Alkaline battery AAA 1.5 V

Compact 1.5 V AAA alkaline battery for small devices

The AAA alkaline battery (LBAAA) is a 1.5-volt battery in the AAA size, smaller and thinner than the AA. This compact format powers a host of small devices where space is limited: remote controls, wireless mice and keyboards, small flashlights, game controllers, calculators and miniature electronics. Despite its reduced size, the AAA alkaline battery delivers a stable voltage and good runtime, making it an essential reserve size at home and in the office.

Alkaline technology ensures a gradual discharge and a long shelf life: your spare batteries stay ready to use for a long time. Since devices often use several AAA batteries at once, it is handy to keep a small stock to replace them all together at the right time.

Benefits of the AAA alkaline battery

Beyond its compactness, the AAA battery combines performance and convenience for small devices.

Compact size for miniature devices

Its small size powers devices where an AA battery does not fit, while keeping the standard 1.5-volt output.

Long life and stable voltage

Alkaline chemistry offers good energy density and a steady discharge, extending the runtime of small everyday devices.

Worksites and sectors where this battery is required

The AAA alkaline battery is used everywhere small devices must stay powered:

• Homes and offices for remotes, mice, keyboards and calculators.
• Stores, schools and institutions for small electronic equipment.
• Workshops and worksites for small flashlights and compact instruments.
• Leisure and gaming for controllers, toys and handheld devices.
• Any repair kit that should hold spare AAA batteries.

Use and storage of the AAA alkaline battery

Insert the battery according to the polarity (+ and −) shown in the device's compartment, and replace all the batteries in a device at the same time rather than mixing a new and a used cell. Store spare batteries in a dry, temperate place, away from metal objects. Remove the batteries from a device unused for a long period to avoid any risk of leakage, and recycle used batteries through local programs.

FAQ about the AAA alkaline battery

What is the difference between an AAA and an AA battery?

Both provide 1.5 volts, but the AAA is smaller and thinner. The choice depends on your device's compartment; the sizes are not interchangeable.

Can I mix a new and a used battery?

No, replace all the batteries in a device at the same time to avoid uneven discharge and a risk of leakage.

How can I extend battery life?

Store them dry and cool, and remove them from a device that will be unused for a long period.
