Description

A C cell is one of the larger round batteries, and this card holds two of them from the Eveready Super Heavy Duty line. The pack states carbon zinc as the chemistry, the traditional dry cell formulation and the reason these sit at a modest price. Each cell gives the standard 1.5 volts that any C-size compartment expects, with the raised positive nub at one end and the flat negative base at the other, so it drops into place exactly as the cell it replaces did.

Carbon zinc suits equipment that draws current slowly and steadily rather than in big gulps. Wall and mantel clocks, radios, remote controls for older sets, doorbell pushes and chimes, a torch kept in a drawer for occasional use, and the battery compartments in many toys and lanterns are all comfortable work for a cell of this kind. Anything that drives a motor hard, runs a bright LED array for hours or fires a camera flash will empty a carbon zinc cell far faster than an alkaline one, so for those jobs the Eveready Gold C in a two pack is the better buy. Everywhere else, the difference you notice is the price.

The pack prints a ready-to-use life of up to three years in storage, so a spare card kept in a kitchen drawer should still be good when something goes quiet. One unit of this listing is a single blister card of two cells, and the minimum order is 24 cards, sold in multiples of 24, which is 48 cells in total. Alongside the C size we also stock the Super Heavy Duty range in AA, AAA and D, so a mixed order can cover most of the round cells a household or a site box gets through.

Frequently Asked

My device asks for an R14 or an LR14. Will this fit?

Yes. R14 and LR14 are both code names for the C size, so the cell is the same shape and the same 1.5 volts either way. The letter difference describes the chemistry inside rather than the fit.

Are these alkaline cells?

The retail pack states carbon zinc, and we have listed them that way. One supplier specification row calls them alkaline, which we believe to be an error in the paperwork; the printed pack is what we go by.

What kind of equipment are they best in?

Low drain gear that sips power over a long period: clocks, radios, chimes, remote handsets, occasional-use torches and many toys. Heavy continuous loads will flatten a carbon zinc cell much sooner than an alkaline one.

Can I recharge them?

No. Carbon zinc cells are single use, so once they are flat they go to a battery recycling point rather than into a charger. Only cells explicitly marked rechargeable should ever go in one.

How long will an unopened card keep?

The pack prints up to three years in storage, so buying a few spares ahead is sensible. Keep them somewhere cool and dry, still sealed on the card until you need them.

How many cells do I actually receive?

Each unit is one card holding two C cells. The minimum order is 24 cards in multiples of 24, which comes to 48 cells altogether.
