Vintage PP3-size 9-volt batteries Size comparison of batteries: D, C, AA, AAA, AAAA, 9-volt (PP3) 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.
Production of some Ever Ready batteries (PP6, PP7 and PP9) continued in the UK until 1999 by Univercell Battery Company, near the old Dawley factory, using the original machinery. Univercell moved to Stafford Park 12 and was sold to the AceOn Group in 2012; AceOn continued to manufacture Ever Ready batteries for specialist applications.
Also called CR1/3N because it is 1 ⁄ 3 rd the height of an alkaline N cell, and a stack of three of them will form a battery with the same dimensions as an N cell, but with 9 V terminal voltage. Such 9 V batteries in a single package do exist but are rare and only usually found in specialist applications; they can be referred to as 3CR1/3N.
Batteries Plus (stylized as Batteries+, formerly Batteries Plus Bulbs stylized as Batteries+Bulbs) is an American retail chain of 600+ franchise outlets [2] founded in 1988 that sells and recycles [3] [4] [5] batteries of varying size and voltage that provide power to operate consumer electronics, watches, cell phones, digital cameras, automobiles and other devices that require DC power.

Alkaline batteries are manufactured in standard cylindrical forms interchangeable with zinc–carbon batteries, and in button forms. Several individual cells may be interconnected to form a true "battery", such as the 9-volt PP3-size battery. A cylindrical cell is contained in a drawn stainless steel can, which is the cathode connection.

Pop-up satellite tags range in length from about 125–215 mm (4.9–8.5 in) and weigh 36-108 grams in air. A tag must be small compared to the size of the animal, anywhere from 3-5% of the total fish weight, so that it does not interfere with normal behavior.
