The 1.5V AA Toshiba Alkaline batteries are a standard Alkaline batteries with no fancy naming to tell you they are something special or different than normal primary batteries for single use. In fact these are the Standard Alkaline batteries from Toshiba, though they also have a lower-end Blue Line Alkaline batteries and higher-end named Alpha Power. The shelf life of the 1.5V AA Toshiba Standard Alkaline batteries is supposed to be 7 years and the expiration date of the ones we used for the tests here is 06-2019. According to Toshiba these batteries are ideal for portable radios, handheld computers, pagers, pocket electronic games etc. Surprising we even found something like a specs sheet for these batteries on Toshiba’s website, though it did not mention anything about expected capacity, you can find the link below.

We have started the test of the 1.5V AA Toshiba Alkaline batteries with a constant current discharge rate of 0.1A here we’ve managed to get 2467 mAh and that is nothing short of great performance at this level of constant current load. Furthermore going at 0.2A the batteries also performed superb, though at even higher constant current load levels their performance is a bit lower than the best performing models we’ve tested so far. So it seems that these Toshiba Standard Alkaline batteries are great for use in devices with lower power requirements, where they can provide the best performance they can. At lower constant current load these batteries were able to outperform the standard Duracell Copper Top Alkaline batteries, though at higher loads the Duracell performs slightly better.

The performance of the 1.5V AA Toshiba Alkaline Batteries in our tests:

– 2467 mAh at 0.1A load
– 1903 mAh at 0.2A load
– 1025 mAh at 0.5A load
– 324 mAh at 1.0A load

– 3.067 Wh at 0.1A load
– 2.286 Wh at 0.2A load
– 1.189 Wh at 0.5A load
– 0.352 Wh at 1.0A load
