Battery & Using your Hi-VOLT bracelet

Thank you for your interest in the Hi-VOLT® light. The battery, at present, cannot be replaced. However, battery life is approximately 45 hours of continuous use. Using the bracelet daily, for up to one hour/day, patients have found the bracelet lasts 7-8 weeks.

There is a 10% discount for each additional bracelet in one order and if 3 are purchased, the 4th is free. See Bracelet purchasing (without the CD) here.

In my practice, I invite my patients to use the Hi-VOLT® during daily voice practice. For feedback to be most useful, you don’t want to be reliant on it all of the time.

For patients who are enrolled in speech therapy, they may use the Hi-VOLT daily for the first few weeks, then begin to reduce use to every other day or just once/week.

For individuals who have completed speech therapy, I suggest using the Hi-VOLT at least weekly during speech practice and to re-calibrate the bracelet to a louder level of voice use.

In physical therapy, patients and therapists find it helpful when doing the BIG program, using it to Walk, Talk, and Stay LOUD!

  1. Mary

    Dr. Gail, thank you so much for your nice email. Consistency with practice is half the battle for any of us trying to master a skill. You are using the Hi-VOLT exactly as it was designed, as a feedback tool helping you maintain the loudness needed for strengthening and for people to understand you.29 years is a long time to live with PD but you give testimony to the fact that improvements in speech production are always possible with determination and consistent practice. Thank you again for your email, it means alot!

    I use the Hi-Volt bracelet and CD daily. The Hi-Volt keeps me honest. It’s got to flash in order for me to count the exercise as done. If I have trouble getting it to light, the CD is broken down into 8 tracks so I can go back to the beginning of the track and start over. My favorite track is #7 Tongue Twisters. When I finish with the Hi-volt I do some (or all) of Songbirds. I’ve had PD for 29 years, have been through 3 one-on-one speech classes, and this CD & Hi-Volt combination is the best thing I’ve found yet for maintaining and building on the gains in speech quality.

    We have had great success with the Hi-VOLT. We use the Songbirds voice aerobics program, as well as the Hi-VOLT PD program, alongside the Hi-VOLT bracelets for patients with PD, dysarthria, & poor respiratory endurance. Our patients also use the bracelets throughout the day in different therapy sessions – this is probably where we see the most benefit for the bracelet to provide feedback for our patients to know when they are loud enough for their therapists to hear what they are saying in a loud rehab gym- Aubrey
