Duracell Plus Power AAA LR03 1.5V Alkaline Batteries - 4 Pack

The Duracell Plus Power AAA LR03 is a 1.5V alkaline battery supplied in a 4-pack, designed for everyday household electronics including remote controls, wireless keyboards, computer mice, clocks, torches and children's toys. The alkaline cell composition delivers consistent voltage output across the battery's discharge cycle, maintaining reliable device operation until the cell is depleted.

Each battery uses Duracell's nylon top closure design, which creates a mechanical seal between the positive terminal and the cell casing to reduce the risk of electrolyte leakage during storage and use. The advanced energy retention chemistry allows the batteries to hold their charge for up to 5 years when stored at room temperature, making them suitable for emergency torch supplies, seasonal devices and backup stock.

The packaging uses 98% recycled paper-based materials as part of Duracell's environmental programme, reducing single-use plastics in battery retail packaging. The AAA size (also designated LR03 under IEC naming and MN2400 under some industrial codes) measures 44.5mm length by 10.5mm diameter and fits standard AAA battery compartments in UK and international devices.

What devices are these batteries suitable for?

AAA alkaline batteries power most low-to-medium drain household electronics including TV remotes, wireless mice and keyboards, wall clocks, digital thermometers, torches and battery-operated toys. They are not recommended for high-drain devices like digital cameras or gaming controllers with haptic feedback, which benefit from AA cells or rechargeable batteries.

How long do these batteries last in storage?

Duracell's energy retention technology allows these batteries to hold their charge for up to 5 years when stored at room temperature in their original packaging. Store them in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and avoid refrigeration, which can cause condensation inside the cell.

Are these batteries rechargeable?

No. These are single-use alkaline batteries and cannot be recharged. Attempting to recharge alkaline cells can cause leakage, overheating or rupture. For rechargeable options, see Niori's range of NiMH AAA rechargeable batteries.

How should used batteries be disposed of?

Spent alkaline batteries should be recycled through household battery recycling bins available at most UK supermarkets, council recycling centres and some retailers. Do not dispose of batteries in general household waste, as they contain metals that can be recovered and reused.
