Codes that mean the same battery

Different manufacturers, one physical battery. Voltage, chemistry and dimensions all match.
Code Fits?
189 Yes — same cell
AG10 Yes — same cell
LR54 Yes — same cell
LR1131 Yes — same cell
L1131 Yes — same cell
V10GA Yes — same cell
GP189 Yes — same cell
G10A Yes — same cell
SG10 Yes — same cell
390A Yes — same cell

Codes that look close but are not

Code Why it is not a substitute
SR1130 / 389 Silver oxide in the same can, 1.55 V flat. Preferred in calipers and meters.
LR44 Same 11.6 mm diameter but 5.4 mm tall against 3.0. Devices that stack cells to reach a voltage are the usual place this goes wrong.

The LR1130 is a primary cell and must never be put in a charger. Charging a sealed primary battery builds gas pressure inside a can with no vent designed for it, which is how they rupture or catch fire. Rechargeable look-alikes exist for several sizes and carry different codes — check the code, not the shape.

Where it turns up

  • Laser pointers and pen torches
  • Digital calipers on a budget
  • Toys, watches and calculators
  • Electronic candles

Common questions

What is equivalent to a LR1130?
189, AG10, LR54, LR1131, L1131, V10GA, GP189, G10A, SG10, 390A — all the same 1.5 V cell under different manufacturer codes.
Can I use a SR1130 / 389 instead of a LR1130?
Silver oxide in the same can, 1.55 V flat. Preferred in calipers and meters.
Is the LR1130 rechargeable?
No. It is a primary cell — charging one risks rupture or fire. Rechargeable look-alikes exist in the same size under different codes.
