AA battery Varta 1.5V Extra Zinc Heavy Duty — single cell

Varta AA 1.5V Extra Zinc Heavy Duty is a single-cell zinc‑carbon battery engineered for low-drain devices that require reliable, basic power. This AA cell supplies a nominal voltage of 1.5 volts and is intended for everyday household and portable electronics such as clocks, remote controls, simple flashlights, toys and other devices with modest energy demands.

Advantages

This zinc‑carbon cell offers a cost-effective energy solution for devices with low continuous current draw. It provides stable nominal voltage suitable for basic electronics, has a compact cylindrical form factor compatible with standard AA compartments, and is designed for straightforward, immediate replacement. The cell’s construction emphasizes affordability and predictable performance in intermittent-use applications.

Suitable for

• Wall clocks and alarm clocks
• TV and media remote controls
• Basic handheld flashlights and lanterns
• Children’s toys with low power consumption
• Small radios, calculators and similar low-drain electronics

Key specifications

• Cell type: zinc‑carbon (heavy duty)
• Size: AA (LR6 equivalent physical dimensions)
• Nominal voltage: 1.5 V
• Form factor: cylindrical single cell
• Intended use: low-drain, intermittent-load devices
• Storage: store in a cool, dry place; avoid prolonged exposure to heat

How to use

Insert the Varta AA 1.5V Extra Zinc Heavy Duty cell into the device’s battery compartment matching the positive (+) and negative (−) polarity markings. Replace single cells promptly when device performance drops or the device indicates low battery. Remove batteries from devices that will be stored for long periods to prevent leakage and potential damage. Dispose of used cells according to local regulations for battery recycling and waste management.

Usage recommendations

Choose these zinc‑carbon AA cells for devices with low continuous current draw and intermittent operation. For high-drain devices such as digital cameras, high-output LED torches, or modern wireless peripherals, consider using alkaline or rechargeable cells designed for higher current requirements.
