He would take out ear bud and put it back in after a couple minutes. When he turned it back on, it wouldn’t work at all. Later, it would work. Then, it wouldn’t work. He got very frustrated with it working less than half of the time.
