Overview
Households running wall clocks, radios and flashlights get a low drain AA battery made with carbon zinc chemistry. Eveready makes it ready to use from the pack and lists no added mercury or cadmium.
For devices that sip power over months, a carbon zinc cell does the job without paying for more advanced chemistry. High drain gear such as cameras or game controllers will run it down quickly, and voltage and capacity are not listed.
Who it's for
Homes with many low power gadgets that need occasional battery swaps can stock these. Owners of digital cameras or toys with motors should choose alkaline or lithium cells instead.
Pros and cons
- Suited to clocks and radios
- Long shelf life in storage
- No added mercury or cadmium
- Leak resistance backed by IEC tests
- Carbon zinc drains fast in high drain devices
- Capacity and voltage not listed
- Meant for low power devices
Performance notes
Run time depends on how much current a device pulls: low drain clocks run for a long time, while motors and flashes drain carbon zinc cells quickly. Shelf life holds charge in storage for years, so spares stay usable. Leak resistance rests on standard IEC service tests.
