The 145U battery is no longer manufactured. It was popular in the Soviet Union. Now, it's a museum piece. The battery generates constant electricity even after 40-50 years.
Main characteristics of element 145u
Voltage 1.6 volts.
These batteries were produced in 1973.
Capacity is about 8.9 Ah.
It is considered dry. galvanic cellIt cannot be charged since it is not a battery.

It was used for flashlights and other lighting devices. It was also used in various radio homemade devices.
Shelf life is 1.5 years.
Electrochemical system Manganese dioxide. They are zinc salts.
The resistance of the external circuit during discharge is 20 Ohm.
Used at temperatures from -40 to +60 degrees.
This power source is housed in a rectangular, elongated container. The housing is made of zinc and serves as the negative pole. On top is a cardboard box with informational labeling. This label provides information on voltage, production date, shelf life, and capacity. A paper insulator is used to insulate the poles from each other.
Thus, the 145U battery was an excellent means of maintaining the operation of flashlights and other devices.
