ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o nā pākahi alkaline ma mua o nā pākahi zinc-carbon ma muli o kekahi mau kumu:

ʻO kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona maʻamau o nā pihi alkaline1.5 V AA pākaukau alkaline,1.5 V AAA pākaukau alkaline.Hoʻohana maʻamau ʻia kēia mau pākahi i nā ʻano mea like ʻole e like me nā mana mamao, nā mea pāʻani, nā kukui uila, nā lekiō lawe lima, nā uaki, a me nā hāmeʻa uila ʻē aʻe.

1. ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi o ke ola ʻana: ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi o ke ola ʻana o nā pākaʻikaʻi alkali e hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā ʻenekini zinc-carbon, no laila kūpono lākou no ka mālama ʻana a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā mea hoʻohana pinepine ʻole.
2. ʻOi aku ka ikaika o ka ikehu:ʻOi aku ka nui o ka ikehu kiʻekiʻe o nā ʻōhua alkaline, 'o ia ho'i, hiki iā lākou ke hā'awi i ka mana hou aku no ka manawa lō'ihi i ka ho'ohālikelike 'ia me nā pākiki zinc-carbon.ʻO kēia ka mea i kūpono iā lākou no nā mea hoʻoheheʻe kiʻekiʻe e like me nā kiʻi kamepiula a me nā mea pāʻani uila.
3. ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hana ʻana i nā mahana anu: ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā pākahi alkaline i nā mahana anuanu i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā pākini zinc-carbon, hiki ke hoʻohana pono i kekahi mau noi, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma waho a i ʻole ka hoʻoilo.
4. Hoʻemi ʻia ka pilikia o ka leakage: ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻoheheʻe ʻia nā pihi alkaline i ka hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā pākini zinc-carbon, e kōkua ana i ka pale ʻana i nā mea hana a lākou mai ka pōʻino.
5. Aloha kaiapuni: He haʻahaʻa loa ka hopena o ka nohona o nā ʻaʻa alkaline i ka hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā ʻeke zinc-carbon, no ka mea, hiki ke hana hou ʻia a hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ke kuleana.Hoʻohui ʻia, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o nā mea i hoʻohana ʻia i nā pākahi alkaline i ke kaiapuni.

Ma ka holoʻokoʻa, hāʻawi kēia mau mea i ka manaʻo e ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā ʻāpana alkaline ma mua o nā pākini zinc-carbon e pili ana i ka hana, ka lōʻihi, a me ka hopena o ke kaiapuni.
