AAAA vs. N / LR1
Comparing 2 standards across 5 specifications. 3 key differences identified.
A AAAA battery (IEC designation LR8D425) is a 1.5V Alkaline cell measuring approximately 8.3mm in diameter and 42.5mm in length -- smaller than a AAA. It's used in devices with especially tight internal space, such as laser pointers, some styluses, and compact LED penlights.
An N battery (IEC designation LR1) is a 1.5V Alkaline cylindrical cell measuring approximately 12.0mm in diameter and 30.2mm in length -- between a AAA and a AA in size. It was historically common in pagers and remains used in some medical devices and specialty flashlights.
