Alkaline batteries

Alkaline

— a type of disposable battery (see Cell Type) designed as a superior alternative to salt cells (see the relevant paragraph). Alkaline batteries are much more expensive, but their capacity is much higher. In addition, this technology allows you to achieve good voltage uniformity as you discharge and higher discharge currents. Therefore, for devices with high power consumption (in particular, cameras and flashes), it is recommended to use alkaline cells.
