We're seeing these go mostly into devices that draw steady, low current—think TV remotes, wall clocks, and basic toys where a consistent 1.5V matters more than raw pulse power.
You're looking at a nominal capacity of 1200mAh under a standard 25mA continuous discharge down to 0.8V, and it uses a Zn/MnO2 chemistry that's mercury-free—so no heavy metal leaching worries. Shelf life sits at about 5 years if stored between -20°C and 54°C, and the aluminum foil jacket actually helps with moisture resistance more than you'd expect from a thin wrapper.
Each cell weighs 11 to 12g, and that thick zinc tube construction isn't just marketing; it's what keeps the anode from cracking if you drop the remote. The SGS and RoHS certs are standard, but we also have the MSDS on file if your lab needs it for shippng documentation.
So the discharge curve is pretty flat for the first 80% or so—you'll get stable voltage until it starts dropping off near end-of-life, which most buyers find beats old carbon-zinc stuff for consistent device performance. It's not suited for high-drain things like digital cameras (for that you'd want lithium), but for its intended use it's basically bulletproof.
Bulk packing is what we usually push for labs—you get them in bags of 100 or 200 cells, no frills, just a poly bag with a desiccant pack inside. Blister packs are an option too if you're putting them in retail displays, but that adds maybe 10-15% to unit cost.
Standerd discharge testing is at 25mA continuous to 0.8V, and we run HPLC on the electrolyte to verify zinc purity—a detail most supliers skip, but it directly affects how long that 1200mAh actually holds up under load.
Our MOQ for the LR03 AAA batteries is typically 10,000 pieces, but we can negotiate smaller trial orders for first-time buyers. Just reach out to confirm.
Lead time is usually 15-20 days after order confirmation and payment. For urgent orders, we can expedite to around 10 days.
Yes, we include RoHS, SGS, and MSDS certificates with every shipment. Just request them when placing the order, and we'll provide the documents.
Absolutely, we can print your logo or design on the aluminum foil jacket. Custom packaging like blister packs or retail displays is also available.
Store them in a cool, dry place at room temperature, ideally between 10°C and 25°C. Avoid extreme heat or humidity to preserve the 1200mAh capacity and performance.
