Batteries LR41

LR41

— the LR index denotes compact 1.5 V “coin” batteries made using alkaline technology. These are simpler and more inexpensive analogues of silver-oxide cells of the SR series (it is also “three hundredth”, a typical example is 357, it is also SR44). LR batteries have a relatively low capacity, they are prone to a rapid voltage drop as they are getting discharged, and they do not handle high load currents well. On the other hand, such cells are noticeably cheaper than silver-oxide ones, and they are the best option for devices with a even low energy consumption.

Specifically, LR41 batteries are 7.9mm in diameter and 3.6mm thick. Other variants of their name are V3GA, AG3, G3. This is one of the smallest sizes in this series; silver oxide analogues of such batteries are 384 (low discharge power) and 392 (high power).
