Specifications AG5
Specifications are what every owner of a portable electronic device needs to know if they need to replace their batteries with their own hands. These parameters include:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Basic designation | AG5 |
| View | Manganese-alkaline |
| The form | Tablet (coin) |
| Capacity | ~ 58 mA / h |
| Voltage | 1.5-1.55 V |
| Analog AG5 | Read more HERE |
| Diameter | 7.8 mm |
| Height | 5,4 mm |
| Weight | ~ 0.94 gr |
Also, the positive characteristics of a battery of this type include a small self-discharge (about 2% per year) and a large range of operating temperature (from -30 ° C to + 60 ° C)
Battery Application
It can be used in any devices with low power consumption. Most often, such an element can be found in the electrical circuits of the following devices:
- Hours.
- Calculators.
- Medical products.
- Children's toys.
- Sensors of security and fire alarms.
Due to its compact size, this element will continue to be used by various manufacturers of miniature electronic devices.
Analogs of the AG5 battery
The use of analogues makes it possible to restore the device's performance when it is not possible to purchase the original AG5 battery. Such products are fully consistent with this element in shape and voltage, but may vary slightly in power and life.
You can replace the following analogues:
- G5
- 193.
- 393.
- LR48.
- 393A.
- CX193.
- GP93A.
- LR754.
- LR754W.
- SR754SW.
The listed battery models are interchangeable, so if one of the listed items is installed in the electrical appliance, you can always replace it with a standard AG5 battery.
Can I charge the AG5
The AG5 cell is not a battery, so it is impossible to restore its performance using a charger operating from a 220 Volt network. The use of other folk methods also does not allow to obtain stably positive results.
If it is necessary to provide a device that runs on an AG5 battery with a rechargeable current source, then you can choose a battery of a suitable size, and if this is not possible, then remake the electrical circuit to work on a different type of battery.
Popular manufacturers and their features
When purchasing products from well-known manufacturers, you can not worry about the quality of products, but the cost of such batteries can be significantly higher than that of little-known brands. Most often you can find the following brands on store shelves:
- GP.
- Varta.
- Seiko.
- Videx.
- Renata.
- Huyndai.
- Camelion.
- Smartbuy.
Products of these brands can be purchased both in conventional and online stores.
What to look for when purchasing
When buying, you should first pay attention to the labeling. The designation is applied both to the packaging and directly to the battery case. In the latter case, as a rule, only the voltage, the type of element and the name of the manufacturer are indicated, on the packaging you can find more information regarding the parameters of the battery.
Products should only be purchased with an expired shelf life, otherwise you can get a battery that does not work even half the set time.
