NationMaster - Encyclopedia: AAA battery

An AAA battery is 44.5 mm long and 10.5 mm in diameter, weighing around 11.5 grams. Output of alkaline batteries in this size is 1.5 volts, 900 to 1,155 mA·h (3240 to 4158 coulombs). Modern nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries of this size can store about 800 mA·h, with an output of 1.2 volts.

	The key breakthroughs for me were to use 3 AAA batteries, vs the 4AA’s that came with the Solar Panel because they were a better balance of weight to the right amount of power and milliamps.
	This little portable device will charge up the battery of any device that can use the USB port as a charger, all that is required is that the device has a jack similar to the head phone jack port that can be found on the seat of an aircraft.
	As a back up there is space for two AAA batteries which mean that you can even use it for a quick charge even when there is no head phone jack available.
