Receiver dimensions

Curious if any of our sleuths have found dimensions on hearing aid receivers? I’ve looked at Phonak pro site and hearing aid dimensions are given and technical specs are given for receivers, but not dimensions that I see. Basically curious. When I was trying out receiver sizes I noted that a Phonak P receiver was notably harder to get in my ear than a M receiver (yes with a dome placed over it) M was also more comfortable.

Uhh, I could measure them? But I can tell you straight up that a P receiver is much larger than an M receiver, maybe not quite double. M bigger than S. UP bigger than P.

the size is also determined by the strength of the receiver. If M and S are not good for you then you have no choice but P. I would like them to release a UP like the one for P where the dome can be used. I know it will be a bigger receiver, but I can do it because I have bigger ears. I would like to see them release a receiver with a volume of up to 120db

No need to measure. I was just curious if there was somewhere to look that I was missing. Definitely aware that P is much bigger than M. M not drastically bigger than S though. Remarkably (at least to me) narrow range of max output and gain from S to P. (111dB to 122 for max output from S to P and 47dB to 59dB max gain–this is for Phonak Paradise, but I think most are similar)

I know, but it’s easy to think of a loss of “only” 10dB different as being similar.
