In general, when people are looking for batteries, they tend to pay more attention to the battery size such as AA, AAA, and so on. However, batteries can also be classified by voltage. If you haven’t noticed the voltage figures on a pack of batteries before, you won’t be familiar with the meaning of voltage and the difference between volts.

But you’re in luck, we’ve put together this article to explain all you need to know about battery voltages. So, next time you’re deciding on what Vapextech batteries to get, refer back to this article, we will help to guide you through the understanding of different voltages.

What is Battery Voltage?

The term “battery voltage” means the amount of electrical power a battery holds, and this power  is measured in volts. The greater the voltage, the greater the electrical potential. For instance, 8.4v batteries have more power than 4.8v batteries.

The number of voltages is calculated by the quantity of cells present in the battery. The inside of each battery holds a group of cells. For example, a fully charged 18v battery contains more cells than a fully charged 12v battery, meaning it’s less powerful than the 18V battery.

Battery Voltages To Choose From

We understand some electronics require a different battery voltage to provide great and long-lasting performance. At Vapextech, we’re proud to supply our customers with an extensive range of battery voltages to suit their requirements. Some of the battery voltages we have stock include:

4.8v Batteries - Many of our 4.8v batteries are low self-discharging batteries, giving an initial charge and a higher residual charge throughout their lifetime.

6v Batteries - We stock a range of 6v batteries for many applications, from cameras to airsoft guns.

6.6v Batteries - Our 6.6v batteries are specifically designed for receivers and transmitters.

7.2v Batteries - 7.2v batteries are one of our popular choices of airsoft batteries. They are available in different battery pack configurations and fittings depending on your requirements.

7.4v Batteries - Our range of 7.4v batteries are suitable for airsoft, model, and more general applications. All of our 7.4v batteries are designed, manufactured, and tested to the highest standards to ensure that you receive long-lasting battery power at a great price point.

8.4v Batteries - We stock a selection of 8.4v in a range of different types including mini, standard and 2 leg - specifically designed for use in airsoft guns. 

9.6v Batteries - Our production plant tests over 100,000 batteries a day to ensure we can bring you the highest quality 9.6v batteries available. 9.6v batteries don't quickly decrease in voltage even with heavy use.

9.9v Batteries - We stock a wide range of 9.9v batteries for both domestic and commercial uses. Many of our 9.9v batteries are LiFe batteries which are designed for high power use such as in airsoft guns.

11.1v Batteries - 11.1v batteries are one of our highest voltage batteries. Generally, they are fitted with a mini tamiya and are wired for airsoft use. Our 11.1V batteries are available to buy singularly or in bulk, whichever suits your needs.
