MAXELL - ALKALINE BATTERY AA LR6 PACK*32 PCS

The AA battery is the most used battery in the world and is found in hundreds of thousands of devices. IEC codes for AA batteries include the popular LR6 for alkaline AA batteries and HR6 for rechargeable NiMH batteries. The normal voltage of these batteries is 1.5 V, while rechargeable batteries typically provide 1.2 V. New AA lithium batteries offer much higher capacity for a slightly higher price. Introduced in 1907, the AA battery size was standardized by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1947, but had been used in flashlights and electrical novelties for some time before being officially standardized. ANSI and IEC battery nomenclature gives several designations for cells of this size, depending on the cell's characteristics and chemistry. Each AA battery is 51 mm long and 14 mm in diameter. The formats in which the AA battery is available are: alkaline batteries, saline batteries, long-life lithium batteries and rechargeable batteries of different capacities. AA alkaline batteries have a shelf life of approximately 6 years, while AA lithium equivalents last up to 9 years before use. AA rechargeable batteries are now available in NiMH with capacities up to 2850 mAh and are also available in the new "pre-charged" technology that allows you to use them straight from the package.
