Description
LR44 is one of those cells nobody thinks about until a set of scales goes blank, and then it is needed the same day. This pack holds twelve Energizer alkaline coin cells, each carrying the two codes printed on the box, LR44 and A76. The LR44 designation fixes both the chemistry and the size, so every cell in the pack gives a nominal 1.5 volts and drops into the same recess as the one it replaces. Alkaline coin cells are single use, which is the trade for their steady output and long time on the shelf.
These are the cells that live inside things you open once a year: kitchen scales, digital thermometers, calculators, laser pointers, small LED torches, car key fobs, tyre gauges, flameless candles and a great many children's toys. Before ordering, prise the old cell out and read the code stamped on its face, or check the moulding inside the compartment. A twelve pack suits a household with several such devices, or a workshop or club where the same small cell turns up in different kit.
The pack prints a three year shelf life, so a card kept in a drawer at room temperature stays useful long after the first cell is taken out. Leave the cells in their card until each is needed: loose coin cells can short against keys, coins or each other. Coin cells are also a swallowing hazard, so keep the pack out of reach of small children. We sell this as one pack of twelve, with a minimum order of one pack. It sits alongside our wider Energizer range, which includes a four pack of the same LR44 cell, CR2032 lithium coin cells and AA, AAA, C, D and 9V alkalines.

Frequently Asked
Is A76 the same cell as LR44?
Yes. Both codes are printed on this pack: LR44 is the international designation and A76 is Energizer's own code for the same alkaline coin cell.
How many cells do I receive?
Twelve cells, supplied together in one retail pack. The minimum order is one pack, so a single order brings you twelve cells.
What voltage does each cell give?
A nominal 1.5 volts, which is what the LR44 designation carries. Check that your device asks for a 1.5 volt coin cell before fitting one.
My device lists a code I do not recognise. Will this fit?
This pack prints LR44 and A76 only. Read the code on the old cell, or moulded beside the contacts, and match it to one of those two.
Can I keep the spare cells for a while before using them?
Yes. The pack prints a three year shelf life, so store the card somewhere dry at normal room temperature and take cells out as you need them.
Can these cells be recharged?
No. Alkaline coin cells are single use, so fit a fresh cell when the old one drops off rather than attempting to charge it.
