3 AQUA+ FOR KANSO ™ USER GUIDE
Battery use with Aqua+
For everyday use, most Kanso Sound Processor users will
achieve at least 16 hours battery life with zinc air batteries.
But you cannot use zinc air batteries with Aqua+ as they need
air and there is insufficient air inside Aqua+ when it’s sealed.
You must use other disposable batteries for your Kanso
Sound Processor to work inside Aqua+. You can use
alkaline, nickel metal hydride or silver oxide* batteries.
