- When buying a battery, it should be remembered that the voltage error here is 0.05 V. It absolutely does not affect the performance. It also cannot be called marriage. The rated voltage of the battery is 1.5 V.
- Due to their small size, the batteries do not have high power, but they have a current strength of 0.22 mA.
- The electrical capacity is 110 mA / h. This is worth remembering when installing in various devices. In powerful gadgets, the power consumption time will be small.
- Battery weight is 3 g.
Application
Often, manufacturers of various devices where it is necessary to use ag13 batteries indicate this in the operating instructions. Depending on the power of the electric gadget or device, the number of batteries varies from one to five.
