These are packaged as a 2-pack and suit low-drain devices that draw power intermittently rather than continuously, such as wall clocks, small torches, remote controls and basic toys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZinc carbon chemistry provides a lower-cost alternative to alkaline batteries for applications where long shelf life and high-drain performance are not required. The batteries perform best in devices that use power in short bursts with long rest periods between activations, allowing the cell chemistry to recover between draws. Continuous high-drain use will deplete zinc carbon batteries more quickly than alkaline equivalents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach D cell uses zinc chloride electrolyte inside a cylindrical steel can with a positive carbon rod electrode. The 2-pack blister card keeps the batteries protected until needed and the cells carry alternative codes 13G, R20P, 1250 and D for cross-reference with device manuals. The pack dimensions are 120mm wide by 83mm tall by 34mm deep, and the total weight including packaging is 0.22kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (KG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.22\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth (mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePanasonic Heavy Duty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCell Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCell Composition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZinc\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat devices are zinc carbon D batteries best for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eZinc carbon D batteries suit low-drain devices with intermittent power use such as wall clocks, basic torches, remote controls and simple battery-operated toys.
