hazelm Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 I bought a calculator that came with a zinc carbon battery, which I'd never heard of. I've read notes giving general explanation but they don't mean much to me since the notes use more "foreign" terms. Can someone tell more about zinc carbon batteries? I mean is there anything special I need to know? Also, when this battery dies, can I replace it with an alkaline battery? Thank you. hazel m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanBreeze Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 Zinc-Carbon Batteries have been around a very long time. They are the grandfather of small batteries for portable devices. Here is a link to an informative short read about them. Yes, you can replace them with alkaline batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
