I bought these batteries for my motion sensor LED lamps, which I have distributed throughout the house. Now these things don't fit, or rather they don't work, because they have no contact and therefore no current can flow.
The reason is the design/dimension of the batteries. All my disposable batteries have a thinner pole and the minus pole is flat like a flounder, instead of being slightly offset as it normally is. Ergo, these batteries are completely unusable for my devices.
Am I really the only one who has such problems? And what can I do? Of course I unpacked everything and wanted to install it, but I've drawn the short straw.

Accepted Answer

I noticed that the rechargeable batteries are slightly thicker than the normal batteries. However, by "slightly" we are talking about fractions of a millimetre. In the case of a template cast to the hundredth, this can be a problem because the bodies do not fit into the shell. I have been using the batteries in various devices for years: Telephone receiver, clockwork, computer mouse, remote controls of HiFi components etc., with me the deviation has never led to complications. But I can understand why there might be a problem with the accuracy of fit in your area of application. I don't see a solution, except that you switch to normal batteries.
