BATTERY SIZE AND CHEMISTRY
Battery technology is constantly evolving to yield ever more powerful and compact energy sources. Here is some battery data that has been compiled to help you choose which battery you should use when designing a product that uses batteries. Use this data as a reference and always compare your measured results to be sure.
