Which Battery Types and Sizes Can You Buy on BatteryStation.co.uk?

BatteryStation.co.uk covers the everyday sizes most households and workplaces need — AA, AAA, AAAA, C, D and 9V — plus coin cells, specialist lithium cells, rechargeable batteries and SLA (sealed lead acid) batteries. If you already know the code printed on your old battery, you can almost certainly match it here; the main exception is built-in or proprietary battery packs, which the site does not appear to list.

Household sizes

These are the standard cylindrical alkalines and lithiums people search for most often:

• AA (LR6) — the most heavily stocked size, with Duracell Procell Constant (box of 10, £3.29), Duracell Procell Intense Power (box of 100, £31.95), Varta Industrial Pro 4006 (box of 40, £9.49), Energizer Industrial (box of 10, £2.49) and Energizer Max (24 and 40 packs).
• AAA (LR03) — Duracell Procell Constant (box of 10, £3.09), Duracell Plus (10 pack, £5.95), Energizer Max (40 pack, £17.49) and Energizer Ultimate Lithium (60 pack, £89.49).
• AAAA (LR61) — Duracell AAAA MX2500, sold in a 2 pack at £1.69.
• C (LR14) — Varta Industrial Pro 4014, box of 20 at £12.75.
• D and 9V — both listed as categories on the site, so you can browse straight to them.

The pattern worth noting: the same size comes in several grades. Procell and Energizer Industrial are aimed at trade and bulk use, while Duracell Plus and Energizer Max are the retail lines. If you are buying for a workplace, the box-of-100 Procell Intense works out far cheaper per cell than retail packs; for a single smoke alarm, a small retail pack makes more sense.

Coin cells and specialist cells

Small-format batteries are grouped by their printed code, which makes matching straightforward:

The CR2450 tray of 150 at £225.00 shows how the site handles OEM and trade volumes — useful if you maintain equipment in bulk, overkill for a single device.

Rechargeable and SLA batteries

Rechargeable batteries have their own section, and SLA batteries are listed as a distinct type. SLA covers the lead-acid blocks used in alarm panels, emergency lighting and similar fixed equipment. The site's industry categories — alarms, security and fire; clinics and hospitals; automotive servicing; agriculture, among others — are the quickest route if you know the setting rather than the code.

How to find your battery quickly

1. Read the code on the old battery (e.g. LR6, CR2032, LR44). This is more reliable than the device name.
2. Search or browse by type using the battery type menu, or go via the industry category if you are buying for a workplace.
3. Check the pack size and grade before ordering — the same size appears in retail packs, trade boxes and OEM trays at very different unit prices.
4. Confirm the voltage and chemistry match the original, especially for lithium coin cells and SLA blocks, where mixing types can damage the device.

One practical point from the site's own delivery terms: orders placed before 4pm qualify for next-day delivery, which matters if you are replacing a battery in a security panel or medical device and cannot wait.

What is not covered

The catalogue is built around standardised battery codes. Rechargeable battery packs moulded to a specific tool or device, and proprietary laptop or phone batteries, do not appear in the listings. For those, you would need the device manufacturer rather than a general battery retailer.

If you are unsure which code you need, the fastest check is the old battery itself — the code is usually printed on the casing, and matching it against the site's type categories will get you to the right product in one step.
