LR920 Battery Equivalent

LR920 is the same cell as 171, AG6, LR69 and LR921, so any of those codes will fit; SR920SW is the same size in silver oxide and holds a steadier voltage for longer.

LR920 equivalents

Direct replacements

The same cell under another code. Any of these fits, whatever the brand.

  • 171
  • AG6
  • LR69
  • LR921

Upgrade or downgrade

Same size, different chemistry. Read the verdict before you buy.

Cell Chemistry Voltage Verdict
SR920SW silver oxide 1.55 V Upgrade Upgrade: steadier voltage, longer life.

Similar size, check the fit

Same diameter, different thickness. These are not drop-in replacements.

Cell Size Verdict
LR45 9.5 × 3.6 mm Same 9.5 mm diameter, but 3.6 mm tall instead of 2.1 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.
LR916 9.5 × 1.6 mm Same 9.5 mm diameter, but 1.6 mm tall instead of 2.1 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.
LR927 9.5 × 2.6 mm Same 9.5 mm diameter, but 2.6 mm tall instead of 2.1 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.
