I'm wondering if any of the Cochlear Freedom BTE users have had a similar problem I've been encountering. Three times now the rubber sheathing that covers the wires linking the processor to the transmitter (leading from the coil to the bte itself) has split. Each time I've had to send the coil back to my audie to get replaced. It seems the sheathing is so thin and it can't stand up to more than 6 months of usage before it starts splitting both at the coil end, and at the end linking it to the processor, showing the wires inside.
Has anybody else encountered this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it short of sending them back to my audie every 6 months for a new one (which seems ridiculous - and my warranty wont last forever.)
