Hearing Aid Batteries

Eveready 504E Hearing Aid "B" Battery

This Eveready 15 volt Mini-Max hearing aid "B" battery was used mainly in the larger 1-piece vacuum tube hearing aids in the late 1940s and early 1950s.

Pictures of both an earlier version and a later version are shown here. Pictured at the right is the later version from the early 1950s.

It weighed 0.3 oz. (9 g), and measured 1 3/8" by 5/8" by 5/8" (3.4 x 1.5 x 1.5 cm).
