D / LR20 alkaline

D / LR20 alkaline is the alkaline LR20 size. Rechargeable and lithium products can share the format but have different requirements.

LR20DE95MN1300
Answer

LR20, D, E95, MN1300 are the supported exact aliases for one 34.2 × 61.5 mm cylindrical household cell. No other family is treated as an automatic replacement.

Supported application context

  • Household devices specifying this size and chemistry

Application context is limited to the scope stated in Energizer E95 Product Datasheet; it is not a device compatibility claim.

This record describes the alkaline version of the physical format. Rechargeable and lithium products may share a familiar size while using different voltage and charging requirements.

D/LR20 is the widest supported cylindrical household cell at 34.2 mm. Its 61.5 mm height and contact spacing establish a distinct format before chemistry or product performance is considered.

What the code means

LR20 is the IEC-style alkaline identity for this household format; familiar consumer and manufacturer codes are retained as aliases.

Discharge and drain behaviour

Service life is device-, load-, temperature- and cut-off-dependent. A rechargeable or lithium product sharing the physical format is not the same electrical family.

Capacity context: No universal family value; chemistry, load, temperature and cut-off alter service.

Substitution guidance

Use the exact size and chemistry required by the device. Rechargeable NiMH and primary lithium products can share the familiar format while differing in nominal voltage and charging rules.

Not a device-fit guarantee.

Confirm the exact code, chemistry and drain requirement with the device maker. Keep button and coin cells away from children and never recharge this primary cell.
