I've had my aids for 20 years and always went to the hospital for this, but I recently changed from part to full helix earpiece and have struggled to get used to it, I think because the tube was cut too short. So I thought I'd have a go myself and was amazed at how easy it was. Although I've seen it done loads of times I was glad of the video as a guide. Many thanks.

Thank you for a very helpful video , which potentially should make us more able to manage our aids. I have 2 suggestions which I hope could help a future updated video. Firstly, it didn't show the process for the very last step (attaching the tube to the aid) and I was unable to do this part so eventually I had to go back to the hospital for help. Secondly it would be very useful to show the procedure with both right and left ears as everything looks so different. Hope you can do an update, it has great potential for thousands of people.

Thank you so much I’m 11 and always got confused on this

Tubes honestly do go solid because it is connected to the air. It happens around perhaps every 3 months depending how much it is in the air. This happens to me at the north Devon district hospital around every 4 months depending how solid tubes are. My hearing loss is around 65%. This is moderate hearing loss. 😊

Can't see which way round on this video. Need to show close up still pictures because I've used several tubes now and the tube is always in the wrong way round.

I just got my earring aid and I will never be able to do this. I'll have to go to the hospital. I don't want to break it.
