carbon-zinc battery
A primary battery (non-rechargeable)
commonly used in low drain consumer applications (e.g. clocks, calculators,
and garage door openers). Carbon-zinc batteries are available in the same
sizes as the alkaline and manganese dioxide ("AA", "AAA", 9-volt, "C", "D")
varieties. They are one of the most widely used dry primary batteries because
of their low cost and reliable performance. Related category
