WHAT DOES A FREEZER DO TO A BATTERY?

What's the deal about disposable batteries? Are you supposed to keep them in the freezer or fridge to keep them from expiring? Has anyone tried to see how much longer a cold battery lasts compared to one stored in a room-temperature environment?

How Does Alkaline Batteries Work

You probably already know that extreme heat makes batteries lose some of their power. That's why it's imperative to store the double-A bulk batteries in a location where they remain cool and dry. As much as it is essential to keep batteries from being exposed to extreme heat, it's also crucial not to let them stay too cold, either.

All alkaline batteries contain a cathode which consists of carbon and manganese dioxide. It also has an anode made of zinc metal. It's essentially an electrolyte solution consisting of potassium hydroxide. When a specific chemical reaction occurs, that's when the battery powers a device. The cathode does the work to create electricity when metallic zinc oxidizes.

The extreme cold keeps this process from occurring efficiently. It slows it down, meaning that despite storing batteries in a fridge or freezer, they won't be ready to use right away because they haven't reached the optimal temperature for electrical production.

What About Temperatures Over 100 Degrees Fahrenheit?

Some people believe that storing disposable carbon batteries in the fridge or freezer when temperatures hit over 100 degrees Fahrenheit helps protect their charge. If you opt to buy alkaline batteries instead of carbon, however, you'll already have more power to work with. Superior in design, and with a far longer shelf life than cheaper disposable battery brands, you can store Nangrand battery for up to a decade without them going flat.

There's No Need to Refrigerate Nangrand Alkaline Batteries

With a shelf-life of up to ten years, there is no need to refrigerate Nangrand alkaline C batteries. They have six to nine times the power of carbon batteries, so you eliminate the need for refrigeration immediately by buying our brand as opposed to another. As long as you keep them in a cool, dry place free from water or condensation, you shouldn't have any problem keeping bulk batteries on hand to power all of your electronics, kid's toys, and power tools.

When you have bulk batteries on hand, you're able to refresh all of your electronic devices' power on an as-needed basis. Rather than pick and choose which devices you'll do without because there aren't enough cells available, you can replenish batteries in everything you own. It doesn't cost you as much as it would to buy single packs of batteries, too. The per battery cost for bulk 1aa alkaline battery is far less expensive than buying them in individual packs more frequently.

What High Quality Batteries Provide for You

When you opt to buy the highest quality batteries money can purchase, you're doing yourself a favor. One, you're saving money by not throwing away cheap batteries every few uses. Next, you're creating far less household waste and not putting lead, mercury, or cadmium into landfills where it changes the ecosystem, poisons wildlife, and puts our planet in further peril. Last, but not least, you're keeping all of your tools, toys, and systems up and running so that you can experience a safer and more comfortable way of life.
