The Eveready 996 is a 6V lantern battery for the big, square torches and lamps that take a 4R25 cell. It’s a cheap, no-fuss way to bring an old lantern, work light or camping lamp back to life. You may also see it sold as PJ996.
This is a zinc chloride, heavy duty type battery with a rated capacity of 11Ah, described as an economic, long-life battery used mainly in the construction industry. That makes it a solid, low-price choice for road flashing lights, skip lights and large lanterns, as well as everyday torches, camping gear and other 6V equipment. It is a single-use battery, so please don’t try to recharge it. Keep one in the shed, the van or the caravan and you’ll have light when you need it.
