LR44 button cell Battery

Have you ever wondered what kind of battery you need for most types of small, handheld electronic devices? Usually, these small devices are much too tiny for even AAA batteries. So, when this is the case, what type of battery do you use? Well, the answer is usually an LR44 battery. 

The LR44 battery is a very common name for the standard 1.5 volt button cell alkaline battery. This type of battery sees many different kinds of uses, from small LED flashlights, to laser pointers, to thermometers, and even to clocks. This battery has a variant cousin called the SR44, which is a silver oxide battery. The two are sometimes considered the same type of battery, but the LR44 battery has a lower energy density. This is usually considered a quality difference, though they are actually, in fact, two very different kinds of batteries.  You can buy an LR44 battery from almost any retailer that sells batteries of any kind, but you can find them especially in electronics stores. You can also buy them from about any store or company that sells electronic gear that uses them.
