The NHS ones are pretty basic and you need to change the batteries very

you i don't know why, as the tech is not new and in my view its another
thing like glasses frames disability aids etc, that cost twice as much
plus what you can get away with, using the small market excuse for the
profit made.

Your friends are wrong, the NHS ones are digital and are tailored to the
user and the batteries last for a week or two. The batteries are also
free.

Obviuisly the do far less audio processing than my private ones. Their
batteries last 5 days.
