Quick answer: An alkaline battery dry cell is a single-use 1.5 V power cell. This is the standard C size, 26 x 50 mm, used in torches, flashlights and other battery-operated equipment on wards and in clinics, where a spare stock of cells keeps portable devices working. Lab Exports supplies it as a reseller from Delhi for hospitals, clinics and medical colleges.

Uses
C cells sit between the small AA cell and the large D cell. Their larger volume stores more energy than an AA, so they are chosen for devices that draw a steady current for long periods, such as torches, flashlights and other portable equipment used on night rounds, in ambulances and in areas where mains power is unreliable.
In an alkaline cell, zinc powder reacts with manganese dioxide in a potassium hydroxide electrolyte. Compared with older zinc-carbon cells, this chemistry gives more capacity and holds its voltage better under load, which means a brighter torch for longer. The IEC designation for an alkaline C cell is LR14.
Store the cells in a cool, dry place, replace all the cells in a device at the same time, and take them out of equipment that will be put away for a long period. Alkaline dry cells are not rechargeable and should be disposed of according to local rules for used batteries.
