Battery N (or N cell ) is a standard dry cell battery. N-cylindrical N battery with electrical contacts at each end; the positive end has a core or bulge at the top. The battery has a length of 30.2 mm and a diameter of 12.0 mm, and roughly three-fifths of AA batteries.
Zinc-carbon batteries in this type are defined as R1 by IEC standards; likewise, alkaline batteries in this type are designated as LR1 . ANSI sets these batteries as 910A and 910D for alkaline and zinc-carbon chemistry, respectively. Energizer calls this type E90 .
Mercury batteries of the same dimensions are no longer produced because of their toxicity. Former mercury cells such as Mallory RM401, Duracell RM-401, IEC-MR1, etc. Replaced by Kodak KN alkaline.
N-size rechargeable batteries are also available, in nickel-cadmium ( KR1 ) and nickel-metal hydride hydride ( HR1 ). However, this is much more common than other rechargeable sizes. N-Series rechargeable batteries can be charged in AA chargers using emergency adapter (such as small metal slugs or springs). Some universal battery chargers (with spring contacts) can also charge N-size batteries.
Common uses for this battery include small flashlights, radio pocket radio receivers, remote control door bells, glucose meters, desk clocks, wireless microphones, laser pointers, vintage calculators, car slots and movie cameras. However, as technology has improved, many of these devices are now running on button batteries.
The N cell battery has the same size as the A23 battery, which has a 12 V output.
