Question

What is the difference between Rayovac Ultra and Advanced hearing aid batteries?

Answer

Ultra was last year's design and out previous technology. Advanced is this year's new product and out most advanced technology. Ultra was the name we used for the designation of our last generation of products so we wanted to really set apart this new and improved generation of batteries. To do so we named the new line of hearing aid batteries Advanced.
