Digital camera reviews of Clarity Professional PL100 Personal Listener Plus
Digital camera Review: Good for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
I was a little hesitant after poor review stating that the unit didn't work right out of the box, but I went ahead and gambled the $46. To my disappointment, the unit showed exactly the same symptoms described by the other reviewer. The thing would work for a couple of seconds and cut out. After trying non-rechargeable batteries and various combinations of buttons I happened to take a closer look at the battery cover. It's here where I found the problem... at the very top of the battery compartment there are the usual + and - symbols, so I put the batteries in so that the symbol matched the part of the battery that was outward facing. But looking at the cover the symbols were reversed.... what was meant was that the symbol on the device was actually the end of the battery meant to be buried int he device and the symbols on the inside of the little cover were the outward facing ends. Once I reversed the batteries and charged them, the unit worked as described.Digital camera Review: Guardedly delighted

I purchased this product with some trepidation because the other reviews I saw called it tinny and junk. But it was sold through enough reputable places and offered such a promising solution to my aged and cheap ("I'm not going to pay $5000 for a hearing aide; how many years do you think I have left?") aunt's hearing loss that I decided to give it a try. My aunt is virtually deaf, but this product could be turned so loud that she asked me to turn it down. For the first time in two years I could carry on a normal-voice-level conversation; I didn't have to scream in her ear. And her perception of what I said was 100% accurate as opposed to about 50% when I was screaming.
The product does not strike me as very durable, but it is not junk either. So far -- a few weeks of irregular use -- it has been 100% reliable.
Digital camera Review: Hearing Amplifier
Summary: 3 Stars
I got this as a gift for my father. No hearing amplifier works great, but it helps some. I would say the product is average.Digital camera Review: It works as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
I have worn a hearing aid since age 12 (47 now) and I am the Medical Director for a Hospice. At our weekly team meeting I just cannot hear what is being said at the other end of the 5 tables that are put together. This device has allowed me to enjoy the meetings. May actually allow me to keep this job. If only they could connect it to the headphone via bluetooth so as not to be tethered to the cord. But in all fairness to the company that makes this device, they do ship it with an extension cord to the earpiece so I am really not complaining.Digital camera Review: Not for a long-term Hearing Aid
Summary: 2 Stars
Do NOT use this as a long-term Hearing Aid!! The batteries only last for 2 or 3 hours before dying and need to be replaced!!
