Re: Batteries for voltage reference


Back in the dark ages when they sold VTVM kits, one of the manufacturers
directed the builder to calibrate the meter by assuming the supplied D cell
was 1.xx Volts.

Thanks. That's probably what I'm remembering. Mine was an Eico.
(I think.)

I measured all the never-used batteries I could find.

1.622 Mar 2014 Safeway AA
1.619 Mar 2124 Duracell AA
1.580 Mar 2007 Safeway AA
1.575 Mar 2008 Duracell AA

1.575 Jan 2002 Duracell D
1.436 Jan 2002 Duracell 9V (8.62/6)

The dates are the expiration date.
