As many of you know, consumer batteries from the Panasonic brand have become difficult to obtain in existing sales channels due to disruptions at the distribution levels by the end of 2025. Therefore, the availability of batteries from this brand in Poland and other EU countries has become uncertain ...

It often happens that when analyzing the technical data of a battery we are interested in, we see, for example, 2 different capacity values expressed in milliampere-hours - mAh. Where do these differences come from? What is typical capacity, minimum, maximum, nominal, rated? ...

The modern everActive battery, which is the equivalent of a typical 9V block battery, has a declared capacity of 500 mAh, but the inquisitive will notice that it consists of two Li-ion cells with a capacity of 500 mAh each.So shouldn't the total capacity of this battery be set at 1000 mAh? ...

We are used to comparing the value of capacity, expressed in milliampere-hours [mAh], which is given in virtually all commercially available batteries.However, on disposable batteries, in particular typical LR6 AA, LR03 AAA batteries, specialized batteries, or those dedicated to hearing aids, such i ...

Powerbanks are devices that have achieved great popularity in a few years. Manufacturers outdo each other by adding new features to devices, increasing their power, increasing their capacity, etc. The mentioned capacity of the powerbank is the main criterion for users according to which they choose ...

This time in our lab, we decided to thoroughly test the capabilities of block alkaline batteries, Ni-MH rechargeable batteries, and Li-ion in the 9V size (the designation for the alkaline battery is 6LR61). The test involved measuring capacity, energy, and recording discharge curves at currents of 5 ...

If we want to replace disposable batteries with Ni-MH rechargeable batteries, it is worth following a few rules that will allow for the full utilization of the capabilities of the new cells. Adhering to a few simple principles will enable you to optimally, economically, and ecologically use your re ...

This is a question that arises very often in our daily work. It is generally believed that Ni-MH batteries cannot replace disposable batteries due to their lower voltage. However, this applies only to certain devices - usually those with low power consumption and typically in configurations where ba ...

Every European manufacturer is obliged to provide reliable information regarding the capacity of batteries.The technological maximum limit of currently achievable capacities for Ni-MH batteries is about 1100 mAh for R03/AAA ('small batteries') and about 2700 mAh for R6/AA ('regular batteries') - alt ...
