One thing that comes to mind that you may not have considered is that 
since Bluetooth has a range of 40-50 feet, once you get this working, 
you might find that your hearing aids unintentionally pair with the TV 
whenever they're within range.  Suppose you're in your garage having a 
conversation with a neighbor and your wife turns on the TV.  Are your 
hearing aids going to automatically pair with the TV and drown out what 
your neighbor is saying?

How long are the batteries expected to last when Bluetooth is enabled 
(even if not paired)?
