The VARTA RECHARGE ACCU Power AAA is a rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery with a nominal capacity of 800 mAh and an operating voltage of 1.2 V. It is designed as a micro-battery (size AAA, also known as AM4, MN2400, Ministilo, LR03, LR3) and is pre-charged, allowing immediate use straight from the packaging in devices. The batteries are designed for use in standard devices requiring continuous and reliable power supply, without the need for prior charging.
Applications
This battery is suitable for a wide range of everyday devices, including digital cameras, LED flashlights, wall clocks, alarm clocks, baby monitors, game controllers, MP3 players, toys, GPS systems, and wireless mice. The low self-discharge rate enables long-term storage, ensuring that the batteries remain sufficiently charged even after prolonged storage and can be used immediately. Compatibility with all common NiMH chargers ensures flexible use in various environments.
Features and Equipment in Detail
The VARTA RECHARGE ACCU Power AAA features
NiMH technology (Nickel-Metal Hydride), known for high charge and discharge cycle stability. The batteries are
free from memory effect, meaning they can be fully recharged even after partial discharge without affecting their capacity. The
Ready-to-Use technology ensures the batteries are pre-charged and can be used immediately in devices without requiring prior charging.
Technology Explained Simply
The
capacity of 800 mAh describes the amount of electrical energy the battery can store. At a voltage of 1.2 V, this corresponds to an energy of 0.96 Wh. This capacity is sufficient for devices with medium to high power consumption, such as digital cameras or toys, intended for extended operation. The
self-discharge rate is very low, so the batteries retain most of their capacity even after several months of storage. The
operating voltage of 1.2 V is typical for NiMH batteries and differs from the 1.5 V voltage of alkaline batteries, so compatibility with the device should be checked.
Compatibility and Accessories
The battery is compatible with all standard NiMH chargers. Use in devices designed for alkaline batteries is possible, although the voltage difference (1.2 V instead of 1.5 V) may result in reduced performance in some cases.
Installation and Mounting
Installation is done by simply inserting the battery into the device. No special tools or mounting procedures are required. The batteries are supplied in a 2-pack, with the packaging indicating VARTA RECHARGE ACCU Power AAA 800 mAh 2er Pack. The packaging colour is green.
Operational Advantages
The
low self-discharge rate and the
absence of memory effect ensure long service life and reliable performance over many charge and discharge cycles. The
Ready-to-Use function allows immediate use, which is particularly beneficial in emergency situations or when batteries suddenly fail. The batteries are designed for use in standard devices, and their use in devices with high power consumption (high-drain applications) is also possible.
