Eveready EP675E Mercury Hearing Aid Battery

The Eveready EP675E 1.4 volt mercury battery was manufactured by the Union Carbide Corp of Cleveland, Ohio for behind-the-ear and eyeglass hearing aids from the mid 1950s until mercury batteries were phased out in the USA in 1996 and were replaced by zinc-air batteries which had been available for some years at that point.

This battery weighed around 2 g and measured 0.455" in diameter by 0.210" high.
