GPA76 Alkaline Hearing Aid Battery

This No. GPA76 1˝ volt alkaline hearing aid battery was made by an unknown manufacturer, probably in the 1970s. Alkaline batteries were not all that popular, as most were mercury batteries at this time.

The No. GPA76 alkaline battery measured 0.455" in diameter by 0.215" thick and weighed 0.05 oz. (1.5 g).

This battery is basically the same size as a 675 battery.
