Duracell CR2016 lithium battery 3 V, pack of 2

Imagine an evening when you're looking for batteries and find exactly what you need — that's what it's like having CR2016 batteries on hand. These small coin batteries are essential for powering your everyday devices. I recommend them because they combine reliability and versatility, and honestly, that's what you expect from a quality battery.

CR2016 technical specifications

The CR2016 is a 3V lithium coin battery, Duracell model DRB20162. It offers a useful lifespan of up to 10 years, making it an economical and durable option. With its lithium technology, it ensures stable, consistent voltage throughout its operating life. Between us, it's the kind of basic but indispensable product you forget about until you need it.

Uses and compatibility

These batteries are suitable for a wide range of electronic devices. You can use them in:

• Remote controls (TVs, air conditioners, gates)
• Car keys and vehicle alarms
• Watches and calculators
• Electronic toys and portable medical devices
• Motherboards and small electronic devices

I consider this model a reliable option for all these uses. Devices requiring more than 3V often use two CR2016 batteries in parallel instead of a single CR2032, offering useful flexibility depending on your needs.

Contents and storage

Each box contains 10 CR2016 batteries, with a pack of 2 boxes available. This allows you to build up a small supply at home without taking up much space. I find this a practical format for anyone who regularly uses devices powered by coin batteries — you'll have enough to last several years without worrying about running out.

Who it's for and who it's not for

Ideal for: Anyone with devices that use CR2016 batteries (remote controls, watches, toys, car keys). It's also an excellent choice if you're looking for a reliable battery with a long lifespan. Less suitable for: If you need AAA or AA batteries, you'll need to look at other sizes. CR2016 batteries are very specific and are only suitable for devices designed for this type of coin battery.

A friend's advice — Always keep a box of CR2016 batteries at home. You'll be surprised how often you need them, and it's so frustrating when a remote control or watch stops working because the battery has run out.
