You maybe should ask the manufacturer of the product it goes in for a
current recommendation.

You haven't given enough info to really pin down what you have, but
maybe this will help.

An EVEREADY # E94 (USASI Designation - L80) is 1 11/32" diameter (same as
a "D"), but is 1 13/64 overall length.

Ask for EVEREADY's "Battery Applications - Engineering Data" handbook.
