AAA battery

The AAA battery (or triple-A battery) is a standard size of dry cellbattery. They are commonly used in portable electronic devices, typically low-drain ones. AAA batteries are single cell and are made in both primary (disposable) and secondary (rechargeable) types.
An AAA battery is smaller than an AA battery. It measures 10.5 mm (0.41 in) in diameter and 44.5 mm (1.75 in) in length, including the positive terminal button, which is a minimum 0.8 mm (0.031 in). The positive terminal has a maximum diameter of 3.8 mm (0.15 in); the flat negative terminal has a minimum diameter of 4.3 mm (0.17 in). Alkaline AAA batteries weigh around 11.5 grams (0.41 oz), while primary lithium AAA batteries weigh about 7.6 g (0.27 oz). Rechargeable nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) AAA batteries typically weigh 14–15 g (0.49–0.53 oz).
