LR44 vs. 357 Battery

357 Battery

The 357 battery is a tiny battery with many uses. This 1.5-volt size 357 battery is used in watches, medical equipment, laser pointers, and more. Size 357 batteries are silver oxide batteries, while A76 batteries are alkaline batteries.

 

Difference in Features

LR44 Features:

  • Excellent cost performance

High-cost performance has been achieved owing to the use of manganese dioxide as a cathode material.

 

  • Excellent stable discharge and high-drain pulse discharge characteristics

Stable voltage output is available during the high-drain pulse discharge.

 

  • Excellent leakage resistance

Murata-unique sealing structure, coupled with special sealing-material treatment, has helped accomplish excellent leakage resistance.

 

  • RoHS  Directive / European Directives

This product does not contain Mercury(Hg), Cadmium(Cd), nor Lead(Pb), and conforms to EC regulation values. (Directive 2006/66/EC, 2013/56/EU)

The battery pack is excluded from the RoHS directive. (DIRECTIVE 2011/65/EU OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 8 June 2011 on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment)

 

357 Battery Features:

  • Chemical System: Silver Oxide (Zn/Ag2O)

  • Designation: ANSI-1131SO, IEC-SR44

  • Nominal Voltage: 1.55 Volts

  • Typical Capacity: 150 mAh* (to 1.2 volts)
