Electric/electronic devices, designed to run on 3 volts (traditionally 2 AA, AAA, C, D alkaline batteries), are quite prolific around the world. Some devices are troublesome to swap batteries on - the time/date must be re-set, or they may be in a difficult to access location. Some devices are designed to operate on 3 volts minimum, and don't work well at all on the 2.4v output from a pair of traditional rechargeable batteries. In this case, users are forced to continue buying and discarding/recycling single-use alkaline batteries. Alternatively, the device may be replaced, with one that works better on rechargeable cells. Either route here results in material being discarded, likely ending up in a landfill.","Page image":"File:Dlbrinks 3v lion.jpg","Page keywords":"3D printing, alkaline replacement, batteries, electricity, lithium ion, osat","Page language":"en","Page license":"CC-BY-SA-3.0","Page title":"Use Li-ion Batteries Instead of Alkaline","Page views":"1372","Page year":"Tuesday, 01-Jan-19 00:00:00 UTC","Project authors":"User:Dlbrinks","Project cost":"1.37","Project status":"Designed, Prototyped","Project thumb":"https://www.appropedia.org/w/images/thumb/d/d7/Dlbrinks_3v_lion.jpg/330px-Dlbrinks_3v_lion.jpg","Project was made":"1","Project was replicated":"","Project year":"Tuesday, 01-Jan-19 00:00:00 UTC","Modification date":"Tuesday, 18-Jun-24 22:38:13 UTC"}
