# SR1130 battery

**What replaces a SR1130: 389, 390, SR54, SR1130W, SR1130SW, SR1131**

1.55 V silver oxide, 11.6 × 3.05 mm (diameter × height)

The SR1130 is a single-use 1.55 V silver oxide button cell. The codes below are the same physical cell sold under different manufacturer names, and any of them will fit.

## Specification

- **IEC designation:** SR1130
- **ANSI / NEDA:** 1138SO
- **Nominal voltage:** 1.55 V
- **Chemistry:** Silver oxide
- **Size:** 11.6 × 3.05 mm (diameter × height)
- **Typical capacity:** 85 mAh
- **Rechargeable:** No — never charge it

## Codes that mean the same battery

*Different manufacturers, one physical battery. Voltage, chemistry and dimensions all match.*

| Code | Fits? |
| --- | --- |
| 389 | Yes — same cell |
| 390 | Yes — same cell |
| SR54 | Yes — same cell |
| SR1130W | Yes — same cell |
| SR1130SW | Yes — same cell |
| SR1131 | Yes — same cell |
| D389 | Yes — same cell |
| V389 | Yes — same cell |
| 1138SO | Yes — same cell |
| GP389 | Yes — same cell |
| SB-BU | Yes — same cell |

## Codes that look close but are not

| Code | Why it is not a substitute |
| --- | --- |
| LR1130 / LR54 / 189 | The alkaline cell in the same 11.6 × 3.0 mm can, at 1.5 V with a sloping discharge and 80 mAh against 85. Fine in a toy; wrong in a caliper or a light meter, where the reading depends on a stable supply voltage. |
| SR44 / 357 | Same 11.6 mm diameter but 5.4 mm tall. It will not fit, and where three of these stack to make 4.65 V the substitution changes the whole stack. |

> The SR1130 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.

## Common questions

### What is equivalent to a SR1130?

389, 390, SR54, SR1130W, SR1130SW, SR1131, D389, V389, 1138SO, GP389, SB-BU — all the same 1.55 V cell under different manufacturer codes.

### Can I use a LR1130 / LR54 / 189 instead of a SR1130?

The alkaline cell in the same 11.6 × 3.0 mm can, at 1.5 V with a sloping discharge and 80 mAh against 85. Fine in a toy; wrong in a caliper or a light meter, where the reading depends on a stable supply voltage.

### Is the SR1130 rechargeable?

No. It is a primary cell — charging one risks rupture or fire. Rechargeable look-alikes exist in the same size under different codes.
