Power banks, chargers & battery accessories One of the main benefits of using this kind of battery is that once they have been recharged in full, they are ready to be used again straight away. They are well suited to devices that drain power quite quickly. Rechargeable batteries - can be charged and discharged numerous times.They typically cost less than rechargeable options but aren't suited to high drain applications that require constant high power. Non-rechargeable batteries - Once the chemical reaction inside weakens, they will no longer be able to provide useful power, so they can only be used once.What types of batteries are available?īatteries come in a range of chemistries, shapes and sizes but typically all into two categories non-rechargeable (primary) batteries or rechargeable (secondary) batteries. We offer a comprehensive range of batteries in common sizes and specialist types including lr14 batteries, button batteries, hearing aid batteries, AA, AAA and D batteries from popular manufacturers Panasonic, Duracell, Yuasa, Saft, Energizer and our own brand RS PRO. The uses for batteries are incredibly varied, they can power small electrical devices such as watches, hearing aids, remote controls and handheld consoles, all the way to electric vehicles and beyond. All batteries comprise a positive (anode) terminal, negative (cathode) terminal and an electrolyte that is usually a gel or liquid. C cells tend to max out at 8,500 mAh, and you can filter our wide-selection of batteries by 'Capacity (mAh)'.Batteries are a source of energy that are primarily used to power portable electrical devices, they work by storing chemical energy and turning this into electrical energy once activated. Typically, batteries with larger capacities (mAh) have longer overall runtimes. We don't play favorites at Battery Junction, and runtimes are often dependent on your device's battery drain and operating temperature. Do NOT use DIY (do-it-yourself) tricks and guides to modify batteries, as it can have dangerous results. C and D cells have very different dimensions (C batteries are 26.2mm x 50mm, while D batteries are 22.3mm x 61.5mm). No, unless you own a trusted battery-adapter sleeve specifically designed for that purpose. The 'LR' in LR14 designates an alkaline chemistry. ANSI calls C-cells '14', and IEC standards call it 'R14'. Yes, they are the same size of battery with different names. For more information, check out our battery expiration guide! Are C cells and LR14/R14 batteries the same? We list the rated shelf life on all our product listings when available so you can make an informed choice when buying spares or bulk cells. C-cell batteries have a range of shelf lives between 3 and 25 years, wholly dependent on the battery's chemistry and storage conditions. Always check with your device's user manual to see if a battery voltage or chemistry is compatible. Yes, rechargeable C batteries use NiMH (nickel-metal hydride) or NiCd (nickel-cadmium) chemistries and have a 1.2V voltage compared to the typical 1.5V. Frequently Asked Questions Are there rechargeable C batteries?
