Energizer Max Plus AAA Batteries (LR03) - 20 Pack

These are AAA alkaline cells from the Energizer Max Plus line, supplied twenty to a box. Each one delivers the 1.5 volts standard to an alkaline AAA, and carries the international code LR03, so if the spent cell you are replacing is marked LR03 or AAA it is the same size and the same voltage. The box prints a 12 year shelf life.

AAA is the cell that keeps the small everyday things running: television and set top box handsets, wireless keyboards and mice, wall clocks, digital scales, thermometers, door chimes, bike lights and a good share of children's toys. A box of twenty is aimed at the place where those items gather rather than at a single replacement, which is why the pack is marked as a business pack. An office stationery cupboard, a school, a village hall, a holiday let or a busy family kitchen will work through twenty steadily, and keeping the spares in one place saves the hunt through drawers when a handset dies on a Sunday evening.

One unit of this listing is a box of twenty cells. The minimum order is six units, sold in multiples of six, so the smallest quantity we can send is 120 cells, which suits somebody restocking a cupboard rather than replacing one remote. These are primary alkaline cells and are not rechargeable, so a flat cell goes to a battery recycling point rather than onto a charger. Keep the spares together and away from loose keys and coins, which can bridge the two ends of a cell. They sit alongside our wider Energizer battery range, which covers AA, C, D, 9V and coin cells as well as AAA.

Will these fit anything that takes AAA or LR03?

Yes. AAA and LR03 are two names for the same 1.5 volt cell size, so a device marked either way takes these. Some older labels also print the size simply as AAA on the battery door.

How many cells do I actually receive?

One unit is a box of twenty cells. The minimum order is six units in multiples of six, so the smallest order that can be placed works out at 120 cells in total.

Can these be recharged?

No. These are primary alkaline cells, made to be used once and then recycled. Putting an alkaline cell into a charger intended for rechargeable NiMH cells is not something to attempt.

What does the 12 year shelf life on the pack mean?

It is the period the manufacturer prints for unused cells kept in storage.

How much capacity or runtime do these give?

The manufacturer does not state a capacity figure or a runtime for this pack, so we do not quote one. Runtime in any case depends heavily on what the device draws.
