Highest performance, longest lasting lithium AA battery in economical bulk packaging. Energizer Ultimate AA batteries last up to 8 times longer in digital cameras than alkaline batteries.
Did you know the risk of using substandard AA Lithium Batteries?
Lithium - Light, but Mighty
Lithium is a naturally occurring element – Li – the third one found on the Periodic Table, if you remember your high school chemistry. It is mined primarily from brine deposits in the Andes Mountains of South America, and from the ore of a mineral called spodumene in North America and Australia. Lithium can also be extracted from sea water. In all, more than a dozen countries, from Argentina to Zimbabwe, produce over 6,000 tons of lithium compounds each year.
Lithium is the lightest metal on earth. It also has the greatest energy potential of any solid. In addition, materials coated with lithium-based compounds can withstand extreme forces and temperatures.
With this unique combination of light weight, high energy and temperature endurance, lithium is an ideal material with which to make batteries. Ultralife's 9-volt lithium battery, for example, lasts up to four times longer than alkaline 9-volt batteries, and is the only 9-volt battery warranted for ten-year life in critical applications such as smoke alarms.
Lithium is also the key ingredient in the most common camera batteries.
Duracell, Energizer & Ultralife Lithium Batteries - Serious About Safety
American manufacturers such as Energizer, Duracell and Ultralife, take extensive measures to ensure the proper use of lithium. Because lithium is flammable and requires careful handling, a great deal of planning and technology goes into the safe storage, shipping, recycling, and disposal of the material. BEWARE of no-name lithium battery brands, foreign-made and counterfeit lithium batteries. There appear to be serious questions about the quality of these products. There have been reports of such lithium batteries leaking and exploding in devices.
Alkaline Batteries vs. Lithium Batteries
POWER: A major advantage of lithium batteries vs. alkaline batteries is that lithium batteries last much longer.
PRICE: Alkaline batteries compared to lithium batteries – alkaline cost substantially less than lithium batteries.
VOLTAGE: If you decide to replace alkaline with lithium, its important to check the replacement has both the appropriate voltage and type/size. Energizer e2 lithium AA batteries produce 1.5 volts, so they can be used to replace any regular alkaline AA units in most cases.
OPERATING TEMPERATURE: Lithium batteries perform even in the most extreme temperatures, making lithium batteries perfect for outdoor devices. Lithium batteries operate in extremely cold climates or extremely hot climates where alkaline batteries cease to function.
WEIGHT: Lithium batteries are much lighter than alkaline batteries. This is a great convenience for portable devices.
The Energizer lithium AA battery offers superior performance in digital cameras and any other device that requires AA size batteries. Energizer Ultimate (formerly known as Energizer e2®) lithium batteries are built in a spirally wound construction. This design helps the battery meet the high current drains of many of today's devices better than alkaline batteries. The Energizer Ultimate (formerly known as the Energizer e2®) lithium AA battery is 33 percent lighter than their alkaline counterparts. Energizer lithium AA batteries have a minimum of a 10 year shelf life. Our Energizer Lithium AA batteries are fresh and highly dependable, delivering long-lasting power. Outstanding performance and reliability combined with a great price makes the Energizer Lithium AA battery a great buy and 100% guaranteed.
The Energizer AA lithium batteries perform even in the most extreme temperatures -40° F to 140° F. Weighs much less than other batteries and can be used in place of any standard AA battery. This makes Energizer Lithium AA battery ideal for the most advanced, high-drain devices—digital cameras, personal digital assistants (PDAs), hand-held games, portable CD players and palmtop computers. The long shelf life of Energizer lithium batteries make them the ideal choice in thermostats, or outdoor devices operated in cold climates where other AA batteries cease to function at cold temperatures.
