A modular hearing aid (10) to fit in the user's ear, having a shell (12), faceplate (14) fixed to the shell (12), and an electronic module (20) removably snapped into the faceplate (14). The module (20) includes an open-topped battery compartment (34) which is closed by a lid (16) hinged to the faceplate (14) rather than the module. This eliminates a bulky hinge on the module (20) and allows a smaller snap fastener between the module and faceplate. The volume control (26) on the module (20) projects through an opening in the closed lid. |
