A-size batteries are .625 inches in diameter by 1.875 inches high; B-size batteries are .750 inches in diameter by 2.125 inches high. Both sizes are still in use, except they are NOT used for 1.5 volt flashlight cells. I believe that 4.5 volt and 9.0 volt batteries come in A-size and B-size. ==> Larry Lippman @ Recognition Research Corp., Clarence, New York ==> UUCP: {allegra|decvax|rocksanne|rocksvax|watmath}!sunybcs!kitty!larry ==> VOICE: 716/688-1231 {hplabs|ihnp4|seismo|utzoo}!/ ==> FAX: 716/741-9635 {G1,G2,G3} "Have you hugged your cat today?"
