Hearing aid average draw
Hearing aid average draw is the typical electrical power consumed by a hearing aid during normal operation.
How big is it?
1 mW of power
Average electrical draw · representative
Typical recorded range: 100 µW to 10 mW.
A little perspective
Single-mode laser pointer optical output is about 5 times larger on this measurement.
Single-mode laser pointer optical output: 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.
Measurements, assumptions & sources +
Hearing aid average draw
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
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.
US FDA — Laser products and instruments
The marked rated continuous optical output is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

Why we use 1 mW
For comparison, this page uses average electrical draw. This is labelled representative; the central value is useful for comparison, while real values or measurement solutions can vary. The recorded range is 100 µW to 10 mW.
