CR2016 vs. LR41 / AG3
Comparing 2 standards across 5 specifications. 5 key differences identified.
A CR2016 coin cell is a 3.0V Lithium Manganese Dioxide battery measuring 20.0mm in diameter and 1.6mm in thickness with a nominal capacity of about 90 mAh. Its slim profile suits low-profile devices like slim remotes, LED tea lights, and thin calculators, distinguishing it from the thicker CR2032 of the same diameter.
An LR41 battery (also sold as AG3 or 392) is a 1.5V Alkaline button cell measuring approximately 7.9mm in diameter and 3.6mm in thickness. It's a common size for small thermometers, compact watches, and other low-drain miniature electronics.
