The D cell, or LR20, is the workhorse behind big torches, camping lanterns, portable radios and larger toys that need plenty of runtime. Our D range covers dependable alkaline and rechargeable NiMH in the pack sizes that suit both the home drawer and the workshop shelf. Choose alkaline for standby and rechargeable for daily duty.

What D batteries power

The D cell is the largest of the common cylindrical sizes and holds the most energy, so it runs high-capacity devices for a long time. You will find it in large torches and camping lanterns, portable radios and boomboxes, and sizeable toys. Its long runtime is exactly why standby and emergency kit often relies on it.

Alkaline and rechargeable options

Alkaline D cells store for years and are the practical pick for emergency lighting and occasional use. Rechargeable NiMH D cells reward devices in regular use, cutting cost and waste over many cycles. The two are interchangeable in almost any device built for a D size.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a D battery used for?
D cells power large torches and lanterns, portable radios and speakers, and bigger toys and equipment where long runtime matters most.

Is LR20 the same as a D battery?
Yes. LR20 is the code for the standard alkaline D cell, with R20 and the rechargeable HR20 describing the same size.

Why are D batteries used in emergency kit?
Their high capacity gives long runtime from a single set, which suits torches and radios that must work reliably when needed after long storage.

Do you stock D batteries in larger packs?
Yes. We carry small packs for occasional replacement and larger multipacks that are more economical where several devices take a D.
