Mkgilmour Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hey, everyone! I am SSD, implanted 8/24, activated 9/2, and going on an outdoor climbing trip in a few weeks. I am wondering how the Sonnet 2 will be when outside all day in the hot sun. I will definitely be sweating a lot. I have an earmold which keeps it in place while I exercise and while I'm at my physical intense job. I haven't had any problems with it falling off. But I'm wondering if my head is drenched in sweat while wearing a helmet all day, if it's going to be a problem. Has anyone noticed an issue with the coil sliding off because of sweat, or is the magnet strong enough? Would appreciate your experiences!

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted October 2, 2021 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 @Mkgilmour congratulations on your CI! I do not notice my coil/magnet shifting at all due to sweat but I am not engaged in as rigorous an activity as you describe. Have you thought of wearing a skull cap or nammucap under your helmet? I use nammucaps at the beach and when I am near water. I find them very comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkgilmour Posted October 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 @Mary Beth Thanks! Maybe this is a stupid question, but do you put the cap over or under the coil? Is the magnet strong enough to stick with a thin layer under it? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
