Frequently asked questions
Common questions about DURACELL from 3G Electric.
What is the shelf life of DURACELL lithium coin cells like the DL2450BPK?
DURACELL lithium coin cells, including the DL2450BPK (2450 size, 600 mAh, 3V DC), have a typical shelf life of up to 10 years when stored in a cool, dry environment at temperatures between 20°C and 25°C. This makes them suitable for long-term applications such as memory backup, real-time clocks, and remote sensors where battery replacement is infrequent. Actual shelf life may vary depending on storage conditions and load current.
Can DURACELL rechargeable AA batteries (DX1500R4) be used in high-drain devices?
Yes, the DURACELL DX1500R4 is a nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) AA battery rated at 1.2V DC and 4-pack configuration. NiMH chemistry is well-suited for high-drain devices such as digital cameras, portable radios, and motorized tools because it delivers consistent current output and can be recharged hundreds of times. However, ensure the device is designed for 1.2V nominal voltage, as some equipment may require 1.5V alkaline cells for proper operation.
What is the difference between DURACELL CR2 (DLCR2) and 123 (DL123ABPK) batteries?
The DURACELL DLCR2 is a CR2-size lithium battery with a capacity of 1,000 mAh and 3V DC output, while the DL123ABPK is a 123-size lithium battery with a capacity of 1,550 mAh and 3V DC output. Both use lithium chemistry and are non-rechargeable. The CR2 is shorter and wider (27 mm length, 15.6 mm diameter) compared to the 123 (34.5 mm length, 17 mm diameter). They are not interchangeable; always check the device's battery size specification.
Are DURACELL 6V lantern batteries (MN908) suitable for outdoor emergency lighting?
Yes, the DURACELL MN908 is a 6V alkaline lantern battery with a capacity of 13 Ah and spring terminals. It is commonly used in portable lanterns, emergency beacons, and field equipment that require a stable 6V DC supply. The alkaline chemistry provides reliable performance in temperatures from -20°C to 54°C, making it suitable for outdoor use. Ensure the device's terminal type matches the spring configuration.
What is the voltage and capacity of the DURACELL 21/23 battery (MN21)?
The DURACELL MN21 is a 21/23-size alkaline battery with a nominal voltage of 12V DC and a capacity of 60 mAh. It is typically used in small electronic devices such as key fobs, remote controls, and security sensors. The 2-pack (SKU 489D85) provides two units for replacement or backup. Due to its high voltage in a compact form factor, it is not interchangeable with standard 9V batteries.
