Your wireless microphone needs a new 9volt battery, but when you replaced the old battery with a cheap off-brand 9volt battery you suddenly realize that your battery will not fit into your mic. What’s wrong? It’s likely that your 9volt battery is too large. You would think all 9volt batteries would be the same size and fit into your device perfectly, right? But to the surprise of many people, there are very small differences in the size of 9volt batteries, even in brand name 9volt batteries such as Energizer Industrial and Duracell Procell. The Energizer 9volt battery is approximately 1/16″ taller than the Duracell Procell 9volt battery. This plays a significant role in 9volt batteries fitting into a device properly. Most people do not realize there may be a difference in 9volt battery size and a size variation in 9volt batteries can leave many frustrated.

There are indeed ‘battery standards’ for battery manufacturers to follow. The dimensions for 9 volt batteries are H 48 mm × L 25 mm × W 15 mm (1.9 in × 1 in × 0.6 in). However, manufacturers are allowed a small amount of variance when making a 9volt battery. The result of different variances: electronic devices are not always designed with excess space in the battery cavity, resulting in cavity design that will not accept a 9volt battery of all manufacturers. Many of the cheaper, off-brand name 9volt batteries, for example, are too wide for electronic devices. Cheaper batteries are almost always too wide because manufacturers are more likely to have lower quality standards.

How do you decide which 9volt battery is right for your device? Duracell Procell vs Energizer Industrial 9 Volt? A correctly fitting 9volt battery should just drop in the battery cavity. Another helpful tip when replacing a 9volt battery is to stick with the same battery brand so there is no cavity distortion over time and connectivity issues do not arise. If you are using a Duracell Procell 9volt battery, replace that battery with another Duracell 9volt battery. If you are using an Energizer Industrial 9volt battery, continue to use the Energizer 9 volt brand for best performance. Because of the size difference of 9volt batteries, switching between battery brands can lead to damaging the device. To avoid damaging your device, check with the manufacturer’s recommendation for correctly fitting 9volt batteries or call Medic Batteries, we’ll be happy to help.

Buying a 123 3V Battery Forged, Counterfeit, Imitation Could Damage Your Device!

Many people believe that buying batteries for their digital cameras or tactical lights is as easy as 1, 2, 3. The 123 3V battery is readily available online and ranges in price from as little as .85 cents per battery to as high as $8.50 each.

So what’s the difference between a Duracell Ultra 123 lithium battery from a reputable company such as Medic Batteries or any other 123 3V battery you might find? The answer is: QUALITY, RELIABILITY, FRESHNESS and 100% SATISFACTION GUARANTEE!

Reports have been released by US manufacturers stating there have been incidents of the 123 3V battery exploding, leaking, and even catching on fire in popular brands of flashlights (such as Surefire) and other equipment, caused by the use substandard 123 V battery.

The professionals at Medic Batteries we recommend using batteries made in the USA, or made to US standards. The Duracell 123 3V battery, for example, is made in Japan, but to Duracell’s US standards. Duracell and Energizer previously manufactured all of their 123 3V batteries in the US, but both have moved the production of their lithium 123 3V battery to Japan. Buying potentially counterfeit and substandard batteries from unreliable sources can be incredibly dangerous and should be avoided at all costs.

How to avoid dangerous counterfeit and faulty batteries:

· Only buy batteries made in the US, or to US standards set by a respected well-known manufacturer, such as Duracell or Energizer.

· Avoid using batteries that say ‘Made in China’ or ‘PRC’ as these are usually substandard foreign made possibly dangerous products.

· Only buy from a respected company that guarantees the batteries quality and manufacturing standards, such as Medic Batteries where we provide quality products at unbeatable prices with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
