MallaRuth 28 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 @Mary Beth Thanks, this is super useful. It's good to know you get so much in one kit! I have bought two designs, one for each processor (it's painful when I get them mixed up - do you get that?) so all the options should keep me going for a while. I never use my FM covers and it looks fairly straightforward to trim one down. I will post pics when mine arrive! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mary Beth 2,232 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 @MallaRuth My internals (right is Concerto and left is Synchrony) will only work with processors programmed for them specifically so if I put my left processor on my right side, I don’t hear anything. I am not sure when that safety measure began. I know older units did not have that in place. But to make life easier, I have tiny sticker dots on the inside of my left and right processors. Red for right. Blue for left. Looking forward to seeing your SkinIt designs! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MallaRuth 28 Report post Posted November 1, 2018 @Mary Beth good point, I don't know what I have inside. I'll add it to my list of things you've inspired me to ask at my next appointment! My 'old' processor (R) works on my 'newer' implant (L), but not in reverse. My old processor sounds extremely loud on my more recent implant, I think because it's so dominant and must be turned up louder, so it's a painful mistake to make! I have coloured wire twists now to remind me. 1 Mary Beth reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
