# SR721SW battery

**What replaces a SR721SW: 362, 361, SR58, SR721, SR721W, AG11**

1.55 V silver oxide, 7.9 × 2.1 mm (diameter × height)

The SR721SW 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:** SR721SW
- **ANSI / NEDA:** 1158SO
- **Nominal voltage:** 1.55 V
- **Chemistry:** Silver oxide
- **Size:** 7.9 × 2.1 mm (diameter × height)
- **Typical capacity:** 27 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? |
| --- | --- |
| 362 | Yes — same cell |
| 361 | Yes — same cell |
| SR58 | Yes — same cell |
| SR721 | Yes — same cell |
| SR721W | Yes — same cell |
| AG11 | Yes — same cell |
| D362 | Yes — same cell |
| V362 | Yes — same cell |
| 1158SO | Yes — same cell |
| GP362 | Yes — same cell |
| SB-BS | Yes — same cell |

## Codes that look close but are not

| Code | Why it is not a substitute |
| --- | --- |
| LR721 / LR58 / 162 | Alkaline at 1.5 V with about half the capacity and a drooping voltage. |
| SR726SW / 397 | Same 7.9 mm diameter, 2.6 mm tall. Too tall for a 362 compartment. |

> The SR721SW 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 SR721SW?

362, 361, SR58, SR721, SR721W, AG11, D362, V362, 1158SO, GP362, SB-BS — all the same 1.55 V cell under different manufacturer codes.

### Can I use a LR721 / LR58 / 162 instead of a SR721SW?

Alkaline at 1.5 V with about half the capacity and a drooping voltage.

### Is the SR721SW rechargeable?

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