]An '''N battery''' (or '''N cell''') is a standard size of ]. An N battery is cylindrical with electrical contacts on each end; the positive end has a nub or bump on the top. The battery has a length of 30.2 mm and a diameter of 12.0 mm, and is approximately three-fifths the length of a ].

A ] in this type is designated as ''R1'' by ] standards; likewise, an ] in this type is designated as ''LR1''. ] designates this battery as ''910A'' and ''910D'' for alkaline and zinc-carbon chemistries, respectively. ] calls this type ''E90''.

] of the same dimensions are no longer manufactured because of their toxicity. If your requirement is to replace a Mallory RM401, Duracell RM-401, IEC-MR1, NEDA 117M, 910M, Eveready E401, E401N, E401 N, Energizer EP401, EP401E, NR1, R401, or RP401, you may consider using the Alkaline Kodak KN in its place.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.batteriesinaflash.com/special-application/energizer-e90-alkaline-1-5v-batteries-n-cell-e90-lr1-mn9100|title=Additional N Size Battery Sizes - BatteriesInAFlash|accessdate=February 8, 2011}}</ref>

Rechargeable N-size batteries are also available, in ] (''KR1'') and ] (''HR1'') chemistries. However, these are far less common than other rechargeable sizes, and may be charged in a AA charger using a makeshift adapter (such as a small metal slug or a spring)<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.robotroom.com/NCell.html|title=Rechargeable N Size Battery - Robot Room|accessdate=October 10, 2010}}</ref>.

There are newer chargers that work well for charging the N size rechargeable batteries now. A universal battery charger will charge several common size batteries and chemistries. This includes batteries like 1/2AA, 1/3AA, 1/3AAA, 2/3A, 2/3AA, 2/3AAA, 4/3A, 4/5A, 4/5AA, 5/4AAA, A, AA, AAA, N Series

Common uses for this size of battery include some small ]s, remote control ]s, ]s, small desk ]s, wireless ]s, and ]s. This battery size must also not be confused with a similar-sized ], which is 12 volts and not 1.5 volts.
