The Power Of A Quartz Watch: Battery

Anyone who wears a Wrist Watch should know that a Quartz Watches needs to replace the battery regularly, so the battery is still very important for a Quartz watches. Today we will introduce the battery of the Quartz Wrist Watches . In terms of battery classification, there are alkaline batteries LR, silver oxide batteries SR, lithium batteries CR, among which silver oxide batteries are more commonly used, because the voltage characteristics of silver oxide batteries can ensure the accuracy of the quartz movement.

The battery of the quartz watch is not replaced at will, and must be replaced according to the specified model. Take silver oxide battery as an example, it can also be divided into high current and low current output, usually there is an indication on the back of the battery, "SW " is low current, "W" is high current. Most quartz watches use low current. So you can't install the wrong battery, it will affect the normal operation of the watch. The battery quality is different, good quality, long and stable quartz life, (for example, Switzerland, Japan) inferior quality, short life, serious damage to the watch . So dear watch friends, please remember this for yourself.

Another important point is to remove the battery as much as possible for quartz watches that are not worn or unused for a long time. Because batteries have a common problem, there may be leakage and air swelling after a long time, and the electrolyte will corrode the movement and cause parts to rust. According to statistics, the faults of quartz watches are mostly caused by batteries, and it is conceivable how important .
