A little perspective
Hearing aid average draw vs Single-mode laser pointer optical output: power comparison
The optical output of a single-mode laser pointer is about 5 times the average electrical draw of a hearing aid.
ENERGY EACH SECOND
Hearing aid average draw is the typical electrical power consumed by a hearing aid during normal operation.
Single-mode laser pointer optical output is the continuous visible light power emitted by a standard handheld laser pointer operating in a single spatial mode.

Hearing aid average draw
Average electrical draw: 1 mW; representative; range 100 µW–10 mW.
A representative 1 mW average electrical draw for a hearing aid. Radio use, signal processing, output level, battery voltage and duty cycle can shift consumption across the stated range.
Defined examples — our methodology
The marked average electrical draw is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
Single-mode laser pointer optical output
Rated continuous optical output: 5 mW; defined upper reference; range 1 mW–5 mW.
A defined 5 mW visible laser pointer output. The 0.3 J comparison is power multiplied by 60 seconds; beam class, wavelength and actual output matter.
