AAAA battery

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The AAAA battery (usually read as quadruple-A) is 42.5 mm long and 8.3 mm in diameter, weighing around 6.5 grams. The output of alkaline batteries in this size is 1.5 Volts, 625 mA·h.

This battery is also classified as LR8D425 (IEC) and 25A (ANSI/NEDA). The battery is also known by its Duracell type number MN2500 or MX2500 and Energizer type number E96.

This battery size is most often used in devices requiring small batteries such as laser pointers, LED penlights, powered computer styli, glucose meters, and small headphone amplifiers. These batteries are not as popular as AAA or AA type batteries, and can be quite hard to find. A typical 9 volt battery consists of a bundle of six AAAA cells inside, connected together by welded tabs.^[1]^[2]

The AAAA is also available in a PCB Tagged version, 8.4mm x 66mm, weighing 10.5g. These tagged AAAA batteries are NiMH rechargeable as such will charge from the PCB they are soldered onto.
