2. Alkaline battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_battery

   An alkaline battery (IEC code: L) is a type of primary battery where the electrolyte (most commonly potassium hydroxide) has a pH value above 7. Typically these batteries derive energy from the reaction between zinc metal and manganese dioxide. Compared with zinc–carbon batteries of the Leclanché cell or zinc chloride types, alkaline ...

3. Nine-volt battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine-volt_battery

   Nine-volt battery. The nine-volt battery, or 9-volt battery, is an electric battery that supplies a nominal voltage of 9 volts. Actual voltage measures 7.2 to 9.6 volts, depending on battery chemistry. Batteries of various sizes and capacities are manufactured; a very common size is known as PP3, introduced for early transistor radios.

4. List of battery sizes - Wikipedia

   Alkaline carbon‑zinc (3 cells): 4.5: Two 6–7 mm wide metal strips +: shorter strip −: longer strip: H: 67 L: 62 W: 22 This battery, introduced in 1901, was very common in continental Europe until the 1970s. It usually contains three B cells in series. In Switzerland as of 2008, 4.5-volt batteries account for only 1% of primary battery ...

5. AA battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AA_battery

   An AA battery is composed of a single electrochemical cell that may be either a primary battery (disposable) or a rechargeable battery. Several different chemistries are used in their construction. The exact terminal voltage, capacity and practical discharge rates depend on cell chemistry; however, devices designed for AA cells will usually ...

6. Comparison of commercial battery types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_commercial...

   Under certain conditions, some battery chemistries are at risk of thermal runaway, leading to cell rupture or combustion.As thermal runaway is determined not only by cell chemistry but also cell size, cell design and charge, only the worst-case values are reflected here.

7. AAA battery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AAA_battery

   The AAA battery (or triple-A battery) is a standard size of dry cell battery. One or more AAA batteries are commonly used in low-drain portable electronic devices. A zinc–carbon battery in this size is designated by IEC as R03, by ANSI C18.1 as 24, by old JIS standard as UM-4, and by other manufacturer and national standard designations that ...
