Bone-conductor hearing aids!!!

[BigPapaDean]

I have been trying for years to find something that really helps my hearing. I grew up with ear infections all the time. There were times when I couldn't go swimming with my friends because of it. Here I am, 71 years old, and still can't carry on a conversation with most people because I am extremely hard of hearing. I found some new ones they tell me are fairly new on the market, but when I get them, the Bluetooth won't work for any more than a foot from my pc. I want to do everything with them, but I need the Bluetooth to watch TV and to play my games, and just about everything else you might think of. These have a 10-12-hour playing time, which is perfect for me. I have questions like, can I extend the Bluetooth to about 12 feet or so? And I can't figure out how to get them to work when I go out without Bluetooth. I am not getting any satisfaction from the customer service. They want me to watch videos with them in action, but not show me how to use the damned things. You probably have figured out I am a little upset with them! Any help would be so much appreciated more than you know. Thank you in advance for your help!
