Silver Oxide Batteries

The silver oxide primary battery is used widely in electronic equipment that requires a small compact power source. The high volumetric energy density of the Silver Oxide button cell, and its ability to deliver the energy at relatively high current drains, makes it ideal for miniature devices where space is limited.

The silver oxide battery is also noted for its extremely stable discharge voltage, good shelf life, and ability to operate over a wide temperature range. These unique characteristics make these batteries best suited for applications such as low-power LCD watch and calculator displays, quartz analog watches, and some camera applications.

Features
