Button Cells & Coin Cells

Button Cells and Coin Cells in Detail

Button Cells and Coin Cells are often the batteries no one sees, until their watch, remote control or car key stops working. Then often follows a panic of where to get a replacement. Simply put, coin cells are wider and slimmer like a coin, and button cells have a narrower diameter and are taller and stockier in appearance. These terms are anecdotal, and there are cells which could be called either.

Each type of coin or button cell has a unique model number. On Battery Station, we list each cell by its most common code, but we also list other manufacturer codes on each product page. Using our search facility and entering the code on the battery, will generally find the product you require. If you are still stuck, please contact us and we’ll do everything we can to help you find the correct button cell, or coin cell.
