Description
This is a pack of four JCB Super Alkaline AA cells, the size most household electronics ask for by name. Each cell gives 1.5V and carries the international code LR6 along with the older MN1500 reference, both printed on the pack, so if the equipment manual or the spent cell in the compartment shows either marking, these are the right fit. Alkaline is the standard single use household chemistry, well suited to kit that draws a steady moderate current and to things that sit in a drawer between uses.
AA is the workhorse size for remote controls, wall clocks, wireless keyboards and mice, kitchen scales, torches, door chimes and the long run of children's toys that arrive without cells in them. Four in a pack covers the two commonest fits: a pair into a remote with a pair held back, or a full set of four into a toy, a clock radio or a lantern. The pack prints an up to 400 photos figure for camera use, without printing the comparison behind it, so read that as the manufacturer's own wording rather than a rating.
One unit of this listing is a single blister of four cells. The minimum order is 10, sold in multiples of 10, so the smallest quantity that leaves us is forty cells: sensible for an office, a workshop, a rental property or a household tired of hunting for AAs at the wrong moment. The pack also carries an asterisked claim of up to seven times more power, again the manufacturer's wording with no baseline printed on the face. We stock JCB cells in AAA, AAAA, D, 9V, LR44 and lithium coin sizes as well, plus a rechargeable AA, if a different size is what you actually need.

Frequently Asked
Will these work in anything marked LR6 or MN1500?
Yes. AA, LR6 and MN1500 are three names for the same 1.5V cell, so any compartment or manual quoting one of those codes takes these.
How many cells do I actually receive?
One unit is a blister pack holding four cells. The minimum order is 10 packs in multiples of 10, which works out at forty cells in total.
Are these rechargeable?
No, these are single use alkaline cells and should not be put in a charger. We list a JCB Recharge AA (HR6) 4 pack separately if you want cells you can top up.
What voltage does each cell give?
Each cell is 1.5V, as printed on the label, the standard nominal voltage for an alkaline AA. Devices asking for 3V or 6V simply take two or four cells in series.
Will these suit a higher drain device such as a games controller?
Alkaline handles moderate and intermittent loads well, which covers controllers, torches, toys and portable audio. For heavy continuous drain, a rechargeable cell usually works out cheaper over time.
