These days batteries are an essential part of everyday life. You can take the energy you need for your appliance everywhere you go. "Mobile energy, anytime, anywhere" is the key. The result of all these technological developments is that batteries now not only differ in terms of size, shape and voltage source. There are also batteries with different chemical compositions and properties, which are vital in determining how they behave and where they are used.

Panasonic Batteries is the world's largest battery manufacturer and is part of Panasonic Corporation, one of the world's leading companies in the field of electronics and electrical products.

The comprehensive Panasonic Batteries offering includes oxyride, alkaline, zinc carbon, rechargeable, photo lithium, silver oxide, zinc air, coins and torches.

Alkaline batteries: "Xtreme Power", specifically for applications that not only require high power and a long life, but also demand high levels of reliability - as is the case for portable cassette players, CD or DVD players, camcorders, electronic flashes, smoke alarms etc. These batteries are produced in a variety of sizes:

AAA LR03
AA LR 6
C LR14
D LR 20
9V 6LR61

A high-performance battery, the Digital Xtreme Power, was developed in Japan at the beginning of 2004 specifically for the latest digital applications. The Digital Xtreme Power is available in AAA and AA sizes. Depending on the type of device being operated and its usage profile, up to three times as many photos can be taken than with conventional alkaline batteries.
