The AA battery is the most widely used battery in the world and can be found in hundreds of thousands of devices. IEC codes for AA batteries include the popular LR6 for AA alkaline batteries and HR6 for NiMH rechargeable batteries. The normal voltage for these batteries is 1.5V, while rechargeable batteries generally provide 1.2V. The new AA lithium batteries provide a much higher capacity for a slightly higher price. Introduced in 1907, the AA battery size was standardized by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1947, but had been used in flashlights and electrical novelties for some time before formal standardization. The ANSI and IEC battery nomenclature give various designations for cells of this size, depending on the characteristics of the cell and the chemistry. Each AA battery is 51mm long and 14mm in diameter. The formats in which the AA battery is available are alkaline batteries, saline batteries, long-life and rechargeable lithium batteries of different capacities. AA alkaline batteries have a storage life of around 6 years, while AA lithium equivalents last up to 9 years before use. Rechargeable AA batteries are now available in NiMH with capacities up to 2850mAh and are also available in new "pre-charged" technology that allows you to use them, right out of the box.
