Good to know

  • AG13, A76, L1154 and G13 are the same alkaline cell. 357, SR44 and 303 are its silver oxide twin.
  • Of the silver oxide ones, 357 (SR44W) is the high-drain version for watches with a light or alarm, and 303 (SR44SW) the low-drain one for plain watches. Either fits.
  • Silver oxide costs more but holds a steady voltage until it's nearly empty. Use it in calipers, watches and meters, where a sagging alkaline cell gives wrong readings.
  • Two LR44 cells stacked make 3 V, which some laser pointers use. They are not a CR2032.

Questions

What is the equivalent of an LR44 battery?

The LR44 is also sold as AG13, A76, 357, SR44, 303, L1154 and G13. 357, SR44 and 303 are the silver oxide version of the same size; the rest are alkaline. Any of them fits.

What size is an LR44 battery?

11.6 × 5.4 mm, 1.5 V. Alkaline (LR44), or silver oxide (SR44, 357, 303) in the same size.

What uses an LR44 battery?

Common devices include digital caliper.

What do Energizer, Duracell, Varta and Renata call the LR44?

Energizer: A76, 303 and 357. Duracell: LR44, D303 and D357. Varta: V13GA, V303 and V357. Renata: LR44, 303 and 357. Other brands are in the table above.

Is a 357 battery the same as an LR44?

Same size and it fits the same devices. The 357 is silver oxide (1.55 V) and the LR44 is alkaline (1.5 V). The 357 lasts longer and holds its voltage, so it's the better pick for watches and calipers. In toys and laser pointers either one is fine.

Is AG13 the same as LR44?

Yes. AG13 is another name for the same 11.6 × 5.4 mm alkaline button cell.

Is A76 the same as LR44?

Yes. A76 is Energizer's name for the LR44 alkaline cell. Varta sells the same cell as V13GA.

Battery Inventory for iPhone and iPad

Never look up the LR44 again.

Battery Inventory remembers which battery every device in your home takes, reminds you when one is due, and counts the spares in your drawer, so you buy the right cell before the old one dies. The finder in the app knows every code on this page. Search any of them, or point the camera at a coin cell to read it.

  • Battery change reminders, free
  • Monthly smoke and CO alarm test reminders
  • A spares drawer and shopping list
  • Cordless tool packs and chargers too

No account needed. Smoke and CO alarm features are reminders only: the app can't see or test your alarms.
