Description
This is a card of ten Duracell Plus Power AAA cells, the alkaline size that keeps most of the small electronics in a house running. Each cell gives a nominal 1.5 volts, and the format carries two codes you may find printed on your device or in its manual: LR03 is the international designation, and MN2400 is Duracell's own code, printed on the front of this pack. The pack states up to 100 per cent extra life with Power Boost Actives.
Alkaline is a single use chemistry, so these are cells you fit and then replace rather than put back on charge. AAA is the slimmer and shorter of the two common household sizes, and it will not stand in for AA: if a cell rattles in the compartment and the contacts barely touch, you have the wrong size. Ten cells suits a household keeping remote controls, wall clocks, wireless keyboards and mice, digital thermometers, kitchen scales, head torches and children's toys in service, and it suits an office or a rental property where a drawer of spares saves a trip out. The card is punched with two hanging holes, so it can go straight onto a hook.
One unit of this listing is the card of ten, and the minimum order is twelve, sold in multiples of twelve, so the smallest order brings 120 cells: worth knowing if you only wanted a pack for the kitchen drawer. Loose cells can short against keys or coins, so it is worth leaving spares in the card until they are needed. We stock Duracell in other sizes too, including AA, CR2032 and CR1620 lithium coin cells, LR44 button cells, hearing aid cells, and chargers supplied with AA and AAA rechargeables.

Frequently Asked
How many cells do I get, and what is the smallest order?
One unit of this listing is a card of ten AAA cells. The minimum order is twelve cards, sold in multiples of twelve, which comes to 120 cells.
My device asks for LR03 or MN2400. Is that the same as AAA?
Yes. LR03 is the international code for an alkaline AAA cell and MN2400 is Duracell's own code for the same size, so all three names describe this cell.
Can these be recharged?
No. Alkaline is a single use chemistry and these cells are meant to be replaced once flat. If you want cells you can top up, we list Duracell chargers supplied with AA and AAA rechargeables.
What voltage does each cell give?
Each AAA cell is 1.5 volts nominal, so a device holding two runs at 3 volts, three at 4.5 volts and four at 6 volts.
Will an AAA cell work where a device asks for AA?
No. AAA is both shorter and slimmer than AA, so it will not reach across the contacts and will sit loose in the compartment. Check the marking inside the battery door.
Is a shelf life printed on the pack?
The manufacturer does not state a shelf life for this pack, so no figure appears in the specification above and we quote none.
