| Cell | Size | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | 5.8 × 2.5 mm | Same 5.8 mm diameter, but 2.5 mm tall instead of 3.6 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact. |
About the 10 cell
Activate by removing the tab; not a substitute for alkaline/silver cells of the same size.
On the shelf it is sold with a Yellow tab on the pack : the tab seals the air holes, and the cell starts working, and running down, the moment you pull it off .
