Hello and welcome to the British Tinnitus Association forum. Do feel free to ask any questions, I hope that you find this a helpful and supportive place to help you manage your tinnitus.

Helpline 0800 018 0527 (Monday-Friday 9am-5pm) (outside the UK you can call [phone])

It is important to wear hearing protection if you are using power tools, whether they are cordless or not - it's the decibel level that's damaging, not the battery. You can find out more on our website, or give the helpline a ring if you have any questions.

Warmest wishes
