Description

The AA NiMH Rechargeable Battery with Tabs (800 mAh) is a rechargeable nickel-metal hydride battery designed for building custom battery packs, replacing compatible rechargeable battery cells, and servicing electronic equipment that uses tabbed AA-size NiMH batteries. Featuring nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) chemistry, this battery operates at a nominal voltage of 1.2 volts and provides a rated capacity of 800mAh (0.8Ah). Its rechargeable construction makes it suitable for compatible battery pack assemblies and specialized electronic applications requiring rechargeable AA-size cells with spot-welded tabs on both ends.

Designed in the standard AA cylindrical battery format, this rechargeable NiMH cell features spot-welded tabs on both ends that allow it to be incorporated into compatible battery pack assemblies. The cell body measures 50.5mm (1.99 inches) in length and 14.5mm (0.57 inches) in diameter; the tabs add length beyond the cell body. Unlike a conventional AA battery intended for direct insertion into a spring-contact battery compartment, this tabbed cell is designed for applications where the battery must be electrically connected to other cells or components through its tabs. Its nickel-metal hydride chemistry provides dependable rechargeable performance and supports up to 1000 recharge cycles under appropriate charging and operating conditions when used with an appropriate NiMH charging system. The battery is suitable for assembling and repairing compatible battery packs used in portable electronic equipment, emergency lighting systems, electronic instruments, and other specialized rechargeable applications.

The AA NiMH 800mAh battery with tabs is intended for battery pack assembly and replacement applications requiring matching cell chemistry, voltage, capacity, physical dimensions, and connection configuration. The spot-welded tabs on both ends provide connection points for appropriate battery pack assembly methods, helping avoid the need to apply soldering heat directly to the battery casing. This battery is not intended as a direct drop-in replacement for a standard AA battery in consumer devices with conventional spring-contact compartments. Always confirm the original battery pack specifications, tab arrangement, polarity, and charging requirements before installation. Use only a compatible nickel-metal hydride charging system. Each purchase includes one AA NiMH 800mAh rechargeable battery with spot-welded tabs on both ends.
