377 Battery Equivalent

377 is the SR626SW cell: 1.55 V silver oxide, 6.8 × 2.6 mm, so anything marked SG4, 376 and SR66 is the same battery and will fit.

What the 377 code is

377 is one of the three-digit numbers Energizer and Renata use for silver-oxide watch cells. The digits encode nothing about the size, which is why a 377 and its IEC name look unrelated.

The IEC code for the same cell is SR626SW: silver oxide, 1.55 V, 6.8 × 2.6 mm.

377 is the low-drain number for SR626SW: built for a steady trickle, such as a plain quartz watch movement. The same case size is also sold as 376, the high-drain number. Both are 1.55 V and both fit the same holder.

Upgrade or downgrade

Same size, different chemistry. Read the verdict before you buy.

Cell Chemistry Voltage Verdict
LR626 alkaline 1.5 V Downgrade Works, but runs out sooner. Avoid in watches and medical devices.

Similar size, check the fit

Same diameter, different thickness. These are not drop-in replacements.

Cell Size Verdict
SR616SW 6.8 × 1.65 mm Same 6.8 mm diameter, but 1.65 mm tall instead of 2.6 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.
SR621SW 6.8 × 2.1 mm Same 6.8 mm diameter, but 2.1 mm tall instead of 2.6 mm. Only if the holder fits; thinner cells can lose contact.

377 questions

What battery is 377?
377 is the SR626SW: a 1.55 V silver oxide cell, 6.8 × 2.6 mm, with a typical capacity of 24–27 mAh.
Is 377 the same as SR626SW?
Yes. They are two codes for one cell, so a pack marked either way holds the same battery.
Is 377 low drain or high drain?
377 is the low-drain number for SR626SW: built for a steady trickle, such as a plain quartz watch movement. The same case size is also sold as 376, the high-drain number. Both are 1.55 V and both fit the same holder.
What can I use instead of 377?
Any code in the direct replacement list above. LR626 is the same size in another chemistry: Works, but runs out sooner. Avoid in watches and medical devices.
What voltage is 377?
1.55 V, the same as any other SR626SW.
