Ear Extender
* Forget batteries and wires, hear a crisp new sound

Who says that the humble, hand-crafted Art of Chindogu can’t compete with the mass-produced technological wonders being churned out by those electronic manufacturing giants? The Ear Extender is a sturdily built, water-resistant, battery-free hearing aid that’s virtually fool-proof and guaranteed to work whatever the circumstances. No transistors to fiddle with, no cells to charge, and you’ll never have to worry about losing these down the drain!

MsDrPepper (10:25:15) :

I’d like one, only with smaller copper bowls, matches my complexion better!! Might work better then stupid hearing aids that audiologist sold me after product life was over, so they won’t reprogram them as my hearing got worse.
