@mcc@mastodon.social In case you didn’t know, most alkaline 9v batteries are six AAAA batteries connected in series internally. They’re annoying to cut apart, but a lot more common than AAAA at retail.

@bob_zim@infosec.exchange @mcc@mastodon.social I've pulled apart one major brand that does that. Most 9v batteries are more like a stack of little plastic trays or nippless legos.

@rotopenguin@mastodon.social @mcc@mastodon.social While I’ve never personally encountered that style, I have heard of it. The lower terminal surface area would limit the potential discharge rate, but most 9v applications don’t need to support high discharge. Maybe cheaper batteries marketed for smoke alarms specifically?

I know Duracell Ultra 9v batteries are six AAAA cells. All the Energizer 9v batteries I’ve disassembled have been, too.
