Each battery delivers consistent voltage output under sustained load, making the format suitable for devices that draw current continuously rather than intermittently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for security keypads, battery-powered medical instruments, handheld radios, professional torches and portable audio equipment, the Procell Intense range targets commercial and institutional environments where equipment downtime has operational cost. The 10-pack format suits facilities management, maintenance teams and service engineers who stock replacement cells for multiple devices across a site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe alkaline chemistry inside the cell uses a zinc anode and manganese dioxide cathode, which together provide higher energy density than zinc-carbon equivalents and better voltage stability as the cell discharges. Procell rates the Intense range specifically for high-drain applications, meaning devices that draw 100mA or more continuously, as opposed to low-drain devices like remote controls or wall clocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach C cell measures 50mm height by 26.2mm diameter, fitting standard C battery compartments in professional equipment. The cells carry a shelf life of up to 7 years when stored at room temperature, allowing bulk purchasing without concern for expiry during normal stock rotation cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat qualifies as a high-drain device for these batteries?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-drain devices draw 100mA or more continuously. Examples include professional torches, portable radios, motorised equipment, security devices with active sounder circuits, and medical instruments with continuous power draw. Low-drain devices like remote controls or clocks are better served by standard alkaline or lithium cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long do these batteries last in typical professional equipment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRuntime depends on the device's current draw. A professional torch drawing 300mA might run for 8-12 hours continuously on fresh Procell Intense C cells. A security keypad with backlight and sounder might achieve several months. Procell does not publish universal runtime claims because device design and usage patterns vary too widely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan these be used in consumer devices?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, but the Procell Intense range is priced and packaged for professional procurement rather than retail consumer use. Any device requiring C size LR14 batteries will accept these cells, but consumer devices with low or moderate drain (under 100mA) won't benefit from the Intense formulation over standard alkaline C cells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the shelf life?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProcell Intense C batteries carry a shelf life of up to 7 years from manufacture when stored at room temperature in original packaging. The date code stamped on each cell indicates the expiry date, allowing stock rotation in facilities holding multiple battery types.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Procell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51783311819019,"sku":"S30269","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/S30269_1_3c055b00-ac01-43b1-9664-cb674263a101.jpg?v=1750876327","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/procell-intense-c-size-lr14-alkaline-batteries-10-pack","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
