Hearing Aid Batteries

Eveready No. E136 Hearing Aid Battery

This Eveready E136 mercury battery had a rather unusual voltage, namely 8.4 volts. Thus it was comprised of 6 1.4 volt cells.

It was made by the Union Carbide corp around 1970 or so for use in "transistor and electronic applications". This battery was used to power an auditory trainer.

It weighed 2.6 oz., and measured 3 15/16" tall by ⅝" in diameter.
