New Hearing Loss Products on Display at HLAA2017:
ListenTALK
ListenTALK is a two-way mobile communication system offering a personalized solution in environments where hearing is difficult, whether it’s at home, work, or school. ListenTALK is more than a transceiver, it’s an all-in-one device that facilitates communication and collaboration among two or more people in any setting with coverage up to 100 meters (328 feet) indoors and up to 200 meters (656 feet) outdoors. ListenTALK transceivers take less than a second to set up and pair.
My Alert
Designed for affordability and reliability, MyAlert from Silent Call is reportedly one of the most economical alerting systems available for the deaf and hard of hearing. MyAlert alerts the deaf and hard-of-hearing to important household sounds including the telephone or video phone, smartphone, doorbell, baby cries, kitchen timers, and opened doors and windows. It alerts with flashing lights, vibration, and loud sound. The system uses unique Multi-Code technology, which means no false flashing from a neighbor’s system. Featuring 24/7 safe system supervision and class-leading range, MyAlert notifies users if any part of the system is not working. MyAlert includes a Digital Radio Frequency (DR-F) remote receiver that can be paired with up to four battery-powered transmitters (sold separately) and an optional bed shaker. A body worn wireless multi-function receiver is available. Each component is sold separately to minimize cost and allow users to customize their system.
HC-TV95RF Serene TV system
This new wireless radio frequency TV Listening System from Serene Innovations is one of the most economical and comfortable TV listening systems for the hard of hearing on the market. The lightweight receiver rests naturally on your collar and is comfortable to wear, even after hours of extended wear. You don’t have to worry about heavy headsets pulling on your ears like with other systems. It has a 100-foot range and transmits sounds though walls and ceilings.
Panasonic Phones
The latest Panasonic amplified phones will be on display, including models HC-KXTGM450S, HC-KXTGM420W, and HC-KXTGM430B.
