Description
These are Energizer AAAA alkaline cells, supplied two to a blister pack. AAAA is one of the smaller cylindrical sizes in common use: narrower and shorter than the AAA most people keep in a kitchen drawer, and not interchangeable with it. Each cell gives 1.5V, as the pack states, and the chemistry is alkaline, so these are single use rather than rechargeable.
The AAAA size tends to appear inside slim bodied kit where there is simply no room for a AAA: active stylus pens, pocket laser pointers, small penlights and some compact measuring instruments. Because the size is far less common than AA or AAA, the safest way to buy is to slide the old cell out and read the marking printed along its side, or to check the battery section of the device manual. If it asks for AAAA at 1.5V, this is the cell. If it asks for AAA, this one will not fill the compartment and the contacts will not meet.
One pack holds two cells, which suits the devices that take a pair and leaves a spare where only one is needed. We sell this listing in multiples of five packs, with five the smallest order, so the smallest quantity that leaves us is ten cells. Where a device takes two, change both at the same time and keep them as a set rather than mixing a fresh cell with a part used one. Keep spares in the unopened blister until they are wanted, somewhere cool and dry, and away from loose metal such as keys and coins. It sits alongside our other Energizer alkaline cells in AA, AAA, C, D and 9V sizes, plus Energizer lithium coin cells, if you are restocking a drawer rather than a single device.

Frequently Asked
Is AAAA the same as AAA?
No. A AAAA cell is both narrower and shorter than a AAA, so the two are not interchangeable and a AAAA will not make contact in a AAA compartment.
How many cells do I actually receive?
Each pack holds two cells. The minimum order on this listing is five packs, sold in multiples of five, so the smallest quantity we send is ten cells.
Can these be recharged?
No. Alkaline cells are a single use chemistry, so once a cell is flat it is replaced rather than put on a charger.
What voltage does each cell give?
The pack states 1.5V per cell, which is the standard nominal figure for an alkaline cell of this type and is what most AAAA devices are designed around.
Is an IEC or trade code printed for this size?
The manufacturer does not state a code on the pack or in the specification we hold, so match the cell by the AAAA size marking on your old one.
How should I store the spare pack?
Leave the cells in the sealed blister, somewhere cool and dry, and keep them clear of keys, coins and other loose metal that could bridge the terminals.
